SLEEPY EEPY BABIES I LIKE,,, WROTE THIS AS SOON AS I GOT IT !! youre such,, brain!! i love your brain... hehehehehe,,, i wanna cuddol wit them when i go eepy... HAVE A GOOD DAY/NIGHGT!! <3 okay so i might write all guys as clingly so im... trying to give diversity LMAO

He tries so hard to be able to sleep on the same bed as you every night, but he gets too busy with his work as a Harbinger. But with enough effort, he manages to get in bed with you.

Sometimes he comes home awfully late, but there are times when he comes home early.

Sleeps shirtless because he loves, LOVES the feeling of your skin against his freckled body. He absolutely loves skinship, so feeling your hands trace over his scars right before falling asleep? Absolute heaven.

Want him to big spoon? Sure, baby! He loves to wrap his arms around you, it gives him a sense of calmness, knowing that even when he's asleep, he can have you in his arms to protect you from anything.

But if you want him to small spoon? Of course, whatever you want, babe! While he relishes the feeling of being able to protect you... His absolute guilty pleasure was to be held by you as if he's a fragile little thing...

Your hands tenderly roam all over his abdomen, your chest pressing against his back while you pepper kisses all over his freckled shoulders always sending shivers up his spine.

It's always so reassuring that, if there ever is a time when he'd be too vulnerable, you'd also be there to protect him, just as much as he'd protect you.

Similar to Childe, he tries his best to get home on time so he could snuggle up with you and sleep soundly with you in his arms. He often comes home late, and he always feels bad to see you asleep on the couch, waiting for him.

He's usually tired when he gets home so when he's finally in your embrace, he's immediately knocked out, no matter what position you're in. Diluc's body could be on top of yours and he'd be sleeping soundly.

You'd always have to take off the ponytail for him when he's about to sleep since he'd often forget, just too eager to just be with you in bed.

Not one to care if he's big or small spoon since he's already asleep before he could get himself in position. But he does enjoy being a big spoon, it makes his tense body relax further when his arms are wrapped around you. Your heat, closeness, and breathing are signs that you're still here, right next to him, not bound to disappear.

If you stay awake long enough, you'd hear him whispering your name while he was dreaming, with a small, soft smile tugging on his lips.

Rarely ever sleeps, so the chances of him sleeping with you are always sparse. He doesn't need sleep anymore.

But if you should ever be lonely, you can just nab one of his segments and cuddle with them to be instead! Dottore encourages this since he can be very busy at times.

And the segments never refuse, after all, you usually give all your affection towards Prime, so this is a good chance for them to be able to have you all for themselves, holding onto you tightly.

If you're feeling extra frivolous, you can invite a bunch of segments into your private chambers and have them all sleep with you. It felt weird and suffocating at first, but now you've grown addicted to the feeling of multiple arms wrapping all over your body. They'd occasionally press kisses or nip on your exposed skin as well, anywhere and everywhere.

Well, only if a segment was daring enough because Dottore is the only one to have access to your entire body. Poor segments :(

At the rare times when Dottore will decide to join you to bed, it usually happens at least 5 times in a row, night after night, before working all night once again.

It was sporadic, so you never knew when he'd be joining you. Fortunately, you always took it as a pleasant surprise, grinning ear to ear with an incredulous look in your eyes as Dottore starts stripping to put on something more comfortable for the night.

Dottore doesn't care what position you prefer, as long as it's comfortable and you're touching him. He does like big spooning though.

His arms wrapped around you, trapping you as he pulls you impossibly close. Because you're his, and his only. Not anyone else's, and having you in his arms only feeds on his possessiveness.

Always there to be in bed with you as much as he can. While Kaeya can be busy in the morning, he makes time for you at night. In fact, the Cavalry Captain has become a bit more productive ever since he's gotten with you.

Of course, he's not there all the time for you, or he's late, so he always makes it up to you by kissing you all over and mumbling sweet nothings in your ear, promising that he'll treat you so nice just to ask you for forgiveness.

Before you get to bed though, if he's home early, he'd let you join into his nightly routines. It's just an excuse to pamper you even more and touch your cute little face. Plus, it helps you maintain your skincare!

He definitely got you into having nightly routines even if Kaeya comes home late or isn't able to sleep with you. Your skin has never been so healthier.

He adores wrapping his arms around your torso and burying his face in your chest. He thinks it's the most comfortable position to sleep in.

