Summary
A siren’s song is a destructive tool, able to fell even the strongest of men and drive them over the edge of insanity, craving to hear it just one more time. Yet this very same song gives the siren life; a reason for it to continue to exist in this cruel world. If a siren were to stop singing, they might as well be dead.
So what then is Venti - forced to lay low in Liyue, exhausted deep to the bone, and yearning for a home he left behind - if he refuses to sing?

Summary
Working remotely in a seaside cottage to the rolling ocean waves and the briny winds - a quiet life away from his closest friends and the bustle of Liyue - was not how Xiao envisioned his life going a year ago.
Nor did he expect to be the sudden owner of a top-of-the-line android who may or may not have the advanced cognitive abilities of a human mind stuffed inside an inorganic body.

Summary
Venti should have expected that honoring his former master by taking on a part of his appearance would cause confusion about his true identity amongst all manners of people and creatures who have heard of him. He doesn’t mind being called ‘Barbatos’ so much as he did before he became a full-fledged hunter.
Or so he likes to tell himself, until a particularly long hunt drags out every ounce of self-doubt from the depths of his consciousness and leaves him shaken.
Luckily, Xiao is there to remind him of who he really is.

Summary
In a cruel but inevitable twist of fate, Xiao (infamous amongst Celestia’s cupids for failing to find love for every single one of his hundreds of assignments, mind you) is assigned a mission to find love for an incubus (you know, an entity not usually known for romance) with the caveat that failure will result in his likely demise.
He might as well prepare his angel-shaped coffin now.

Summary
Between unbearable nightmares, dissipating ancient seals, and a budding infatuation with the lonely Yaksha residing in Wangshu Inn, Venti was already not having the best time post-gnosis.
The addition of a Xiao that is slowly losing himself is definitely not helping.
(Or: Xiao reverts back to his original form due to unfortunate circumstance and Venti desperately tries to handle the myriad of emotions that follows.)

Summary
Dean’s sitting at the kitchen table with Sam when his phone rings. Jody’s name flashes across the screen and he considers not picking up. It’s not like Dean doesn’t want to talk to Jody, it's just that he can’t bear talking to anyone these days.
“Hi, Jody,” Sam says.
“Howdy, boys.” She asks them to take over a case. Something about werewolves. Dean doubts they will, Sam hasn’t let him pick up a gun in months, not since their last hunt.
Jody’s voice cuts through the phone. “Alright, if you boys don’t wanna take the case, I’ll see if Castiel will, but I think he’s helping Claire in Colorado–”
Dean doesn’t hear a damn thing after that, and by the looks of it, Sam doesn’t either. For the first time in days, Dean opens his mouth and speaks. “Cas is alive?”
Jody’s voice is quiet on the other end. “He didn’t tell you?”

Summary
Wealthy, handsome, and very single Dean Winchester wanted to be CEO of his family's wine business. But in order to be considered for the position, he signed a contract with a clause that he had to be married wholeheartedly for at least a year by the eighty-fifth anniversary of the company, which was when his grandfather would name the next CEO. Guess who put it off until the last minute? But hey, he already arranged to marry one of his employees, no problem...well, no problem until she didn't show up, anyway.
The random employee he dragged along to witness the wedding had a solution.
