Here’s your Kaeya and Diluc angst/comfort!
It’s not as whumpy as I wanted it to be, but I love it, and I hope you do too!
“Captain! Captain!” He heard a voice scream.
One by one, his team was getting picked off.
“CAPTAIN KAEYA!” He heard their pleas, “HELP!”
Their cries for help. His vision was blurry, and his body staggered in pain. How much longer could he keep going?
“Must- keep…. fighting…” He muttered, struggling to hold his sword.
It was raining, which was supposed to give him an advantage- but who would expect a rogue Ruin Hunter would appear in the middle of Wolvendom Woods?
His team certainly did not.
“C-Captain! What do we-”
The voices- the fear and terror.
He couldn’t help them. He couldn’t even help himself.
As the screams died down, and the rain and thunder pounded in his ears- he felt his body become lighter.
Was this it? Was he dying? After everything- the traitor meets a cruel end. Was it really cruel though? Such a fate must be fit for someone like him. He was losing consciousness- he knew that much. He tried to stay up, but he knew that resistance was futile. His wounds were too much to bear, and the Ruin Hunter wasn’t letting up. It sharpened its weapon, ready to strike the last man standing.
“I’m sorry.” He muttered.
He didn’t quite know who exactly he was apologizing to. To his teammates, who he failed when they needed him? Was it to Jean; whom he failed as a captain? Or to Diluc? For failing him as a brother? Maybe to Crepus; for failing him as a son.
It didn’t matter who. He failed all of them. Even his own father, who abandoned him.
His life was a failure. A waste. And he was sorry to anyone who knew him.
His body hit the ground- it didn’t hurt nearly as much as the other wounds he had.
And as he closed his eyes, he felt warm…
He also saw light. Was it “the light”? Like when you die? No… it was… red… and flaming…
He didn’t expect to wake up. Nor did he expect to be on a cart, rolling towards Dawn Winery.
Oh… Here I am… once again…
It was bittersweet, in a way. How he was bleeding out, being taken towards the place where he had first been abandoned.
He couldn’t speak- only look around. He caught sight of the brooding red-haired man that was wheeling him back. Only… he didn’t look so brooding… Was it a trick of his near-death hallucinations, or was Diluc…
He couldn’t form many thoughts before he blacked out again.
The next time he woke up, he was inside of Dawn Winery, laying on a fancy red sofa. He only hoped it was red before he got there.
He realized he was awake enough to hear speaking, but only bits.
“Found him… tell Jean… others… only survivor…”
The words rang through his ears. His stomach dropped.
It didn’t matter if he lived or died through this experience. All that mattered was that he had to carry the knowledge that he failed his team. A bunch of excellent knights… gone. Dead. And it was his fault. It was always his fault- Crepus was his fault- Losing his brother was his fault-
Why did he have to be such a failure?
He couldn't tell if it was blood or a tear that dripped down his cheek. It was his right eye too. Maybe the world thought he needed a real reason to wear his eye patch.
He didn’t realize that the conversation he overheard was now over. He only noticed that when Diluc started to approach him.
“Kae…” He muttered.
A nickname he hadn’t heard in so long… Diluc must’ve thought that he was still asleep.
“I… I’m sorry… For everything. You… you’re a great knight, really. You don’t need to be so hard on yourself all the time. I know the front that you put up. A respectable knight who has everything together. But that's not the real you… Not the one I know at least.”
Kaeya kept his eyes and mouth closed, but holding his “unconscious” expression was difficult.
You don’t need to apologize… all of it was my fault.
“You’re gonna blame yourself for all this, I know you will, but… it's not your fault. No one would expect a Ruin Hunter to pop up in those woods. And no one would expect you to take it on, especially since you weren’t prepared for a fight. I’ve already sent some people out to retrieve the other knight's bodies and I've got a hawk sending a message to the Acting Grand Master. By the time you wake up… you’ll be back in Mondstadt.”
Kaeya had half the mind to get up and protest him that moment. He wanted to speak to him. To tell him everything that he felt.
The other part of him wanted to stay silent. To wait and listen.
But no part of him wanted to miss the chance to speak to his brother.
“I don’t know why I’m still talking to you. You’ll be briefed on all this when you can actually hear people. I just… I guess I wanted to give us both some comfort. I get to talk to you without your mask, and… you can listen.”
He heard Diluc take a deep breath. It… quivered.
“It wasn’t… easy, Kaeya… losing both you and father on the same day… You must know now that your timing wasn’t… great. But… Kae, if I had the chance to go back and change everything, I would.”
Now this wouldn’t have been Kaeya’s chosen time to “awaken” from his slumber, but his body had other plans.