Would always tease you for a bit, tickling your sides or pressing his cold palms against the skin of your back, making you squeal and slap on Kaeya's arm to stop.

Big spoon or small spoon? He doesn't care! As long as he's in your arms, or you're in his arms. It still fills the void of longing in his heart to be so close to you, to have you as his lover.

He'd often wait for you to fall asleep first, only to shower kisses all over your face and whisper soft confessions that he aches to tell you, but was not just yet ready to do so.

And you'd be lying if you hadn't pretended to sleep often, just to hear him say those words over and over.

Always sleeps with you, no questions asked. Ever since he finally allowed himself to indulge in his desires, one of them is sleeping next to you, he never has given you a single night alone on your shared bed.

In the beginning, his hugs were very tight, desperate, and never letting go, that if he ever did let go, you'd vanish in his arms, never to return. Gradually, it has changed.

Now, it was gentle. Loose arms cradle you close to him as he buries his face into the crook of your neck, lips brushing against your skin before attacking you with a plethora of kisses, making you giggle.

They're lighthearted now, loving and secure. He was relaxed and comfortable. While his hands gripping your clothes tells you that he's still desperately clutching onto you, in hopes you'd still be next to him once he opens his eyes, slowly, his hands would let go of your clothes.

It gives you a sense of relief whenever he does, for you know he trusts you. Trusts that you'd never abandon him, to leave him so hastily without even a proper goodbye. Trusts that even if you decide to go, you'd return if you wanted to.

He likes small spooning the most. Mostly because it greatly reassures him that he's wanted. That he's important to you. That you'll never let go of him if he ever told you to. That you treasure him, cherish him, adore him... That you still chose him despite his flaws. Despite being a puppet.

author's note ˚ ༘♡ ⋆｡˚

this fic may not have popped off as my other posts did but people miss once in a while and i respect that fact. either way i had so much fun writing this !! diluc is such a fun character to write and i wanna do more <33 have a great day/night!! sorry it took a while btw :( ALSO it kinda sucked in the end bc i had a headache mid point :(

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ cw: reader is a hyrdo user, gay struggles LOL, plot heavy cuz i wanted to write smth long, references of killing, drinking reader an archer

And Diluc Ragnvindr fell harder,

Diluc's first impression of you was similar to other knights; an aspiring captain that would only do so little to uphold his title or position in the Knights of Favonious. Rookie knights were usually naive and full of misplaced ambition, too focused on a goal when protecting the citizens of Mondstadt is your priority. He's not one to listen in for the gossip of his customers, but sometimes, as a bartender, he couldn't help but hear when they were speaking right in front of him. "He's always so helpful! Truly a kind soul, I'm glad he's a knight." Whenever he hears your name, it's always followed by praise. Naturally, he got curious. Can a rookie knight be that good to deserve so much praise?

From afar, he observed you begrudgingly, and often saw you with his brother, Kaeya. Diluc was torn between his opinion for you; one side of him was glad Kaeya found someone he could be comfortable with, to share laughs and smiles with all the while reminding your captain to fulfill his duties, and the other side was a tad perturbed of you, for being a knight and letting yourself get influenced with Kaeya's antics. Though he could see you truly are a good-natured man, helping elders whenever you could, and playing with children on the streets if you had the time to do so.

You were one of the most productive knights he's ever seen in a while, alongside Lisa and Jean, so you've earned a tiny bit of his respect. And he should've left it at that, never really paying you any more attention since he's gotten all the information he wanted of you, leaving you be and only hearing of your name amongst the whispers of the wind. But even after his investigation, he's always felt compelled to listen to the gossip of you whenever he's behind the counter of Angel's Share. Although, he wasn't a fan when you've also befriended the drunk of a bard that's a regular of his tavern, drinking away without a care.

And while yes, for a short period of time, Diluc felt drawn to you somehow. To at least hear you say your own name once you greet each other for the first time, perhaps to quell this burning curiosity of his on how often people say that your voice was soothing as the gentle crashes of water against stone, a tone that always makes their eyelids grow heavy. But he lost interest soon enough, deciding that you were just an impressive knight amongst knights, though a little disappointed that you've joined them.

Fate had other plans, it seems, for your first-ever encounter finally occurred, however, he would've preferred if it was in Dawn Winery instead, and not in the cold, empty alleyways of Mondstadt. Diluc took note that there was less... Activity for the past few weeks, and it wasn't because of him. He was gone for a few days for business-related meetings and such, so he expected more work for him at night, but he was wrong. The streets felt like they were swept clean, with not a single living soul in the area at night. Mondstadt couldn't simply be cleansed like that, and he was right. He found you again, hiding across the street where he had recently beat off some Fatui. You were shocked, to say the least, and the way you had mentioned him being the Darknight Hero embarrassed him.

