Diluc And Kaeya - Tumblr Posts

Surprise motherf*ckers I came back

Tbh I’m shocked too but ig inspiration hit me hard

When you realize you and your brother are slightly similar to Diluc and Kaeya

I main Klee, and have a habit of setting everything around me on fire as a result. Both in and out of combat. Don't ask.

He mains Chongyun, and freezes everything in sight when he can.(also uses Amber and Fischl to blow up explosive barrels whenever I'm near them)

When he fights; Nuke everything, mild difficulty, or flat out NOPE

When I fight; Nuke everything, get wrecked, or RUN

He is 80% DONE with my sh*t

He's the semi-sane one

I am the gremlin child(more so than he his sometimes)

He is better at gaming then I will ever be.

I may or may not have managed to sneak by a camp of enemies on more than one occasion.

I am chaotic in the way of "If I kill it before it kills me I'm fine!"

He's chaotic in the way of *walks up to enemy* "DELETE!" *enemy dies, leaves the rest to under-leveled me*

He also finds it fun to walk up to a powerful enemy and say "Look a new friend!" Then lead it straight to me despite the 20 level difference.

Irl he wears all black all the time. As well as several layers.

He and Diluc have the same hair length.

He's an edge lord

Irl I wear sweaters and fuzzy robes a lot.

I am a bisexual disaster

In game we both have 0 trust in each other.

Because I know he will lead me headfirst into a trap if given the chance. I've fallen for this more than once.

Because he knows I would set everything around him on fire when given the chance. It's already happened once.

How we're different

When fighting together(and not busy messing with the other) we make a pretty good team.

He uses Chongyun and Xingqiu.

I use Klee and Beidou.

We wreck most things

Poor bosses lol

He kept me alive when I was struggling and gave me tips on how the f*ck to use artifacts.

If I am really struggling, he wrecks it.

We are able to go about 20 minutes without going at each others throats.

We have a semi stable relationship

im not putting them thru severe trauma like I wanted to but ok 🙄

Diluc acting like he listens to his own advice😹😹😹😹loser

Ughhh they can be happyish i GUESS….

What the hell is up with red and blue twins hating eachother/having a rivalry/having family issues cuz what kind of pattern is happening

A few days ago, my best friend and I were playing genshin (we were fishing) and at some point a red and blue and later two blue fish appeared in the pond we were in so I had to comment ...

I don't know about you, but this is a gem.

Venti left Starbucks without paying. lol Genshin X Hypnosis Mic.

I can't finish the series 😭😭

A couple of our servers have gotten a bit overwhelmed, so we're taking some down time to give them a chance to catch up. We'll be back as soon as possible!

Forgotten

Part 1

Warnings: Massive character death (you and Crepus die), angst, Diluc and Kaeya fight, their backstory, more angst with a sprinkle of angst.

Note: I’m sorry I’m not perfect in writing 🤡

Here, a part two: https://dorothy-rainbird.tumblr.com/post/693380880375365632/forgotten

Summary: You die stopping your brothers form fighting, but somehow live? You lose all memory of them tho and get transported to another relam. And then you meet four years later.

How did this happen…?

Why did this happen?

The only reply he got was the sound of rain, completely soaking his clothes. The fluff of his long red hair gone. But he did not care. First he lost his father, got betrayed by his brother, then he lost you…you of all the people he was supposed to protect…but he ended up doing the exact opposite. What kind of a brother he was?

Now Diluc sits in front of your grave, which was right beside your father’s, and cries. He cries out apologies which he is not even sure that you can hear. He hopes you do.

It wasn’t good for Kaeya either. He remembers your scream. He remembers how you threw yourself between them fighting so that they don’t hurt each other. But now all you were was a memory to him. His only family is gone, his father is gone, his brother is gone and you were also gone.

He lets himself breakdown as well. He lets himself scream through tears. He lets himself know that now he was all alone in this world.

——————————————————————-——————————————————————-—————————————

It was a rainy day. You were indoors, reading a book next to the fireplace as Adelinde brushed your hair. It was almost dusk but your family still hasn’t arrived yet. It was big brother Diluc’s 18th birthday…were they busy somewhere? Maybe they are running late due to the weather! Hopefully they are fine….