He shot up, coughing as if he was trying desperately to lose a lung.
He heard Diluc gasp a bit, then saw him stand.
“Argh-” He grumbled, wrapping his arms around his waist.
“Here.” Diluc offered him a rag, to wipe up the blood that shot from his mouth.
Kaeya took a moment to cough some more, then laid back on the couch.
“Are you alright? How do you feel? Adelinde, can you bring me a glass of water-?” Diluc bombarded him with questions, sitting back down.
“I-I'm fine… I'm fine. You sound like-” He coughed some more, deciding to just sit up instead.
“Dad?” Diluc finished.
“...Yeah…” Kaeya muttered, looking away.
There was silence.
Kaeya observed his now wrapped wounds. His hand reached for his right eye.
Diluc looked away, fiddling with his hands.
“It's not that bad, right?” Kaeya jokes.
Diluc didn’t look at him.
More silence.
“…Maybe… Maybe I should just get going-” He said.
“No. No no no, you are staying on this couch till someone arrives to take you back to the city.” Diluc said, standing up and blocking the couch.
“I’ll be fine.” Kaeya countered.
“Fine!? You’re literally bleeding everywhere!” Diluc said, frustratingly.
“Better for me to bleed on the grass instead of your couch.” Kaeya muttered, attempting to stand.
Diluc sighed, stepping away.
“Fine, you can leave, only if you can manage to get to the door all by yourself without falling over.”
Kaeya scoffed before taking one step and collapsing.
He then started to cough even more, but this time, he couldn’t breath in.
“Kaeya!” Diluc exclaimed, helping him up immediately. “I expected you to fall over, but not to immediately start dying!”
“Here, Master Diluc.” Adelinde said, handing him a glass of water.
Adelinde helped Kaeya back to sitting on the couch, and Diluc handed him the water.
He downed it, only taking seconds to breathe.
“Careful- I don’t want you vomiting everywhere too.” Diluc scolded.
Kaeya set the glass on the table beside him.
“Sure thing, Master Diluc.” He muttered, sounding upset or angry, like his voice was filled with disdain.
“Don't say it like that…” Diluc muttered.
“Like what?” Kaeya asked snarkily.
“Like you hate me.” Diluc said, looking him in the eye.
“Yeah, okay…” Kaeya said, looking down.
Diluc got up to leave.
I don’t hate you. I don’t hate you. I don’t hate you. Please don’t leave-
“...I don’t hate you.” Kaeya said.
Diluc turned to him.
“Kaeya-”
“No. Let me speak…” He said, his expression was… sad.
“I don’t hate you, or what you do. I might’ve thought I hated you for a while, but I didn’t. Truth is… I've… missed you. I've missed my brother. And I know I’ve screwed up. I’ve hated myself ever since Crepus died. Ever since I ruined this family. And… and I would do the same thing.”
Diluc was speechless.
“The… ‘same thing’?” He asked.
“If I had the chance to go back in time and change things, I would. But part of me… if given the chance, would have never let us meet. Then maybe you’d still have your position in the knights, and maybe you’d still be happy and bright, and maybe you’d still have your dad-”
He hadn’t noticed the tears that started to roll down his cheeks.
He also didn’t notice that Diluc had started to approach him- till he was enveloped in a hug.
“Our dad…” Diluc whispered.
“....right…” Kaeya smiled, sniffling.
He wrapped his hands around Diluc, nuzzling his head into his shoulder.
“I’ve missed you too. But I guess I don’t need to tell you that, since i'm assuming you were awake during my whole monologue…”
“Yeah, I was…”
“Always the better actor.” Diluc said, exiting the hug.
“Of course,” Kaeya laughed, “Someone had to sneak us into the Knights training sessions, and your fake crying wasn’t going to cut it.”
“Yeah yeah…”
Link to the fic on Ao3 if you wanna give it kudos there!

There he goes again. Asking for another glass of wine, swearing that “this is the last time” (of course its not) and that “he will pay for it” (of course he won’t)
Diluc might easily throw him away and he knows he CAN, because once he “was blessed with opportunity” to take this drunk little shit upstairs and bard was light as a feather in his hands.)
The tavern owner for sure can glare deadly and furriously, so everyone will be afraid of coming even closer to his bar.
But.
Unfortunately for Diluc.
It doesnt work with that bard.
This gremlin-like God can just make a puppy eyes, whine with his melodic voice and, never mind, Diluc is totally helpless and too soft.
Is that a true power of the Anemo Archon?
Barbatos dammit.

Holy fuck, am I actually working on updating my Reader x Yandere Zhongli fic?
Why yes, yes I am.
