Summary
This morning, Kaeya woke with the peculiar feeling of frost biting at the edge of his bones. It was a cold that settled too deeply into his skin to be explained by mere weather. It had been months since he’d last felt this kind of chill, the kind that didn’t come from outside.

“…Yeah, same here.”
After reminiscing on a walk through the forest, Kaeya returns to a Mondstat that has never heard the name Kaeya Alberich.

“Bartender! Another round for us!” Kaeya gave a drunken laugh at the man's demands… he wasn’t quite drunk, but he was certainly getting there, having paced himself to interrogate his new “friend”.
He downed the rest of his drink, sliding it over for Diluc to refill.

Summary
4/30
Diluc had been dreading the date ever since the beginning of April. Sure he was to celebrate his coming of age, but that also meant it was the anniversary of a not-so-pleasant day...
Kaeya on the other hand had been looking forward to today! He had everything planned out and nothing could go wrong. He would do anything in his abilities to change the meaning of this annual holiday for Diluc, to try his best to distract him from the tragedies the two had faced on that fateful day.

Summary
“All relationships thrive on open communication” Thoma continues, voice strained and slightly dull. “If you and him can't get along, and can’t communicate, then there’s no saving that bond with him. There’s no point fighting for something you’ve already lost” Diluc swallows another sip of his grape juice.
“And if he turns his back?” he asked. Thoma met his eyes and gave him a smile just shy of pained.
“Then you keep your head high and you walk the other way. The pain of losing him won’t ever go away, but you’ll feel better knowing that there’s nothing you could have done. You’ll move on, eventually. Trust me, the process isn’t as terrible as people make it out to be”Fair warning: Characters might be OOC

Summary
Truthfully, Diluc didn't mean to. He'd fallen far from where he once was, Archons, he knew that much, but he really means it when he says he never meant for it to end like this.
But also, he didn't ask for it to start like this, either. He didn't ask for betrayal on a rainy night, he didn't ask for secrets to be spilt alongside blood and tears.
He didn't ask for any of this.
Or; an AU where diluc is never captured by the fatui, and therefore never leaves schneznaya. Set in the Nod Krai arc.

Summary
That was personal problem number two. For whatever reason, Kaeya simply couldn’t fathom what it may be, the only two tents available for them to take with them were quite small. Meaning there wouldn’t be enough space for all four of them in one. This then left the obvious and seemingly harmless solution of Lumine and Paimon sharing one, and Kaeya and Diluc sharing the other. Kaeya simply did not under any circumstances wish to share a tent with his estranged brother, not now, not ever.