The thoughts in your head stopped and were replaced by the gentle crackling fire. They sure are taking long though…

“Hey Adelinde?”

“Yes y/n?”

“Do you think everyone is okay?”

“Oh sweetie of course they are. They’ll be back anytime now, so don’t you worry!” She gave you a reassuring smile. Adlelinde has always been your mother figure and best friend. You loved hanging out with her. She always treated you like her own child and always comforted you. You smiled back at her. Yeah they probably got delayed by the rain, they’ll be back soon!

You two enjoyed the silence. Until it lasted…

Elzer came with a really worried face. It was as if he saw a ghost or something…

“Adelinde this is important, it’s about master Crepus.”

Why did I feel a pit in my stomach? It can’t be that bad right…? Please be safe father.

Adelinde stared at Elzer for a second. We exchanged lookes and she proceeded to leave the room with him. I sat there for a while. Why was Elzer so horrified? What happened? And then…

GASP

I heard Adelinde gasp right outside the door. I couldn’t sit there anymore. I carefully approached the door, and listened.

“How could this be?!? How did this even happen?!”

“I don’t know, they only told us that master Crepus died fighting Ursa the Drake!”

My heart fell into my stomach. The shock numbed me for a while. Father…is dead? How? When? A thousand questions flooded my mind. Everything started to feel hazy, that’s when I realised my eyes were watering. I caught more of the conversation.

“How should we give this news to y/n? They’re only 14…”

“I don’t think we should right now. They won’t take it well”

Ah. I quickly wiped my tears away and went back to sitting in my old position, pretending to read, trying my best to not seem as if I’m crying. After a few seconds they entered the room with matching pitiful expressions towards me.

“Y/n, sweetie could you go to your room if you don’t mind? Ther-“

“Alright”

I obediently got up before she could finish and headed upstairs to my room. They were staring at me. They were sorry for me I could tell.

As soon as I got in my room, I locked the door and started sobbing into my pillow. It was already night and the whole room was dark. I cried and cried until I fell asleep.

———————————————-

I woke up to voices downstairs. It was my brothers. Were they back…? It was still pretty dark outside my window. I assumed it’s late night. The voices however, got louder and louder until I could hear sounds of…shouts and weapons? What’s going on? Did somebody break into the mansion?!

BANG

There was a loud bang downstairs and if something just blew up! I jumped from my bed and went to investigate.

The moment I unlocked my door, I saw it. The horrifying sight.

Diluc and Kaeya, my brothers are fighting each other. Diluc is even using his vision on him! Kaeya also has a cryo vision??? They are both injured badly. WHY ARE THEY DOING THIS?!? THEY WILL KILL EACH OTHER AT THIS POINT.

“STOP WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!”

But my shouts fall dead to their ears. I start tearing up. Why aren’t they stopping?? How do I stop them???

And then, at the very last second, I knew how….it’s going to hurt but it’s going to stop them from hurting each other.

At the same time, my brothers got ready to charge at each other with their powerful element infused weapons. As soon as they did, I jumped.

I took all my courage to jump between them to block the attack. I closed my eyes. And just like that, everything went blank.

———————————————

They stared in muted horror. They DID NOT expect their little sibling to jump in the fight to save them. But it was too late. Now not even a small shred of their body remains…They’re dead.

“Y/N NOOOO”

How did this happen?

Why did this happen?

Part 2

Warnings: mentions of death, traveller almost dies, so does Paimon, foul language, violence, weird monsters not from Teyvat??

Notes: hahahah exams *dies*

Here part 1

Summary: You die stopping your brothers form fighting, but somehow live? You lose all memory of them tho and get transported to another relam. And then you meet four years later.

Four years later…

Location: Dawn Winery, Mondstadt

Time: 1:00 am.

Footsteps echoed in the dark halls. They belonged to none other than the Darknight hero. Why was he up so late though? God knows. The walking continues. Everybody is asleep except him, who just came back from his usual abyssal creature hunting. He still keeps walking…until he stops when his eyes land on a room at the end of the hall. A room that had been locked for the past four years. He forcefully tore his eyes away from that room. He’s already tired and doesn’t need the reminder of a tragedy.

