    Summary

    Every year, Tighnari disappears for two weeks. He doesn't tell anyone where he is going, or why, and whoever dares to ask him about it is silenced with a pointed glare. This year, Cyno runs into him by accident.

    Even from the distance Cyno can see the dilation of Tighnari’s pupils, the flush creeping all the way down Tighnari’s neck. Vaguely he registers that Tighnari is not wearing his usual ranger outfit but loose-fitting white robes instead, bound around his waist but slipping off his shoulders, showing more skin than they’re hiding. Tighnari’s hair is matted with sweat, sticking to his skin.

    Summary

    The storm dies down into a gentle breeze as the glow in the archon’s eyes softened. “What are moments of reprieve that I’ve given you amidst eons of constant suffering?”

    “It’s because it only lasts mere moments that it means everything to me.” It comes out in a hush whisper, a quiet confession only meant for the wind. “You could be anywhere else right now, and yet you choose to come back. I’ll never know when the next time will be. So these moments… mean a lot.”

    - - -

    or

    the anemo archon is a free-spirit, whose temperament is as carefree as the music he plays on his flute and the vigilant yaksha shouldn't be used to his presence.

    but to a sad tune on a dihua flute, once played on an empty marsh, do they remember that they remain alive together still.

    (OR they're both just really lonely and decide to be sad together during their lantern rite meet-ups)