For a rookie knight, you knew how to set your priorities straight, patrolling in routes knights don't usually go to, actively seeking troublemakers or any creatures that crept inside the gates of Mondstadt. His respect for you only grew, surprising even himself when he gave you an ounce of acknowledgment, something he doesn't normally speak of to others. And so your nightly endeavors together has begun, and for some odd reason, Diluc hadn't minded.

Similar to the rumors he's heard of you at Angel's Share, you were quite talkative. At first, he had told you to keep quiet and focus on the task at hand, to which you would oblige, however only for a few long minutes. He didn't understand why you wanted to talk to him so much, and he didn't have much to say either, but he gradually learnt that you'd be satisfied even with short, quick answers. You didn't annoy him though, in fact, your voice was very alluring; calming, and Diluc finds himself relaxing his muscles a tad. You were also quite the archer, with precise aim and graceful movements. You watched his back even if he hadn't needed it, and it led to him taking enemies down quickly around Mondstadt with fewer injuries. It was a nice change of pace, Diluc thought. To have someone support him in his blind spots, and he makes sure to return the favor by making sure no enemy gets too close to you, luring them closer to your range.

Then, you frequented Angel's Share, especially when he was behind the counter serving customers. You'd always take a seat close to him and start talking, just as you do when you're on your nightly routines. Surely just because you've become partners of the night doesn't mean you're friends now, right? So, oftentimes, he'd tune you out and you'd earn pitying looks from everyone witnessing your attempts to befriend the stone-hearted man. Though, it never really stopped you, greeting him all the time with a lovely smile you always wore, like it was sculpted perfectly with your handsome features, eyes always so bright and full of life, even when you talk to a dull guy like him.

And he slowly, slowly, got used to your presence, and it always felt as if he was at the shore of the beach when he was with you. And when you're not close by, he finds himself yearning for you, to hear your flow of never-ending words, to see your blinding smile— just you sitting across the counter as he pours you a drink. It was as if there was a force binding him close to you, and no matter how hard he tried to pull away, to think nothing of your existence, he couldn't. There was only a risky solution to this problem; to indulge himself in whatever he was experiencing in hopes it would eventually fade away into nothing.

When he first gave you a long reply to a question you asked, descriptive and clearly attentive to every word you've said, you were understandably surprised (as well as the other people in Angel's Share who are conveniently listening to your 'conversation'). It took a few moments for you to speak again, staring at your glass of alcohol as if you were just having a drunken hallucination. Of course, Diluc had mistaken your reddening cheeks as a sign of getting drunk, so he told you to go ahead and take a rest for the night, completely unaware of how your enthusiastic face immediately fell. You got along well, in Diluc's opinion. Your topics were always bright and easy, making sure he catches on if there was something he doesn't know and never makes fun of anything he says, considerate of his opinions. You'd always tilt your head slightly to the side to listen to him, a small smile on your lips with your cheek laid on your fist. Some would say you're literally looking at him with hearts in your eyes. Diluc disagrees, only seeing it as a friendly trait of yours to listen well to what others have to say (though he doesn't understand why his heart would clench whenever he thought about this).

It took a while for Diluc to understand how he felt toward you. He thought that it was normal to feel so attached to a person, especially when you're very friendly to everyone, including him. Though, he grew confused when he had invited you for dinner at his mansion, to have a bit of a much more private chat, away from the peering eyes and ears of his regulars in his tavern. You were extremely polite to everyone you see, greeting his maids and asking if you could be of any assistance even if you were a guest. When Diluc pointed this out, you just let out an embarrassed laugh, saying that you were just used to asking that question by default, sticking by his side as he led you to the dining area.

Diluc had never had this much fun simply having dinner with a friend in ages. He didn't have much to share about himself, preferring his life to be a sealed tight book, but you were quite loquacious about yours, spilling stories of your past and of your experiences as a new knight. Normally, Diluc wouldn't be interested in anyone's stories, but he figured that when it comes to you? He could listen to you talk about anything and he wouldn't mind at all, taking bites of his meal while you tell him a rather embarrassing story of Kaeya that you had promised never to tell anyone. He even had a small smile gracing his lips, expression softening when you kept talking. He enjoyed the way your face would light up at each bite of your food, spouting praises to Adeline, who was the one who prepared your dinner. Though he didn't understand why his maids all started giggling when he wiped off the crumbs on your cheek with his thumb.

