Summary
They play it.
Then they play it again.
The recording crackles with static, like the signal was barely strong enough to push through. It’s not just the white noise of a bad connection in the background. There’s the sound of something groaning, like metal that wants to give way to gravity. Something else that makes Jesse think of smoke passing through ventilation.
Once, just before the audio cuts off, Jesse would swear he hears laughter.

Itto laughs his stupid laugh. “Okay,” he says, chortling.
“I’m not joking,” Gorou says.
Itto laughs again. But then he meets Gorou’s eyes, and abruptly stops laughing. “Gods,” he says. “You’re serious?”love in the time of advice columns.

Summary
Hanzo Shimada is an expatriate student of the Fine Arts, attending college in what he assumes to be a reasonably sedate corner of the American southwest. Jesse McCree is an occasionally leather-clad NPS ranger whose duties extend somewhat further than shooing lost tourists back onto the clearly marked hiking trails. Something weird is going on in the desert south of Santa Fe and their lives unexpectedly come together in the middle of it.

Summary
The pink-haired woman turns away, hands folded underneath her chest as she feigns shyness. "What is she like?"
The apple is sweet. The inside of the fruit is soft, yielding compared to the defensiveness of the skin. "Perfect. Commanding. Often, I cannot walk in a perfect line after she is done. More often than that, I cannot walk."
"Better than I?"
A pause.
"Yes."
"Oh."
Sara takes another bite of the apple, the juice running down her fingers. It is sticky, sweet, and cloying on her lips as well.

A diplomatic meeting.

Summary
Morax, a rock. Rex Lapis, a god. Zhongli, trying to learn to be a man. Some history and bits and pieces of who Zhongli used to be and who he might become.
Violence, some body horror/gore, too much made up mythos of Teyvet/Liyue. There are some 1.1 spoilers but so much of this is also fabricated, I’m not sure if that helps or not.

Xiangling scales entire mountains to satisfy the palettes of her two pickiest customers.

Summary
“Okay, you’re going to have to take a few steps back,” Venti says and immediately, the woman shifts her right leg backwards, foot in the air, and the bard quickly amends, “Oh! Not literally, haha. I just meant—” He pauses. What did he mean? “Dumb question, but who is Venti?”
The look that is exchanged between the two strangers says more than words could. Venti’s gut drops, his stomach twisting. A cold sweat forms on the back of his neck.
“Lord Barbatos,” the woman begins again, more hesitantly, “You showed up here late last night. You were speaking nonsense and had a terrible wound on your head. It has since healed. However…” She trails off.
The man is the one to continue on her behalf, “Where did you go after menacing my tavern?”
in which venti suffers from a temporary bout of amnesia, stays with diluc, and is confronted with the one thing he's avoided for centuries. or, in other words, zhongli and venti have a misunderstanding and finally talk about it. all of it.

Summary
There’s a beach. People throw their garbage there, old appliances and broken things, empty bottles, wrappers and trash. It piles up so high you can’t see the ocean.
Izuku stops there every day after school.
It’s not on his way home. It’s not even a detour, it’s in entirely the opposite direction.
He doesn’t want to go there, but he does.
He walks out of school, bag heavy with books and mind heavy with thoughts, intending to walk straight home, and his feet take him to the beach.

Summary
"Are you... planning to stay here the rest of the night?"
Venti blinks. "Yes? Is there something wrong with that?"
There is a lot wrong with that, Diluc thinks. "Where will you sleep?"
"What a strange question," Venti laughs, as if it is the funniest joke he’s ever heard. "The breeze around Windrise is more than enough comfort for me."
--
Diluc landed himself into a relationship with Venti, and thinks he may just be a little in over his head.

Summary
Albedo rushes up to her, easily picking her up and heading towards her room. “Hey! No, let me go! Mister Swan said Kaeya was hurt!” She protests, and almost kicks at Albedo’s chest before he puts her down swiftly in the middle of her room.
Albedo runs a hand through her hair, and she can feel it shaking. “Stay here. I’ll be back for you in a bit, yeah? Just gotta take care of some things. Can you do that for me?”
“Okay.” Obviously, she's not going to do that for him. Klee is now on a quest to one, find kaeya and see what happened to him, two, fix him up, somehow. That's what a little sister should do for her big brother.
-
Alternatively, Kaeya gets stabbed, Klee thinks she's a god, which is definitely Venti's fault, Albedo is stressed but put together, and Diluc is in desperate need of therapy. Klee takes it upon herself as a god to see to it that Kaeya heals, her big brothers stay safe (and in love), and Diluc gets the help he desperately needs with working things out with Kaeya.
Oh, and Childe is there... for a bit.Series

“In Inazuma, they would call you a tsundere,” Childe tells him. Xiao chokes on his food.
“What the fuck?”
