The city of Mondstadt has a massive crowd around the Favonius Cathedral and a real good reason why.

It's very deaconess and super idol, Barbara, is performing like she always does to bring smiles and happiness the best way she can.

But she isn't alone this time. Beside her are the Traveler Aether and his partner, Paimon.

Why they're on the stage? That's because Barbara wrote a new song and this one she wanted to sing with someone she could trust. And that person is Aether, the young man she is actually in love with, but didn't want to totally admit herself since Aether is known for being a little dense around women.

Of course, Aether couldn't say no and decided to help out, dragging Paimon as long as he and Barbara promised her a big meal, which she happily obliged.

Back in the present, Barbara was holding a microphone to welcome her audience.

"Thank you all for coming today's concert that each and every one of you been waiting for!" Barbara hollered.

"Today, I have our Honorary Knight and his partner, Paimon to be singing with me today!" Barbara hollered, while Aether and Paimon (with microphones in their own hands) happily waved and got the crowd wilder.

"We would like to sing to you all a song Barbara and I came up with together!" Aether hollered.

"And it's called…" Paimon said.

"OVER THE SKY!" Aether, Barbara and Paimon shouted in unison, getting loud applause from the crowd.

Soon, the music started to kick off and everyone were cheering as the trio started to get their groove in.

Aether: Saa tabidatou

Mune no oku ni hikaru kibou to sa

Bouken-shin o motte

Barbara: Nakama to no deai toka

Wasureenu omoide mo

Subete uketomeru sa

Kono kaze no you ni

Paimon: (Zutto)

Aether: Tachidomari utsumuite mo

Barbara: Unmei ga michibiku sa

Aether: Donna konnan mo

Barbara: Kimi no kizuna to norikoeru

Barbara: Ano shiroi shiroi kumo o koe
Sora no kanata e to

Paimon: (Soshite)

Aether: Mada minu hoshi o mezashi

Barbara: Tobitatsu aoi sora

Aether & Paimon: Ano takai takai yama mo koe

Niji no mukou e to

Paimon: (Kitto)

Aether: Dokomademo ikou yo

Barbara & Paimon: Nakama to issho ni

Throughout the whole song, the trio danced beautifully and performed well in harmony. Once the final note played, Aether and Barbara held hands while standing side-by-side, with Paimon floating in the front doing the peace sign.

The audience cheered wildly in response, so happy for the stage music that went extremely fabulous.

Hours later after the singing, Aether and Barbara were alone together in Wolvendom, drinking Barabra's homemade Chilibrew drinks together for some peace and quiet, and to get away from any of Barbara's crazed fans.

"Thanks for today, Aether. It was really fun!" Barbara chirped.

"No problem. Glad to help." Aether said.

Barbara blushed lightly and fiddled with her right bang.

"So in return, I have something to give to you." Barbara explained.

"Didn't you already give me your homemade juice as a reward?" Aether asked, thinking she has another one to likely share.

"No… this." Barbara said, doing the unexpected by leaning forward and giving Aether a quick kiss on the lips, making his eyes wide in shock.

Barbara released the kiss in a hurry and covered her now crimson cherry face in shame.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE I JUST DID THAT!" Barbara internally screamed, feeling ashamed.

The young deaconess felt she messed up, but Aether smiled and gently removed her hands from her face before using his left hand to lift her chin up.

"I'd say that was the best gift I could ever get from you." Aether commented.

Barbara was totally touched and forgot about her embarrassment now that she is happy Aether isn't dense to notice her feelings after all.

The two soon leaned in for another kiss, more deeper and passionate with Aether right hand around the back of her head and left hand around the left side of her waist; Barbara has her left arm around his neck and her right hand on his right shoulder.

The Traveler and nun were totally unaware that in the bushes, Paimon, Venti, Kaeya, Amber, Lisa, Noelle and even Jean (who shedded a tear to be happy for her younger sister) were all watching with smirks on their faces, enjoying the show.

I find this ship kinda cute, which I got from their Hangout Event together. The song used is actually a Granblue Fantasy character song called "Over the Sky" by Gran, Djeeta, Lyria and Vyrn, and did the Gran & Lyria version, which I used with Aether, Barbara and Paimon. It was really cool to try.

Also, Happy 4th Anniversary to Genshin Impact! Thank you for being one of the best video games of the 2020s and likely of all time! Plus Happy Birthday to one of my favorite Inazuma girls, Kamisato Ayaka!