———————————

Time: 8:23 am

Location: The Adventures Guild, Mondstadt City

“Ad Astra Abyssosque! Traveler, just the person who I was looking for!” Katheryne greeted them with a warm smile.

“Let Paimon guess…another super duper dangerous commission that needs the traveller’s help huh?” The floating fairy huffed and crossed her arms. Her guess was true though because that’s what has been happening for the past few times. The traveller merely gave a curious expression.“What is it about?” they asked.

“I’m glad you asked, this is a major commission and no other adventures, no matter how experienced, could not complete it. In fact, they are yet to be back.” Katheryne gave a sad expression.

“W-what do you mean “yet to be back”?! Did they get lost or something? Did they-“ Paimon gasped at the thought.

“Paimon, calm down it can’t be that bad, right?” the traveler tried to calm the panicking pixie but also fell into doubt. What is it this time?

“The condition of the adventures is unknown. We lost all contact with them and can’t tell wether they are dead or alive. It’s like they disappeared from the face of Teyvat.”

“EEEK! THATS SCARY AAHHH NOPE NOPE-“ Paimon shrieked and hid behind the traveler.

“Paimon we literally did fight god on a daily basis come on it can’t be that bad. Say Katheryne, what is this commission anyways?” the traveler asked. They were curious. Who knows? Maybe disappearing people could be some abyss problem. And where there is abyss, there is sibling. There is a small chance.

“Yes ahem, There has been suspicious activity going on in the thousand winds temple. The most we know is that there has been a giant pit with no end and that whoever falls in it never returns. A few abyss mages have also been spotted at this site. Other info…”Katheryne filled them with the details while traveler and Paimon got the worse déjà vú. They just came back from their adventure from the chasm. What’s with this place and cursed pits?!

But they did catch a glimpse of their sibling in that chasm…and there were abyss mages there so this is definitely their doing. Who knows, maybe they’ll find something else that’s useful on their quest to find their sibling.

“…is all I can fill you with regarding this commission. Do you wish to acce-“

“I accept this commission.” The traveler said. They were determined and confident that this will help them.

“TRAVELER WE JUST CAME BACK FROM A CURSED PIT WHY DO Y-“

“I knew I could count on you! Ad Astra Abyssosque traveler, good luck!” Katheryne gleefully wished them.

“STOP CUTTING PAIMON OFF!” Paimon angrily stomped her foot on air.

“Don’t worry Pai, it can’t be that bad!”

——————————————

Time: ???

Location: ???

It was really bad.

Why did they even accept this commission? Traveler and Paimon wonder as they are injured, surrounded and outnumbered by creatures they can’t even begin to describe.

They look like humans but horribly mutated. Some were giants with heads too large for their bodies. Some were small but had oversized or undersized limbs. Some had no limbs. Some were missing a whole half of their bodies. Some were just parts of bodies. All of them had one thing in common though, one ugly white eye on random parts of their “bodies”.

How did they even end up in this hell of Teyvat?

——————————

Time: 10:14 am

Location: Thousand Winds Temple

“I think this is the site of commission. Look there’s the cursed pit!”

The traveler and Paimon arrived where Katheryne had directed them to. Funnily enough there were no abyss mages or any monsters in sight there. It was oddly peaceful. The sun was shining, there were no clouds, the animals were scurrying around looking for food! It made them feel at ease.

“Huh, looks like an ordinary pit to Paimon, except it seems to be really really deep. Wonder what caused this..” Paimon and traveler stopped at the edge of the pit. True, it seemed ordinary with zero magical traces around it. The only problem was that it’s diameter was unsettlingly large, large enough to drop Azdaha in it. How did this even appear here in the first place? They were thinking of the possibilities until….

Everything went black.

——————————

“…er”

…..

“….aveler”

……

“TRAVELER!”

Traveler jumped awake. What happened?!?

“Traveler thank archons you are awake!” Paimon cried and hugged them. She was trembling and and seemed terrified. Traveler hugged them and rubbed her back to soothe her. They looked around. Where are they…?

It seemed to be the thousand winds temple but disturbing. Very disturbing. The sky was red. The sun or what seemed to be it was covered by a large black object whose darkness was oozing around the sky like veins. It only provided a dim source of red light. Looking at the ground and surroundings. The ruins were even more broken. There were thick black vines everywhere. The trees were dry and completely covered by such vines. No animals or signs of life nearby.

