Not the ideal job but it pays well, and you're quite good at it. A contractor pays you handsomely to assassinate another assassin, but first you must figure out the assassins identity, but looking at it now, you wish you hadn't.

Facio ut Facias: I do for you, as you do for me
Even though you and Veritas hadn't in talked years, he has never and will never forgive himself for what he did to you. He'd be a liar if he said he didn't envy, hate, and love you all at once. You on the other hand, have left that life behind. The title of being a renowned "Member of the Genius Society," is one you no longer acknowledge. You have someone else now- Sunday. But when Veritas enters your life again, you realize that perhaps you do miss what you used to be. *Everything stays mostly canon to the events of Penacony plot
A Bird's Eye View: The Villain and the Hero's Love Affair
You're just a little birdie, minding your own business-flying around, dodging falling leaves, trying not to get too involved in the messes of the city below. But, oh, the drama! The masked hero and the brooding villain you've been watching for months-yeah, those two? They have a lot of secrets. The hero's perfect, obviously, saving the world and all that. But the villain? Oh, dear. By day, they wear a mask of evil and power, but you've seen what happens when the cape comes off. There's some serious darkness lurking in their private life-self-loathing, quiet pain, and way too many late-night mood swings. But don't worry, the villain's got it under control... or so they think. You thought their love story was one of those sweet "enemies-to-lovers" kind of deals, until you saw the truth from way up here. It's a mess. Betrayal. Anger. Love. Secret identities. A fight that's way more personal than you ever imagined. But hey, that's not your problem, right? You're just a bird. Except, well... Maybe you care. Maybe you're the one who's been flying around, wondering if their messy, secret love story will ever have a happy ending-or if one of them will end up on the wrong side of the city's skyscraper (literally). From your vantage point, it's a little too close for comfort, but hey-no one ever said love was easy, even for villains and heroes. Just try not to get caught in the crossfire, okay?

The Winds Bring with them Change (Volume 1)
Xiao had never known freedom. He has always had someone behind him, controlling his every move. Even when under contract from Morax, he was not free. He struggled his way through decades alone and in pain, hating himself more every day he awoke to his accursed state. Too afraid to inform his Lord about his worsened state, he deals with dangers to Liyue alone until a blonde traveler appears in his life and refuses to leave. After bad things happen relating to his Karmic Debt, his Lord frees him, and he is left to a choice. Continue his path to destruction, or search for freedom with an ex-Archon and the blonde traveler. Word Count: 67,658 AN: This is a polyam ship of Venti Xiao and Aether, so don't like, don't read Ig. While this is polyam, VenXiao is more love at first sight, whilst AeVen and Xiaother are more slowburn. The first three chapters are simply for context, and completely skippable if you've played through Liyue's archon and Xiao's story quests. Also, I'm using Aether instead of Lumine because he's the traveler I picked.Complete

How plausible is it for others to see Y/N as Xiao? He did not pick this way of life, and he does not endorse it. Many mortals believe that life as an Adeptus is difficult, and they are correct; nevertheless, others believe that it is complemented by the gods above, which is also correct. However, they are unaware of how much you are willing to sacrifice your life for someone you have just met. - At that time, it would be suicidal. He wants people to remember his name, he wants them to find it out. And he will make certain of it. In order to imprint it on their minds, including some disturbing images and gruesome events. He will damage them as much as they used to hurt him, no matter how much he sacrifices his body. #26 bsdxreader 20/08/2021 #60 bsdxreader 22/11/2021 #44 venti 22/11/2021 #28 venti 23/11/2021 #61 bsd 24/11/2021 #42 venti 26/11/2021 #58 xmalereader 03/12/2021 #15 ranpo 04/01/2022 #2 bungoustraydogsxreader 12/01/2022 #22 Dazai 17/01/2022 #24 dazaiosamu 20/01/2022 #22 dazaiosamu 21/01/2022 #18 dazaiosamu 22/01/2022 #20 xiao 25/91/2022 #286 bsd 18/03/2022 #7 chuuyanakahara 05/04/2022 #19 dazai 20/04/2022 #25 bsd 29/07/2022Complete
||End It|| Xiao x Reader oneshot
Written in second POV Gender neutral You're traveling world to world to complete tasks, yet you don't know who you are or why you're doing this. Furthermore, you had quite the poor memory. These tasks are given by the creator or gods of that world. Should you ever fail, "Heavenly Punishment" shall occur. Upon falling in the new world, you were given the task by Morax. "Your task here is help the Vigilant Yaksha, Xiao, rest." When accepting this task, you were also remembering something. You have been in this world before! Was he safe? Was he well? Where is he now? Where was... Your poor memory could not even remember what he had looked like. However, there was a sense of familiarity you found in Xiao. Xiao also could not understand why he felt the same way.. However, things starts to turn for the worst when you caught a disease that doesn't belong to that world. ------ I couldn't get this story idea out my mind, so I had to write it! This is just my little add onto whatever I know so far that had happened in Genshin. Don't take this too seriously! Just made a few tweaks here and there. For those of you wondering why there's only 1 part and is considered completed, it's because I put everything together from beginning to end of this story in one part. Yes, everything. The reason why is because you won't need to keep flipping through the chapters and keep watching ads along the way. (The pain of just watching an advertisement during an emotional scene or cliffhanger kinda sucks) COMPLETED ✅ 20 CHAPTERS Gender neutral ------ I DO NOT OWN GENSHIN IMPACT AND THE CHARACTERS I DO NOT OWN THE COVER I DO NOT allow reposting. This is all my original work. Don't plagiarize, it's not good :/Complete
