Genshin Guys with an S/O Dealing with Sensory Overload (Wriothesley, Diluc, Alhaitham, Neuvillette)

Please note that this is all from my experience. Obviously not everyone is going to experience it like this. Basically this is me shamelessly self-inserting again. I mean, what's new?

I'm going to format this as kind of scenarios in bullet point form, rather than my usual

CW: hurt/comfort, neurodivergent reader

Wriothesly x gn!reader, Diluc x gn!reader, Alhaitham x gn!reader, Neuvillette x gn!reader

Requests and Ask Box is OPEN

Wriothesley

Sensory overload isn't really that uncommon around Wriothesly

And it's not because he's loud or anything, but the Fortress of Meropide isn't a quiet place. I imagine there's always a lot of little sounds even at night. Stuff like dripping pipes, hissing steam, little things

And even if you're not hanging out at Fortress, the city isn't even much quieter

Thankfully he's the perceptive, people-smart type so there's no way in hell sensory overload is getting past him

Tight fists, pinched eyebrows, flinching at loud noises, yeah, he ain't missin' that shit

When he notices you doing that he's quick to finish whatever conversation he's in and bringing you to a quieter location

He's either soundproofed his room or set aside some space in the fortress where you can be alone in the quiet. If you need music to avoid complete and total quiet he has some soft records for you to listen to

Diluc

Diluc has an easier time dealing with the sensory overload

When the day has left you worn out, overloaded, and on edge, wincing at even soft noises, you seek out Diluc

Of course, if you're helping/hanging out at the Angel's Share, chances are he's already at least noticed your reactions to the ambient chaos

If he can't get away from the bar, he hands you the keys to his room and tells you to go rest, that he'll be up when he's free

At the Winery, he's left instructions that even if he's not there, you should be brought to a quiet out of the way room (ehem, his room) and given whatever you need

In either location, as soon as he's free he's coming to make sure you're alright. He usually has something for your headache, knowing that you've probably got one

If you let him, he'll want to hold you, rubbing circles into your shoulder. But if you need space, he'll leave you be once

More than anything he's intent on making any of his spaces safe and comfortable for you

Alhaitham

Alhaitham is an asshole and doesn't people, but when it comes to sensory overload he's 100% sympathetic

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if it's something he deals with on the regular

It's also not something you can hide from him (in fact you might go to him because he's a quiet person who has no issues telling anyone who would bother you to go sit on it)

The first thing he does is kick whoever he's talking to out of the room. Unlike Wrio, he doesn't bother wrapping up the conversation, he just tells them to leave

If you're at his house, Kaveh gets told to find a different room to occupy and Kaveh actually listens (I mean, Kaveh is a nice guy who isn't going to be mean to you just to give his roommate the metaphorical middle finger. Really, neither of them are.)

Once he's gotten rid of any annoyances, he's handing over his headphones

He also helps darken the room your in (modifications Kaveh helped with--I feel like both of them are far more willing to accommodate you than each other, even if it means working together)

After that, he just leaves you alone. If you have a headache, he'll find something to help, but he just goes to read

If you're in a place where he can't just shoo people away and remove any offending sensations, he goes out of his way to comfort you (which took him forever to figure out how to do, but he likes you so it's worth the effort). Even if it's just lending you headphones while he takes you by the hand and leads you through the city

Neuvillette

Honestly, it takes Neuvie a while to get used to a S/O who is prone to Sensory Overload

He's not human and is very much accustomed to the chaos of the Opera Epiclese, Palais Mermonia, and Fontaine City in general

So when Sedene lets you in to Neuvie's office (he's left instructions that unless he's in a conversation you can't be privy to, you're just to be let in) and you're nearly in tears, he's very concerned

Anything he's doing is immediately set to the side so he can figure out what's wrong

When he figures out that your brain just can't process any more input without feeling like it's about to spontaneously combust, he's a little confused, but he focuses more on how to help you

First things first, he has you hydrate while he tells Sedene to not let anyone in unless it's an emergency and finishes up whatever he's doing. If you're not feeling well, he wants to be able to focus his attention on you

Then he takes you somewhere quieter and darker

Eventually, much like Diluc and Wrio, he sets aside a place for you to go. He makes sure you can keep it as dark and quiet as you want, while making sure any sensory things you gravitate to are easily accessed

On days where you decide to take a nap, it's not uncommon to see him wrapped around you, letting his naturally cool temperature soothe you

Can I make a request for a chubby/thick! Reader xgenshin men?Alot of artists don't have much of this factor when it comes to writing for genshin so could you please take it into consideration?Thank you!!

yo i’m not even taking requests rn but i wanted to answer this one bc this is so valid?? And YES, chubby/thick!readers are SORELY underrepresented in most fandoms, sadly. all of our bodies are beautiful and should be celebrated and adored! i hope i did an okay job and didn't write anything unintentionally insensitive (if i did, lmk kindly, please). ♡

*ੈ♡⋆ pairings — diluc, itto, kaeya, thoma, tighnari, zhongli (separate) x gn!chubby/thick!reader

*ੈ♡⋆ warnings — nsfw. mdni.

*ੈ♡⋆ diluc — idk why but I get the impression that diluc has a slight preference for a thick lover? like, he would def prefer someone with extra meat on their bones. he likes biting the fat of your inner thighs, leaving a trail of spit all the way to your juicy sex before sucking you into his hot mouth.

*ੈ♡⋆ itto — i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again: this oni LOVES a thick lover! he NEEDS something to grab onto when he’s plowing into you from behind like a demon in heat. and he has to keep looking away from your ass bc watching it ripple with every impact of his hips nearly has him filling you up with his oni seed.

*ੈ♡⋆ kaeya — kaeya is (among other things) a body worshipper fight me. feeling the plush of your thighs squeezing his hips as he rocks them into your core will have him muttering sweet praises in your ear about how much harder his cock is getting bc your soft thighs are riding his.

*ੈ♡⋆ thoma — sweet, sweet thoma is so loving and respectful. he loves to hear you praise him for his cooking skills, but loves hearing you whine his name while he's filling you up with his cock even more. he thinks your tummy is so cute, especially as it rubs against his when he's got your knees bent over his arms and he's splitting you open around his pretty dick.

*ੈ♡⋆ tighnari — idk why but i get the feeling nari loves to fuck those luscious thighs of yours until your skin is slick with his pre and he's biting his lip to fight back his whiny moans. then, just before he cums, he pushes his cock inside you and fucks you with shallow, stuttering thrusts as his warm cum floods your hole. you haven't even gotten to cum yet but before you can huff in frustration, nari buries himself balls deep and fucks you properly. don't worry, your needy fox boy won't be done with you anytime soon.

*ੈ♡⋆ zhongli — this mangod is so fucking refined in his tastes that he sees the true beauty beyond the surface of everything, from inanimate stones to living creatures. he has seen and loved all body types bc it's the quality of a person's character that he finds most attractive. so when he's pumping his thick geo cock in and out of your walls, he's making love to every part of you. he's kissing every dimple, grabbing every fold, and leaving his marks along your plump thighs bc every inch of your exquisite body is just as much a part of you as your rich mind, heart, and soul.

Genshin Pyro Men - Jealousy, Jealousy

Lyney x fem!reader, Diluc x gn!reader

a/n: omg hiii it's been a while lmaooo, so I started writing these as an exercise to get rid of my writer's block and I kinda like them? so anyway here they are, sorry to Thoma enjoyers but idk how to write for him so this is just Lyney and Diluc (fem!reader for lyney bc of stupid french gendered language smh)

btw, I've been thinking of writing some BSD headcanons/scenarios like this, lmk if that's something you would like to see

Lyney

The famous magician had never expected himself to be a particularly jealous lover…protective, yes, but he never anticipated that seeing you flash that perfect smile at another man would cause such fury to boil in his chest.

For a brief moment, Lyney is no different than any other Fatui agent, planning the demise of a target. His gaze hardens and the careful smile falls from his lips, until he feels his sister's concerned stare burning into his temple.

"Careful, brother." She murmurs, her hand closing around his wrist and grounding his thoughts. "You're smarter than that."

He knows his sister is right, as always, so he settles instead for his second impulse; showmanship. With a forced smile intended to settle Lynette's worries, he disappears into the crowd and appears by your side in typical Lyney fashion, his arm coiling slyly around your waist and pulling you into his side. Just where you belong, he thinks.