“Paimon…w-where are we..?” Traveler managed to gasp out as they stared in horror. Was this some sort of dream? The pain in their whole body said otherwise.

“P-paimon doesn’t know! The l-last thing Paimon s-saw before b-b-blacking out was us f-falling!” Paimon said between her tears. Now a pit formed in traveler’s stomach. Did they fall in that pit…?

That can’t be good…they need to get out of he-

A figure interrupted traveler’s thoughts. Someone was there. Someone was approaching them in the temple. They felt hope. Maybe this person can answer their questions! Their hope however, was quickly turned into horror when the figure came close enough to be properly observed.

And when observed, it was anything but human.

——————————

No matter how many times they hacked and slashed at these creatures, no damage was done. They kept healing. Some cut off parts multiplied into new creatures. Elemental power wasn’t working at all.

The traveler and Paimon were hopeless and on the verge of death.

——————————

Some where at a distance…

A group of 5 stared at the commotion by the traveler.

“Looks like we got new faces here. And they don’t seem to be welcomed properly.” A voice from the group spoke.

“I sure can see that. Jeez they sure are putting up a fight.” A second voice huffed.

“Are we gonna help them or leave them as zombie food?” A third voice asked.

“Of course we have to! Can’t you see the condition they are in?!? It will be a shame if that cute little pixie dies!” A fourth voice shrieked out.

“Well we are still full on supplies. Y’all up?” ….the fifth voice spoke.

“Fuck yeah!”

“Let’s do this!”

“Don’t worry little pixie!”

“LETS GOOOOO-“

——————————

Traveler fell to their knees. They were too broken to fight. Paimon helplessly clung onto their head, crying and shouting something they couldn’t hear. It was no use…the monsters kept coming and coming. Maybe this is how they die, huh? There was nobody to save th-

BOOM

A large explosion just happened, clearing a massive amount of the monsters swarming them! From the smoke, five silhouettes appeared. They didn’t have time to react as the silhouettes quickly jumped to battle. They were effectively taking down those monsters like they were slimes.

One of them was moving so fast it appeared as if they teleported ambushed the enemies. Another, used a large cannon to shoot large masses of energy and blew the monsters into pieces. Third, used a a sharp whip, whose strike cut the creatures into shreds. The fourth one, they were some sort of toxic gas making enemies drop dead. Lastly the fifth one attacked bombs.

Soon the all monsters were cleared and only their ashes remained.

——————————

The figures approached the traveler and their pixie. Traveler’s eyes were on the brink of closing yet they still held Paimon protectively. One of the figures crouched down next to them to inspect them. It was the fifth one.

Traveler finally saw their face. They had round yet fierce (e/c) eyes and short messy (h/c) hair. Their face was littered with scars of burns and cuts. Could it be because of explosion accidents? Who is this person…?

Soon traveler blacked out.

——————————

Time: 5:00 pm.

Location: Dawn Winery, Mondstadt

Traveler woke up with a loud gasp. Pausing for a moment, the took deep breaths and observed their surroundings. It’s Dawn Winery? What are they doing here? WAIT WHERE IS PAIMON??

The jumped out of bed, half clothed and patched up. They didn’t care. Need Paimon safe.

They slammed open the door. And that caught the attention of master Diluc and his pixie companion downstairs.

“Traveler you’re awake!” Paimon shrieked happily and flew up to hug them. They were washed with relieved and hugged Paimon back.

“Are you okay Paimon? Are you hurt? What happened?”

“Calm down will ya? Turns out Paimon also blacked out with you. Then, when she woke up, she was here! Turns out Master Diluc was out on his Captain Pyro duties near the temple because of the abyss mages and he found us there.”

“It seems you are awake, but I advise you go back to bed and lay down. Your injuries aren’t healed yet.” It was Diluc this time. He glanced up at the traveler by then looked away blushing because they were only half clothed

“A-ahem, also your clothes are by your bed. Feel free to call Adelinde for help.”

“GASP MASTER DILUC DONT LOOK AT THE TRAVELER!” Paimon screeched trying to cover them up.

