    Summary

    She stood further back than the others, Oz hovering fretfully by her shoulder, with her bow held in a loose grip by her side. With her other hand, she pressed firmly to her abdomen, just above her right hip, and her parlour was pale. Paler than natural, paler than he'd ever seen her.

    Her gaze flickered up to them, then back down to her hand. She removed it from her side, carefully, hesitantly, and it came away slicked with an unmistakable red. Blood.

    It dawned on him in that instant. The bullet may have missed Bennett, but it hadn't missed Fischl.

    Diluc, Kaeya, Bennett and Fischl all team up to investigate a domain with suspicious Fatui activity. Not all of them make it out unscathed.

    Summary

    Genius Invokation TCG. It was a fun new card game that Diluc had the absolute pleasure of hosting for the losers that couldn't play at Cat's Tail. It was all Kaeya's fault - like most things are.

    Diluc sighed as he watched them play and they weren’t even playing it right. Like they had tossed all the rules in the air. It’s just a game. But still, couldn’t they at least try to play it correctly? They had made up their own rules and ideas and everything. It was annoying.
    Oh well, at least the day was almost over.

    “Master Diluc! You’re fighting Kaeya right now!” the kids said with a smile.
    “Diluc uses a phoenix wing flame attack one million!” the kid said, slamming the card onto the table.

    It's just a game. It's just a game.

    Summary

    If Diluc looked at this painting any longer, he was going to lose his shit.

    He needs to let this go before it festers, infects his heart and leaves him aching, sore, and broken again. He's burnt his heart out many times, yet flesh still threatens to grow from the ashes that stain his organs.

    Or, Diluc's lack of self care finally catches up to him.

    Summary

    Whumptober 2023 - Day 6 (Late)
    Prompt chosen: "It should've been me."
    -

    Diluc sat in the corner of his bedroom, still covered in blood, shaking as he stared at the wood. He didn't want to move. Images of what happened flashed through his mind and made him feel sick.

    He had to tell Kaeya.

    Sure, he would be mad, but he would understand in the end, wouldn't he? If Diluc explained why he did it, Kaeya would understand. He had to understand.

    The thought was naïve. He could never understand.

    "I am disowning you." Kaeya seethed, knuckles white as he gripped his sword.

    Diluc pushed himself to his shaky legs, eyes wide in disbelief. He thought his brother would comfort him and hold him close as he cried, but instead, he was bleeding, crying, and being driven out of Mondstat because of him.

     

    -

    In an alternative universe where, instead of Kaeya telling Diluc about his past, Diluc tells Kaeya that he had to mercy-kill Crepus. In a fit of rage, Kaeya disowns him and kicks him out of Mondstat. 6 years later, Diluc returns and guilt Kaeya had pushed down for all that time he was gone begins to resurface.

    Summary

    Sumeru was dangerous. Far more dangerous than Mondstat or Liyue, even worse than Inazuma. The Ruin machines were different. They had certain things about them that made Diluc feel sick to his stomach. They were eerily similar to a certain drake he had faced years ago on his birthday.

    Diluc’s mouth went dry seeing the machine activate. Then its mechanical wings opened, powering up fully. The machine rose into the air and stared down at Diluc.

    Ursa is dead. Ursa is dead.

    He tried to tell himself that it was just a ruin machine. He really did try.

    Summary

    Diona despised Diluc. She absolutely hated him with every fiber of her being. He was the devil in her eyes

    But when Draff forgets to pick her up from the Cat's Tail at night while it's pouring rain, Diluc offers to let her stay with him in Angel's Share for the night so she isn't stuck outside in the rain all night. Diona reluctantly agrees and learns that the man she has been relentlessly hating for years isn't as evil as she thought he was.

    Summary

    Kaeya's visible eye is wide and filled with an assortment of emotions Diluc can't quite place.

    "Are…are you real?" His voice is so faint and unsteady it breaks Diluc's heart all over again. Kaeya looks so young like this. Staring up at him with a look of fragile hope. He looks like the little brother Diluc remembers so fondly.

    "Yes, Kae. Yes, I'm real. I'm here. It's ok."

    or

    When Kaeya gets kidnapped by the Fatui, Diluc is forced to acknowledge how much he still cares for his estranged brother. Small steps towards reconciliation are made.

    Summary

    Then, there was a heavy knock at the door. Adelinde furrowed her brows, slowly getting up with her cup of tea. “Who could be knocking at this hour? It’s almost 9 o’clock and it’s still pouring rain.” She mumbled. The head maid opened the door and gasped, dropping her cup. Kaeya rushed over and his eyes widened.

    Diluc was standing there, covered head to toe in blood, eyes blown wide. Kaeya’s heart dropped.

    ----

    Diluc returns after 4 years. He has to get acclimated back into society, but finds it difficult. Especially with becoming the Dark Knight Hero and having more trauma than he had when he left.

    -

    They had finally caught him. They had captured the Delusion Thief, the Fatui Murderer, Diluc Ragnvindr.

    But now, what ever would they do with him?

    Rather, what would the Harbingers do with him?

    Summary

    Whumptober 2023- Day 4 (Late)
    Prompt chosen: Shock

    -

    Diluc had been there for months. He was exhausted and just wanted to go home, but Dottore decided he was the perfect subject to test his new technology on.

