    Summary

    He had gone from toiling as an assistant to teaching first year classes and filling in for the more senior professors when the occasion arose. It was boring. Biology was not even his field of study. Not that he had an official field of study, unless memorizing Heimerdinger’s insane organizational system, a thing built over centuries, counted. His life was a monotony quickly slipping through his fingers. His leg and back were failing. He felt old before his time and there was the ever-ticking clock hanging over his head.
    There had been a promise of something more, once. An explosion. A journal that was meant to be destroyed. A theory so insane it barely made sense until you looked closer and realized that the science was sound. However, it was not to be. A child had died.

     

    Instead of forgetting Viktor exists, Heimerdinger seeks him out when he, Ekko, and Powder hit a snag with their Hextech research. It doesn't take long to realize that they need a fifth great mind and Viktor goes to find Jayce while the timeline starts to shatter.

    Summary

    "Diluc," Kaeya whispers, and it's like he's caught in a dream when he says, "I want to do it." Diluc stares at him, the reds of his eyes dilating.

    "You… huh? What?"

    "Sex," Kaeya says more bluntly, releasing the ribbon to, instead, draw his arms around Diluc's neck, moving slowly, deliberately, despite the blooming warmth in his cheeks. “Let's do it.”

    Summary

    Kaeya, a young merman, forges a close bond with Diluc after saving him from drowning in a storm. After tragedy tears them apart and turns them against each other, Kaeya chooses to become human in order to resolve things once and for all--by taking Diluc's life.

    Summary

    Two weeks after Diluc's ninth birthday, his father, an ill-tempered man whom he has always been afraid of, arrives home with a strange, quiet boy, perhaps a year or two older than him. His skin is a warm, beautiful brown, his hair so black that it appears almost blue in the daylight, and he does not smile. “This is Kaeya,” his father tells him, brimming with adoration. "He will be staying with us from now on. Come and say hello."

    As they grow up, Diluc wonders why his father dotes on Kaeya, what it is about him that pacifies his rage, and how he can redeem himself to become worthy of such compassion. One night, after weathering two decades of his father's unrelenting wrath, Diluc returns home to find him dead in his living room, and embarks upon a journey of discovering the truth about his father, Kaeya, and himself, and how the two of them do not differ so much, after all.

    A story of dark secrets, trauma, and learning how to love.

    Summary

    "I'm so hot," Diluc says.

    "... I haven't heard you complain like this in years," Kaeya says.

    We haven't talked properly in years, Diluc wants to say, but even his rut-addled brain knows he's the one at fault for that. He thus remains silent.

    Instead, he tugs his shirt up, revealing his vulnerable stomach, his chest, and brings Kaeya's hand there instead.

    "Diluc," Kaeya says, strangled. They both watch, enraptured, as the cloth leaves trails of shining wet on Diluc's skin. His scars especially seem to glisten. Diluc presses down, forcing moisture from the cloth. Water runs in rivulets down his chest, gathering in the valleys between his pectorals, his abs, and into the dip of his belly button. The cold causes his nipples to stiffen.

    "Barbatos," Kaeya says, faintly, "give me strength."

    Summary

    “You’re being watched,” Kaeya whispered, so close to his face that no one would be able to see his mouth nor hear his words unless they were literally right next to them.

    “And this is your method of conveying this information?” He swallowed and whispered back, a little more hoarsely than Kaeya sounded.

    Kaeya pressed unnecessarily closer and hummed, “It’s important that they see it, because someone saw me sending letters off to you.”

    Or

    Stupid boys, with silly emotional meltdowns, fist fighting each other, falling in love, and fighting evil by moonlight (No literally).

    Summary

    Kaeya had had fantasies about this exact situation: Diluc clinging to him, looking at him with wide, teary eyes and refusing to let go.

    But fantasies were fantasies. When fantasy suddenly became reality, well—

    "Diluc! Not so close!"

    "But," Diluc rasped, "you smell so good."

    —it turned out to be quite frightening.

    Diluc is hit with a curse that compels him to stay close to Kaeya. Kaeya is forced to bear the consequences.

    Summary

    "Just wondering," Kaeya says, "if I'm your first." His tone is casual, like he hasn't been wondering this whole time. Like the thought doesn't make a hot surge of satisfaction settle heavy and dark in his belly.

    "Shut up," Diluc answers, which is not actually an answer.

    Summary

    An old fairytale drifts into Kaeya’s recollection. In Khaenri’ah they said that the Visions were the eyes of god, but soulmates were the work of man. The first lovers had pooled their affection into the Irminsul Tree and petitioned its sagelike wisdom to let every person find love where there was love to find. And so could the first two share each other’s grief and joy, hunger and spite.

    Not Kaeya, though. Who would love someone like him?

    Summary

    “Very well, Master Diluc.” Let it never be said that Kaeya Alberich can’t play the part of a wounded lover. “I’ll quit this place with a heavy heart, to be out of your esteemed presence.”
    A long groan of disappointment rises up from their audience. Diluc raises one red eyebrow, looking unimpressed.
    “A terribly wounded heart, in fact,” Kaeya continues. “Bleeding as we speak. Perhaps I will go mad, and wander in the wilderness outside Mond.”
    “How will you ever get to doing that if you will not even leave this room?” Diluc puts his clean glass away and reaches for another.

    Summary

    This is not a love story.

    This is a story about food.

    This is a story about the time Diluc Ragnvindr told a reporter that none of the dishes in his own restaurant were as good as the ramen Kaeya Alberich made for him in culinary school. He had no reason to bring it up. It wasn't like they were friends. They were barely even classmates, seeing as Kaeya decided to drop out and leave the valedictorian spot to Diluc.

    (This is also maybe, possibly, kind of a love story.)

    Summary

    At the back of the cramped cell is Kaeya. He’s sitting with his knees pulled up to his chest, his head hanging low to obscure his face, trying to make himself as small as possible. Diluc’s heart clenches painfully: if anyone has laid so much as a finger—

    Kaeya looks up at his approach and immediately his face breaks out into a blood-boiling smirk. “Hello, come here often, handsome?”

    Diluc stops, spins on his heel, and makes for the door.

    “Wait, wait!” Kaeya laughs, “I’m sorry, please rescue me!”

    Summary

    Diluc Ragnvindr, rich, handsome, and charming, is the latest bachelor. Kaeya Alberich, tenuously employed, horny, and suffering from acid-reflux, is the reality show's host who unwittingly falls in love with Diluc at first sight. Diluc being strictly off-limits to the crew should ease Kaeya's suffering. It doesn't.

    It really, really doesn't.