“M-my apologies…” Diluc merely walked away flushed.

“Whew t-that was awkward…you know I should probably go dress properly…” traveler rubbed their cheek in embarrassment.

“Okie dokie! Paimon will be off to explore the winery so cya later!” Paimon gave a thumbs up and then proceeded to disappear to god knows where.

Before heading back to the room, something caught the traveler’s eye. It was a door at the end of the hall. The door was open and the room was dark. Something was calling them. They didn’t want to snoop but their gut was begging them to go, and so the let their feet carry them to that room.

——————————

It was a simple room yet dusty room. Spiders probably live here now. There was a a window at the end and a bed under it. A few drawings and plushies laid on the shelf. Everything had a heavy layer of dust.

‘Must be a child’s room…’ they thought. They looked around until something made them stop dead. On the floor, was a picture. Traveler picked it up.

It was the picture of three children, hugging and laughing innocently on a tree. On the left end was none other than Master Diluc in his youth. His eyes were so big and cute! On the right end was…Kaeya? He seemed kinda scared being on top of a tree. It was strange seeing those two together like that. Wonder what their history was…

Finally between them, was an unknown child with cute round eyes like Diluc’s. Traveler stared at them for a while. And then…it clicked.

——————————

“MASTER DILUC! MASTER DILUC!”

Diluc heard the traveler shout his name. He turned around and here they were, panting and huffing.

“Traveler is everything alright?” He asks concerned.

“Listen, please don’t get mad but this is important. I-I saw a room at the end of a hall a-and I didn’t mean t-to-“

“Listen, I won’t get mad, just calm down. Take deep breaths and take your time to speak.” Diluc calmed and reassured the traveler. How could they possibly get him mad? He thought.

The traveler took a few breaths and then spoke.

“Listen, I didn’t mean to snoop but the room at the end of the hall, it was open and for some reason I felt the urge to go there. I saw a picture on the ground an-“ before they could finish a dark shadow formed over Diluc. All of his warm reassuring look was gone.

“I prefer not to talk about it.” He simply stated with a hollow look.

“No no, please hear me out! The child in the mid-“ the traveler tried to finish.

“Please go back to rest.” Diluc turned around ready to leave. Frustrated, the traveler shouted-

“THEY SAVED MY LIFE JUST A WHILE AGO.”

With that, Diluc froze at where he stood.

FORGOTTEN

Part 3

Warnings: Diluc and Kaeya are sus

Notes: Exams are over…the suffering…is over….I’m finally FRE- *gets smacked by multiple tests*

Here part 1 and part 2

Summary: You die stopping your brothers form fighting, but somehow live? You lose all memory of them tho and get transported to another relam. And then you meet four years later.

“THEY SAVED MY LIFE JUST A WHILE AGO.”

Traveler yelled in frustration and it made Diluc freeze. Like a deer caught in headlights. A million questions rose in his mind. Did he hear that correct?

“Master Diluc? Hey? Are yo-“

“Please go back to your room.”

And with that, he left.

Traveler groaned in frustration. Who is this mystery person? They took down those monsters form the pit so easily…Their head throbbed. Maybe some fresh air can help? Yes, fresh air would be lovely. Maybe a small walk around the vineyard as well….in some appropriate clothes of course.

They headed back to their room and changed into their normal clothes. It was hard to do that because of the injuries but they were unfazed. They could only think about the mystery person in silence. Speaking of silence, where is the silence breaker Paimon? Meh maybe she’s outside as well?

________________________

It was a peaceful sunny day outside. Just like the day when they fell into that pit of horror. Crystalflies were merrily fluttering among the vineyards with a soft glow. Traveler strolled among them, wanting to collect them but their aching body said otherwise. There were so many things going around! From a distance we can see birds in their nests, squirrels collecting nuts, Paimon arguing with Kaeya…wait- Kaeya? What was he doing here?

Next to the manor’s entrance, Paimon was yelling at Kaeya and angrily stomping her foot in air while Kaeya just crossed his arms and said something that seemed to annoy her even further. Next to them was Elzer who was desperately trying to calm them down.

“HAH! PAIMON BETS YOU CANT EVEN EAT GRAPES!”