"Ma chérie, I've been looking for you everywhere," he simpers, his tone sickly sweet as he presses butterfly kisses to your cheek and ignores the stranger glaring at him, "what could possibly be so important that it keeps you from me, hmm?"

You begin to speak and Lyney thinks you might be introducing him to the stranger, but he's too focused on the curve of your lips to comprehend the words coming from them. Luckily, it doesn't take long for the man to take the hint, and when he finally departs Lyney tugs you even closer, until your chest is pressed flush against his.

"I never thought I'd see Lyney the great magician jealous." You tease, and he raises your hand to press a soft kiss to your knuckles, sending you a mischievous look through his lashes as he does.

"Can you really blame me, mon amour? I would be a fool to let you slip away from me."

Diluc

The uncrowned king of Mondstadt is far too secure in himself to display any jealous tendencies…or at least, that's what he tells himself. Truthfully, the looks you often get from other men in the city makes his blood run even hotter than usual.

Thankfully, being Diluc comes with privileges, such as the ability to scare off any pursuers with little more than a harsh glare in their direction; no one in Mondstadt would be stupid enough to compete with him. Except, that is, for his brother.

He knows Kaeya is trying to get under his skin, but that doesn't mean it isn't working. The way his arm is slung over your shoulders and the crooked smirks Kaeya keeps sending him from across the bar have Diluc's shoulders feeling tense, his breathing a little heavier than usual.

He hears the sound of your voice but can't make out the words, and then Kaeya laughs heartily and, to Diluc's horror, begins to lean in as though to kiss you. Diluc moves as quickly as he can, appearing beside your booth with a scowl just as Kaeya's hand closes around his half-empty glass across the table, and he settles back into his seat, still smirking.

"Ah, brother," Kaeya says, and only then do you notice his arrival. His heart feels lighter when he notices your face light up, but he refuses to show it in front of Kaeya, knowing it would only fuel his teasing. "to what do we owe the pleasure?"

"Out." Diluc responds, the word coming out gruff. Kaeya chuckles knowingly, but makes no movement to leave. Your bewildered stare flickers between the two of them, clearly oblivious to Kaeya's intentions.

"Really, Diluc? You wouldn't throw out a paying customer this early into the night, would you?" The lilt of Kaeya's voice grates on Diluc's nerves, and his scowl deepens.

"Out, now." Diluc refuses to elaborate, and finally Kaeya stands, hands raised in surrender, and moves towards the door with a victorious smile and an annoying swagger. When the door closes behind him, Diluc releases a heavy sigh and turns his attention to you, the frown on his brow softening as he takes in your look of shock.

"My apologies, love. Why don't you come and sit at the bar? I'll fix you another drink."

Diluc x GN!Reader fic: In safe hands

You are having a depressive episode. Diluc takes care of you.

Word count: 1018

Genre: Comfort

Content warnings: Depression, not wanting to eat, and anti-natalist thinking (i.e. thinking it is better not to be born).

Notes: First published on AO3 a year and a half ago. Thought I'd finally post it on here, too.

Read below or on AO3.

You sit on the couch of the Dawn Winery Manor. Knees up, nestled under a blanket, staring into space. Comfy, but you’re not happy. It isn’t that anything is particularly wrong, but you’ve been feeling down today. The whole week, really. It’s just one of those episodes you have every once in a while. You know you’ll get through it, but that doesn’t make it any easier to bear. On the worst days, you can barely drag yourself out of bed, eating is a chore, and doing any actual work is an impossible task. Today is perhaps not that bad, but not much better either. Add to that, the terrible boredom. If you had anything to distract yourself with, it might be bearable – but what do you do if your very diversions seem insurmountable tasks themselves? You sigh.

“y/n?” Diluc stands in the middle of the room, taking his coat off. You hadn’t even noticed him coming in.

“Hey,” you say. You wish you could be more outwardly enthusiastic, but you’re too sapped of energy. Inwardly, though, you are quite happy to see him.

“I see you are not doing so well.” He pauses, then walks up to you, bends over, and kisses your forehead. “Hold on, I will make you some tea.”

You murmur a word of thanks, but probably too softly for him to hear as he leaves the room. He could just have one of the servants make the tea, but he prefers to care for you with his own hands. Besides, his expertise doesn’t only pertain alcoholic drinks. He knows the exact right way to make tea, too. None of the servants’ tea can match the Master’s.

You listen to Diluc making noises in the kitchen, as he left the door open. Bringing the water to a boil, measuring the amount of tea, taking the pot from the cabinet – all the while humming a soft tune. Diluc has told you before that humming is an indispensable part of making good tea. You have your doubts, but have no reason to complain; you’re quite content listening to his song. Diluc isn’t free of his own demons, but he can get into the tasks at hand and lose himself in it, which allows him to hum in such a carefree way.

After a couple of minutes, Diluc returns, carrying a tray. On it, a pot of tea, two cups, and… a croissant. Why must he be so perceptive? you wonder. He definitely noticed you haven’t eaten – it is like a sixth sense he has. Diluc places the tray on the table and, without a word, starts pouring the tea. Then he puts one cup in front of you, giving you a smile and a wink. The second cup he places next to yours, and then he seats himself next to you on the couch. His arm goes over your shoulder and pulls you closer to him. You relax, leaning against his body. It’s warm, comfortably warm. You close your eyes.

“Tell me what is on your mind.”

You are silent for a moment, collecting your thoughts. “I don’t know,” you start softly. Diluc murmurs an encouraging sound. Still trying to find the right words, you continue: “Sometimes I just feel so down without an apparent reason. And once I’m that way, the negative thoughts come pouring in, to keep me held down. I fear that I’m never gonna be alright. That I’m not worthy of love. That I’ve misled people into loving me, because if they truly knew me, they wouldn’t stick around. That it'd be better for everyone if I were never born.”

“I respectfully disagree, my love.” Diluc replied. “You are… quite someone, you know? There is no need to be afraid that people would cower at the sight of the ‘real you’. I have been with you for some time, and you have bared your soul. And I am still here, remember? I love you with all your insecurities and wounds, all your mistakes and the things you think are imperfections. I have seen all of you, and I am ‘sticking around’. I love you, and I love being with you.”

A single tear runs over your cheek. “Thank you,” you say. The response feels inadequate, but you can’t quite put your feelings into words. “That means a lot,” you add, turning to face him. He smiles at you in a loving way. His right arm still wrapped around your shoulders, he brings his left hand to your face, holding your chin. His touch is ever so gentle, like you’re a beautiful yet fragile flower. You close your eyes as he leans in. His lips touch yours, press upon them with reservation betraying unparalleled devotion. He tastes like apple cider, with that slight taste of cinnamon.

As the kiss comes to an end, Diluc doesn’t lean back, but rather embraces you tightly. “You mean a lot to me,” he murmurs in your ear. “Don’t you ever forget that.”

You make no sound, letting yourself melt in his arms. They are so warm, so safe. Diluc breath tickles your neck.

After a while, Diluc lets go of the embrace, though one of his hands searches yours and holds it. With the other hand, he reaches for the plate with the croissant and picks it up. “Eat something, sweetheart.” You look at the pastry with aversion. Diluc doesn’t fail to notice. “I know you do not want to, but I do not wish to see you neglect your body. If you cannot do it for yourself, do it for me, alright?” He looks at you imploringly and softly squeezes your hand.

“Alright.” You remove your hand from his hold, take the croissant from the plate and take a small bite.

“Good,” Diluc mumbles under his breath. His now-freed hand goes to your head, and starts playing with your hair. “It’s so soft.”

As you slowly eat the pastry, Diluc continues his play with your hair. His fingers are so delicate, so careful. If it’s under his care, eating isn’t all that bad, you suppose.

“SOOTHING WORDS FOR YOU”

[ masterlist ] [ event ] [ reblogs are very appreciated ]

hurt/comfort, romantic relationship, zhongli, kaeya alberich, diluc ragnvindr (separately) x gn!reader

warning(s) : IMPLIED SPOILERS FOR DILUC’S STORY QUEST (in diluc’s), night terrors, slight angst at the beginning for diluc’s (i’m sorry i swear i love him), pet names (love/dear) are used in kaeya’s and diluc’s !, not proofread

word count : 1449 words

plot : “your boyfriend discovers you’re having a night terror — how does he comfort you without waking you up?”

a/n : i’m incredibly sorry for the long wait </3 this has been a tough year. anyway, i’ve done some research: nightmares are bad dreams that make you wake up; night terrors are moments where a person shouts/moves/violently act while sleeping! these moments tipically last from a few seconds to around 3 minutes, but sometimes the time could be longer. so in this fic, it’s about night terrors because it think they fit better :) <3.

