#kaeya's father

[pizzapasta23045]

Crepus *a couple of days after he found Kaeya, showing him around*: And this is the church, do you want go inside?

Kaeya:Umm... Sure... I suppose...

Kaeya:*hesitantly takes a step forward very very slowly, then visibly calms down when his foot touches the floor *

Diluc: Don't be scared. You can go in.

Kaeya: *takes a few steps in, looks up at the ceiling and smiles*

Crepus: I know, this place is really mesmerizing, isn't it?

Kaeya *in his head*: Wow! I did not spontaneously combust! Fascinating!

Kaeya: Perhaps my father left in mondstadt so that I can live a peaceful and happy life

Traveller: "Peaceful"? And he left you with Diluc...?

Kaeya: ....so that I can live a happy life

Traveller, remembering Kaeya and Diluc's Tragic Backstory: "Happy"?

Kaeya:

Kaeya: my father left me in mondstadt so that I can live a life

HONESTLY

If Kaeya's father knew what he was leaving Kaeya in the middle of. I imagine him checking up on Kaeya throughout his life.

At first, He probably saw this son and father and was like, "Oh, this looks good for my son. He'll have a parental figure and a friend."

Then he comes a little later. "Oh, it looks like they are getting along well! Seems Kaeya will have a sibling!"

Then later "Oh... Oh no. They are troublemakers."

Then as they become teens. Stealings Varka's horse. "Mistakes have... been made."

I'm seeing a lot of "Kaeya doesn't care for Khaenri'ah" for a while now in various socmed but like... this is the same dude that:

1. kept a portion of his father's notes about his clan when it was supposed to be burned

2. tested out the waters with Venti/Barbatos by putting a threat/warning in a letter

3. technically tried to run away from Dawn Winery to be able to go to Sumeru to learn more about Khaenri'ah when he was a kid

4. has his play performance imply that he is annoyed/mad about his birth father's actions BUT would like to keep both enemy and home nations safe and at peace

5. Avoids elaborating on Khaenri'ah but unafraid to say that that is his ancestry (in fact, he uses it to his benefit)

6. chose to keep using "Alberich" as a surname (he had his chances to change it, and no one could call him out, and yet he kept it? Again, what for?)

7. is torn with the idea of duty to his home nation and the love that Mond gave to him (character stories)

tbh I think Kaeya still cares for Khaenri'ah (whether it is because of his father's orders, or his own heart yearning for what could have been, or that he simply and genuinely loves his heritage). We still have Mona's voiceline saying that he has to make a choice someday, so clearly something is eating up his mind.

What I do theorize Kaeya is trying to do is to look for a different solution where he doesn't have to choose between Khaenri'ah and Mondstadt. That's what his Veluriyam Mirage vision is for- a mixture of the star of Khaenri'ah and the vision case of Mondstadt. In a realm where your dreams could be a reality, he decided to give himself both.

And honestly, could he possibly have both someday? Or does he need to realize that he can only have one?

#i like to post this idea regularly coz some of yall be forgetting that this man actually cares too much #kaeya #kaeya alberich #him avoiding Khaenri'ah talks could be taken as him not liking Khaenri'ah... #but then why was he doing literally everything else? #if he truly doesnt want anything to do with khaenriah #why keep his fathers notes? why keep using Alberich as a surname? why put a target on his back? #why cant he be hannah montana and have the best of both worlds???

I’m a sane person (mostly) but will go absolutely FERAL over guys with long hair. (But like, in this way)

[crows-of-buckets]

I feel like the genshin fandom doesn't talk about the fact that crepus was actually fucking dissolving when he died enough. Like.

