Hello! Can I please request Diluc x Reader angst/eventual fluff where the reader is his s/o that is a knight and false info spreads that they were killed in action but they end up showing up at the tavern just badly injured. I’m craving some emotional Diluc angst and seeing Kaeya and the gang comfort him. Thank you in advance I hope it’s not to much❤️❤️
anon i love this request sm...... thank u..... im sorry for the late response!! i hope this is to ur liking!! <3
(also lookie im finally using the new banners ehehehe i might update the older posts as well but im lazy so we'll see)
pairing: diluc x gn!reader
content warnings: mentions of death, blood, + alcohol
Tumblr media
Rumours spread through the city of freedom like wildfire, to the point that even Diluc—who spares himself from fraternizing with Knights, save for the significant exception of you—has heard of them.
Of course, he pays them no mind. He'll hear firsthand from you, thank you very much—but when it has come to the point that Kaeya walks up to him looking more somber than he's seen him in years, he can't help but dry the glass in his hand a little more forcefully than normal.
"Diluc," he says. Not brother, not the teasing Master Ragnvindr—just his name and the heavy, sober look in his eyes. "...I'm sorry for your loss."
The feeling of Diluc's heart dropping is more vivid than anything else. "What kind of game is this, Kaeya?" he replies. "...It's not funny."
"Have you not heard the rumours?" Kaeya continues. "They've been missing for days. If—"
"Shut up."
He doesn't even want to entertain the thought, no matter how much it creeps up on him from the back of his mind. You're gone, you're gone, you're gone, and he would have to give you a closed-casket funeral and mark an empty grave with your name, and every night he'd return home and his home would be filled with reminders of you—
Ah, how stupid he was to have trusted the Knights for even a moment—perhaps if he were more vigilant, if he were stronger or smarter or faster, would you still be by his side? Would you still be sitting on the other end of the bar, sipping at your dandelion wine, waving at Kaeya as he came in to pester Diluc for the upteenth time that day?
So many woulds and should haves and what ifs, that he scarcely noticed the glass he had been drying had fallen to the floor. 
Even more faraway was the feeling of Kaeya's hand resting on his shoulder—light and hesitant and awkward, but for the first time in years Diluc had not the strength to push his brother away.
"I'm sorry," Kaeya says again, and this time Diluc has no choice but to accept it.
Jean came over the next day with her condolences, looking almost as bone-tired as he felt. "They were very brave," she says, squeezing his hand in comfort. "We'll always be here for you if you need us, Diluc."
All he could do was nod tensely into the hug she pulled him into.
Later that day, Amber and Lisa came by as well with a bouquet of flowers. That unbearable bard Venti was surprisingly more sober that day, choosing to simply strum his lyre and hum a tune rather than drinking enough to drown a horse. 
Diluc closes his eyes. Kaeya was sitting at his usual table in the tavern, his back facing him, but for once he doesn't recoil from the thought of his presence. It was his own way of showing condolences, he knew. Somehow, it was…nice.
Somehow, all these gestures still felt so empty without you. 
The tavern is empty that night, save for the two brothers. Diluc is drying glasses again, while Kaeya takes sips from his nth glass of wine. When the door creaks open, he can only sigh and say, "We're closed."
A dry, tense, familiar laugh rings from the doorway. "Even for me, my dearest?"
He looks up, then, setting the glass down to see how you lean one shoulder against the doorway. You're absolutely soaked in blood—Archons, the smell clogs his nose and makes his head spin, but still he walks closer, ever closer to you. 
When he takes you in his arms, everything feels right again. "You're back," he says, his voice strained. "You're here."
You bury your face into the crook of his neck, and make a mental note to yourself to apologise for staining his clothes so red. "I'm here," you say, and his grip on you tightens lightly, desperately, pleadingly—don't leave don't leave don't leave.
"...This time, I won't ever leave your side."

Exhausted (Some Chilumi cuz why not =D )
Haha computer go clicck clack.
After seeing @restlessfandoming writing some awesome fanfics, me -along with my mediocre vocabulary- thought I'll try to make my own. I found Chilumi cuz of their writing, so I think there's no harm in making my own.
P.s: if u read this, ur writing is superior to mine (@restlessfandoming)
(SPOILERS: Events after 1.1 update)
< Part One >
Why is everyone one here so needy?!?! Can’t I just have a break for one single day!?