ZHONGLI

although he wasn’t someone who needed a substantial amount of sleep, the consultant of the wangsheng funeral parlor sometimes decided to rest at night and immerse himself in what the life of mortals seemed to be like. it was a moment of peacefulness when one’s mind could rest from the workload of the day and wait for tomorrow to begin — something that beings like him weren’t entirely used to.

memories of the past were a common occurence in the mind of someone as knowledgeable and experienced as zhongli. while you were asleep beside him, he quietly thought about his bygone encounters and things that he had witnessed during the years of his life. he looked back at those times, savouring both the wonderful and the unhappy, past matters.

it was one of those nights — though the brown-haired man was lost in his thoughts, he glanced at your resting figure every now and then, quietly admiring you.

as he was wondering whether he should have prepared a cup of tea for himself or not before joining you in morpheus’ embrace, a scream diverted his attention from his mind to you: you were sat up in your shared bed and you looked frightened; your breath was heavy, too heavy, and you seemed to be staring wide-eyed at something in front of you, forcefully kicking your feet.

zhongli stopped himself from talking to you, supposing that it would have been better to slightly move and see your eyes — as he was expecting, your pupils were dilated, your gaze wasn’t focused on anything in particular.

he had seen many people going though these episodes and he had observed how people dealt with situations like this one. he still was worried about you, but he couldn’t let himself be distracted by uncertainty and concern when there was the risk that you could have accidentally hurt him or even yourself.

“i’m by your side in this moment, [name], and there’s no one else here with us. you’re completely safe” he slowly said, his calm voice was echoing in the room.

your sweat was becoming more visible while you still kept moving, however it was without the same energy as before.

your partner took a deep breath. “you’re going to be fine, [name], trust my words. nothing can hurt you now — danger isn’t coming your way. you can rest”.

he carefully watched how you returned to lay down on the mattress, closing your eyes again and sleeping in a serene way.

after waiting for a few minutes to make sure you weren’t going to shift position, he followed your example and rested in silence.

zhongli would have confronted you about it the next morning, asking if you were aware of it and if it had something to do with stress or another condition.

but, before that moment, he would have been there with you as long as you needed it.

KAEYA

as the cavalry captain of the knights of favonius, kaeya had to be always hyper vigilant of his surroundings: there was the possibility to be caught off guard at all times, either by enemies of different nature or passerby who desired to tell him something. he had become rather perceptive thanks to many factors — and it was handy when it came to missions or other troubles.

however he did not expect to feel you vigorously kick his leg while he was sleeping.

his eyes widened and he sat down quickly, blocking your arm — which was about to punch his stomach — right in time. he softly sighed, wondering what was occurring but, unfortunately for him, his action only worsened the current situation as you began to be slightly more aggressive.

before letting go of your wrist kaeya mentally noted your racing pulse and then he distanced himself from you, even though it was quite difficult to do so without leaving the bed. “[name], i’m here with you. what’s the matter?”.

‘have they had a nightmare?’, your boyfriend asked to himself, pondering what he should have done to help you feel better.

the answer didn’t wait to be known: you were having difficulty with breathing and generally you appeared… frightened. although the only light source was the street lamp not too far from the window of the bedroom, it wasn’t a problem for him to see and sense your agitation.

after briefly analyzing your movements, it didn’t take him long to understand that you weren’t awake.

kaeya was way too familiar with those episodes: they could happen for various reasons — from anxiety to sleep deprivation, from fever to other conditions; they were a common occurrence during his childhood and they still remained in his adulthood. although now they happened rarely (in his case), he had gotten used to them year after year.

“we’re in this together, love” he softly spoke, enunciating every word in a calm tone. “you’re not alone; i’m right here by your side, you aren’t fighting an enemy”.

your body gradually relaxed and you seemed to breathe comfortably again. so, he slowly lay down on the bed next to you, observing your body from time to time to undestand if you were going to do anything abruptly or not.

“you’re doing fine, [name]. you can stay here, nobody is going to harm you. what do you say if we sleep, mh? it sounds like a pretty good idea to me”.

kaeya smiled to himself as you mumbled something in your sleep and completely calmed down.

“i care very deeply about you. you can be certain of it”.

DILUC

the owner of dawn winery faintly sighed as he entered his mansion; he felt quite worn out from the long evening since he had relentlessly fought several monsters, which had ventured too near mondstadt, as he did also on the previous days. it was his duty, an obligation he had imposed on himself: protection was needed at all times when peril was everywhere, particularly around the most vulnerable hours of the night. otherwise, what would have happened if there weren’t someone who watched over the city of the wind even in those moments?

cold water hit his pale skin as diluc took a shower to relieve the pain of his aching body. exhaustion persisted for some time, but eventually it let him go and he felt more comfortable.

he had just put his nightclothes on when he felt the crack of something break. was someone trying to steal from his house? did you leave the window open and a gust of wind had made something fall from the nightstand? there were many possibilities and a wave of panic suddenly overwhelmed him, clouding his judgement.

fortunately, since the room he was in was fairly close to your shared bedroom, it didn’t take him long to rush over and see what was taking place.

a lamp had been shattered on the floor, it was broken in small pieces of glass; your arm was still and bent over where once the nightlight stood and your hand continuously punched the air; you seemed troubled by something, but your eyes were devoid of any emotion, making it difficult to discern your state of mind.

did you suddenly wake up because he made too much noise by coming back to the mansion?

diluc proceeded to get near your figure, slowly collecting the broken glass with one of his handkerchief: it was already quite late and, given the circumstances, he decided not to call his servants. “my love, it’s me. i didn’t mean to disturb your sleep, i’ll be more careful in the future; however, i’d like to know if you’re hurt by any chance” he gently questioned, scanning over your body to see any signs of injuries.

you were unresponsive, staring aimlessly at the bedspread. nevertheless, you were breathing heavily; it indicated that your body was having a hard time to get oxygen, as if you were stressed about something but also… tired.

he put the broken lamp away, his exceptional stealth helped him not to make a sound. “do you hear me, dear?” he asked, without expecting an answer now that he had a general idea of the situation.

he sat down on his side of the bed, looking at you: your body had stopped moving, but you still seemed upset by something.

“there’s nothing to be afraid of here — i’ve returned home. you’re unscathed and so am i; we can slumber now”.

it took a while to make you sleep, but in the end your body gave in and you tranquilly resumed your rest.

diluc did the same soon enough, delicately hugging your figure and resting his face near yours.

“we’re completely safe”.

accidental geovishap acquisition

masterlist | 1k prompt masterlist | family series

prompt: you find a baby geovishap while exploring in liyue. diluc is less than thrilled about your new pet. 

pairings: diluc x gn!reader

warnings: ~2.5k words, accidental baby acquisition trope (but with a geovishap), diluc falls in love with said geovishap but would never admit it

When you told Diluc you were traveling to Liyue for work, he expected you to come home with sincere gifts of exquisite gemstones and thoughtful trinkets. He never, in a million years, would have imagined you to come home with what you did. 

“Absolutely not.” Diluc says sternly when his eyes lay on the thing in your embrace. It’s sleeping soundly, curled around your arms, and you look overjoyed to be holding it. 

You don’t give him the time of the day. “His name is Spot because he’s got a spot around his right eye,” You tell. “He’s just a baby.” 

“Yeah – a baby who will grow into a monster that’s five-times the size of you and try to eat you.” 

“Geovishaps don’t eat people.” Diluc sighs and you look at him longingly, “He was all alone, ‘Luc. I couldn’t just leave him there.” He frowns heavily, the muscles on his face stretching down, and you add, “Besides, look how adorable he is.” 

Diluc stares at the baby Geovishap with sharp eyes. Then, he looks back at you. “One month,” He decides, “You can have one month to raise it and then you’re bringing it back to Liyue.” 

You smile and duck your head down to kiss the top of the Geovishap’s scaly head. Diluc feels his eye twitch. 

