BAHAH (same 😞)

[@juice3287]

you forgot to mention the flute is Venti’s flute and he wants to hear Venti playing again & venti is very important to him :) also, i think he was enslaved before being with the yakshas, since ‘morax summoned the five foremost yakshas’ which implies this was post-liberation of xiao from slavery where he’d already suffered a lot

[@9thharbingerofthefatui]

yup, xiao was enslaved by an evil king (i think) the king barely gave xiao food if at all which is where his phrase “once the snow is thick enough, we can eat it” came from, he frequently ate snow due to the king not giving him any food

[@Rue_Elpis777]

​@@9thharbingerofthefatui not a king, but an evil God but yea.. someone had captured him and forced him to do evil things, you can see that he still has kindness in his eye occasionally when he feels his words are too harsh... Someone like that was forced to devour dreams and kill people... He truly needs liberation from Rex Lapis as well .. T-T

[@juice3287]

@@9thharbingerofthefatui exactly

[@juice3287]

@@Rue_Elpis777 unfortunately morax has kind of done everything he can for xiao, & xiao is extremely grateful to him for this, morax can provide xiao with medicines but they obviously don't heal everything venti's flute is xiao's only real medicine, hence why he loves the music so much & that one lantern rite line, 'things have been a little more stable since an old friend visited me' (suggests venti hangs by every now & then to make xiao feel better)

[@Rue_Elpis777]

@@juice3287 i couldn't agree more! What I meant by liberating from Morax is that he should be free from exorcising demons, which keeps on wreaking his body.... With Rex Lapis out of picture from the Liyue, and that line "A contact to end all contracts has been signed" between Tsaritsa and Morax, xiao should be Freed as well .. he should retire and get rehabilitation with Venti so that he could at least fulfill his one true wish .. "To dance to the sound of the Flute, wearing his mask. Not to conquer demons, but for himself" T-T

[@Qeapon]

im sorry, but when it said "but to dance" i started laughing-

[@gamerskull1236]

I think he’s designed off Nuo theatre, it’s a tradition here in i think Northern parts of China where we wear similar mask and perform dances or operas to ward off spirits. Its not a tradition in my family however, I think him wanting to dance with the mask instead is akin to that

[@keroberusr.9687]

I didn't know he liked to dance ❤

[@mewhenZaza143]

Xiao may be the most depressing character in genshin but in some of the new(ish) art he looks like he’s starting to socialize with people a little bit more. I hope by the end of genshin Xiaos suffering will come to an end.

The saddest fact about xiao : he is short.

It is confirme about the Flute if yougo to the Cloud Retainer mountain, there is a Sinester and Sad Wistle, so many people and me thinks its Xiao calling his death Friends, the Yakshas, he is hope they come back with that calling, and its really sad, because you know they will never listen his call

[@hrakash3975]

During leveling him up in one of his ascension voicelines he clearly says why am i doing this, to bring more suffering and murder. It clearly shows that he is tired of fighting for all these years and I felt guilty for hiring him for the same job. If only there was any option to take care of him like sending him on vacation. His storyline is full of pain and suffering!!

Bruh evertime i see xiao i want to reinstall genshin aah

[@optimistellie145]

Underrated and sad

[@thetwinytwins6681]

The flute is the instrument that venti was once playing when xiao suddenly overheard him. He was appeased by the sound of it. Venti did it on purpose for calming xiao a bit. Since then, xiao was longing for the day to hear that tone again

Pls don’t tell me this is his actual voice line! Im finna cry

[@annacheung7819]

Omg after hearing this, I think those people should stop making fun of xiao and I’m a xiao main too😢😢😢

[@KaeyaAlberichGI]

I think due to the fact it was Barbatos who had saved him with that flute. The flute brought him a koment of peace, and stopped him from succumbing to the darkness. And this man never gets a moment of peace. The flute reminds him of that moment of rest and tranquility, and dancing expresses joy and happiness. WHEN WILL HE EVERY GET ANY OF THOSE BRO 😭😭😭

[@Randomperson-wm4kc]

[@beanzin7455]

Summoned my bbg when he first released, my second ever 5 star character, first being Keqing, and when I got him, I was like- ‘huh, cool. Finally got a 5 star.’ And ever realized how deep his character/story is. Ever since I unlocked the couple of stories explaining his backstory, and getting to know him through events, and story mode, I felt immense sympathy for him, and enjoyed his character so much. He’s definitely a top 5 best written character imo, and he will always be on my main team.

[@XiaoSimpMegaProMax5GLiteFold]

I mean yeah his voice line when he dies also goes something like "the day has finally come" or something so he really just wants to be freed and then again who wants to suffer like he does just for the fun of it? I dont think anyone would.

And when you put him in your teapot and get a certain friendship with him, and you ask about his karmic dept, he says it’s of his own doing and you shouldn’t worry about him and then he says “I don’t know if it has something to do with you but my karmic dept has felt less excruciating” 😭😭 (You get to see this when you ask him to chat)
