over 200 notes, what is going on
~~~
IN YOUR ARMS
~~~
Asking them to lift you with one hand so you can sit on their forearm <3
gn!reader + diluc, itto, kazuha, established relationships
warnings: fluff, reader is smaller than them
:readmore:
~~~
Diluc
- He is surprised at your request but you look so exited, its impossible for him to say no
- No struggle for him at all, he bends down, asks you to hold on to his neck and with one motion you are lifted up and pressed close to the red head
- What he didn't anticipate was the amount of praise spilling in his direction, crowned with a kiss on his cheek
- A glare at your direction, trying to hide his fluster while you giggle at him, he realizes you are at a perfect distance to kiss
- You may stay on his arm for a while
~~~
Itto
- The guy is so excited! And of course doesn't niss the opportunitiy to boast about his strenght
- You should have clarified what you meant tho, because now you are dangling from under his arm like a sack of potatoes
- He sees your pout, puts you down and asks what did he do wrong. He is so worried inside that he screwed up
- When you explain you wanted to sit on his arm, not hang from it, he scoops you right up, no warnings, you barely have time to loop your legs around his torso
- As you come to your sences from the sudden movement (and the embarassing yelp you let out) , Itto's other hand is proudly on his hips, having the biggest grin, demanding a reward
- You guess he deserves a kiss
~~~
Kazuha
- You were half joking, but you're a fool if you think Kazuha would pass up an opportunity to be close to you
- But not before the right amount of teasing. Just gently nuging you and asking what novel did you find this idea in
- The task prooves harder than it seems, not because of his lack of strenght, but for the fact that he can't get enough of your flustered face while he stands close and slowly loops his arm around you
- He takes your hand himself to put around his neck, giving it a kiss when it rests on his shoulder
- You are about to bail on this when he gently hoists you up and you grab onto his clothes
- If you didn't look like a tomato yet, you surely do now, him gazing up at you like you are the sun
- Even before he could say anything to tease you further, you decide to shut him up with a kiss. Let's not mention that this was your plan all along

Help to blame
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Diluc x favonius assistant gn!reader
Warnings: solution to an argument
part 1 here
Synopsis: You try to help Diluc lighten his workload, but he turns his stress against you, hurting your feelings with it. You set him straight in anger and storm away. Now he is burried deep in guilt, the question is if he will ever succefully apologize
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Notes: whowie, actually a part 2! I honestly didnt expect people liking the first one so much (45 notes is a lot when thats the second thing u ever post, okay?) so today I found the motivation to finish it. Turned from “could be platonic” to “no way this aint romatic”. What can I say, I am a simp for this man.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The vineyard bloomed in the fresh spring winds, not caring about its owners heavy heart. If anything, the contrast made Diluc sigh more frequently, reminding him of how unfairly he treated such a sweet person. He didn't care that his workload almost doubled because of it, felt like it was well deserved on his end, but it didn't ease his guilt.
He wanted nothing more than to solve this, to apologize and get back the sunshine person that you were. It felt strange to not get greeted by sparkling eyes whenever he walked into the Favonius headquarters. He missed the conversations at Angel's Share that kept him entertained while dealing with customers. He felt a void crawl at his chest at the realization of how much comfort you actually were in his life and that he needed a petty argument to notice it.
Still, he kept quiet and avoided you like wildfire. He was afraid of you not accepting his apology, his guilt convincing him youd have no reason to do so. Maybe childish of him to think so, but he'd rather hope than get rejected. 
Two weeks went by like this, nothing changed in the eyes of a stranger. Two weeks, when you showed up in Angel's Share. Honestly you hoped youd find Charles behind the counter... no, actually, that wasnt honest, but still, you've seen no attempt, no regret from Diluc, so why cross paths.
"What can I help you with?" his voice was softer, quieter than you remember, but it was enough to make you not flee immediately.
"Just some papers... the new oak barrels ordered... the contract..." you did not look at his face while fumbling with not just the papers you were supposed to hand over. You didn't even do anything wrong, still you couldnt stop your hands from shaking.
"Thank you, Y/N" he put down the vine bottle he was holding. The void screamed at him so loud inside - seeing how the usual cheerfulness was replaced by so much sadness on your face because of him. Couldnt decide if it was worse to see you like this or when you were angry, either way his heart could barely handle it. He reached out to take the contract you slid over on the counter. "Actually wanted to check on this matter today... you always know how to help" those last words were quiet, barely reaching your ears but making you pick your head up and freeze non the less.
