    Summary

    Xiao scoffs and turns his back. “The point remains,” he snaps. “I have no intention of bonding with anyone. Ever.”

    “Awww, that’s too bad!”

    Every thought comes to a crashing halt. The cheery voice washes over him like a cleansing breeze, the ever-present hiss and mutter of his karmic debt falling silent in the presence of divinity.

    Then there’s a blur of green, the smell of a wheat field under easy sunlight, and a chirp of “Hold this!” Xiao finds himself reflexively obeying: his arms come up, and into them is dumped a….burlap sack, of…apples? He looks up—

     

     

    As the last of the yaksha, Xiao is living on borrowed time, a weapon steeped in blood and ancient sins. When the past begins to catch up with him, he's saved by a bard who might need him just as much.

    Summary

    “I didn’t know”, he starts.

    The man doesn’t respond but Venti can feel those gold eyes burning into the side of his face.

    “I wouldn’t have been here if he told me he had a boyfriend.”

    Venti can see the shine on his cheeks, the red eating at his eyes.

    The hurt.

    Summary

    Somewhere, over the course of the years, Xiao's room in Wangshu Inn has become Xiao and Venti's room. There's traces of Venti all around; from his cape hanging over the back of the chair, to the hair ties on the dresser and the flowers on the windowsill. His lyre is left on the bed, and Xiao doesn't think he'll ever get used to it.

    Sometimes, all it takes is two thousand years.