Lumine - the hero of Mondstat, was tired, exhausted, and breathless. She hadn’t slept on a comfy bed, ate a decent meal, or even sat down and took a couple of breaths for herself for a good month now.
She’d just finished quest after quest, fight after fight, journey after journey. She couldn’t count how many places she visited today. And while it was heartwarming to hear the people’s thank-you’s and receive their rewards during her treks, it wasn’t enough to swing her out of this coma.
To her, it just felt instinctual. She doesn’t even notice it anymore.
And despite being a tad bit oblivious -and dare I say, stupid- at times, the traveller’s guide, Paimon, was the first to pick up on it.
“Oh god, you look more depressed than Diluc!” She joked; but to some extent, she was right. Lumine just shook those words off like some dust off her shoulder, as she ventured through the busy streets of Liyue.
"I'm fine.." Lumine said.
All of these adventures came at a cost: paid usually by time, energy, and patience. But when all was settled, she still hadn’t met all of the Seven, or even found a clue to find her brother.
The thought would immediately drain any happiness she found in Teyvat.
But of all the people she has met, and all the people she has fought alongside and against, only one really caught Lumine's attention.
The Eleventh Harbinger, Childe.
The flipside of a ruthless harbinger being as protective and supportive to anyone was puzzling her. Even after the Harbinger explained his morals and goals, she simply couldn’t fathom the idea of it.
They did have their share of tussles and disagreements, but when is all said and done, they made up rather quickly.
But one thing was for sure; she saw both sides of this coin, and she was intrigued by it.
Besides, seeing Childe being so energetic and silly with Teucer was pleasing to her. It warmed the traveler’s cold and seemingly hopeless heart.
Ah! She stopped at a vantage point overlooking the busy harbour of Liyue. Peering over a thin wooden fence, resting her elbow and head onto the rail.
“Perhaps he’s like a vigilante: he doesn’t seem to like the Fatui’s ideas, but he still is apart of them.”
Lumine was thinking hard, trying to place the right piece in this puzzle.
"It seems like he calls his shots for good results and benefits of his family." She mumbled to herself quietly. She remained puzzled, leaning on the fence, trying to recall what she knew about the Harbinger.
When he wasn't a merciless warrior, Childe was an energetic, and arrogant person: it was these traits that ultimately won over her trust.
However, it was difficult to think about him positively after he tried -and nearly succeeded- to kill her.
But it was not impossible.
Meanwhile, Paimon wasn’t going to just stand there and let the traveler think on an empty stomach.
“UGH,” she groaned, floating right in front of Lumine to obscure her view. “Can we please get something to eat?”
“Okay,” She responded, pulling out a chicken-mushroom skewer.
But like a picky toddler, she pushed the skewer away.
“Do you think I’m gonna eat this garbage again!??” She said furiously, followed up by a small growl from her stomach. “We’ve eaten the same thing for five days straight! Don’t we have like 800 000+ Mora that we can spend?”
At this point, Lumine was too tired to deal with such a small event like this. Pulling a pouch from her bag, she poured some into her hand, and gave it to her hungry fairy-guide.
“Knock yourself out,” She huffed, facing Liyue’s harbour once again. A ship was docking at one of the city’s ports, full of goods and food to trade and sell: which was what stole the traveller’s attention at the moment. It would take a couple of tugs on Lumine’s dress for her to bat an eye at Paimon.
Lumine sighed,
“Not enough?” She asked, looking to snatch the pouch from the guide’s tiny hands.
“Why don’t you come with Paimon?!?! What if someone tries to steal me?!?”
“You’ll be fine..” Lumine answered, “The Millieth will save you anyways.”
“Come on!!” She wailed, tugging Lumine’s arm this time. “Stop thinking about who you want to marry and get me something to eat!!”
The traveler's eyes twitched.
It was this comment that nearly made Lumine explode. Why? It was clear as day that Lumine was quite fond of the people here. Plus, she had an embarrassing habit of staring at people she liked a lot. Anyone observant could see the signs from a mile away. Unfortunately for her, she was just too tired to be anrgy.
“Okay, okay,” she said sluggishly, stretching her arms and letting out a small yawn. “Where do you want to go?”
“I wanna try the Tigerfish from that Chen guy, people say it’s one of the best foods in Liyue!”
So off they went to find Chen, the street food vendor, which was surprisingly easier than Lumine thought.