"I'm..." what are you supposed to say to that? Was that the apology? At least now it seemed like he was trying to mend things but... that was it? The anger you felt weeks ago started to resurface. 
"Diluc Ragnvindr" his hand whinced back a little at your stern voice. "You are coming with me. Yes, right now" you saw the unasked question in his eyes. "I'm done dancing on fire and I'm sure you don't want to have this conversarion in front of your patrons." Your hands were crossed over your chest and even tho you managed a level head voice, it resulted in such cold demeanor, Diluc barely recognised you behind it. 
"Of course" was all he managed, put the papers under the counter, waved at his workers to show he will be out for a bit and than followed you out. He felt like a scolded child, the weeks of guilt poking at his throat, but he was determined to use this opportunity right.
"So?" you suddenly turned around when you arrived in an alley behind the bar. Maybe he wasnt as prepared as he thought, staing into those eyes he liked to see shine, now furrowed. After long moments of silence he cleared his throat and tore his eyes away from your face. 
"I am... I didn't mean when..." he mentally slapped himself. What a great way to start. The big breath he took made his eyes shut. "I didn't mean what I said that day. I am so sorry for taking your help for granted, I..." he felt a hand squeezing at his arm which stopped him from rambling on and made him look up. His eyes widened with panic at your teary eyes.
"I thought you didn't care" you admitted while gently holding on to his bicep. You wiped the escaped tears with your free fingers and smiled. Diluc could have swore the sun started to shine brighter. "Im also sorry for blowing up on you" the smile turned sheepish, but the red head still soaked it up with joy, like he was trying to make up for the days missing.
"There is nothing to apologize for you, Y/N" he took your hand off his arm and held onto it longer than he meant to. Why is it so soft? He came back to reality when he heared you chuckle and say probably because you had good skincare routines, voice a tad teasing. In an attempt to hide his embarrassment, he exsused himself and went back to the bar, but even when he walked in the door, his face was still noticeably pink, to the delight of Kaeya, who now had new material to tease his brother with.

Nightly duties
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Diluc (x?) gn!reader (its a first meeting, nothing romantic, but you can read it that way if youd like)
Just a v short drabble ^^
Summary: reader lives on the streets of Mondstadt, barely scraping by. When they go for a pocket out of desparation, they didn't expect anyone to catch them, especially not the Darknight hero
Warnings: food mention, starving
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Your legs carried you as fast as they could. Why did someone have to notice? And why are they so fast? A blade cut threw these thoughts as you literally had to dodge to the side to avoid a greatsword, coming right down at your shoulder. In the dark however you tripped, turned over on the ground and tumbled into a stack of wooden boxes with a loud thud. You didn't even have time to recover as someone held their weapon to your neck.
"That is not your money" the tone calm, too calm for your comfort, it made your breath hitch. What to do, what? Do you hand the mora to him? But you need it, you really do, you wanna live but also you wanna live by avoiding this mans greatsword. As your eyes wandered to his face, desparately trying to catch your breath that was knocked out of you, all you saw was a mask and a dark hood. The feeling of sharp eyes didn't leave you, only when your stomack loudly complained. It turned... curios? Frustrated?
"Please, I'm starving" you finally got out. A few more seconds and the weapon lowered. His stance became less readied, but you would be a fool to think you have a chanse to get away.
"That family needs the mora just as much as you" reason that you pushed down never had such a gentle voice. He was right, you knew but ... "I can help you."
"Help me?" You heared that before, but it never came free. "For what? I don't have anything you need."
"For nothing" your eyes narrowed. Is he playing with you? He sounded honest... and really, what other choise you have? At least he won't kill you.
"All right" you took the about hundred mora out of your pocket and still reluctantly, but held it up. He shook his head.
"You have to give it back."
"Don't do this honorable bullshit with me" you groaned while rolling your eyes and dropping your head against the wooden crate. What is this, a cheesy novel?
"I thought you were hungry" was that a smug smile? The audacity.
"Hhhh, fine, I'm going" with a sigh you clambered up, cursing slightly while your body dissagreed with the movement. You set off, deciding to "steal" the money back to the pocket you took it out of, when his voice caught you again.