“Now now, just because i don’t like grape juice doesn’t mean I can’t eat grapes.”

“Why are you two yelling about eating grapes?” Traveler decided to join in. Paimon perked up at the familiar voice.

“Traveler! Look! Paimon was just asking Elzer for grape juice and Kaeya had THE AUDACITY to appear out of NOWHERE AND MAKE FUN OF PAIMON FOR WANTING A DRINK!”

“I was just trying to greet you Paimon-“

“What kind of greeting goes “ew grape juice”?”

“Pfft” Traveler tried to stifle their laughter. It only further offended Paimon and she began ranting even louder.

“By the way what are you doing here Kaeya?” Ignoring the angry pixie, traveler now gave their attention to Kaeya’s strange presence at the manor. Why was he here though?

(If you look real closely you can see salt being rubbed on a certain angry marshmallow who was being ignored.)

“Don’t mind me, I’m here to pay a visit to master Diluc regarding some matters. Now, Elzer?”

“Right this way Master Kaeya,” Elzer bowed and began leading Kaeya inside the manor. They were about to enter when traveler suddenly called his name.

“Kaeya!” He was there in that picture. His blue hair and eye can’t be mistaken for somebody else’s. Maybe he knows who that child was?

Kaeya stopped in his footsteps and turned to the traveler.

“…nothing, sorry.” But traveler hesitated.

Kaeya stared for a second then huffed with a small smile and went inside, leaving traveler alone with Paimon.

…………

“HEY! ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING???” Paimon impatiently floated in front of the traveler’s face, waving her arms. They snapped out of their thoughts. Darn, they let another chance escape…

“What was that? You were staring into space.” Her tone was full of concern. Should she know? Doesn’t seem to bring any harm to tell her…

“Paimon, there was something in that room at the end of the ha-“

“Honorary Knight, hello!” It was Adelinde this time.

“Hey Adelinde! What’s up?” Paimon turned and waved at her as she approached them.

“Oh nothing much, I see you are recovering honorary knight.” She smiled at the traveler. They smiled back.

“I am, but pray tell, why is Kaeya here?” Curiosity got the better of traveler as they asked.

Adelinde’s smile was replaced by a sad look. She quickly tried to cover it up but the duo had already seen it.

“I think they are having a work related meeting. Im not sure.” She said but it also felt fake, like a lie.

“Adelinde, are you okay?” Paimon was confused at her behaviour.

“Im fine really! Instead I should be the one asking you, traveler you look pretty distracted by something.” She was right about traveler looking distracted though. They really can’t get their mind off that picture.

“Adelinde, can I ask you something?”

“Yes?”

“What is that room at the end of the hall on the first floor?”

______________________

Somewhere….

“Hey toots, whatcha doing here all alone?”

Alone on a rooftop, a (h/c) haired person sits and stares at the black and red sky above them. They didn’t notice the brunette girl approaching them until she called them out.

“Nothing much, just wondering about this damn pit…” they sighed. The girl lazily sat next to them.

“or are you wondering about those two?”

“…..”

“I’ll take that as a yes.”

“*sigh* It’s just…listen, I don’t believe in this “aura” and shit but there is something about them that felt so familiar.”

“…have you inhaled any toxic gases recently?”

The brunette received a playful punch on the shoulder. She giggled.

“No damn it. I just- ugh…even I can’t explain this…it feels so familiar like I…I-“ they stop mid sentence as they find themselves short of words. What is that familiar feeling?

The brunette was about to speak when a siren went off.

“Crap it’s happening again!” They both got up from their seats and jumped off the roof, reaching the ground running through the ghostly streets.

“Wasn’t this supposed to not occur until next week??” The (h/c) haired person asked clearly confused and concerned.

“I don’t fucking know! Just focus of reaching the top of the cathedral!” The brunette yelled as they both ran even faster.

I love the “found family” trope as much as anyone (which is a lot) but no other trope breaks my heart as much as “lost family”. Characters who grew up together and who loved each other as family are separated by x or y reasons and the universe can’t seem to let them reunite. They both think the other one has forgotten about them/ hates them and they want to go back to how they were but it seems impossible to them. It’s so heartbreaking and genuinely makes me cry uncontrollably.