You fully intended on bringing back something introspective from Liyue. But when you were amassing the greenery with your expedition team, you heard something calling for help around a bend. Your curiosity got the best of you and underneath a heavily-weathered shed laid a tiny little dragon. 

It was utterly alone and looked afraid but you still swept your surroundings for a mother before deciding that this baby had been abandoned and you would be a truly cruel person to leave it there to ultimately die. 

Without much thought, you peeled your bag off your shoulders and opened it wide. Your hands lifted the Geovishap with gentleness and lowered him into the sack. When you were sure he was secured, you slipped your bag back on and went back to your team. The Geovishap’s head poked out from the opening of the sack and he laid his tired face on your shoulder. 

And now, here you were. 

“How are you going to feed it?” Diluc asked later. “What are you going to feed it?” 

You contemplated his question and rubbed your fingers between the sleeping dragon’s eyes. He leaned into your touch and purred loudly. “Whatever we have for dinner,” You answered. Diluc stared at you for a moment and you cocked your head in confusion, “What? Is that not good?” 

“Is that not good?” Diluc mocked, “Does it even have teeth?” 

“I…don’t want to check.” 

Diluc huffed once and grabbed his coat, “Stay here.” He left the manor promptly and returned later with a woven satchel filled with various items. He laid them on the kitchen counter and you peered at them curiously. There were a few bottles of fresh milk, some minced meat, and a cattle-feeding bottle. “Well, do what you need to do.” 

He was about to leave the kitchen when you caught the sleeve of his arm, “You know,” You started. “Your father loved to rescue wild animals. He would have adored Spot.” 

Diluc visibly stiffened, “Wild animals like feral cats and stray dogs. Not Geovishaps.” 

You laughed softly, “Yeah, yeah, whatever.” 

At night, you lay Spot to sleep on a makeshift pile of pillows and blankets in the corner of the bedroom and kiss it goodnight. For a moment, Diluc imagines the Geovishap is a child and you’re putting them to bed, but then he remembers that it’s not a child. It’s a Geovishap. It will never be anything more than a Geovishap. 

It becomes even worse when said Geovishap begins following Diluc around the house. It hasn’t mastered rolling yet, so it teeters around on all-four-legs and occasionally rams into the back of Diluc’s shins.

“Y/N,” Diluc warns after Spot headbutts his legs for the sixth time that morning, “Can you get your rabid-dog away from me?” 

You dramatically gasp, “Be nice to him! He’s just a baby!” 

Diluc shakes his head at you in disbelief. Truthfully, he doesn’t understand why you’re so adamant about protecting the Geovishap. One day, this tiny baby would grow into a vicious beast and do what it was programmed to do – cause destruction and harm – and it would inevitably meet its demise. Taking this Geovishap was a mistake. What was it going to take for you to understand that? 

Nothing, clearly, because Diluc comes home from a shift at the tavern to see Spot curled against your arm…sleeping on his side of the bed. 

“Absolutely not,” Diluc mutters – this phrase seemingly becoming his favorite lately. He grabs the monster under its arms and Spot jerks awake, wriggling in Diluc’s grasp. Spot scowls in protest and shakes his tail pathetically. Diluc holds the Geovishap at arms length and carries it to the bathroom attached to your bedroom. Diluc throws Spot down in the empty bathtub and stares at it for a moment before shaking his head, “You can sleep there.” 

Spot tries to climb out of the bathtub but can’t get a hold on the ceramic ledge and falls to the bottom of the tub. He sits back on his legs and looks at Diluc with such insufferable doe-eyes that make Diluc sick. 

“What?” Diluc grits his teeth. The baby dragon makes a sound, dare Diluc describe it as cute, and scoots closer to the edge. “I’m not letting you out.” Spot makes the sound again, louder this time, and Diluc rolls his eyes, “Oh, shush.” 

As if the Geovishap can understand what Diluc is saying, and decides to totally go against it, he starts making much louder noises. It sounds like a mix of a bark, a meow, and a growl, and it’s getting louder by the second. Diluc groans and ducks down to lift the Geovishap into his arms again. 

“Fine, fine,” He admits, “You win. Just don’t wake them up.” He brings the Geovishap back into your bedroom and drops him onto the bed you made him. “Stay,” Diluc adds before crawling into bed with you. 

He’s woken up an hour later to something crawling over his body and snuggling into your arms but he’s much too tired to care. He can survive one night of this. (Deep down, Diluc knows that there’s going to be way more than one night of this.) 

Next week, Kaeya comes to visit Diluc. Or, as Diluc likes to call it, comes by for a free glass of wine. 

Diluc tenses his back against a wooden chair. “What’s the reason for your unexpected visit?” He demands, knowing there must be some reason. 

Kaeya pretends to remember something and reaches into his bag for it. “Annual paperwork,” He says casually, procuring a neat stack of papers and placing them on the table. “Jean asked me to come drop them off and who would I be – what is that?” 

On the floor behind Diluc stands a scaly, dragon-looking animal. It barks, or whatever it does, at Kaeya and curls up into a ball, rolling towards the visitor. Spot rolls straight into the table leg and unfurls, sitting under the table in an agitated mess. 

“That’s my new dog.” 

“That is not a dog.” 

On cue, you step out from around the corner with a frown on your face. “Is Spot in here? He heard something and jumped off the couch and into here.” You hear the monster and drop to your hands and knees to pull him out from under the table. You pick Spot up without protest and settle in an empty chair with the Geovishap on your lap. 

Kaeya stares in disbelief. “Spot? You named it Spot?” 

You nod, scratching the back of Spot’s head, “Sure did.” 

“Congratulations on your new addition,” Kaeya eventually says, his voice ridden with amusement, “I’m sure he’ll be a wonderful Ragnvindr heir.” 

Diluc huffs, “It’s not staying here forever.” 

The corners of Kaeya’s mouth curl upwards, “I’m sure he isn’t, Master Diluc.” Diluc only rolls his eyes and reaches for the stack of papers. 

Over the next couple of weeks, you care for the Geovishap like any pet. You feed him in the morning and night (Diluc complains about the grocery budget doubling), make sure he has lots of toys to play with during the day and a warm bed to sleep in at night, and give him enough love to last a millennium. 

Spot learns the layout of the manor soon enough and Diluc spends his days pulling him out from underneath a bed or shooing him off the counter (how did he even get up there?!). Sometimes, though, Diluc can’t find him. 

After an hour of searching, you start to worry. Usually, Spot comes out of his various hiding places by nightfall but tonight, he was nowhere to be found. It was raining outside and all you could think of was the baby dragon getting stuck in a thunderstorm. 

“Come to bed,” Diluc tries again, “I’m sure it’ll show up in the morning.” 

You shake your head adamantly and pull your blanket around your body even tighter. “He,” You correct, peeved, “Stop calling Spot an ‘it’.” 

Diluc sighs before walking towards you and falling down next to you on the couch. His shoulder brushes against yours and he unwraps the blanket partially so he can sneak underneath. “Maybe it – he – ran away back to Liyue,” Diluc tries. When you glare at him, he adds, “I’m just kidding. I’m sure he’ll show up.” 

And he does. Diluc wakes up in a panic when something jumps onto his sleeping form and settles on his rising chest. Just as he’s about to shove the Geovishap onto the floor, Spot makes a purring-sound and nuzzles his head against Diluc’s shirt. 

Diluc contemplates throwing the Geovishap across the room like a ball but then he remembers your very presence next to him and decides, fine, he’ll let Spot stay but he won’t be happy about it.

A month comes and goes and Diluc doesn’t pester you about getting rid of Spot. Whether he’s forgotten about your agreement or Spot is growing on him is still unknown but you’re delighted you get to keep your adorable baby dragon around for a while longer. On warm days, you take Spot outside and let him run around the vineyard and catch bugs. If he’s behaving, you might even tear a grape off a vine and give it to him as a snack. 

Once, Diluc sticks his head through the manor doors and calls for you. “Your oversized-lizard is getting into something down by the water,” He says. 

You head towards the lake and Diluc goes back to watering his plants. Spot is sitting on his hind legs and staring at a cryo slime. His teeth are barred and his tail is whipping wildly left-to-right. 

“Whatever you’re thinking of doing – don’t.” 