Like???? His arms already dissolved here, while his leg is actively dissolving. Like. I didn't even notice it my first few reads I only discovered it because I was drawing crepus dying for a comic. Do you know how fucked up that is???? To watch your father not only die, but to dissolve? Did they have a body to bury? Or did diluc and kaeya watch their father become ashes in his final moments. The sheer pain that he must have been in. I know some people think crepus was a bit selfish for telling diluc to kill him but in his defense I think I would also be begging for death if my arm was actively ripping itself apart and turning to dust

#crepus #diluc #kaeya #ragbros #crepus ragnvindr #genshin impact #like ive never seen anyone talk about it??? #i guess its because its hard to see and not everyone has read the webcomic #but still #makes diluc using the delusion even more batshit #he watched his father disintegrate from that thing then put it on his own hand like damn 💀

when they get jealous and needy

how the genshin men show their jealousy over you

character(s): Cyno, Xiao, Kaeya

pairings(s): fem!reader x Cyno, Xiao, Kaeya (separately)

contents: uncertainty of feelings, smut, found family, angst, comfort

not proofread! im swamped with uni work so i might post less till next week, sorry <3

─────────────────── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ──────────────────

Cyno

he's absolutely chill most of the time, but there are some times he just gets jealous and insecure

you bet he's going to mark his territory: whether it is by putting his hand around your waist, pulling you close, whispering something in your ear while looking the other person dead in the eyes, his golden irises sending a silent warning

«And who's this, angel?» he asks, as he gets to your side

you better believe he's gonna get extra needy/rough when you two get in bed later

as he's balls deep in your pussy, he groans «you're mine, aren't you, angel?»

you struggle to answer. not because you don't know what to answer, but because you can't think properly, as he's relentlessly pounding into you, making you lose any semblance of rational thought

he stops, still inside of you.

«answer.» he commands now, making you squirm and whine for more.

«C-cyno..» you plead, incapable of uttering any other word than his name.

«yes?» his pupils dark and wide, much like the ones of a predator

«i am Cyno. that guy was just flirting with me because he can't stand you. he wants to make you angry because the matra once apprehended him due to his illegal schemes, and so he wants to take it out on you..» you utter those words, remembering the case that had shaken your Darshan from the inside out, before Cyno was even the general Mahamatra

as you finish speaking, he starts to pound into you again, making you scream his name, finally getting the release you were aching for

──────────────────────────────

Xiao

poor thing is still new to this having feelings for someone, so when he gets angry when another guy talks with you in a more friendly way, he doesn't know what to do with his feelings

so he goes to Zhongli, asking for advice (a/n yes, i believe in Zhongli as Xiao's found family, idc)

«Rex L-» «Just Zhongli.»

he looks down, biting his lip at the correction. it doesn't feel fair to him to call Rex Lapis as simply Zhongli, but he carries on, explaining his problem

«What you are experiencing is what mortals call "jealousy". While it is normal to have such a feeling when someone you don't like might be talking to her in a little too friendly manner, you must learn not to get overwhelmed by this feeling, as it only brings people apart and destroys relationships.»

he thinks long and hard about what Zhongli told him, and as you return to Wangshu Inn, you find him on the rooftop, deep in thought.

«I'm back, Xiao.» you say, catching his attention.

you are met by a dry reply, that makes you wonder what might be up with him

after a bit, he decides to confess, and you look at him, endearment in your eyes

«aw, love. you have no need to be jealous. i'm sorry you felt this way. whether adeptus or human, jealousy is a terrible feeling that no one wants to experience. but i can assure you that the only one i love is you, and no one else.»

he's got tears in his eyes

«are you sure?» you nod. «but..my karmic debt..» he averts his eyes, turning his back to you

you hug him from behind, resting your head on his shoulder

«my Vision protects me.»

he makes you promise to run away if he ever loses control over himself, and you reluctantly agree, even though you know that if that ever happened, you would fight for him until the bitter end.

──────────────────────────────

Kaeya

oh boi, you're in for a ride

he's literally the smoothest talker ever, he doesn't even need to get jealous

he's more of a showoff really, basically showing off his wonderful girlfriend

so it's more him making other people jealous, whether men or women, because, let's be honest, it's not like women are not jealous of you

