Why Not?
Rated G, Modern AU, Meet-Cute, Airports
ONE SHOT
When Venti spots a handsome stranger in the airport, he figures he might as well introduce himself. It’s not like he’s got anything better to do anyway. His flight’s massively delayed and his phone’s not giving him enough of a distraction anyway. What could go wrong?

Whoops, There Goes My Heart
Rated T, College AU, Getting Together, Miscommunication + Pining
Chapter 8/8, COMPLETE
A simple little compliment shouldn't affect Venti so much, it's not like no one's ever complimented him before, but there's no denying he's absolutely affected by the sudden entrance of a certain tattooed athlete into his life. Xiao had only spoken one short sentence, and that was all it took.

Rated T, College AU, Established Relationship, Halloween Fic
ONE SHOT, Sequel to 'Whoops, There Goes My Heart'

The Care and Tending of a Monster With the Common Cold
Rated T, Eldritch Venti, Human Xiao, Getting Together, Sick Fic
ONE SHOT
What does one do when your slightly off putting and slightly unnatural roommate (who you kind of sort of maybe might have a crush on) comes down with a cold? Xiao doesn’t have any kind of idea, but hopefully if he gives Venti the same treatment Guizhong gave him when he was a child, some good might come of it.

Or, how Venti is always, always the healing Xiao needs, when he least expects it.
Of The Half-Witch and his Bard
Rated M, Fantasy AU, Half-Witch Half-Fae Xiao, Human Venti
Chapter 4/23 IN PROGRESS
To say that Xiao was a bit of a hermit wouldn't be entirely out of line. He didn't leave the forest. He didn't partake in social niceties. His guests were more often than not entirely unwelcome. He preferred stretches of silence that could last long weeks, or sometimes even months at a time. But it wasn't so bad. He had his contracts to tend to, duties to perform that made his long years of solitude fulfilling. Xiao was content in his seclusion. But then, on another quiet day among many, one youthful bardling stumbled his way into his forest and Xiao couldn't help but wonder if his life would ever be quiet again.

Rated E, Modern AU, Roommates!, Top Xiao, Bottom Venti
ONE SHOT
Warnings: Non-monogamy, BDSM undertones, Mildly Dubious Consent due to Alcohol Consumption
Venti doesn't have too many friends in Liyue, let alone friends he could ask to crash with when he finds himself suddenly out of a home. But he takes a risk and asks Xiao anyway, and is pleasantly surprised when he's welcomed inside with little request for clarification. Inevitably, one night turns into a week, which turns into a month, which turns into even longer than that, and Venti and Xiao find themselves confronted with a lot of shifting feelings along the way.
He Makes Me Bloom
Rated E, Band AU, Getting Together, Top Xiao, Bottom Venti
Chapters 12/12, COMPLETE
Warnings: Smoking, Depression, Anxiety, Too Many Feelings, BDSM
If you told Xiao five minutes ago he was about to join some enthusiastic stranger’s band, he probably would have laughed. Even though he pretty much never laughed. If you told him right then, right after it happened, he might have still laughed. This wasn’t his life, and he had no idea who was driving it anymore, but now he was in a band and the frontman could only be described with one word in Xiao’s mind: trouble. Oh yeah, and Trouble (spelled V-E-N-T-I) has an odd habit of making Xiao hallucinate. There’s that too.
Rosé & Bubblegum
Rated E, Director/Actor AU, Porn With Feelings, Top Xiao, Bottom Venti
ONE SHOT
Warnings: Feminization, Jealousy, Exhibitionism, BDSM
Xiao and Venti may just be the entertainment industry’s worst kept secret, with their sneaking around and obvious shared hickeys and suspiciously aligned free time, but at least they were keeping some semblance of privacy. Well, they had been, but on the night of the New Years’ Eve Black and White Ball Venti seemed determined to push all of Xiao’s buttons for the entire industry to notice. Not that Xiao minded much. If Venti was that determined to be ruined mid holiday party, who was Xiao to deny him?

ONE SHOT
Warnings: Exhibitionism, Altar Sex, Sacrilege & Blasphemy, AFAB Venti, CNC
A night full of nostalgia inside the Church of Favonius takes a turn for unfiltered hedonism, and one anemo archon finds out just how good it can feel to venerate someone else under the careful attention of one Liyuen adeptus. Venti hadn’t exactly been expecting to see Xiao on this night, let alone learn so intimately the yaksha’s take on self-indulgence, but he certainly wasn’t going to complain about being on the receiving end of it.

Rated E, Tattoo/Cafe AU, Top Chongyun, Bottom Xingqiu
ONE SHOT
Warnings: BDSM, Mild Exhibitionism, Bloodplay, Piercing Kink
Chongyun was a person of simple taste. He liked his job at Xiao's tattoo parlour, he liked plain iced coffee, and he liked the pretty barista who served him that plain iced coffee, even if sometimes it came out… wrong. It was starting to get a bit suspicious. Still, he could hardly hold it against Xingqiu when it meant Chongyun got to see him twice in a day.

Rated E, Band AU, Transmasc Scara, Dom Scara, Sub Kazuha
ONE SHOT
Warnings: Angst, Hurt no Comfort, Toxic as fuck Relationship, Heavy BDSM
Scaramouche shouldn’t have been spinning plans as soon as he read about Kazuha’s return to Inazuma City, with his new life in his new band and their first tour. His feelings still tasted bitter even after all this time. Still, Scaramouche had wondered if it wasn’t an opportunity he could take advantage of. And he swore he wouldn’t let himself be vulnerable with the poet again, but with his hands thoroughly tangled in the blond’s soft locks of hair, he can’t help but think how much he’d missed this part of their dynamic.