Spot looks back at you for a moment and cocks his head. He looks innocent until he turns back to the slime and lunges. He sinks his claws into the matter and, quite literally, tears it apart before your eyes. When he’s done, a pile of melting snow remains. 

You realize then how big Spot has gotten since you first brought him home. 

You scoop the Geovishap into your arms and carry him back to the manor, away from the crime scene, and decide to not mention what just happened to Diluc. Spot was probably bored – you just needed to buy him more toys. 

But soon, new toys weren’t working. The Geovishap destroyed everything you gave him, including his own bed, and Diluc was beginning to get suspicious. He was scratching furniture and knocking things off high places. He even started to dig holes all over the yard and continuously terrorize the local fauna. 

It was Diluc’s idea to bring Spot back to Liyue and you reluctantly agreed with him. 

Spot doesn’t fit in your satchel anymore so you carry him in your arms. You pat his head and squeeze him tightly, not wanting to let go so soon. When you get to the place where you found Spot, you sigh sadly. 

“I guess this is it,” You say. 

Diluc walks ahead of you and observes the area, “He’ll like it here. There’s more room to run around here than my winery.” 

He can’t help but feel…sad? He can’t imagine why – he had wanted that thing gone since the moment you brought it home. But now that the time has actually come, his chest is aching. 

“Are you going to miss him?” You wonder. 

Diluc shakes his head, pushing any thoughts of longing to the back of his head, “Miss my yard getting demolished? I don’t think so.” 

A sad-smile crossed your face, “I’m going to miss him.” 

It makes sense why. You nurtured and fed this monster back to prime health. You created a bond with him – possibly never-before-done by any living human. You truly and deeply cared for him. 

You squat and let Spot step onto the ground. He sits by your bent knee and stares at you with curious eyes. “At the end of the day, Spot is a monster,” You say. “He’s a carnivorous predator, it was a matter of time before someone got hurt, but…he was fun to have around.” 

Diluc hums in agreement. Sure, getting his antique sofa ripped to shreds was nothing less of an annoyance but he didn’t mind getting greeted at the door everyday. You stare at Spot for a while longer before standing up and taking a step back. “Ready?” Diluc asks. 

“As I’ll ever be.” Diluc holds his hand out to you and you take it, lacing your fingers together and squeezing his palm. 

You breathe in deeply, warm summer-air filling your chest, and look over your shoulder one last time. Spot stands on two-legs and watches you walk away until something catches his attention and he rolls after it. And just like that, he’s gone. 

“We can get a cat,” Diluc suggests on the way home. 

You laugh sadly, “Sure. We can name him Spot Two.” 

“Perfect.”

Unconventional Love Languages

characters: diluc and childe

cw: mentions of food (diluc’s part), use of childe’s real name, modern au, fluff, a smidge of angst

word count: 1.3k

synopsis. aside from the five love languages, how do these individuals express their love?

notes. i wasn’t kidding when I said i won’t post consistently huh? also, guess who got absolutely wrecked by school? haha that’s right, me :’))

anyways, thank you for waiting and please enjoy the new trainwreck that my brain came up with, because i know i did. love, chi <3

Diluc

diluc’s unconventional love language is food, and by extension, cooking.

i believe that the man is a great cook. have you seen his signature dish? it looks really, really good.

not many people know that he can cook, so getting to eat meals made by him pretty much means that he considers you an important person in his life.

so you might be asking, why would diluc’s love language be food? well…

it started when crepus thought it was time for both of his sons to learn how to make strawberry pancakes at 6:30 in the morning during a school day.

after little diluc burnt his first pancake, he sat down tasting the bitterness of his hard work.

despite the acrid taste on his tongue and the scowl directed at his cackling brother, his heart was full as his father gave him a new plate of picture perfect pancakes and strawberries.

though diluc was young, he could sense that those pancakes were crepus’ way of showing his affection.

from then on, he adopted his father’s way of showing love.

back then, diluc had all the time in the world to cook for the people he cherished, but as of right now? he’s a busy man with little to no time to spend in the kitchen.

between attending company meetings, running a bar, and making sure the winery meets demand, he’d rather order out or let the maids cook for him.

but he does make an exception, and that exception is you.

when you two got together, he asked what your favorite food was. after you answered his question, he held onto his chin and nodded.

the next day, you find yourself with a week’s worth of your favorite meal delivered to your doorstep by his personal driver.

this would continue on for each week after the first, with new dishes from cuisines all over teyvat. diluc didn’t stop until you decided to tell him it was appreciated but unnecessary, especially since he was already wrapped up with work.

you swore he almost looked like a kicked puppy that day.

occasionally though, you’d get food deliveries that were already paid for.

you knew who it was from and sent a thank you message to diluc straight away.

he replied back with an, “i remember that you mentioned this restaurant in passing. enjoy the food, [name].”

thinking about it, his love language shines the most when you move in with him.

when you’re visibly tired or stressed coming home from work, count on him to bring you a piping hot moon pie paired with a tender kiss on the forehead.

while you’re occupied with cleaning the penthouse, he would be preparing a lunch for two.

when the final cabinet is neat and organized, you stroll towards the kitchen where you find diluc in front of the stove. you wrap your arms around his torso and rest your head on his back, “hi.”

he laughs breathlessly, “hi.”

after those rare fights where you’re both exhausted from trying to get a point across, he’d go to the kitchen to clear up his thoughts.

just when you start tearing up at the thought of diluc leaving, he comes back with a small plate of apples, oranges, and mangos.

an apology echoes across the room and all is forgiven.

during his rare day-offs, diluc spends his time in the kitchen making strawberry pancakes.

when you finally enter the kitchen, he's behind the island counter smiling at your drowsy form.

“good morning ‘luc.” you yawn, stretching your stiffened limbs as you sit on a barstool.

“did you sleep well, love?” he’d ask while setting a plate of pancakes topped with strawberries and whipped cream in front of you.

his smile turns into a grin as your eyes lit up, “i did.” you took your first bite and sighed in delight.

“i love your strawberry pancakes, luc. they’re the best.”

“you only love the pancakes?”

you shook your head and leaned over to place a swift kiss on his lips, "nope. i love the pancakes but you know i love you more."

Childe

movies are childe’s unconventional love language.

i don’t think he would realize it at first, though slowly but surely, movies start to become a language of love for him.

it starts when he and his siblings would bond over whatever movie they wanted to watch. then, he recommends different films to his friends that they would love. as he grew older, movie marathons and post-movie discussions were always an anticipated event.

i just think that childe likes geeking out about the films he loved and complaining about ones that he didn’t like with people he cares about.

he just genuinely enjoys the whole movie experience from the prep to the actual act of watching the movie, then the conversations afterward.

as for the genre of movies he’d watch, i think childe would go for action-adventures where the protagonist goes on a mission to take over the world.

he’d also like crime documentaries or horror-thrillers with an unexpected plot twist or supernatural element.

but out of all the movies there are, there are two types that ajax enjoys the most; barbie movies and disney films.

yes. barbie and disney are childe ajax tartaglia’s favorite types of movies.

you happen to find that out pretty early on into your relationship during the first date as a couple.

ajax thought it would be fun to watch “barbie as the princess and the pauper” and the high school musical trilogy as a first date.

he was a little anxious that you wouldn’t like the films he chose.

when you saw the title card for princess and the pauper, all he saw was you staring at him with a nonchalant expression. after that, a huge smile erupted from your lips.

“princess and the pauper, really?” you teased.

childe scratched the back of his head, “tonia made me watch those movies back at home and i kinda just liked them,” he looked at you with earnest eyes and asked, “you don’t like it?”

he was surprised when you squeezed his cheeks, “i like it. i like it a lot.”

all you thought was that he was endearing. absolutely endearing.

the rest of the evening was spent finishing the movies, singing duets (“i’ll be the dominick to your erika. so sweetheart, please love me for me.” “i wouldn’t date you if i didn’t, ajax.”), and fighting about which sharpay song was the best (“we can agree with ‘you are the music in me’, right?” “no.” “but babe-”).

after a successful date, every now and then childe would send movie titles that reminded him of you.

whenever you were down, he’d ask if you wanted to come over to his apartment and watch your favorite films.

if you were too busy or aren’t in the mood, he would just send a funny clip that would instantly cheer you up.

now that final exams are over, it’s certain that a movie marathon is in preparation at ajax’s apartment.

he thought it would be a nice change of pace after the hectic schedule you both had and it would be fun to spend some time with you.

and so there you both were at his living room, in front of a flat screen tv, watching 12 dancing princesses with blankets, snacks, and all the chocolate one could ever want.

right now, ajax is content just watching films and cuddling up with you. he realizes that he could do this forever and shifts just a bit closer to you.

the movie ends and you both get to see genevieve and derek’s wedding.

childe’s eyes had an amused glint as he watched the final scene and you knew instantly that there was something on his mind.