It was Adeline who made him realize that he was in love with you. He had asked her a plethora of questions; why does he always want to be with you? Why does he always feel so relaxed and comfortable when you're around? Why does your voice soothe him so much? Why does his heart start beating fast whenever you get too close to him? Adeline had never heard her Master Diluc speak so much in a short span of time, especially regarding someone and himself. So she could only come to one conclusion, hands clasped together with a big grin on her face. "Why, you're in love!" And Diluc was prepared to deny such assumptions, but he mulled over that thought a bit more, before ultimately agreeing in defeat. Yes, perhaps it was truely love. As a young boy, his father had told him about finding the one he loved when he was old enough, though he never could've imagined he'd find love anymore after his death. It honestly freaked him out upon this revelation. Thankfully, his maids were there to give him their full support between the two of you, as well as reassure their master. Though the doubt he feels whenever they encourage him to pursue you didn't leave, not one bit.

Not when you're so close to his brother. Diluc had deduced that you could never return his love for you, for you love another; Kaeya. It makes his heart ache whenever he sees the two of you together, though it made sense, for he could absolutely give you more than he could ever do. He was charming and a friendly person once you've gotten to know him, similar to you. And he was sure that others would agree to your spectacular pairing. It was as if you were meant for each other. Diluc couldn't even make you laugh like Kaeya does. It was the sole reason why he had approached your table that night when he heard Venti and the other regulars encouraging you to confess to a particular someone. Although he didn't know who it was, Diluc could only guess it was Kaeya. Who would it be if it wasn't him? And when your whole table burst out laughing, Diluc was at a loss for words, now unsure of himself.

"It's... not Kaeya..." You sighed with a shake of your head, solemnly taking a sip of your drink while Venti patted your back reassuringly. "It isn't...?" Diluc had never felt his face burn so hot, nodding and swiftly walking back behind the counter, embarrassed. After that night, the air between you has been a mite awkward, mostly because you seemed upset about something— hopefully not at him for jumping to conclusions— and he would be too nervous about speaking up first, just waiting for you to take the lead. Either way, Diluc was grateful you kept up with your consistent visits even if you were agitated over something he was unaware of.

However, one night, his brother unexpectedly helped him open his eyes to the apparent truth.

There were times when Diluc would patrol the streets of Mondstadt all by himself, which he was fine with. He didn't think you were a slacker, for you'd always excuse yourself for the nights you'd miss with him. He just didn't expect to see you walking back home with Kaeya. It seems like you've drunk a bit too much, not being able to walk straight without Kaeya's help, slurring words altogether in his ear. Diluc hadn't meant it, but he followed the two of you, eavesdropping. "That damn brother of yours..." He heard you grumble under your breath and Diluc felt himself tense, frowning. Kaeya only chuckled, having no trouble whatsoever carrying your weight. "Yes yes, what about him?"

"How... can he be so... fuckin' oblivious..." You groaned, burying your face in the fluff of his coat. Kaeya nodded his head in agreement, "I'm honestly surprised myself, I thought that you hitting on him shamelessly would send signals but I don't know how it flew over his head." His comment only made you feel even more miserable, almost tripping over nothing. Diluc wasn't safe either, almost stumbling over a pile of crates at what Kaeya said. You? Hitting on him? Wait— when? Diluc had no idea—

"Seriously... who tells someone they're so pretty and shit all the damn time...?"

...Oh.

"You are so determined too! Other ladies who tried to get his attention always get disheartened and lose interest once he turns them down."

"I always go to his tavern whenever I can..."

"You talk to him, and I don't care if that's the bare minimum. I'm genuinely impressed you've even made him say a simple yes or no the first few days you've talked."

"Surely he... must've noticed how smitten I am..."

He accidentally lit a crate on fire.

"Oh honey, I doubt it."

You held onto Kaeya tighter, complaining to him about Diluc, a look of exasperation gracing your pretty features, before ultimately passing out in his hold, too drunk to go on. Kaeya stopped in his tracks, a small amused smirk on his lips as he turned his head to the side, staring into the darkness. "Dear me, it seems like I've got errands to do." He says to the shadows. Diluc could only cross his arms with a sigh, stepping out where he hid, eyes narrowed at Kaeya. "Oh! Diluc! I didn't know you were there! Can you be a dear and take him home for me?" Kaeya smiled innocently, already passing your unconscious body into his arms without waiting for his reply, including your house keys.