Haven't heard about this and are interested? Check out the story so far, here!
Fun fact: this was my first ever fanfic post on AO3, and it blew me up so quick. I'm so thankful to you readers for giving this a shot!
Also, forgive the pacing, poor wording and all that. This was legit my first posted fic, and I've learned so much since then, so some parts might feel cringe, or maybe that's just me (;´༎ຶД༎ຶ`)

a random fanfic writer
AYEEE! I finally gained courage to write stuff in AO3! I am here to promote bc idk if y’all feel like reading certain stuff, I might provide :3
My usual scope of writing:
modern AU, royalty AU, fantasy (obv), lore-wise, cross-overs
angst 70%, smut 25%, fluff 5% (depends on my mood)
i guess hurt and comfort too
mlm and wlw
ships are in the tags
mostly, if not all, third POV
word range: 500-3000
mostly one-shots, series are a pain
So if you’re into pain and suffering that’s very gay, ehe (or smut). I currently have 4 works posted, and a ton of drafts in the making- Hopefully, I get to share more of my work and improve as well ^^
You can find me on ao3 as: mimoonflower

I'd like to reintroduce a re-vamped old fic! Now with major edits, and there was no one left !
Tumblr media
"Kazuha’s grief was nothing like the stories. Kazuha saw the sun shine in a cloudless sky and didn’t curse it for not matching his mood. He did not clutch desperately onto the days hoping they’d stay static and let him grieve. Months pass him by and he simply felt… still. It’d felt like everything had gone downhill and then stayed there. Kazuha’s grief was not poetic, it was just sadness. Or maybe that was just what losing a vision did to you– Kazuha really didn’t know."

Hurting Is Changing
Little headcanon beforehand that doesn’t have much to do with the fic, but I love it anyway: that Wanderer has something similar to DID where he could wake up with different programming sometimes
Like, maybe he will glitch or experience a nightmare and wake up feeling different.
I think the different versions of him would be the different stages in his life; Proper Puppet (Ei’s Prototype Puppet), Clueless Puppet (Friends with Niwa/Tatarasuna), On The Brink (Friends with Sick Child), Murderer Complex (During Fatui) and Healing (Post-Story Quest)
Now onto the actual fic!
It was a fine morning in the Sanctuary of Surasthana. The birds were singing, the sun was bright, the air flowed softly… Yet something wasn't right.
Nahida found it odd that Wanderer had not yet gotten up from his ‘sleep’. He couldn't really sleep, but she said that to help him feel more human. It was more so… recharging.
He usually woke up before she went for her morning walk, something she did to talk to her people and just feel free. She loved the feeling of the ground under her feet, and the wind on her face. She loved seeing her people, and most of them felt the same. Wanderer never joined her on these walks. He didn’t like the mortal world much, even after his ‘reform’. He hated being reminded of everything in his past. Being amongst the mortals did just that.
“Wanderer?” Nahida knocked on his door.
She had refurnished the Sanctuary so that they could both have places to sleep, and even got a kitchen added for eating. Otherwise, she got her entertainment from going outside and Wanderer… well, she didn't really know what he did when she wasn't there.
She heard no response from him, but didn’t want to just barge it. Wouldn’t that be rude? But what if he was in trouble or hurt?
I could peer into his head… see if he's dreaming… She thought.
She didn’t even have a moment to think before she heard a yell from his room.
“Wanderer!” She exclaimed, barging into the room, where she saw him… crying?
He was sitting up in his bed. He looked scared- no, terrified. His eyes were wide, and his body was still. He was filled with fear.
“Wanderer? Are you okay?” She asked, stepping closer with caution.
His eyes didn’t move, but his mouth did.
She hadn’t noticed it, but he seemed to be speaking. It was just murmurs at first, but as she got closer, she could hear it more clearly, along with the fear that shook his words.
“I- I didn’t mean to- I didn’t- I'm not like that anymore- I don't wanna hurt anyone anymore-” He muttered with fear, his words coming a mile a minute.
“Oh no-” Nahida gasped, rushing over to him.
She reach for his arm but he pulled away, pressed his back against the wall and pulled his arm up to brace himself.
“D-don't-! Don't come any closer-” He shouted, “I'm a monster! I- I am a- mistake- a defect- that's all I am-”
His voice trembled.
This truly worried the Archon as she stepped back to allow him room. He had been doing so well- the traveler was helping him recover and stay on the path of good, and even brought him joy. So what happened? What had caused this?
He must’ve had a nightmare… She thought.
“-thats all I will ever be!” He said it as if he was trying to convince himself rather than tell someone else.