After a ten minute wait, they arrived at the front of the line, where they were greeted by Chen’s big wide smile. This could’ve been the time where Lumie could treat herself to a little snack; but, she wasn’t hungry, and opted to stay silent.
For now..
“We’ll take four Grilled Tigerfish, please!” She ordered happily. After all, she wasn’t the one to worry about a single expense.
“Alright!” Chen said joyfully. “That’ll be 1520 Mora, please.”
Reaching into the pouch, she pulled out enough to cover the bill, along with a 150 mora tip.
“Say, Traveller,” He looked at the unenergetic Lumine, confused. “Seem a bit down today. Finding your fame in Teyvat to be overwhelming?”
She just laughed it off, taking the grilled skewers from Chen, and passing it to Paimon.
“Well, not really,” she lied.
Because everyone would want the “Hero of Mondstadt” to help them out.
“Just another busy day, full of commissions from all over the place.”
With the transaction now complete, Lumine began to walk towards the Adventurer's Guild to collect her rewards from all those commissions. But a call from a distance pulled her right back to Chen's food kiosk.
“Here,” he smiled, giving her an extra fresh-skewer.
“But shouldn’t I-”
“It’s on the house for today: I insist,” He said kindly. “Seems like you work hard to keep our city in good shape. Take it as a token of appreciation. “
Although it was a kind gesture, Lumine was skeptical of having it: she felt a bit guilty for practically stealing it.
But, if Paimon sees a good deal, she acts quickly.
“Thanks Chen! See you later!!!” She cheered, grabbing the Grilled skewer for herself.
“Anytime,” He replied. “Safe travels!”
“You too..!” Lumine said awkwardly, dragging herself away from Chen's kiosk.
Though she felt guilty at first, she felt pretty good after that kind gesture from Chen. It almost put a smile on the Traveller’s face.
Almost…
While Lumine was traversing through the busy, and colourful streets of Liyue, Paimon -who was starving for the last three hours- inhaled those fish like a vacuum.
Lumine was totally fine with eating her 10th chicken-mushroom skewer today. After all, she liked the plain dish when cooked right: but like Paimon, she too wanted a different taste.
And she, too, wanted to try Liyue’s Grilled Tigerfish.
With a sudden stop next to the Jade-betting kiosk, Lumine gave in, and sighed.
“Got any.. left..?” She asked hopelessly, knowing full-well that there’s probably none left for her anyway.
“Yeah!” The fairy said, holding two skewers of the grilled fish in her hands. “I knew you wanted to try these! They are reeaaally good!!”
One bite, and Lumine loved it. She gulped them down faster than the wind itself! This was a taste that brightened her day: one that made the girl lick the stick to get some more flavour.
Together, they walked around the busy plaza, arriving at the Adventurer's Guild commission board. Both were a bit curious if there were any newer commissions up-for-grabs.
But their luck ran out, and there were none to be seen. Both a shame, but strangely, a relief for Lumine.
I must’ve finished a lot of them. Should get me a decent reward, and maybe a break-
“Hello, traveler,” An all-familiar voice said, drawing the two’s attention. Of course, Kathyrine, the receptionist of Liyue’s Adventurer's Guild branch, was talking to them.
“I assume you’re here for your rewards for today?”
“Yeah..” She admitted.
“Today you completed 8 commissions in Liyue, correct?”
Just as she asked, Lumine slipped eight papers, all signed by each citizen she’d completed a task for.
“Well, it seems that you’ve come prepared,” Kathyrine chuckled. “Here’s your reward.”
The pouch of Mora seemed quite heavy, which Lumine knew would be 60 000 Mora (since each commission would be worth about 7 500 Mora, depending on what an Adventurer would do). It would be enough to buy her a place to stay for a couple of nights.
“Thanks,” Lumine said, gently shaking the pouch of Mora in her hand.
“Actually,” the receptionist continued, “Someone has been causing a lot of trouble near the Golden house. A couple of our adventurers have gone there and came back severely wounded, with one still in hospitality as we speak.”
“Oh,” was all that came out of Lumine’s mouth. She definetely wasn’t expecting a commission there.
“Sorry, where was it again?” Lumine asked.
“I believe this person would be in or around the Golden House.”
“Okay,”
That certainly rang a bell in the traveler's mind.
“As one of our more… experienced members, would you like to take a look and see what’s happening?”
