    Summary

    After the Taumoeba leak, after I decided to die after all and turned my ship around to save Rocky, after Rocky's frantic calculations about food supplies, Taumoeba multiplication rates, and human caloric intake needs, after we realized that with some rationing and luck I would make it, but that we were headed toward the unknown territory of trying to rapid-prototype me a life support system and synthetic food supply on an inhospitable planet: after all of that, after everything, I shouldn't have been surprised that it only took a few months on board the Hail Mary for things to get weird.

    Summary

    When he gets to Erid, Grace tells himself, he can beg and plead for an Eridian anatomy textbook so he can finally scratch the burning itch under his skin.

    It's only another two years. He can live with not knowing something for another two years. And by the time they arrive, he’ll have much more to worry about than finding out why a rock needs to wear clothes.

    Summary

    It was love at first sight, a feeling so strong that, even years later, Kaeya falls asleep to soft sounds of pleasure coming from a warm body pinned beneath him, and wakes up to visions of a beautiful face surrounded by flaming hair.

    So maybe he doesn't actually know what Diluc would sound like in bed, or what he would look like waking up, but he will make it all a reality one day.

    It helps that Kaeya doesn't mind throwing around his weight; he spends most of his time using it to help others. What's the point of anything if he can't use it from time to time to benefit himself? So, he talks to certain people. He hints at things in the letters he sends and says things here and there, and orchestrates the entire situation in which Diluc Ragnvindr falls right into his lap.
    ====
    Or, marriage is arranged between Kaeya, ruler of Khaenri'ah, and Diluc, the heir to Mondstadt's most prominent family, as a means to strengthen ties between the nations, only, Kaeya pulled a shitton of strings in order to orchestrate the entire situation in which Diluc falls right into his lap after he fell in love at first sight with Diluc years ago.

    Summary

    After two years spent in Snezhnaya harrying the Fatui and destroying their camps, Diluc knew he was a thorn in the side of the Tsaritsa. He expected serious retaliation, and got it. He didn't expect to wake up, least of all in a nice bed.

    ___

    The Harbinger's hospitality morphed into cruelty the moment Diluc rejected his advances. Now a prisoner, the only thing that counts is escaping. But at what cost?

    Summary

    Cursed with perfect empathy, Diluc teaches bright minds how to hunt the worst criminals. When he's dragged into an FBI case to hunt a monster, he finds himself adrift in feelings and thoughts not his own. Dr Alberich was supposed to keep him from floating away... Instead, he ends up in a deadly snare. Was this his design? Or was it Kaeya's? Diluc doesn't know, but it's far to late to care... He's already fallen into Kaeya's trap.