«all alone here, kitten?» he comes up at you at Angel's Share, while Diluc rolls his eyes at his cheesiness

you flirt right back, twirling a strand of loose hair in your fingers, catching his attention

your hair and neck are his weak points, so you know exactly what you're doing

his eyes are fixated on you, as you let go of your hair, and go back to your drink, ignoring him

he comes up to you, whispering something in your ear

«let's put on a show» are the words that come to your ears, and you smile wickedly

you turn your head towards him, staring at his lips intensively

he's too close for comfort, and you can feel his cold breath on your skin, shivers appearing in response

as you're about to kiss, your lips inches from each other, a suave melody starts playing

you see one of the most renowned bard of Mondstadt, Venti, playing his lyre for the tavern

you get all excited, and stand up, your dress flitting around your figure

Kaeya gives you a puzzled look, but it soon transforms into an amused smile, as he joins you in dancing

you two dance together, the entire tavern mesmerized at the sight of you two

might also be because Kaeya was using his vision to create small snowflakes around both of you, those same snowflakes catching the light of the tavern, creating a reflective spectacle

you decide to tease him, grabbing him by the ring that holds his collar in place

he smiles smugly, as if to ask "what now?"

your faces get too close for comfort, both of you lost in the each other's eyes

suddenly a whiff of wind swirls around you, diffusing an irresistible aroma around you

who's gonna give in first? it's a battle of wits at this point

Kaeya does.

you don't even have the time to process it, that his lips are on yours, and his hands are on your waist, pulling you closer

that was one memorable night

what you didn't know is that your ex was standing in a corner of the tavern, a bewildered look in his eyes as he witnessed the whole scene

Kaeya is a fucking menace

I don't know what's funnier

The people of Mondstadt actually don't know who the Darknight Hero is despite Diluc's horrible disguise, except for Kaeya who is losing his mind because how!? But also thinking that yeah, that checks out why they all just readily accepted him despite him being an obvious plant.

Or

The people of Mondstadt actually know that Diluc is the Darknight Hero, but they've all agreed to just let their uncrowned king keep up his silly little vigilante fantasy and run around in his silly little disguise, because that's just good ol' sunshine child Diluc for you. None of them mention it out of respect.

#both of these are so funny to me #like Kaeya just screaming at people #“HE HAS BRIGHT RED HAIR!! AND WEILDS FIRE!!! AND HE HAS A WEIRD BIRD THEME GOING ON!!! WHO ELSE DOES THAT SOUND LIKE!?!?” #and some Mondstadt bloke just shrugs and #“Damn you think Master Diluc's a fan? Or that the Darknight Hero is a fan of Master Diluc!?” #but also on the other hand #two older ladies sitting in their little home at night and they see The Grand Darknight Hero jump across their balcony #“aww our little Diluc is having his fun again!” #“I remember when Crepus would bring the little one to his tavern and he'd chatter on about being a knight! #its good to see that his father's death didn't change him that much. Still the same darling child inside <3“ #and they just keep calling him the Darknight Hero because “its good for the development of the imagination to play along <3” #diluc #diluc ragnvindr #kaeya #kaeya alberich

[pizzapasta23045]

fr fr the people who say his situation should make it impossible for Kaeya to feel anything but hatred for Khaenri'ah, or that he 100% never feels sentimental about it bc his association with Khaenri'ah was only ever unwilling/forced - as if cutting the national symbol into his food when given the opportunity isn't something he chooses to do. Who's forcing that??

🕸💐

Also sewing a thousand stars in his outfit and specifical modifying his vision in the skin so that it has both Khaenri'ahn and Mondstadt elements. Like the symbolism is SO CLEAR but people are like, no clearly the adoptee who does a whole soliloquy about how the gods are cruel and inept for turning father against son clearly would hate his father because I do hate my father that I hate for entirely different situations I'm just gonna project onto kaeya.

[wyvernne]

i keep thinking about how much blame i see being put on diluc about attacking kaeya and it drives me absolutely nuts that he’s painted unequivocally as the bad guy. i absolutely don’t think that is the purpose of that story at all. it’s about two kids, agonized by guilt and grief and horribly misplacing those emotions. kaeya went to diluc knowing it wouldn’t end well. diluc had just killed his own father. i feel like it’s wild to expect any sort of normal reaction beyond blinding anger. the point is, this is not meant to be a “who is in the wrong” backstory. it’s about two young men who, faced with a series of terrible circumstances, lost their last remaining familial connection. and in the current story, we’re seeing the clumsy, stilted journey the two make towards reconciliation.