“ajax, could you tell your beloved partner whatever it is you’re thinking about?”

he suddenly pressed his lips on your cheeks and said, “i’m just thinking about our own wedding.”

“huh!?” your eyes widened at the statement, and he was grinning from ear to ear.

POST-SCRIPT. haven’t posted a non-requested fic (exclude my evermore series) for so long so here it isss !! enjoy the short angst <333

“Choose me.” 

You watched as he stopped his tracks from your words, observing his every move with a conflicted look on your face. “Choose me over Mondstadt for once.”

“This is our home, ( Name ).” He remarked, glancing at your direction in a cold tone, something that was way different to his usual soft and warm tone that he always uses whenever it comes to you. “I thought you knew that I’m doing this for the safety of you, for the safety of our people.” 

“And I thought you knew that I’m trying to make you stop yourself from getting overworked.” You retorted, eyes narrowing. “Haven’t you realized that you haven’t been eating with me for so long and have been spending too much time with your work?” 

“I do,” He answers quickly with an irritated sigh, as if he wants this argument to end already. “But our time is the least of our worries right now. I have better places to be–”

“Like spending time in the tavern serving drinks despite the fact that Charles is there? Slaughtering every single hillichurl despite the fact that the knights are here? Everywhere that you would have not gone with the help of everyone else instead of here with me?” 

Diluc stays silent, and you clench your fists. 

“I have been here for you every step of the way, Diluc.” You explained, trying to prevent your voice from sounding shaky and fragile. “I have and will always choose you over anyone else, over my adventures that I desire.” 

You inhaled sharply. “So why… Why can’t you do the same?” 

It was evident on his face that Diluc is fighting in his thoughts, trying to say something to you that could at least make you feel reassured – anything that could make this argument at least go away – but alas, it was nothing but hopeless. 

You then let out a shaky breath. “I understand why you’re doing this Diluc, truly… But I can no longer keep it up. Not when this… Not when this has been the third time you’ve forgotten something that’s meaningful to you and I. Now that I think about it, you probably don’t see it that way” 

He immediately turns around to look at you, eyes widening in realization as regret washes over him. 

It’s your birthday today. 

“If you walk out from that door right now,” You took a moment to pause, hesitating. “If you walk out that door, then we’re through.” 

Diluc opens his mouth to try and respond, only for you to cut him off immediately. “Consider me selfish, but if you keep going like this, then there’s no point for me to be with someone who puts me as their last priority.” 

You then laughed dryly. You aren’t sure who exactly you’re laughing at, the man who tries to fix things when it’s too late, or yourself for thinking Diluc would be any different. “You won’t even try to change it, I know you won’t.” 

He stays silent in guilt.

“I don’t want you to worry about me anymore,” You mumbled, turning away from his direction with your shoulders slumped in defeat. “It’s clear to me that you only see me as a burden and not a lover.” 

You didn’t see how he tries to reach out to you, as if he wants to run towards you and hug you as he whispers sweet words that are nothing but the truth, but the chains of his father’s death and desire to make Mondstadt a safer place has stopped him. 

So, he puts down his hand and turns away, grabbing his cloak that’s hanging beside the doors as well as his claymore. 

He stops once more when he hears you speak once more.

“Thank you, Diluc Ragnvindr.” You smiled in sadness, knowing what your ex lover will choose. “Thank you for the happy memories you gave me.” 

“Because this will be the last time you’ll see me here ever again.” 

True to your word, you didn’t appear for the rest of his life after that. The moment you left, your breakup with Diluc became one of the top mysteries Mondstadt has as everyone besides your family and close friends pondered why you and Diluc, the presumedly the happiest couple, has broken up.

It didn’t matter to you what everyone thought, pushing aside the heartache that he imprinted and pursue your dreams to travel around Teyvat happily.

To this day on Diluc’s birthday when night has fallen and everyone has departed to go back to their homes and sleep, the man tried to find many ways to avoid getting back to Dawn Winery to do the same as well, 

Because he knows that he’ll never see the person who made such a huge mansion home anymore

For the first time in years, the uncrowned king had made a wish when he blew the candle. 

“I wish for ( Name ) to be happy, for I failed to achieve it as their lover.”

Surprise!

Genshin boys reacting to a surprise kiss from you!

Gn!Reader

Characters: Xiao, Childe, Thoma, Diluc, Kaeya, Aether, Venti.

Xiao:

Got extremely blushy.

Immediately pulled away and hid his face.

Maybe or maybe not, teleports away.

When he turns his head back his eyes are just wide.

Kinda like a scared cat.

"You mortals confuse me!" Or "You have no respect for the adepti!"

Xiao is so cute omg-I just wanna pinch his cheeks! 😭

Childe:

Turns into an actual child.

He gets super giddy...like a child who was given candy for the first time-

Immediately pulls you back in for another kiss.

He ends up getting too excited and accidentally knocks you both over-

Loud laughing "You never fail to amuse me!"

I hate Childe with a burning passion.😊 Childe=Child

Thoma:

Honestly, he's just a human golden retriever.

Face is red as soon as your lips touch.

When you pull away he's just nervous laughing because he wasn't expecting it. Duh-

I'm 99.9% sure that if he had a tail it'd be wagging like crazy right now-

"Hehe, did you really wanna kiss me that badly?"

Thoma literally reminds me of a dog, lol

Diluc:

Depending on where you are, and if there's candles around, you can see the flames grow bigger and wave around. (inspired)

Face turns the exact same shade as his hair.

Whips his head around super fast and coughs into his fist, and you can see the tiniest bit of smoke escape his mouth. (also inspired)

"I know you love me, but sometimes I wonder if you're trying to give me a heart attack."

Diluc honestly reminds me of a dragon, ngl-

Kaeya:

He instead makes YOU blush when HE deepens the kiss!

Did you really think you could make him blush that easily?

When he pulls away and notices your blush he just chuckles and pats your head.

Ends up making your blush even WORSE by calling you cute and pretty/handsome/beautiful, or even all three! While peppering your face in kisses.

"You'll have to try harder than that to make me blush, sweetheart." And boy do you try.

KAEYA YOU TEASE- I think I blacked out on Kaeya's part-

Aether:

Another cute, blushy boy!

He let's it happen of course, but as soon as you pull away he just covers his mouth while looking at you wide-eyed. And also shaky-eyed-

For some reason he's apologizing??? And he won't stop until you shut him up with another surprise kiss!

"I'm really sorry! I should've-! Mmff!"

Aether, my poor, sweet, summer child-

Venti:

He might've been caught off gaurd for a second, but then soon enough he's deepening the kiss and won't let you go!

Everytime you try to pull away for air he kisses you before you can even get a breath in!

I think he's trying to kill you-😨

He only stops once you start tapping his shoulder, letting him know you need air.

When he pulls away you're left GASPING, trying to catch your breath!

"Ehe~! Sorry about that, Windblume!"

Venti's definitely trying to kill you-

A/n: Believe it or not, but I actually suck at writing!! Lol, okay- On another note I kinda wanna make a fic about reader trying to make Kaeya blush- So if you're interested in that, please let me know!☺

[scarasun]

it's the little things that count.

[ || how they show their love for you. || ]

*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ ZHONGLI

— pays lots of attention to the foods you like and dislike. makes an effort to actually budget his money so he could take you out to dinner once in a while. holds your bags for you when the both of you go shopping together and won't ever complain about if you're putting too much pressure on him (he is an ex-archon after all). scribbles stanzas of love poems he has learnt over the years on sticky notes, and leaves them all over the house for you to find.

୨୧┈┈୨୧

*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ SCARAMOUCHE

— rests his head in your lap while he deals with paperwork. comfortable with you addressing him by his real name. let's you be the big spoon (doesn't tolerate your teasing though). let's you cut his hair. more open about how he feels than usual. scared of hurting your feelings (believe it or not), so he tends to sugarcoat his opinions. let's you drag him everywhere when the two of you go shopping (he secretly enjoys it).