"Hold on, I don't—" Diluc tried to refute, but he carefully laced his arm under your legs, picking you up with both his arms, glaring at Kaeya, only to be cut off.

"Oh, yes you do! You've walked him home before!" Diluc raised his brow slightly, surprised he even knew of that. "He tells me everything, don't get jealous now~" And with that, Kaeya walked away, leaving Diluc a flustered and agitated mess, while you nuzzled close to his chest, sleeping away. Nevertheless, he carried you all the way to your house, unlocking it with the keys Kaeya entrusted to him, and laid you gently on your bed. He felt his hands shake when he shed a layer of your clothing to try and help you breathe a little easier, then tucked you in nicely.

Diluc wanted to leave as quickly as possible, no matter how much he wanted to admire you for a bit longer, or to slip into your bed right next to you and possibly hold you throughout the night, but he shouldn't. Especially from what he heard a while ago. He still hasn't been able to process the truth he'd found out. Just being in your mere presence makes him so embarrassed and ashamed he hasn't been able to properly recognize your rather obvious affection for him, but once he turned his back on you, he felt a tug on his wrist, pulling him towards you and he fell. Arms on both sides of your head, propping himself up to prevent him from crushing you, jaw slacked when he felt your warm hands cup his face, drawing him close to you until he could feel your hot breath against his lips, brushing lightly against each other.

He almost jerked away from you and he was sure that his cheeks were as red as his hair. Diluc was so stiff above you, and it seemed like you caught wind of it even when you were drunk, so you pulled away, blinking your eyes sleepily. "Mmm... Wish I could kiss you right now..." You mutter, rubbing circles with your thumb on his cheeks, before nodding off back to sleep.

Easy to say that it has been quite awkward for the next few days, with you worriedly asking if he's okay, and him, shying away every time you get close, face completely red.

It doesn't help that Kaeya's been visiting more with a knowing smirk directed at him.

You fell first.

You were a well-liked rookie knight in the Knights of Favonious. One of Mondstadt's favorites, if you will. Everywhere you'd go, from children to the elderly, they'd crowd you, often asking for your help or just having a chat with the handsome knight. While you were usually calm and collected, with a pretty smile etched on your lips without fail and a soft, tranquil aura that surrounded your figure, you were quite the character.

A talkative one, but never loud. Words flowed from your tongue smoothly like a sweet caress on their ears, as if you always intended to lull them into a peaceful slumber. There was a sense of authority when you walked, each step holds confidence, and this unwavering bravery you display against any situation. People compared you to the cold, but suave Cavalry Captain, Kaeya. But instead of stating your differences, they constantly say that both of you were like long lost brothers, always getting along and seen talking to one another, with bright smiles on their faces and laughing away. Though the only stark difference between the two of you was that while Kaeya is a man full of secrets hidden behind his honeyed words, you were similar to an open book, never holding back on your honesty, whether it's the beautiful truth or brutal, harsh reality.

People would say that your personality had always fit your Vision, which was Hydro. Even if you were still but an amateur knight, you held your position flawlessly, always acting without haste and yet completing missions as if you were made for it. You hold your peers in high regard, respect your country's Archon, Barbatos, wholeheartedly, and help those in need. Like the never-ending flow of a stream, the pure water cleanses Mondstadt of its dirt, quenching the thirst of people who desperately need it, and reflects a myriad of colors under the rays of the sun. As still as a river, flowing quietly, a rivulet that carries a sense of serenity.

So for the fabled Mondstadt's favorite knight to fall in love with the handsome, but the dull owner of Dawn Winery, Diluc Ragnvindr, was such a wonder to the people, whispers of your love to the closed-off man being carried into the winds of Barbatos. It was embarrassing, to say the least; you thought that you were secretive enough about it, but at that point in your life, you've finally accepted how others perceive you: an open book. Fortunately, and unfortunately, Diluc himself has no idea that you were so blatant about your affections toward him, and always took it in a friendly manner.

Kaeya always makes fun of both you and Diluc in this conundrum. You, because of your predictable taste— he's always told you that you'd take a liking toward his brother— and inability to be secretive of your emotions, and Diluc, for his unexpected obliviousness towards your advances.