#also if anyone has grown up with brothers #my older ones are best friends and have absolutely gotten into terrible physical altercations as teens #18 & 17 y/os do not have developed brains please 😭 #they do stupid and impulsive things all the time #mischaracterization of these two runs absolutely rampant #even though i half jokingly beef with crepus it’s obvious both of them had strong affection for their father #suddenly losing your only parent is unimaginable #they!!! were!!!!!! just!!!!!!!!! kids!!!!!!!!!!! #especially on kaeya’s side #this is absolutely a ‘i didn’t deserve my adoptive family to begin with’ guilt

[kaeyachi]

Kaeya runs after Klee across the vast and open grasslands of Mondstadt. Their giggles are scattered by the winds, sounding much like a duet between wind chimes and piano keys.

Diluc stares in wonder from a distance.

He swears he could see his father chasing both him and Kaeya across the very same fields. He could hear their giggles- like a symphony, being scattered by the same winds. His father scoops down and reaches for the red and blue blurs. He manages to capture the both of them, eliciting loud laughter and protests.

Then Diluc blinks.

The illusion falls. It was Kaeya, not their father, who managed to capture the giggling little girl instead of two young boys, spinning her around as he hugged her tightly.

Diluc may have his father's hair.

His father's nose.

His father's mind.

He still isn't like his father at all. In his opinion, his similarities with the man are all superficial.

Diluc feels an ache in his chest as he continues to observe the duo dance together, as if they were in their own little world.

Diluc turns around and walks back home alone with one thought in mind.

Kaeya is like their father in the ways that mattered the most.

#oh its diluc angst this time #yes its a companion post ehe #diluc #diluc ragnvindr #kaeya #kaeya alberich #klee #inspired by the recent events because kaeya was being very parent in my opinion! #ALSO DONT TRUST DILUC #he is very much like his father too #beyond the so called superficial #diluc just cant see beyond the lens of kaeya looking like a parent #diluangst to partner up with the kaeyangst #did yall know that kaeya is giggly

[id in alt text]

quick design on how i think kaeyas bio father looks + rant:

ANYWAYS!!! i really despise it when people portray kaeyas biological father as this extremely abusive man, especially when they make crepus out to be this some sort of saint. we have to remember that kaeya and her father are REFUGEES - it is literally a core aspect of their story. their home country was completely destroyed, with most citizens either turning into horrific monsters or cursed with immortality. while we don't know much about kaeya's childhood pre mondstadt, it's safe to assume that it probably wasn't the best - however, i still don't think her father was abusive. from the very little that we do know about him, he seems extremely remorseful and perhaps even /regretful/ for what he had to do. he isn't an evil father - but simply one in an extremely difficult situation. would you rather abandon your child in order for them to have a better life or keep your child with you, even if it means that they'll suffer ? yes, kaeya was technically placed in mondstadt to be some sort of spy - but sometimes you have to make sacrifices for the greater good, no matter how much it may hurt.

mrow (>w☆) !

#kaliya kolours #genshin impact #kaeya #genshin fanart #fuck how do i tag this #this man doesnt even have an official name 😭 #father alberich #kaeyas father #papaya #yea. #anyways i bet all of yall would be more sympathetic towards him if kaeya was white tbhhh #but what do i know LOL

Ok but the entire Dawn winery staff jumping around informing each other that kaeya is here so all of them get a chance to see him was very sweet, like i knew the staff cared about him but it’s nice to get a confirmation and few childhood stories lol

#The DW staff throwing diluc off the stairs to get to see kaeya: MOVE #connor run all the way to get him the wine like buddy #Me running screaming and turning on the floor because i get to listen to Crepus and kaeya stories #I never asked for a perfect Crepus just a good dad Crepus and i GOT IT! #the basterd i actually believed diluc when he said he didn’t like wine for its taste #but apparently his pride was so hurt by his father punishment he just made wine his mortal enemy #Which seeing the fact that it was out of his own actions it checks out #Wow master diluc #Any way i would die for addy #Addy basically said: if they were getting into trouble 10/9 of times it’s somehow Diluc’s doing and she is right #kaeya being the favorite child is making my day ifdvnk #Kaeya #diluc #im not doing the rest i don’t have the energy #Feel free to spoil #genshin impact #Crepus
