The Anatomy of an Equation by chaoticsnowflake

Summary
"I am a scholar of linguistics," Alhaitham reminds Kaveh for what he assumes is approximately the fourth time in this conversation, "it is not my responsibility to be able to calculate angles and dimensions and whatnot."
Kaveh raises an eyebrow. "You say you're a linguistic expert, and yet you refuse to even try to understand the most universal language of all?"
"Arithmetic has no bearing on practical conversation," Alhaitham remarks. "You're wasting your time with something that holds no value outside of an academic context."
"I can't believe this," says Kaveh, huffing a breath of exasperation and throwing his hands up in the air. "You're literally—you are lecturing me on my discipline's bearing on social situations?"
Alternatively: It starts, as it tends to do, with an argument over something trivial—in this instance, the value of mathematics. It devolves, because of course it does, into the Sisyphean task of trying to make sense of something which is impossible to make sense of... that thing being calculus. Obviously. What else would it be?

Rigged Dice & A Triple Cocktail of Chaos by chaoticsnowflake, DarkLuminosity

Summary
"Well, in the spirit of Windblume, I’ve found an interesting way for us to spend the evening." Looking at Kaeya and Eula, she continues with an endearing smile. "Since our partners are more on the— ahem, reserved side, we can get to know one another better this way. Especially since it does involve alcohol…"
Jean chooses this moment to chime in. "Lisa, Eula, Kaeya, why did you bring us all here?"
"Well," Kaeya answers, "that's simple. All of you need to socialize more, and it’s Windblume. What better time, honestly?"
Albedo, so quietly under his breath to the point where his words very nearly go unnoticed: "This is going to go horribly wrong, isn’t it?"
Alternatively: In the spirit of Windblume, Lisa, Eula, and Kaeya decide to drag Jean, Diluc, and Albedo to the Angel's Share for drinks and an innocent game of truth or dare—a triple date, in other words. Chaos ensues, naturally; with this group, why wouldn't it?

The Simple Science of Mutual Abhorrence by chaoticsnowflake

Summary
After seven minutes of uncharacteristic silence—yes, Diluc counted—Kaeya clears his throat and sets down his drink, swirling the liquid around in his glass and carefully avoiding Diluc’s gaze. “Hey, so I want you to meet someone.”
His attention preoccupied with the inventory clipboard in his hand, Diluc doesn’t bother taking much time to formulate a response. “What,” he tosses out absentmindedly, almost as a joke, “you want me to meet your boyfriend or something?”
Kaeya blinks, his posture visibly stiffening. “Huh,” he remarks. “Didn’t know your informants were that adept.”
“Of course they are; I only hire the best of the—” Diluc stops dead in his tracks as his brain finally catches up and processes Kaeya’s words. “Wait. You have a what?”
Alternatively: A grave error in judgement on Kaeya's part leads to the introduction Diluc and Albedo to one another. Saying the two dislike one another would be perhaps the greatest understatement the nation of Mondstadt has ever heard.

Summary
“Why are you telling me all of this?”
“Well, part of it is for administrative reasons,” Varka admits. “But part of it is because, well…” He sighs, leaning back in the plush backing of his chair. “I’ve never had a son of my own, but you’re the closest thing I’ve got to one.”
Kaeya blinks, not entirely sure how to process such a statement. It’s not that he doesn’t believe it to be true—the fact of the matter is that ever since the night Crepus Ragnvindr died, Varka had taken Kaeya under his wing, given him a place to live, and more or less done all the other little things a parent might do for his child. And still, to hear it admitted aloud is quite a strange thing.
“What do I do now?” he asks, more to himself than anything else. “I have nowhere else to go.”
Alternatively: The story of how Kaeya came by his fur-adorned cape, among other things. Inspired by a fanart on tumblr, which can be found here.

The Mysterious Case of the Darknight Hero by chaoticsnowflake for DarkLuminosity

Summary
All in all, the Knights of Favonius are presently a mess, everyone is stressed and overworked to Celestia and back, and these Abyss Mages happen to be today’s target of Eula’s ire.
And yet, she never gets the chance, because out of seemingly nowhere another figure has appeared, donning a black cloak and mask and killing all of the remaining Abyss Mages in one fell swoop.
Sheathing her claymore and muttering under her breath, Eula swears a solemn oath of vengeance. Mark her words, this man will be found out. And when she finds him, Eula is going to give him hell.
Alternatively: After a mysterious vigilante has the audacity to deprive Eula of some much needed stress relief, she makes it her own personal mission to discover his identity and make him pay for his crimes; chaos ensues.

On Why Windblume & Alcohol Should Never Be Mixed by chaoticsnowflake, DarkLuminosity
Fandom: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
24 Sep 2025
Summary
It starts on a crisp Windblume evening in the Angel's Share—a triple date between Mondstadt's three most gossiped-about couples, a game of truth or dare, and more alcohol than is probably strictly necessary. Now, naturally, the combined presences of Kaeya Alberich and Lisa Minci already imply chaos from the outset, but you know what they say... the more, the merrier!