୨୧┈┈୨୧

*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ CHILDE

— lots and lots of physical touch - seriously can't go without hugging/kissing you for a few minutes. carries you in his arms bridal style around the house. sweeps you up in his arms when he gets home from a rough day at work. gives you dorky pet names. trusts you immensely with his siblings. takes more time off work to spend with you. talks about your future together.

୨୧┈┈୨୧

*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ DILUC

— cooks for you. gives you his coat when you're cold. gets flustered around you pretty often (even if you've been together a while). showers you with hugs from behind. tries to spend less time on his dark knight hero duties so that he could be with you at night. gives you bouquets of flowers on random occasions. let's you braid his hair.

How they Show Affection Part 3: Dainsleif, Diluc

And last but not least, Dainsleif and Diluc

CW: Fluff, Dains gets a little angsty, I think, No pronouns

Dainsleif x gn!reader, Diluc x gn!reader (can be read as gender neutral reader

Dainsleif

At first, Dain is kinda at a loss as to how to show you affection

Yea, Zhongli is old, but he’s had people around. Dain hasn’t. Not really

In the end his language of affection is time. He spends as much time with you as possible, even letting you in on his adventures. Hell

Granted, even if he doesn’t say it, he really enjoys it when you touch him. He loves it when you touch his face and his hair, smoothing away his frowns and his sadness. It’s only when he finds joy in your presence and touch that he realizes that he’s fallen so low into despair. And so he wants more. More of your presence, more of your touch. And he makes an effort to give back in full measure what you give

it doesn’t take you long to realize that when Dain touches you, he touches you with reverence and gratitude, touching you like you’re the most precious thing in his world. And you are. He’s lived a long time without sun, sometimes literally, sometimes metaphorically. You’re his sun, now. No matter where he goes, he’s found light.

Diluc

Once again he’s a mix of quality time and physical touch

If he’s free he wants to be around you. And he actually bothers to take time off so he can be around you. Everyone Adelinde was shocked when Diluc started taking time off to spend it with you instead

When he’s around you, happily doing whatever, though I think sitting on the same couch reading would be very satisfying

He also asks for your input a lot. What do you link of this wine or that juice. That sort of thing. And I’ll be damned if he doesn’t cook up some drinks just for you

No matter what, he just likes being around you. Though he couldn’t deal without Kaeya’s teasing

[xinnabon]

hands, on top of yours.

DILUC !!

cold at first to touch but eventually warms your hand up right away but slowly. a few scars here and there, hand is sorta rough but quite satisfying to touch. he probably puts his hand above yours to warm up.

HEIZOU !!

i actually imagine his hands pretty cold. with how he controls his vision i can pretty much tell its very cold and sometimes when you touch his hand, a shiver just runs down on your spine. he tries to seemingly not look like he purposely touch your pinky with his and bait you to ask him to hold his hand. you two might hold hands the way how you dance with each other and do silly stuff.

XIAO !!

neither hot or cold. just the right temperature but sometimes can add onto the colder side. really, really smooth that i can imagine a text that says "SMOOTH" , all capital letters inserted in my very own forehead. he likes to intertwine his arms and yours with you then hold hands there (the palm caress hand hold just in case you don't know what i mean hehe) just to seemingly protect you in that position. and of course, place a few kisses while he's at it.

THOMA !!

slightly rough but mostly smooth just like diluc's. extremely warm. place your hand right in front of him and he might just randomly out of nowhere massage it. poor boy deserves a break these days now that he works everyday for the time being.

KAZUHA !!

cold with a pinch of warmness and pretty soft. you two might hand hold in a way where it's probably just until your fingers that's touching with his. as if it's like you fell then he offers you a hand to give you a lift.

TARTAGLIA !!

very cold. get the poor man some heater lamp, he needs it. rough and soft but mostly on the soft side. just trace through the lines in his palm then or just basically cover your hand with his if possible. please get the man some heat. probably dying on how cold his hands are.

A Knight and a King

...notes: i'm backkkkk, there will be a part 2 :D

...contains: Diluc Ragnvindr x gn!reader, royal au, angst, mentions of blood and violence

“I forbid you.”

You looked up and  spoke with a stern voice, “With all due respect my king, you cannot do that.” Diluc looks down at you with stern eyes, “I can, I am king, you will follow my orders.” You sigh and bow your head again, “My king, we are under siege, there is no time for this.” Diluc sighs and runs a hand through his hair, “Rise.”

You do as you are ordered and look at your king, his face is no longer stern and is now sullen, “Please, you know why I’m doing this.”

“I know.” you said solemnly, “But we both know where our duties lie. I have to go.” You both could hear the screaming and destruction of the kingdom from where you stood, there was no time for this argument but you can’t directly disobey your ruler. “I am not a Kingsguard so I cannot stay. I must fight with my brethren out there, it’s where I belong.” You say, trying to convince him to let you go even though you would still be going nevertheless what he says.

“I can’t let you die.” you heard him whisper. You didn’t know what to say or do. This was inevitable, you were going to die serving him, it’s just how it is. It’s your duty to give your life and entire being to him. He is the one that mustn't die. He’s far too important, while you were just one in a sea of the same knights. Offering their life to their ruler, having to die for their ruler.

“I can’t let you die either.” You didn’t know when you both moved but all of a sudden, you were both close to each other, merely a hair’s breadth apart. You could feel the sadness flowing out of him.

“It’s my honor to die for you, Your Majesty.” you whisper before pressing a kiss to his cheek and leaving the throne room.

You couldn’t look back, you just know that there was heartbreak painted on his face, as you feel yours when you finally left his line of sight. Diluc felt the tears prick his eyes, and let them flow freely. He was alone, he could cry and wallow in his sorrow as he helplessly watched his beloved walk towards danger.

He may be king but there’s nothing he could do to change your ever stubborn mind.

He loved you for that but right now, he wished you weren’t.

Diluc sobbed and wailed, clinging onto the hope that you would live and come back to him, alive and well. Hope is what kept him going as the enemies continued to surge his kingdom. All he could do was sit and wait. Wait for the agonistic screams to end. For the blood to finally run freely through the soil.

Would he even have a kingdom to rule by the end of this siege?

No, he must be optimistic, his soldiers, his knights are the best the Archons ever had to offer. He knows they’re all strong willed and capable, especially you. He had seen your strength and strategic prowess first hand. He knew what you were capable of, what you’re capable of doing. He won’t ever doubt your skills but were they enough to defeat an army of thousands?

Highly doubtful.

He was pulled back into reality when a knock reverberated from his room’s door. “Come in.” he said and Elzer, his butler, entered, “Your Majesty, there’s news of the siege.” This made Diluc stand up in anticipation, “And?”

Elzer looked hesitant to deliver the news but pushed on, “[name] has been mortally wounded.”

If I may request, a thing where Diluc's crush falls in love with the Darknight Hero after being encountering him one night, but has no clue it's Diluc himself?

diluc x gn!reader // mutual pining, fluff // anon suggestion // enjoy! <3

TW: Talk about injuries, battle scene

Ever since the almighty Diluc Ragnvindr had rescued you from a hillichurl attack, facing you was his worst nightmare.

Not because he didn’t like you, in fact he felt quite the opposite. He had been pining for you for years, and once he thought he finally had a chance to court you, in came the “Darknight Hero.”

“C’mon Diluc. If you would’ve just SEEN the way their flames burnt everything to a crisp, you would be just as awestruck as I am.” He simply nodded as you two continued to walk through the woods of Wolvendom. Diluc was hoping he could make you his specialty dish tonight, but his supply of lamp grass was running low. You decided to accompany him to make the meal all the more sweeter.

“I’m still mad at myself for not even catching a glimpse of their face. Maybe then I would’ve been able to thank them. Do you think they live somewhere here in Mondstandt? Or what if they’re a wanderer? What if-” “Y/n.” Diluc paused in the middle of the road. You hadn’t walked too far in front of him before you turned around. Looking up, you saw a face that read of annoyance and anger.

All you could do was stand in a mixture of fear and guilt. “I’m sorry, I didn’t know it angered you so much…” 

Diluc still stood silently. Was he annoyed by your presence? Did he not enjoy your company? 

