To sum it up, Venti grew up constantly being praised for his voice and his parents eventually sorta forced him to become a singer. Whilst Xiao enjoyed streaming. But on one unfortunate day someone catches them having a nice friendly outing who knows what they'll have to do after that? also for the sake if my happiness why not make Childe and Zhongli his parents. Also don't come at me but wouldn't it be cute if Xiao and Ganyu were siblings? whatever im putting it in. Also this was a random 3 am idea and honestly I put absolutely not effort into some of this

Cover image made by: "yeetoldy" on Twitter The story takes place in a highschool. Xiao is a new kid, anti social jerk. Venti had been to the school for a while, he's always been bullied but still tries his best to make friends with who he can. Ships so far (more may be added) beneficial (Bennet x Fischl) Xingyun (Xingqui x Chongyun) Chili (Zhongli x Childe) Kaebedo (Kaeya x Albedo) Jeanlisa (Jean x Lisa) Kazuscara (Kazuha x Scaramouche) Cynari (Cyno x Tighnari) There may be some violence and swearing but ill give a warning! I may be slow at updating, it depends on how busy I get. I will not apologize for taking a while on an update if I get busy, so sorry in advance. I don't own the character unless I saw otherwise in story, I just own this story and not the game!!

xiao is an introvert. a blank sheet. venti is an enigma. a mystery. what happens when the two become neighbours? soft! venti x xiao this is just my xiaoven version of my phan version‼️

Some boy named Xiao was surrounded by a bunch of fangirls once he entered his first time in a highschool academy, but only got his attention to a specific person that was meters away from him. Is this love at first sight? MODERN AU - fluff story xiaoven (main ship) zhongchi/chili (part of one of the chapters) yantao (part of one of the chapters) ganqing (barely in the story, but gets mentioned) !!PLEASE READ!! (Cover by @yeetoldy in Twitter) This was made for those who are MADLY in love with the ship due to intense cringe while writing this whole thing. If you don't ship them, I recommend you to stay away before even starting to pick up a fight in the comments. Thank you ♡
