    Summary

    "A contract?” said Venti, “Did you just lock me, god of wind and freedom, into a contract?”

    Somewhere between the first glass of wine and the last, between a solemn oath and an offering to a god, Venti gets bound in a contract to protect and care for the last of Alberich line. Sure 1000 years ago Venessa had banned him from babysitting, but he can handle this freshly traumatized seven year old.

    Crepus would beg to differ. He takes one look at this “irresponsible alcoholic teenager” playing parent and decides he needs to step in.

     

    OR: Papa Alberich gets lost and ends up leaving Kaeya with a friendly bard instead of at the winery. Venti adopts Kaeya…and Crepus adopts them both.

    OR: The Anemo Archon, a Khaenri’ahn spy, and a Fatui Harbringer all think they have figured out what is going on but they are all playing very different games.

    Summary

    "I could top!" He defends sharply, "I could! Just. Neither of you have ever asked."

    Minho rubs Seungmin's lower back placatingly, like Seungmin was a toddler throwing a tantrum, "Babe, it's okay, really! Jisung and I are more than happy with our sex life as it is, you don't have to top just because you think it's what we want."

    Jisung nods enthusiastically, patting his stomach in a way Seungmin assumes is meant to be comforting. It does nothing but fuel the fire building in his gut; makes him feel smaller, silly, dumb.

    Seungmin sputters a little, "I just--I could top either of you if I wanted to." A pout graces his face as he folds his arms across his chest, lying through his teeth. "It can't be that hard."

    Something dark flickers in Minho's eyes.

    -

    Seungmin flies too close to the sun and faces the consequences.

    Summary

    If Minho were different, maybe he and Seungmin could have a real chance. Maybe they could be sweet and soft and happy together, and Minho could lie in bed with butterflies in his stomach instead of this awful, all-consuming guilt. Maybe Minho wouldn’t have to be so scared of the moment this all blows up in his face — because he knows it will come eventually, he just doesn’t know when.

    Minho's held out as long as he can, but every rope has an end.
