[Image description: Two pages containing multiple drawings of Diluc and Childe respectively.

The first page has two drawings of Diluc participating in dressage. He is dressed in a formal black suit jacket, white button up shirt, white breeches, and black riding boots. He rides a chestnut horse whose mane is knotted for the competition. The horse carefully raises a foreleg on one side and a hind leg on the opposite side. There are also two drawings of Diluc when he was younger. He takes off his riding helmet after a competition and glances to the side. A few droplets of sweat drip down his face.

The second page has two drawings of a younger Childe meeting a younger Diluc at the equestrian competition. Childe stands in the audience and his attention is drawn to Diluc. He stares in awe when they make eye contact. There are also two drawings of a present-day Childe. One depicts him from the waist up, a hand raised to sling a navy suit jacket casually over the shoulder. He is wearing a white button up and breeches. He smiles and looks to the side. The other drawing shows Childe riding a black horse as he partakes in a show jumping event. His horse is mid jump, with its forelegs raised and its body about to clear a fence. Childe’s body is poised and snug against the horse’s back.]

Still thinking about the anon from yesterday and the more i think about it the more mad i get like you're insane for calling kaeya mid i hope you blow up. Bitching in the tags ft arguments my smart sexy boyfriend brought up yesterday while we were talking about this so credit where credit is due

[latinokaeya-moving]

what do you guys think kaeyas horse would be called :-)

If Diluc found out about Kaeya’s secret from literally anyone else i would have understood his anger and unwillingness to make up with kaeya even years later.

but it’s not the case and Diluc is a complete idiot

[m1d-45]

i would share my builds but. i’m gonna be honest i just go with vibes. weapon would look pretty with certain character? it’s theirs now. artifacts seem even slightly useful regardless of whether or not they’re the most efficient set? slap those bitches on. i play genshin like i play pokemon: with my favorites and while pressing as many buttons as possible until the enemy dies - teddy anon

OH YOU JUST LIKE ME FR FR

kazuha has the isshin sword even though i have an aquila favonia cause that goes to kaeya who i built because i like him, even when he did lower damage. i run kazuha as a dps even though he’s supposed to be support (i have a p well done diluc that does more normal attack damage but.. kazuha :] and kukis supposed to be like a hyperbloom driver i think but i have her as healer. my baizhu is currently using her set cause i like the burn reaction (w benny, who i still haven’t built properly (just a ton of er for burst stuff) and only use for pyro applications lmao) even though he’s supposed to be like. a sub dps. he and kuki probably work well together but i can’t hear that over the sound of my burst support childe who ran freeze with kaeya for an embarrassing amount of my early abyss runs. i still haven’t attempted floor twelve and unless i get my shit together i don’t think i will. strategy i hardly know her, i just go “unga bunga men pretty” and that got me to ar 57. i have yet to level my mona despite her being a great support (she does have a r5 dragons tales for when i want childe to look pretty against the pyro flower but that’s it) and my xingqiu still doesn’t have good artifacts. my team ‘comps’ are “dps dps.2 sub dps/applicator healer” and i have not strayed from this in my entire time playing. chongyun is objectively bad for my current playstyle but that has not stopped me from trying. i will get a freeze team with him xingqiu and maybe kaeya if it kills me

Thank you so much for sharing 'Wisdom of the Enneagram' with us. It's so interesting learning about the different types in depth and helpful for analyzing characters!

Recently, I've been trying to pinpoint the traveler. Do you have any thoughts on Aether's enneagram type? (#3) Thank you in advance <3

I'm answering this out of order because oh my God I did not think anyone actually paid attention to those tags HAHA. I can't believe you actually looked up that book I am honestly like both impressed and flattered. It is a super helpful book to understanding characters and their motivations.

What is Aether's enneagram type?

Analysis below!

I'm going to answer your question in a more train of thought process because the Traveler is a really interesting character. They're meant to be a faceless character we can project ourselves on, but they certainly do have a personality. That being said, do we know enough about their personality to be able to pinpoint an ennea? If I have to be honest with you, I don't have a set idea of what they can be.

The best way to do process of elimination with ennea is to focus on the triads. What is their core emotion? Shame (heart triad), fear (head triad), or anger (gut triad)? Do they have issues with identity (heart triad), security/anxiety (head triad), or autonomy/control (gut triad)?

The hard thing about the Traveler is that the only time they show emotion is when it has to do with their sibling. But what else do we know about them? They don't like being tricked. They don't like being obligated to do things out of the goodness of their heart. They're friendly. They like cracking jokes. They like playing around.

I think, with what we're given, we can throw the heart triad out right from the start. The traveler shows no signs of shame. They have no issues with their self-image. Based upon their bond with their twin and Paimon, the answer seems to lean the most to wanting support and guidance. But can it be said their core emotion is fear? Could it possibly be anger instead?

Unfortunately I'm going to have to cheat a bit here and go based purely off of my knowledge of actual people and their types. If the traveler is a head type, the only type they can be is a 7. 5 and 6 simply are not their vibe. They'd probably be a 7w8. That being said, a 7's core aspects do not match that of the Traveler as seen above.

If the Traveler is a gut type, the only types they can be is a 9w8 or a 1w9. Simply put, they are not aggressive enough to be an 8. The argument for 9w8 is that... well... this type I fall to when most other types don't match. HAHA A 9w8 is primarily peace seeking, but won't hesitate to fight and assert themselves if they see the need to. The core aspects of a 9 match as well, as seen below.

The argument for 1w9, though, and also the one I'm leaning more towards is that 1s are very judgmental. And the Traveler is extremely judgmental. LOL 9w8s literally don't care. Just leave them alone. 1s, on the other hand, typically have superiority complexes. LOL Not to say that the Traveler does, but I digress. Unlike 9s, the Traveler does not hesitate to judge. They are self-driven and won't hesitate to make decisions based upon what they feel to be right. That being said, the core aspects do not match, at least with what we know of the Traveler currently.

So those are my picks as to their possible type. I am leaning more towards 1w9, even though we don't have enough canon evidence to support it. Probably a 1w9 so/sx. But if we go based off of canon evidence, they'd probably be a 9w8.

important : the first thing you see of Kaeya when we’re first introduced to him, is his legs and then his ass. And if that doesn’t sum up all you need to know about him, then idk what to tell you ANSZIZJZHUX

@dilucisms has said:

this is what big brothers are for. silently holds out his own hands --- c'mere, kaeya, let big bro help out a little. after all, that's what a pyro vision's good for, right ?

It seems making exceptions is a must-follow protocol when interacting with Diluc. Kaeya seldom hesitates. Yet now he does. Kaeya seldom is lost for words. Yet now he is.

The azure gaze that once faced Diluc shifts to his open hands. A silent invitation... One that brings many memories along with it. Memories of nights past, cold and freezing, where Kaeya would scoot closer to Diluc, because his body has always been warmer, even before gaining a vision. He recalls those nights, when they would sit in front of the fireplace, wrapped up in a single blanket while holding each other's hands. The memory is as beautiful as it is painful.

For a single moment, he allows a certain fragility to take over him, as he perfectly embodies the role of the youngest of brothers, who relies on the older one for some sort of comfort. However, instead of completely giving in and reaching out for an embrace, both of his hands reach Diluc's. Holding them like he once had. And it feels... strange. But also right. Like the missing piece of a puzzle that has waited to be completed for a long while, and now finally is. Indeed... It is just as he remembers.