“Wanderer, its okay! You're okay! You're with me, Nahida, remember?” She tried to soothe him.
He seemed to calm down with the mention of her name.
“N-nahida?” He asked, his arm lowering slightly.
“Nahida…” He said again, his eyes taking in every detail of her face.
“I… I killed you too…” He whispered.
It took the Archon a moment to register what he had said.
“You… what?” She asked, taking the moment to step a bit closer.
“You- You were dead- E-everyone was dead- Traveler- all of them-” He started spiraling once more.
“I didn’t want to- I didn’t- I didn’t want to hurt anyone-” He grabbed his head, his fingers digging into his head.
“Hey! Its okay, its okay… Look at me.” Nahida said, climbing onto the bed and taking his hands to hold them.
“I am alive, Wanderer, and nothing bad has happened. I'm okay, and you’re okay…” She told him, looking into his eyes.
His breathing steadied slowly, but soon enough he was able to think clearly.
Nahida helped him out of his room, and into the kitchen area. It wasn’t used much but was good for a snack every once and a while. Like sleep, Wanderer didn’t really need to eat either, but he could anyway. This usually led him to eating whatever-whenever, since it didn’t matter to him.
As he sat at their small but comfortable table, he didn’t really do much. His breathing was shallow, but he wasn't shaking much anymore. Nahida wished that she could read his mind, but knew he would know if she tried.
“How… how did I even dream?” He asked Nahida, who was now preparing some coffee for him.
“I think… maybe it is representative of your growth from a puppet to a human!” Nahida smiled.
“You never told me that the transition would be so… painful… Then again, I suppose I deserve this…”
Nahida looked softly to the boy, who seemed to just be staring off into nothingness. His eyes looked… dead.
“You’re on a long path, Wanderer. But you’re doing wonderfully in your rehabilitation.” She said, giving him the cup of coffee.
“I'm very proud of you.” She smiled, his eyes meeting hers.
“Uh… thanks…” He said, taking the cup and looking away.
She saw his lips curl into a slight smile as he took a sip of the warm liquid.
“You’re quite welcome.”
They sat in silence for a bit till Wanderer put his cup down.
“I know its time for your morning walk. You can go, I’ll be fine.” He muttered.
“Actually, I think I wanna stay in today…” Nahida said, to which Wanderer gave her a suspicious look.
“Okay… Well I don’t really do much when you’re gone…” Wanderer said, taking another sip of his drink.
“Then we can do something together! How do you feel about puzzles?” She smiled excitedly.
Wanderer looked down at the Archon, but not in disgust or hatred… but with wonder.
“I… suppose that would be alright…” He said, standing to wash his now empty coffee cup.
“Great!” Nahida giggled, getting up to go find a puzzle.
Wanderer sighed as she did, standing over the sink. He felt… weird. Warm. But not like fire-warmth. It was different. He fixed himself, standing up straight.
As he heard her leave, his brain started to focus on… other things. Visions from his nightmare. Blood was… everywhere. The more he focused on it, the more the visions seemed to seep into reality.
“Stop it- stop thinking-” He told himself, “It's nothing… It doesn’t matter…” He muttered, running one hand through his hair.
Nahida’s smile disappeared as she turned the corner. She noticed the boys’ stance, his hands over his face… she knew that he likely wouldn’t tell her what was wrong. She hadn’t yet been seen by him, so she wanted to try her luck on reading his mind. She was curious and just wanted to help! So it was fine… right?
She decided to try her luck, reading his mind while he was distracted.
Just as she did, she heard him scoff.
“You aren’t gonna like what you hear.” He mutters, turning around.
“Ah- sorry…” She said, looking down at the puzzle box.
“Its fine… its just… for your own good.” he said, taking a seat back at the table.
“Right. Well then, lets do this puzzle! I got one of the Palace of Alcazarzaray! Built by Kaveh, an amazing architect here in Sumeru!!” She gushed, putting the puzzle on the table and sitting in her chair.
Wanderer watched as she got all of the pieces out and they started to put it all together. He actually found it… a bit calming… The images in his head started to dissipate. He felt better…
Nahida took in his non-brooding expression. She loved that she could help him, and was sure that in no time at all, they would get past the obstacles and he would be healthy and happy.
It’d be a long time till then, she was sure, but she was happy to be able to help. Maybe she could even introduce him to other people at some point, not just the Traveler…
“You’re staring…” Wanderer said, not looking up.
His voice wasn’t mean or annoyed. He was just… fine.
“Right-” She giggled, looking back down.
Wanderer didn’t know what she found funny, but just hearing her laugh… once more, his chest felt warm.
Give it love on Ao3 if you can/want!! :3