    The redhead immediately collapsed to the ground, coughing and gasping as the mechanism around his neck squeezed tightly. His whole body shook as the shock from it continued hitting him in waves. All he could do was writhe on the ground in pain, gasping and crying out in pain

    "My, my. That's very effective. It would be best if you got Capitano; he would have a field day with this technology. Is that all it can do?"

    Diluc couldn't breathe. His whole body ached.

    "You didn't like that, did you?" Dottore asked, as if Diluc was a small child.

    He wanted to go home.

    -

    Dottore, being the cruel man that he is, makes a shock collar to control Diluc. Even when Diluc is released and the collar is removed, it still manages to affect him in ways that are out of his control.

    Summary

    What would happen if someone’s vision was broken? Like the Vision’s stolen by the Vision Hunt Decree, it might go grey and be unusable. The person would lose their memory and ambition, and be a husk of who they once were.

    Kaeya walked into the Dawn Winery, predicting Adelinde coming up and bowing, being all polite before telling him, “The young master is upstairs in the master bedroom.” And he would hop up the stairs, skipping a step each time, before walking down the hall. Everytime he paused in front of the door, taking a deep breath. Then he would open the door to see Diluc.

    Clutching his broken pyro vision.

      Ch 2 blinked in surprise.

      "I know that it’s close, and those- those Fatui- fucks could know that! They- They could take you! If you're across country lines, unless we know for sure, we can't search their bases or risk any of our men going undercover!” Kaeya snapped and stuttered like he did when he was nervous or scared. Diluc frowned slightly, going around the counter and sitting next to him.

      A sigh left him, and he looked at him, "Even if I do get kidnapped, I'll make it back, one way or another, for your birthday. I've missed it for the past… what? 2 years since I've been back? I need to be here to celebrate it." Diluc said, nudging his arm with his elbow. "We can go to Starsnatch Cliff and paint. Like how Father did for your birthday one year."

       

      Cj 11 Let's leave him be for now. I'll— I'll talk to him in a bit," Kaeya said before walking out and going to his room. Kaeya released a breath he didn't know he was holding, running his hand through his hair. He knew he had to check in on his brother but didn't want to. He needed a break. Instead, he went into his room and shut the door behind him, sitting against it. His knees were pulled up to his chest, and he refused to get up again. Guilt ate away at him, and he wanted to cry as he realized he wasn't scared for Diluc.

      He was scared of him.

    Summary

    “...when was the last time you saw father?”
    “This morning. We all had breakfast together.”
    “Uh-huh…and what’s the date?”
    “March 1st, 1063,” Diluc answered without missing a beat. Kaeya’s arms dropped to his side, and his skin grew increasingly pale.
    “That’s—that’s not possible.”
    “Why?” Kaeya remained silent. Diluc took a shaky step forward. “Why, Kaeya?” The look in that crystalline eye almost scared Diluc. He’s not sure why, but something told him he really didn’t want to know the answer to that question.
    “Because father died on April 30th, 1058. He’s been dead for almost five years.”
    *****

    Two versions of Diluc end up in each others' worlds. One where Crepus never died, and one that we know all too well.
    The harsh reality of what could have been may be too much for them to handle.

    Summary

    "The church bells were still mixing in with their voices, but this time, Diluc was grateful for them. Barbatos had saved him from certain death. Despite everything, Barbatos had still protected him. He hummed the tune of the bells to himself, a small smile creeping on his face."

    Diluc and Venti meet after Diluc's return from Snezhnaya. After Diluc finds out Venti is in fact his god, he begins to wonder if his romantic feelings are justified. In the nation of freedom, is he truly free to love whoever his heart desires?

    Summary

    Diluc didn't like parties. Everyone knew that. He just wasn't a people person. If he received an invite to a large event, such as a gala or a fundraiser, he would show his face for 15 minutes before silently leaving.

    Yet here he was, standing in the corner of the Knight's ballroom with a glass of whiskey in his hand as he people-watched and listened to the music. Kaeya was making him stay, and if he didn't he would tell Adelinde, who had forced him to go.

    ───※ ·❆· ※───

    Diluc goes to a winter ball being hosted at the Knights' headquarters and gets reminded of the events that happened on his 18th birthday. It only goes downhill from there. Kaeya and Jean try to help.

    --

    “No, you don’t understand,” Diluc replies, “No one’s ever escaped him. He’ll come for me. I’ll be free just long enough to finally feel comfortable, to finally breathe and then he’ll come for me. I know it. I’m here on borrowed time. I’m always going to end up back there."

    Kaeya bites back the sob expanding in his chest.

    “Every time I hear a rustle outside, or someone knocks on the door unexpectedly, or I see a light on the road, I just know it’s him coming for me, and I can’t escape him, I can’t get away, I-”

    OR: When Diluc's leg is injured during his Darknight Hero work, Jean forces him to stay at Kaeya's apartment while he recouperates. But Diluc's traumatized, anxious, and paranoid... and Kaeya manages to inadvertently play right into his fears.

    Summary

    Diluc has been to hell and back, all at the hands of the same criminal organisation; The Fatui.

    Not even the endless bodies dropped at his feet as he worked his way through the ranks brought him retribution. More blood spilled than drinks poured at his tavern and it barely even got him close to those responsible for Crepus' death.

    But the fatui had gotten close to him. Too close.
    Enough to break his spirit yet again and leave him riddled with scars worse than ever before.

    He'd given up. There was only the suffering of those memories and revenge was futile.

    So what does he do when a harbinger walks into his bar and stokes the flames of that rage once more?

    Fire is a fickle thing; who knows which way it will spread?
