    Summary

    Inevitably, gentle kisses from near-death is a hard thing to undo the trauma of, and Kaeya finds himself unsettled way more than he should be by a tragedy that unfolded on Dragonspine and left Albedo holding hands with the skeleton of post-mortem. It's a delicate line, and Kaeya hates how close Albedo got to crossing it for entirely selfish reasons. Albedo, on the other hand, can't quite get himself to stay grounded, and finds that task harder than it already was because of Kaeya calling his feelings about him into question.

    ❝ I was lost in thought. I kept thinking about how weird it was to imagine you weren't here, that your heartbeat wasn't something that could be felt or heard by anyone or anything, that it simply ceased to exist. I don't know, it just did weird things to my head. ❞

    ❝ I'm still here. Perhaps only ever so slightly, but I wasn't buried on Dragonspine. If I'm being honest with myself, I don't know how I am, but clearly someone or something wanted me to stay. Is that not enough? ❞
