Gilded Sea's Dream [Ep 18/?]
< [Ep1] [Ep17]
The use of kohl is just my worldbuilding headcanon! Tho it's canon that Jeht mentioned lapis lazuli eyeshadow as sunscreen.
I'm not sure if irl people actually use it when traveling tthrough the desert? 🤔 (I've never been to any actual desert and god I hope I never have to)
also Kaveh is the bennett of sumeru 😭

You mentioned reading alot of found family on Ao3? Could we have some recommendations? (I am starving for some good found family fics rn)
MY FAVORITE GENSHIN AO3 WORKS // ALL COMPLETED
// This took so long because I had to compile my absolute favorites for found family 😌 everything here is complete, everything here wrecked me. TW DO NOT READ WHEN YOU'RE BUSY BECAUSE I GOT HOOKED. OP I'm so glad you asked me-
Song of Resistance: Frostborn Loyalty by TheOpticalMouse
Song of Resistance: Flames of Defiance by StrangeDiamond
// Diluc and Kaeya and the rest of Mondstadt. The Fatui takes over Mond and they band together forming the resistance to take it back. They should be read together!!, includes a lot of other beloved characters, they're actually selling a book for it with illustrations by @f-ai-n and I'm planning on getting it (if it weren't for the shipping fee that costs more than the book). There's a specific order to read the chapters to make both stories fit together, please take the time to read it!
The Burden Of Memories by The Optical Mouse // series // DILUC GETS AMNESIA bc of the abyss AND THINKS KAEYA IS STILL HIS BROTHER. A LOT OF ANGST. WHAT MORE DO YOU NEED?? made me sob at 2am twice.
Watcher of the Night by nacaratskies // series // the reincarnation-turn back time AU with Diluc. He dies at 22, wakes again as a 17 y/o. Everyone notices he's changed. 17 y/o kaeya is worried but diluc doesn't give af. (lots of angst and screaming. poor kaeya, poor diluc, poor everyone, made me cry)
no love lost, not for him by li2 // series // familial hanahaki disease with Kaeya who doesn't believe he's loved and is dying from it. lots of comfort, unreliable narrator
Lost in the Underground by Quontice // series // for the horror lovers out there <3 Kaeya goes missing and something sinister lurks underground. Diluc tries to find him.
Home is Where my Brother Lays by Trashbin2020 // series // I CRIED. Two different timelines crashing. Kaeya "dies" and "lives again" in a world where Cavalry Captain Diluc lost his brother. Whereas, Diluc is desperate to get him back.
[COMIC] Voices in Ice and Snow by 4dango // art, comic // albedo gets corrupted by during, angst and action. made me love albedo, and fall for diluc even more.
The call is coming by actualromeo // fic // what if the chasm quest which affected the hilichurls also affected kaeya?
And here are some similar works that I've yet to finish but has the potential of being a favorite:
Oh, How Inconvenient by DiamondDove / series
The Rise of Diluc Ragnvindr by @richardgraysonpercyjackson / 4 arcs, a rollercoaster
Can Everyone in Mondstadt Just CHILL OUT For a Second?? by Anonemoni / series
Dawn's Alibi by Primarina / series

Related to the bennet and diluc hc, i've actually also read a comic headcanon by 4dango on instagram (i think) wherein it was a hc that diluc was the one who taught razor how to use his claymore, hence he's able to control it better compared to say chongyun. It was so cute bc it actually really fits canon and there are no plot hoes whatsoever so I see it as canon now tbh,, even fits with diluc's "im cold and aloof but I actually really care and want to help" shtick
ooooooo wait that’s so wholesome,,,
i feel like kaeya would help razor too !!! i feel like all of the genshin adults would collectively adopt razor, but lisa was the one who found him first ;;;;
at the end of the day, diluc is pretty aloof, but he’s still a gentleman in all of his voice lines !!! he’s not uncaring he’s just emotionally constipated :( he’s not as charismatic as the likes of lisa or kaeya, unfortunately, therefore i feel like a lot of ppl just think he’s mean :(
