Summary
The battle against the Abyss has ended, for now. Mavuika and The Captain have a moment to themselves in the Speaker's Chamber after sending Paimon and The Traveller off to bed, and the topic of their earlier duel comes up--and the suggestion to do it again, for practice (just for practice, no other reasons at all). As their sparring raises the temperature in The Speaker's Chamber, the clothes begin to come off--and one thing leads to another.

Summary
As Lantern Rite arrives, Xiao is found exhausted and spent by Qiqi of Bubu Pharmacy, who brings him back to Liyue. Upon awaking, Xiao quickly makes his exit and returns to Wangshu Inn, where Venti is waiting for him on the balcony. Xiao isn't in the mood to party, but maybe a chill hang-out would help him relax. Venti knows just the thing to help Xiao relax and recuperate, and as they both get comfortable, they begin to reflect....
---
"“Wait….” he said. “I… would you like to come in?”
“Oh-ho, changed your mind, eh?” Venti asked. There was a small gust of wind and a rustle behind him, and then Venti’s slender hand delicately touched the small of his back, before slipping around his waist.
...
Xiao took a strained breath, his shoulders rising against Venti’s chest, and Xiao’s fingers found Venti’s arms.
“Will you give me the gift of working some of the burden out of your shoulders?” Venti asked softly.
Xiao nodded, almost imperceptibly."

Summary
“Miko dipped her fingers into the oil–it smelled sweetly of jasmine–and leaned forward and gently ran her fingers along Ei’s shoulders, feeling the soft, warm skin under her hands. It had been centuries since she last gave her friend a massage after a battle, and at first it felt strange, and unfamiliar.
....
“Miko,” she asked, swallowing the last of the dango and reaching for another skewer. “Why did Lumine start to say something about you calling me your god? And why did you stop her?”Miko’s hands froze on Ei’s back.”
A hurt/comfort fic about yearning, touch as a love language, desperate devotion, and being very bad at actually telling your friends you love them. Set immediately after Imperatrix Umbrosa Act II: Transient Dreams, Ei is badly hurt and in need of soothing, so Yae Miko takes her to the Narukami Shrine’s private bathhouse for a hot bath and a shoulder massage.
