It's time for another new blog post! So for today's blog post, I will be clearing up a few jokes surrounding Xiao from Genshin Impact. It's true there are a few jokes in bad taste within the fandom, like people making fun of Zhongli for missing his long gone friends. But, Xiao actually has a few of them; most likely because people want to find humor in a serious character. First of all, Xiao isn't an edgelord. People assume this because of his attitude and appearance, but he isn't. He's a serious person who is afraid of attachment and worried he'll accidentally hurt someone close to him. These fears make him distance himself from others, and close himself off emotionally. Secondly, Xiao doesn't like almond tofu because it's sweet. Fans think it's funny that such a serious character likes a dessert, but he actually likes it because it reminds him of the dreams he used to eat. Along with this, he can't stomach other human food. Lastly, Xiao eating snow isn't a joke. He thinks of it as just another food, and people used to eat snow in times of famine. Although it's unclear why he eats snow, it is clear that he has had to eat it sometime in the past and now just sees it as a food. So, I hope this post cleared some things up. Although I only covered three things in this post, that's just because they're pretty much the only things people pick on him for. Nonetheless, I hope you all still enjoyed this blog post!