"Perhaps he knows and he is not interested in me..." You muttered under your breath, the smell of alcohol clinging onto your clothes and your vision was slowly swirling in the colors of your surroundings, a headache impending. "I'm a man after all, and a part of the Knight of Favonious at that... You told me he hates us..." Face behind your hands, Kaeya just laughed teasingly at your pathetic display.

"My my, this is why people say you're incapable of keeping secrets. You're spilling your love for him while you're drunk." He smirked while he took the glass of wine off your hands when you moved to take another sip, deciding you'd had enough for the night. "You're such a lightweight and always a delight to drink with!"

All he heard from you was your irate grumbles after you laid your forehead against the table, hands beside your head. Kaeya let out a sigh, an amused but concerned smile stretching his lips as he put a reassuring hand on your shoulder. "Now don't beat yourself up so quickly. Diluc is just... Well, quite distant on everything and he's not one for idle chit-chat, but I've noticed that he's somewhat allowed himself to entertain your musings." Kaeya's expression lightened when you lifted your head up from the table, with a tiny hopeful spark in your eyes. "Our relationship may be quite strained, but we've shared a brotherhood strong enough for me to still at least recognize bits of his behavior."

Opposite what Kaeya expected, you only plopped your head back onto the table, soliciting a chuckle from your captain and patting your head. Though he flicked the top of your head when you tried to grab your glass of alcohol. "Even if I'm not so fond of him, you have my full support." That made your heart swell, leading you to rely on your captain a bit more. To an extent of course.

Residents of Mondstadt would often question you; why did you fall in love with Diluc in the first place? With a bashful smile and a dismissive wave of your hand, your reply would be the same. "The similar reason as others who have taken a liking to Mr. Diluc." But it was obvious it was more than that. For you, it was quite easy to discern the identity of the Darknight Hero. You've assumed others knew already, like the Acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonious, Jean, and perhaps even Kaeya— the rumored Darknight Hero was Diluc, after all.

The moon shone its faint light onto the streets of Mondstadt. Quiet and empty, although from afar, you could hear the chattering of people in taverns drinking and partying. When darkness engulfs the day and people return to their homes, it was always quite peaceful, some would be compelled to walk through the empty streets for a soothing moment. Not for you though. Just because night fell doesn't mean the filthy vermin of Mondstadt wouldn't be prowling around. In fact, they seem to wander in the dark, for amongst the shadows where they belonged. So, while most of the knights would be off to their nightly rest or finish up the last of their patrols, you keep watch up on the roofs, hidden and waiting.

You have been doing so ever since you've become a part of the Knights of Favious, baffled that the knights' nightly routines weren't up to your expectations. And you get it; knights needed their rest and throughout the day, they've done multiple arduous tasks. So you took it upon yourself to defend Mondstadt in the shadows all by yourself. How hard could it be? What you didn't anticipate is that you'd have a nightly partner, and that is the rumored Darknight Hero.

Gossip was usually brought along by the wind, spreading faster than you can blink, so it's often you've heard of the Darknight Hero. Though the identity was hidden, during one of your nightly patrols (that you've assigned to yourself), you've unveiled who it was upon witnessing a certain red-haired man, with a claymore in his hands and bursts of flames briefly spouting life into the dark alleyway as the bodies of multiple Fatui soldiers drop down to the ground. Eyes wide, you had made noise from where you stood, toppling over crates behind you. In an instant, his blade was on your neck.

As soon as you made eye contact, you could tell he recognized you. How couldn't he? You're one of Mondstadt's favorites, so he drew his weapon away, gaze scrutinizing when your shock subsided into curiosity, head slightly tilted to the side as you glanced at the bodies he left behind. "Hm, I suppose the descriptions of the Darknight Hero fit had I thought about suspecting Mr. Diluc." You mused, hands on your hips as he began to pick on his left glove, keeping a watchful eye on you.

"What is a knight doing roaming around alleyways late at night? Aren't patrols finished at this point and time?" Diluc queried, crossing his arms as he observed you from afar with a frown on his face, poking the bodies laid on the stone road. "Especially in areas like these..."