Of course, Lumine wasn’t the kind to back down. It was this trait of hers that helped her save Mondstadt.
“Will do,” She responded.
And off she went to investigate the Golden House.
* * * * *
“You sure you don't want to come in too?”
“I think it’s better for Paimon to sit this one out.”
Once they reached the enterncenof Teyvat's Mora stash, Paimon decided to disappear into her own little world, leaving Lumine alone once again. But she wouldn’t be alone for long, because the feelings of fatigue, and nausea were slowly creeping towards the traveler. Once she cracked the door open enough for her to slide through, she tip-toed her way inside, trying her best to not reveal her presence. But for today, luck was definetely not on her side.
Out of nowhere, an electro-blade flies right next to her neck, begging to pierce Lumine’s skin. But she did not flinch a single bit. She just looked dead-pan into the eyes of the culprit:
Childe.
“I see you’ve come back for a rematch, eh?” He said slyly, letting his blade de-materialize from his hand.
“And you are here to cause some more trouble?” She countered, slowly walking towards the Harbinger: a deep, serious look at Tartaglia's lifeless eyes.
“I guess you can say that,” He admitted, now twiddling with his water blades. “Some have told me you're a workaholic now. No?”
“What makes you say that?” Lumine questioned, sword in hand.
“I’m a Fatui!” He laughed, gesturing towards the ceiling. “I have eyes and ears everywhere.”
At this moment, something weird was happening to Lumine. She felt nauseous, and tired all of a sudden: that burst of energy from having the Tigerfish was now depleted. She felt like her usual-self, or at least the one she presents to most people that meet her.
But worse.
She felt vomit from her throat, and judging on how relatively lumpy the texture was, it probably was those Chicken-mushroom-skewers she’d eaten for the last ten days.
Despite all of it, she still stood tall in front of the Harbinger, not letting herself give in just yet.
“So,” Tartaglia teased, wielding his signature bow. “Are we just going to stand here and look pretty, or are we going to fight?”
She wanted to say yes: she wanted to beat him convincingly: she wanted to assert her dominance.
But her body held her back.
And when the battle began, she dropped her sword right next to her feet, unable to hold it properly anymore.
“Ah, guess you don’t need a sword to beat me?” He said, his weapon hanging at his side. “I like your confidence, Ojou-chan.”
The name rolled off his tongue in a way that made Lumine flustered.
Still, with little energy left in her, she used Anemo energy to retrieve her weapon, and fought fiercely.
Punch for punch.
Block for block.
Blade for blade.
With his bow, Childe released a horde of arrows right at Lumine, but she effortlessly danced past all of them. Imidietaly, she changed a ball of wind to fire, but a slick move from the Harbinger made Lumine look silly.
It was mezmarizing watching the two go at it.
After a very intense skirmish, the two broke apart from each other, taking a small moment to breathe.
For Childe, he regained his strength to fight once again.
But Lumine had a trick up her sleeve.
And all-or-nothing, last-resort move, she had never tried before.
With the last game of energy left in her, she rushed towards the Harbinger, zooming past everything Childe threw at her.
And when the time was right, she tackled him to the ground, catching him off-guard
Luck seemed to finally be in her favour.
But not for long.
* * * * *
"Uh, boss..?" A mysterious, light voice said, panting heavily.
"What..?" Another voice -a little deeper in tone- replied.
"The Millieth are on the scene as we speak, I just got out of there without being seen."
The deeper voice laughed hysterically.
"Millieth? You pathetic coward. I guess I'll have to find it myself-"
"N-NO WAIT!" The light voice pleaded, "there's no need: I found a pattern on the floor, that may interest you."
The darker voice stood tall, looking down to his inferior.
"And what might that be..?" The darker voice snapped, holding the other by their collar.
"There's-There's a pool on the floor."
The boss dropped his co-worker from his grasp, leaning back in his throne.
"What was it…" He said, aggravated.
A pause came from the co-worker, leaving the boss on the edge of his seat.
"WHAT WAS IT!?!" He screamed furiously.
"B-b-blood and v-vomit, and some water.. sir.." The lighter voice whispered.
The boss smirked, twiddling a small dagger in one hand.
"Blood you say?" He asked curiously, leaning close to hear the other's response.
"Y-yes M'lord!!"
"... Good…"
Idk when I'll write pt.2, but thanks for reading anyways.