After he finally registered what happened, his eyes widened. He didn’t mean to make you feel guilty, this was all his fault. “No, Y/n. I-I apologize, I didn’t mean to startle you. Let’s keep going.” The words he spoke were rushed, unlike his usual calm tone.

Neither of you had uttered a word for the next hour after the apology. The tension was thick, but it wasn’t like anyone was angry. It was simply awkward. Y/n didn’t have much else to say other than their appreciation and love for the Darknight Hero, and Diluc wasn’t a man of many words himself.

“There, this should be the last one.” You perked up at the sound of Diluc’s voice, finally breaking the silence. “All of the lamp grass we need has been collected, would you mind carrying them?”

“Oh, um, no problem Diluc!” You struggled to fit all the lamp grass in the small basket you brought. You crouched down to put the rest in your backpack, hoping that it would all-

“Y/N! LOOK OUT!”

Suddenly, a wild wolf jumped down from the hills below, inches close from sinking its claws into your skin for its next meal. A pair of strong and familiar arms tossed you to the side, successfully dodging the attack. 

“Run, go hide somewhere, I’ll find you. No need to wait for me.” He stood up, claw marks evident in his clothes. “I’ll be fine.”

You ran off into a nearby bush in order to keep a watchful eye on him. He drew out his claymore and flames surrounded the area. He kicked and launched his weapon across the trees, wincing in pain from the scratches he obtained earlier. His fighting style, his weapon, his flames, they were all familiar. 

The Darknight Hero, the mysterious vigilante you had fallen in love with, was Diluc.

A phoenix descended from his blade as the wolf was finished off. You emerged from the bush you were hiding in, quickly making your way to meet up with him.

“Diluc! Are you okay? Should I call for help? I can bandage you up if you need!” He slowly sat down on the burnt grass below him, resting from his injuries. You sat down next to him, leaning on his shoulder. 

“You’re the Darknight Hero, aren’t you?”

That was it. The question he had been begging you to ask, what he yearned for every night, had finally happened. You knew his secret, and he couldn’t be any happier.

“I am indeed.”

Your face flushed bright red as you realized all the things you said about him directly to his face. The way his flames danced effortlessly, and how he looked ever so attractive with his claymore… You said all of this, yet he didn’t object to it. In fact, it seemed as if he liked it that you were this down bad for him. He just didn’t like that you weren’t talking about him specifically.

A small chuckle escaped his lips. “You have said some pretty embarrassing things to me, haven’t you?” He placed a hand on your cheek. “You do look awfully cute when you blush.”

Diluc shifted his weight so his face was directly facing you. Before he could even make a move, you leaned in and gave him a quick peck on the lips.

Now, it was his turn to blush. However, he couldn’t settle with just one quick kiss.

Can I get some more diluc voicelines? Like just general things

Sorry it took so long! I just didn't know what to write at all. (And I still don't know if I wrote something right). But in any case, I hope you like it!

Just Diluc's voice lines addressed to his wonderful partner

~

"Hello": "Oh, it's you. It's good to see you. I can't say I like working in a tavern, considering all these drunks around, but the thought of having to run so far to come to the distillery is even more unbearable. So come more often, you make my work not so terrible"

"Relax": "Huh? Do I need to relax? Don't be silly, the shift ends only in two hours... W-wait, where are you dragging me?!. Ah, well, I'll lie down for a while. But if it's inconvenient for you to stand behind the counter and serve customers, just tell me!"

"When it rains": "Take my coat instead of an umbrella, I don't want you to get wet. What? Are you warm? I'm glad. Ah-h?.. Does it smell like me? D-don't say such embarrassing things out of the blue!"

"Sun is out": "Such days are ideal for outdoor training. No, no, I would never prefer my "night job" to you. Just thinking out loud, don't pay attention, spark"

"Wind is blowing": "It's getting chilly. Come on, come here. I know, I know, I said I didn't want to show our relationship. But I can't let you get sick. So hurry up and come to me and hide under your coat. Do you mind if I hug you and hold you to my chest?"

"Good morning": "Good morning, spark. You look cute with disheveled hair. I can help you put them in order... eh? Do you want to stay in bed a little longer? Then you'll have to hug me tighter."

"Good afternoon": "Time is running fast. It's already day. How are you, spark? Do you want some grape juice? Here, you can drink from my glass. Don't worry, I have more”

"Good evening": "Without you, every minute seems longer than it really is. I'm glad that we can finally relax just the two of us. Am I talking like a typical romantic from a book? D-don't be silly!"

"Good night": "Good night, (Y/N). I love you. See you tomorrow. Oh, by the way, feel free to take my blanket if you get cold. I'm not freezing. A? C-can you hug me instead? I guess nothing terrible will happen"

"Interesting things": "Did you know that the bigger and richer the alcohol, the greater the percentage of cocoa should be in chocolate with it? M? Do you want to try? Then I will definitely try to bring you some after the next business trip."

"Diluc's hobbies": "Did you bring the painting? (Y/N), you know I don't collect works of art… Oh, so you painted this landscape? Your skills are impressive as always, I thought it was the work of a professional artist. Ok, I'll add one piece of art to the house collection just for you"

"Diluc's troubles": "Sometimes it seems to me that you can be attacked at any moment. I will only turn away, and my rivals and enemies will pounce on you. Yes, yes, I know that you can stand up for yourself, spark. But I'm still worried, you know? I can't... lose you too."

"Birthday": "It's amazing how fast time runs. So you're one year older. M? Do you feel sad about this? No need, (Y/N). This date only means that we spent a wonderful year together and will spend as much more. Come on, smile. Yes, that's it. You know... every time I see your smile, I fall in love with you even more. Hmm? Yes, you're not the only one making me blush, spark. Well, now... shall we go see the gift?

Late Night Kisses Visits

pairings: diluc x gn!reader

date: 1/5/22

warnings: super super sappy stuff, fluff

sypnopsis: diluc visits you through the window (≧▽≦) kinda meant this for his birthday but its ok to be a little late ehe

genshin m.list

Diluc is basically Mondstadt's batman. He stays up late watching Mondstadt incase there were any danger lurking around the corner because as he says, the Knights of Favonius were always slacking.

You live in the city, where everyone would be up and about in the day selling their fruits and performing their everyday duties. But now, it was quiet and dark, nobody was out this late at the night.

And Diluc, well, he lives super far away. It is quite a distance from Mondstadt city to the Winery, so you would often expect your boyfriend at your window to rest for the night.

But you were already knocked out like a light by the time he arrives, so he knocks quietly, but loudly enough for you to hear. You jolted awake, startled from the knock that sounded from your quiet room.

You put on your slippers by the bed and got up, not wanting to keep him waiting as your room was literally two floors off the ground. As soon as you opened the window's handles, he'd already leaned onto your shoulder.

He was still sitting on the windowsill, but the tiredness overtook him and let him drop onto you, but still remembering to not put all his weight onto you so you won't fall back from the sudden armless hug. You wrapped your arms around him to catch him, all the sleepiness from your eyes were already gone.

"Hey there." You greeted, smiling ever so gently.

He paid no mind to the greeting because he moved over a bit and started giving lazy kisses from your neck to your earlobe. You laughed from the ticklish feeling, pulling him closer so he wouldn't sit in such an uncomfortable position anymore.

You kicked off your slippers and plopped the both of you on the bed, giggling quietly as you were giving each other sleepy kisses. "It's a bit too late now, we should go to sleep." He hushed you as soon as you said that, leaning over to give you another kiss on the lips.

His lips were so soft against yours and he was so near to you, you could smell his scent which smelled of grass and alcohol combined- but in a good way. It was a relaxing scent that let you easily melt into his passionate kiss and warm touch.

Right now, all he could think about is kissing you more and more till you couldn't scold him for staying up so late anymore. The only light in the room was the bright moon shining from your window which allowed him to observe your beautiful face.

How could he not admire such a piece of art and give you all the affection he has? At this pregnant pause, you started to grow hot from the staring and hide in his hair. He chuckled at this, kissing your earlobe again as it was all he could reach. Before pulling back to lay down on your bed properly, he whispered into your ear, "You're more beautiful than the finest of gems and jewels in all of Teyvat."

What a heartthrob, honestly! He will definitely kill you one day from how much he makes your heart race, he wants you to know just how much you make his heart race too. Oh you know, alright. He spoons you close to his chest and you could definitely hear the drumming beating of his big heart.