"Go to the Good Hunter after, a meal will be ready for you" and with that, he dissapeared. Huh, he is interesting. Maybe you'll ask Sarah who ordered you food.

Help to blame
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Diluc x favonius assistant gn!reader (platonic or romantic, you decide :P)
Warnings: bit of angst, argument (solution - part 2 here)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Diluc is a hard working man, always have been. His days consist of more work than sleep, which honestly has a lot of people worried. No matter how gently Barbara instruct him or how Kaeya jokes about it, the red head would listen to no one but himself. There is one kind of work he would rather forget about - anything that has to do with the Knights of Favonius. And now he has more than three months of work piled up neatly in stacks. He knew it would come bite him back, but he kept putting it off for so long and he can only continue doing so if he wishes Jean to take matters into her own hands. Diluc would very much wish to avoid that, the acting grand master has enough work as is. With a deep sigh he moved the stacks on his table and began chipping away at it. Which, at his pace meant getting half of it ready in a week.
Which also means extra work for you, the Favonius assistant. You became an expected visitor at the winery as you transfered documents back and forth, compare and confirm on each one with Diluc. You held much respect for him, saw how much he did and because of that, you didn't mind the extra hours you had to put in. Proudness was all you felt at the end of these long days, glad that you could take some work off of his shoulders. Maybe you were alone in this feeling tho.
- Yn, I appreciate the help, but I dont need you babying me - Diluc stood straight, hands behind his back, as composed as he could be, but what he said told otherwise. You stopped stacking the papers you held, movements suddenly stopped while you looked up into his tired eyes with shock. And maybe a bit of hurt.
- ... babying? - did you really hear that right? As you searched his face for an answer, you found only an irritated twich of his eye and a stern look.
- You've been more usual here than clients the past days, much more than it is needed for buisness. I don't think bringing gifts has to do anything with...
- You think im here to take care of you? - you didn't let him finish. Is he really this blind? - Im Jean's assistant! The paperwork you send to the Favonius office goes threw me! I thought itd be faster if I bring and take the papers myself. Not my fault that *someone* decided to have a marathon of submitting three months of material in a week. But I'll have the messengers take care of it than, so I stop being such a big pebble in your boot - you angrily slammed the papers on the table twice and showed them in your bag while muttering - Fuck me for trying to get work done and trying to be nice while at it.
Before he could answer you turned on your heel and left without goodbye. Diluc was shocked beyond belief. He never heared you angry. Annoyed sure, when he would refuse to take a break just for two bites, but angry - it twisted his heart the wrong way. He couldn't even be mad at you about it, it really wasn't your fault that all his stress found you to blame. Honestly, with all the fruits and baked goods you brought over you've been a life saver - while it was an extra interruption from the maids to bring it in, he has eaten better than usually when he gets into work this deep.
As he quietly stood in front of his desk, deflating more and more by the minute, Adeline gently knocked on his door and came in without waiting for an answer. She put a plate of neatly cut sunsettias and apples on the desk than quickly excused herself with a light bow. Diluc could only stare at them in the cavalcade of his self blame, but he was sure of one thing - he needs to find time to apologize.

HAVE YOU CONSIDERED
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Albedo x gn!reader
Warnings: none, just all fluff
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For one, you hated the winter, just too cold, too unpredictable. However, it had some advantages, like waking cuddled up with your beloved. Tho, that might not be the best for your work.
You opened your eyes and let a drowsy smile slip as you saw Albedo already awake, looking at you gently and holding your hand in his.
"Good morning" he said with a quiet voice. Even in the morning, it never turned raspy.
"Morning" you answered and promptly decided to prop your hands and head on his chest and looked up at him. Tiel eyes gazed back half lidded but with the gentleness only he could look at you with. His hair messy but somehow perfect, ready to tempt your fingers.
"Have you considered not looking so handsome?" you sighed playfully. "I wouldn't have such a hard time waking up than."
"Oh?" he hummed with a smile. "Thats the only reason for you to stay?"
"You are right" you burried your nose next to the little star on Albedo's neck. "You should have considered not having the gentle heart I fell in love with."
"Would you prefer for me to change that?" Albedo's smile widened and his hands found your back and held you close.
"No" you hummed happily. "I'd rather not wake up."
