(Story on-going) Blood binds; in the Abyss, it congeals into chains.
Aether journeyed through the five great nations of Teyvat, encountering countless souls-forming friendships, forging alliances, and clashing with adversaries. Through it all, he remained grounded, modest, and quietly yearned for a serenity uniquely his own.
He found that serenity, surprisingly, in Skirk, the enigmatic mentor known as Childe's master, the Sinner's Pupil. He never imagined she would grant him peace, nor that she shared his quiet longing.
Perhaps it was finally time to slow down, to gently reflect alongside someone who genuinely understood him-someone whose soul resonated with his own, even as the Abyss stirred beneath their feet.

An Autumn Confession
Aether never expected this confession to happen this way. Not with him breathless and sweaty, his hair unkempt. Not with his sweetheart looking equally wild, with hair filled with confetti and eyes red from an overflow of emotions. He didn't expect a garden of roses around them with the autumn sun calmy setting and illuminating Childe's face in the most perfect way possible. Aether expected something simpler and usual, instead of this whimsical and cinematic confession, yet here he was. He was about to take a giant leap of faith... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Time for some Childe x Aether high school romance.

"Whenever I'm with you" - Xiao x Aether || GENSHIN IMPACT
Xiao has been going through some tough times, until he met his former classmate, Aether. He got comfortable with him pretty quickly, but later on he notices he's been catching strange feelings around him. Will he take his chance, or let it go and forget about them? === [TW]: there will be mentions of the following: fighting, suicide/suicidal thoughts, depression, panick attacks, drinking, threatening, manipulation, angst, mentions of gore, hallucinations, self-loathing, and topics along those lines. It's not too heavy in my opinion, but read at your own risk. There will be no NSFW shown. This is a modern AU about Xiao dealing with his crush and his depression, but other POV's will be shown. I'm not English. I apologize if there's spelling errors or weirdly constructed sentences. I don't own Genshin Impact, nor the characters used in this story. I got the cover from art of @man_goose on twitter! https://twitter.com/man_goose?t=V0jqoydMnriSbYkWdQ1Yww&s=09 COMPLETED May 1st 2022 - September 19th 2023Complete
