Xiao x Aether

Xiao is leaning on the fence at Wangshu inn and is thinking about the adventures they had so far.

Xiao is in bed, looking up and in the ceiling he sees a faint outline of Aether

Aether is singing Xiao some of the songs he learned from other worlds and Xiao tries singing along only to mess up and they giggle at the little mistakes.

Its the lantern rite and they go up on one of the hills to let go a Xiao lantern and Aether seems to be in his own little world, thinking about his sister and where she is.

Aether breaks down in Xiaos arms, saying how he doesnt even know if shes still alive, or if he'll ever find her. Xiao comforts him, hugging him and telling him he will find her.

Xiao writes a song about Aether, basically confessing but Aether doesn't realize and finds it amazing and that he should write more. Xiao is a little hurt, but hides it behind a kind smile.

Xiao is singing this while at Aethers grave, his head in his knees and his back against the grave. Somone appears and taps Xiaos shoulder. Xiao looks up and sees Aether, faint and ghostly.