Humming, in a thought, you glanced at the man standing not too far from you. And if someone were to ask you; what was the exact moment you realized that you'll be falling for a man like him? It would be this. Moonlight cast behind him, highlighting the pretty scarlet hair that cascaded down his forehead and cheeks, and ruby eyes, though calculating and cool, you could see fire dancing in them from the intensity of his gaze. While his dark clothing blended with the darkness of the night, the Vision that hung on his belt radiated a faint orange glow that illuminated the spot where he stood, mixing with the cool, bluish hue of the moon. Strokes of blues from the moon beautifully contrasted his fiery hair, and subtle hues of orange further accentuated his figure in the dark. Your breath got stuck in your throat as your eyes never left the stunning visage that is Diluc Ragnvindr. It was as if he was painted by a famous artist, both unreal and real at the same time. You hadn't even realized you'd prolonged your staring at the man until you heard him uncomfortably clear his throat.

Immediately regained your composure, you finally gave him a coherent answer. "I've noticed that as well upon observing our schedules, so I decided to take patrols on my own." You admitted, helping him clean up the mess he's left without a complaint. "I understand that I could've talked to Grand Master Jean about it, though I... You can say I'm still a tad shy due to my rookie status." A sheepish smile stretched your lips whilst you rubbed the back of your neck, refusing to look once more at Diluc, for you fear that you might get stuck in a daze if you dare to take another peek at him, so you were unsure of how he reacted at that.

"I see... No wonder why the streets have been... Peaceful lately, though it still reeks of criminals... It has been easier." Diluc murmured under his breath, and you turned your head toward him so fast you almost hurt your neck. Diluc Ragnvindr, known for his bitter tongue when spoken to if it wasn't business related and rough, sharp edges that would cut you if you aren't careful enough, complimented you? Now, you were aware that Diluc may be more than the surface level of his personality, but you knew that Kaeya would have a similar reaction if he heard these unfamiliar words he easily spoke.

It wasn't completely directed at you, but you still felt heat rushing to your cheeks, flustered as you averted your gaze away from him, hands pressed against your cheeks. "O-oh, is that so?" You ungracefully stuttered, but Diluc didn't seem to mind, only nodding in confirmation. "I suppose not all knights laze about; at least you keep this nation safe even in the shadows." And with a silent agreement, the two of you had become partners of the night, scaling every corner of Mondstadt together.

After that, you began to visit Angel's Share more and more often just to talk to Diluc, trying to win his attention, and perhaps just to at least hear his voice even if he barely spoke to you. And it didn't go unnoticed by anyone who caught wind of your rather obvious attraction to the bartender, especially a certain bard that enjoys drinking. You always end up embarrassing yourself in front of Diluc when you try to talk to him when the people in the tavern start singing sappy love songs with Venti. Seriously, how can he not get the gist of your evident desire for him?

The first few times you visited Angel's Share for Diluc, he shut you down, telling you time and time again that conversations without a sense peeve him, but Kaeya encouraged you to keep pursuing him, though you aren't sure if it's for his own entertainment seeing you rarely fumble and Diluc's imperviousness or genuine support for you. It could be both, you assumed. Nevertheless, you've always tried to chat with him, even during your nightly routines when there wasn't an imminent danger. And you are lucky enough to garner a few replies from Diluc. Though it wasn't much, often just a short answer, you were elated at the progress.

Eventually, you've gotten to know Diluc through the many days you've spent together. You also took note of his words, growing longer and rather more lax and casual as days go by, finally allowing you to just sit across from him on the counter while he simply served customers. You tried not to get your hopes up too high. In your eyes, he's very admirable; passionate, like the flames he wields along with his claymore, blazing with the desire to protect the country he cherishes the most. Though, like fire, his heat can simmer down to comforting rushes of warmth, crackling with sporadic gentleness. It's honestly infectious, igniting a similar burning devotion for Mondstadt, dedicating your work as a knight.

You suppose you owe it to Diluc to inspire you so much that you've climbed the ranks faster than anyone, close to achieving the title 'Cavalry Captain'.

Whenever his lips twitch upwards slightly whenever you talk about something random, your heart explodes with glee and you find yourself stumbling over your words once more. He'd offer a gloved hand to you whenever he wanted to lead you somewhere, the brief touch making you so flustered you have to look away from him the rest of the night, confusing the poor man. His voice, soothing and gentle when he speaks to you, his utmost attention over whatever you say now you've piqued his interest over the past few weeks, sparks lighting his eyes, and— man you've fallen quite hard for him, haven't you?

Diluc has completely ruined the calm flows of water in your heart, waves of conflict and urges for reaching further within your reach toward him crashed inside your soul the more you indulge yourself with your yearning for him. And when the people of Mondstadt thought nothing could faze the aspiring Cavalry Captain, nothing could've prepared them for the young man to be so muddled at the one thing everyone was weak against; love.

