You sat upon the highest hill top of Seirei Island, gazing to the shore line. There was almost no wind here to rustle the naku weeds or the grass. The water was relatively quiet in its gentle ripples, but much louder in the cackling of electro. In fact, the loudest thing in the island was the occasional hillchurls and the mechanical workings of Khaenri'ah’s machines.
It was comforting here. It reminded you of some of the world you have visited previously.
You slowly lowered yourself to the ground, all you energy finally leaving you as you limbs began to the limp and heavy. Being so far away from the stars and space was starting to take a toll on you. Despite you being native to the earth, you were far more aligned with the physiology of stellar beings. It was a miracle you hadn't died during your 500 year slumber.
But now, you were starting to get more tired than usual. Apparently, you were starting to get tired by human standards as what would have been a simple jog for you was now enough to have you catching your breath with your human adventuring partners. You wondered if you were starting to truly become human again.
That revelation would have made you happy under normal circumstances. But for the first time in your life, you didn't need your physical humanity. You were now destiny bound to fight gods, monsters, and whatever else this world wanted to throw at you so you could return back home. If you were a human doing all of it, you'd have no chance.
A frustrated groan was bubbling in your chest, and when you tried to let it out, it came out as a helpless whimper. You were too tired to use a simple waypoint, let alone sit up.
You managed to shift your head up to the sky, watching the dark plumes of electro swirl round and round. It was hypnotic in the way it lulled you towards sleep. Your eyes were getting heavier as you decided you would rest here, at least for a little bit.
"...bloom..." You imagined the distant call of your beloved Venti as the wind tickled your ear. It only made you relax more.
"...windbloom..." You heard it more clearly this time, making you mumble out Venti's name. You then felt a tug on your heart, pulled by the feeling of longing. You must have missed him enough to start imagining him being at your side.
"Windbloom? Can you hear me? I haven't spoken to any one through the wind like this in centuries, especially so far away."
The clarity of his voice in the wind that blew gently by your ear, was enough to make your eyes shoot open. "Venti? Is that really you?"
He let out is signature laugh, warming your heart. "Indeed it is, my muse. I'm having my words be carried from Mondstat to Inazuma by the wind. Perks of being the Anemo Archon!"
You hummed, watching the green glow of anemo energy that gently swirled around you. "I agree, it’s quite useful."
"But, the wind also tells me you’re not doing too well." As soon as you got over that reveal of information, you frowned. "Are you okay?"
"I'm okay." You assured him, trying to steady your voice. "I'm just... tired."
There was silence for a short moment. You knew he knew there was more than simple fatigue at play.
Venti spoke up first. "Can you teleport to Windrise? Or at least, enter the Serenitea pot? ... I just want to be besides you as you rest to make sure you’re okay."
Those words were enough to make your heart flutter, but your frown only deepened when answered him. "Thank you for your worry but, I feel as though I can barely move my arms or legs." You closed your eyes again, unable to keep them open anymore. "I promise, I'll rest for an hour then make my way into the pot. I just don't have the energy right now."
"...I see." Was his response.
It was clear he was unsatisfied, but not much could be done. You were simply too far away-
You felt the wind, warm and gentle, brush against your lips. The same breeze brushed against your cheek, your forehead, and every inch of your face. It was feathery, like Venti's kisses. It made you chuckle the same way as you would when Venti would kiss your face like this from time to time.
The wind carried his laughter. "This is my first time doing this, but it seems to be working. So, how do you like kisses from afar, my muse?"
"They're nice." You nodded, savouring the breeze on your cheeks. "But I wish I could kiss you back as well."
"While I was hoping the power of love through my kisses would give you the strength to teleport to me, I also imbued you with so anemo power. You should feel a lot lighter. How is it, my love?"
You took a deep breath before managing to flex and lift your arm up. Yes, your arm still ached, but the wind helped you pushed your arm up so it wasn't using as much energy as it normally would.
Venti's little wind kisses, may have played a bigger part in your ability to now move your arm though. "It worked," You began trying to get back on your feet.
Venti wasn't in front of you, but you could hear the smile in his voice. "I'm glad. Teleport into the Serenitea pot. I'll be there to make sure you get the rest you need."
There was a lot of things racing in your head: words of gratitude, questions about how he could do this, questions about how exactly he knew you were in such a state. But you decided to settle on three simple words. "I love you."
You knew he was beaming brightly when he replied. "I love you too."
These kisses posts were meant to headcannons, but apparently I am incapable of writing bullet point ideas without making a whole fic out of them.
