True Archons-discontinued

Xiao-pt 2

Though all that's happened,you're just glad xiao is not caught up over the whole thing

Paimon:
Well then,let's go send letters to the other archons!

Traveler:
"W-wait up for us paimon!"

Xiao:
Heh..

For a moment he couldn't move his legs,even if xiao had accepted venti's death it was still as hard as any other he faced

Xiao:
You didn't have to do that you know..

Venti:
~

Even if the archon's physical form is gone venti remained one of the thousand winds.well at least with less power then he usual has

Traveler:
"Xiao! Are you coming or what?"

Xiao:
Ah! Coming!

Venti:
?

Xiao:
You stay here,I still need to talk to you about something

The wind spirit just watched as his friend walked away,but he didn't mind because as usual,the geo archon was always keeping watch

Traveler:
"You couldn't wait a few more minutes?"

Paimon:
Aha..well at least I did half of them,you have less work so be thankful

Traveler:
"Yeah...thankful is definitely a way to put it"

Xiao:
With all the archons in the same place I'm guessing the qixing will be watching,knowing their identities or not

Paimon:
I'm sure once we explain ningguang will understand!

As they finished the letters and head to the adventurers guild Zhongli meets back up with the group

Zhongli:
If you're here in the city I presume it went better then expected

Xiao:
It's nothing,I just have a different view on the situation than I usually would..

Traveler:
"Besides I'll get you almond tofu later~"

Xiao:
Wait really!? I-I mean thank you for treating me

You can barely see him trying to hide a smile,as you and paimon send the letters the two stood back to talk

Zhongli:
Are you going to tell me why you're hiding your feelings?

Xiao:
What? I told you,I'm fine and I mean it

The archon simply motioned behind him as venti revealed himself,this is of course making a stressed xiao more flustered

Xiao:
You told him didn't you!?

Venti:
~~

Zhongli:
Xiao...I won't try to pry anything out of you,you know I'm not like that but at least be honest with the traveler

Xiao:
...I can't

Zhongli:
And why not?

Xiao:
....it's complicated.of course I'm still caught up over venti's death,but after so many losses I started to wonder...

The group turns to look over at the traveler and paimon

Xiao:
..If the present is so much more important to me,then why am I so hung up on the past?