Though it all changed during one fateful night in Angel's Share. For some odd reason, you've sat next to Venti and a couple other regulars of the tavern, laughing along whenever the tone-deaf bard begins to sing. It was just as lively as other nights, drinking alcohol until the burn creeps up from your neck to your cheeks, breaths laced with the intoxicating smell, and minds clouded with nothing but the enjoyment of the night. Unfortunately, with how loud you were chatting with one another, it caught a certain bartender's attention.

"You should totaaaally shoot your shot!" Venti wraps an arm around your shoulder, droplets of his drink spilling onto your clothing but you were too drunk to even notice, letting the bard cling onto you whilst you drank your own drink. "You're like, soooo handsome! Women are aaaall over you... Men too!" He slurred, downing a whole glass in one go. Even in your drunk state, you found it in yourself to scoff at his words, shaking your head in disagreement as you shakily poured yourself another glass.

"No no, I agree with him! Not a lot draws his attention like you do!" One of them says, a big grin on his face as the rest of them nodded, further attempting to encourage you. But alas, it was all for naught, the knight known for his bravery only let a frown overcome his lips, sighing in frustration. "He always sees it as friendly advances... I'm always trying to talk to him... Help him with his work... We've even spent time together outside..." With a dramatic whine, you let your head land on Venti's shoulder as the room slowly began to spin. "How can he be so oblivious...?"

Venti momentarily put down his drink to cross his arms, pouting at how the once valiant knight who could take upon any task given to him, was now a flustered, drunken mess of a man who struggles to deal with love. What a shocker honestly, Venti thought you'd be more of a charmer like Kaeya. Never truly judge a book by its cover. "Then be more upfront with him! The guy needs all the confirmation that you're literally head over heels for him!" Chattering full of agreement spread across the table, but you still stubbornly refused, shaking your head.

"Yeah? What if he knew and this is just his way of reminding me he isn't interested?" You hid your face in your hands, a little embarrassed with how Venti worded his previous statement, the tips of your ears burning. "He doesn't like me at all, can't we just leave it at that?" You murmur pathetically to yourself, scrunching your face as a pounding headache quickly takes over.

"I don't think so," A new voice piped into the conversation. Immediately, all heads turned to the newcomer, only to freeze as if they were caught red-handed when they realized it was the man of the topic itself; Diluc Ragnvindr. You let out a strangled noise, sobering up right away at the sight of him, snapping back at your senses while others coughed uncomfortably onto their fists, acting innocent. It clearly caught him off guard with how many people have turned to look at him, so he awkwardly picked on his left hand and focused his gaze on your hazy eyes. You couldn't tell if it was just the alcohol, but you were having trouble reading his expression, heart beating hard against your chest that you're sure that Venti could hear it.

"H-huh?" Was all you could manage, eyes wide and lips pressed on a thin line. Everyone at the table has grown silent to listen to the conversation between the two of you and hopes this is the moment you've all been waiting for, on the edge of their seats as they watched in anticipation. You were hopeful for once, leaning towards Diluc. "What... do you mean by that?" You added, a little breathless, straightening up in your seat.

"I'm certain that Kaeya would reciprocate your affections for him."

For a moment, the tavern was still. If a pin were to be dropped, you could certainly hear it. All eyes stared incredulously at the man that stood before them, jaws wide open. Diluc's frown deepened at their reactions and he shifted his weight on his foot to the other, very confused but before he could speak up once again, Venti busted out laughing, toppling over to the ground and everyone else soon followed, slapping their knee and wiping away tears. Angel's Share came back to life with a single sentence, regaining it's lively atmosphere and speaking of words so slurred that even Diluc couldn't even comprehend them, only hearing your name and his briefly.

There was a smile on your lips whilst everyone laughed and drank to your dismay, though it was obvious even to Diluc that it was very strained.

"O-oh my gods!" Venti wheezed, climbing back on the seat next to you, wrapping his arm around your shoulder, trying his best to hold back his laughter, and offering you a glass of alcohol, which you eagerly accepted with a devastated expression on your face. "This is too funny! I've never laughed so hard in my life!" He continued to laugh, lightly shaking you in his arms. You could only let out an annoyed groan, a hand on your face whilst you downed a whole shot, face and chest burning both from embarrassment and the alcohol. "If Sir Kaeya was here, he'd be dying!"

Diluc has never been so confused in his life.
