    Summary

    Alright, this is now just all of the one shots, drabbles, and generally non full length brain worms. Often Kaeya, Diluc, Zhongli, or ensemble focused; more points of view may arise as well. Much angst and such.

     

    Chapter 6

    Thoughts of an erstwhile god on one who has been lost, and everything they were before… and still (zhongli, about guizhong)

    Summary

    A threat looms. As usual, the leaders of nations have engaged the Traveler to address it.

    …of course, once a certain Calvary Captain is involved, things get a bit more… complicated. If you ask Diluc, he’d probably be more inclined to call it “exasperating”

    …it seems a rescue mission is in order. Whose fault that is, is beside the point.

    In which Aether has no idea the degree to which the various forces which protect Mond are intertwined behind the scene; the Fatui are scheming again; Kaeya is better at it; and Diluc is over it.

    Summary

    When memory, yearning, and ghosts stalk the living, they whisper. Those curious or furtive souls who listen too closely may fall, helpless, under their sway.

    Kaeya, with all his demons, is not immune.

    Summary

    Diluc regrets having been roped into a mission with his favorite not-brother. He swears he's never doing this- or drinking- again.

    The plots not important, this is pure nonsense and shared misery.

    Warnings for alcohol use, brief profanity. No violence described, for once, notwithstanding a brief mention of an already expired assassin.

    Summary

    Can there really be too many retellings of Kaeya and Diluc's falling out?

    Jumping on the bandwagon.

    As grounded in canon character stories as I could get.
     


    Everyone else thinks that the rain is the grief of the heavens, weeping for the Master’s passing.

    Kaeya thinks it will keep raining until he, too, is cleansed away.


    liberosis: n. the desire to care less about things—to loosen your grip on your life, to stop glancing behind you every few steps, afraid that someone will snatch it from you ...

    Summary

    Or: How to Lose a Mind in Thirty Hours, and Sort of Find It Again

    Kaeya is dealing with a few things.

    His erstwhile "brother" is always one of them, even when he's not. See also: concussion brain; self imposed sleeplessness; an overly protective Acting Grand Master; an overly dedicated Outrider; Mondstadt's weather patterns; (not) dealing with one's issues; being too chaotic for one's own good; and why is it always something with the ley lines, anyway?

    Featuring cheeky Abyss mages; How to Manipulate People Nicely (tm); Platonic affection; and a shameless amount of pain and angst couched in a sense of irony.

    Takes place after "Lamellae", but it is not at all mandatory to read that first, or at all.

    In anticipation of upcoming Kenobi series, a short little study in grief, loss, and longing.

    Obi Wan on the way to Tatooine. After Mustafar, after Padme's death on Polis Massa. Alone, save for his tiny precious charge, he must have finally had time to breathe... and to begin to feel the weight and horror of all that had come to pass.

    Summary

    A quiet conversation between science bros, post Civil War.

     

    A thing he won't admit to, buried brain-stem deep, is the way that in the moment after the quiet fell, consuming rage give way to sudden emptiness. Waking to something precious, pulverized, at his feet; its ghost mangled in his fists.

    Summary

    A slowish movement in a discordant key, wherein Kaeya has bitten off rather more than he can chew and needs significant help; meanwhile, malady exposes buried memory and dread. A limited plot from a limited point of view which dabbles in themes of pain, trust, angst, conflict, and betrayal. Not quite a character study.

    Summary

    After accepting the shield and the name to go with it, Captain America is supposed to help out with homeland defense when called upon to de-escalate or subdue threats- and there are never not new threats. Like when mysterious foreign actors (maybe?) engage in nefarious attempts to subvert America's defenses (perhaps?). Sam is never not going to do things his way, whenever possible. Bucky is never not going to come along for the ride, possible or not.

    ...Occasionally, things get messy.
