HC that kaeya as kid never cried, no matter who's scolding him, no matter how hard his fall was, if his favourite toy broke and no matter how much in pain he is, he never shed a single tear

Instead, it was Diluc that used to cry in his stead. He's the one whoes screams are heard when kaeya injured himself playing, and he was the one who panicked and wailed until kaeya was found after losing him in the woods.

Kaeya never understood his actions, why would he screams for his own pain, crying tears that were supposed to be his?

Comforting words falling from his own lips instead of drowning in their warmth. But it's okay.

It was okay for him since Diluc's tears and warm love were like a summer shower filling his cold, empty heart.

That's until that fateful day.

The day when Kaeya needed someone to cry in his stead the most, to scream out his anguish, to curse the Divine that cursed him first.

It was the day he needed Diluc the most, but alas, he finds himself yet again abandoned in the rain with nothing but a frozen heart and a ruined pride.

#this hc was supposed to end with how his first time crying infront of diluc was because out of relief #that he and his people no longer cursed and you know how he finally found his happy ending #and crying all the tears the years sealed away #but it's not a kaeya related hc if he wasn't completely miserable <3 #this is NOT diluc slander page btw lmao i feel like it needs to be said #ily diluc #ALSO crybaby diluc >>>>>>> #i wrote the whole thing for crybaby diluc actually #if you read in the tags so far ily here's a cookie 🍪 #genshin impact #genshin impact kaeya #kaeya genshin impact #kaeya #kaeya headcanons #genshin impact diluc #diluc genshin impact #diluc #kaeluc #luckae #btw you're free to see this as romantic or platonic idrc i just love these two idiots in all forms and shapes <3
