ā€œ(Inspired By Loser, Baby from Hazbin Hotel, sorry not sorry.)
Diego has lost his job, his girlfriend and his home when he stumbles across his brother in a sketchy bar. Klaus is not happy to see him, given last time they saw each other Diego was putting him in handcuffs, but when Diego intervenes to prevent his brother from being spiked the two have a heart to heart about just how messed up life can be when you're a washed up ex-superhero.ā€
Did I take my current hyperfixation in Hazbin Hotel and combine it with my one true love The Umbrella Academy? Maybe so. What can I say, Klaus and Diego just seem Loser, Baby coded to me.

Chapter 4/part 5: It's 2012 and Diego is trying to put the Academy behind him, training to be a police officer as a way to help others, and help himself move on. Until a familiar face shows up in the cells.
Diego Hargreeves might seem rough around the edges, but he learnt his bedside manner from the best.
Times Diego took care of his sibling, one mug at a time.

ao3 is not instagram, and itā€™s not embarrassing to comment on a story thatā€™s old. we understand that you just happened to come across it now; writing is magical in that you often come across the right story at just the time you need to read it.
also, authors will literally cry over their keyboard if you comment on the stuff they write.

reginald lied to klaus about his death in 3x07. in 3x06, when klaus comes to visit him, itā€™s a day; itā€™s still a day when reginald electrocutes him to death:
Tumblr media
itā€™s night, when allison comes to the academy with harlanā€™s body in the trunk (and thereā€™s also klausā€™ body somewhere in the academy):
Tumblr media
and it seems only the NEXT DAY reginald takes klaus out for training. in 3x07, reginald tells klaus he remained dead for 22 minutes. so, klaus probably thinks itā€™s still the day when he told reginald about the white buffalo suite; the last thing he remembers is being electrocuted. reginald also adds that klaus was totally vulnerable, and he couldā€™ve taken any of his organs. klaus is shocked, because why good olā€™ reggie would do that, right?
the training starts at 1:15 p.m., reginald writes it down. logically, klausā€™ 22-minute-long death should be listed as 001, but:
Tumblr media
itā€™s 004. 22 minutes - lower body (something something), and LACERATION? before that, 003 - failure (?).Ā 
between klausā€™ FIRST electrocution and the bus-ball training, reginald had killed him not one, but four (FOUR!) times. and, most likely he did indeed try to cut him/cut out his organs (?) to check on how/if his dead body can heal itself. spoiler alert: klaus CAN HEAL HIMSELF even when heā€™s dead. later, we can see it in 3x09 when he comes back to life when the wound on his stomach has ALREADY healed. (so no one could steal his falling out guts, right? reginald knew. old bitch fucking knew).Ā 
so, i think reginald kept electrocuting klaus all night between 3x06-3x07 (with the method reginald chose, it could probably mess up klausā€™ memories? he literally doesnā€™t remember shit except for being electrocuted one last time?) until he made sure that: a) klaus comes back fairly quick now (attempt 003 says 26 minutes, not bad, not bad!) and b) his body heals from any injuries so haha getting crashed with a car is not a big deal.Ā  Ā

sometimes i think about five choosing to sing "i've had the time of my life" and choosing to make it a duet with klaus and pulling their other brothers up to sing with them too, and he's never been one to say what he feels, but he's always been one to show it ("you're a good brother. okay, you say something nice about me now" "let's go find your stupid birth mother.") and of all the songs to sing at the end of the world, he chooses to say that he's had the time of his life. he chooses a duet so he won't be alone. he gives himself permission to be sentimental for once, about as overtly as he can be, and his brothers join him. he's saved the world for them. twice. and he may have said fuck it to saving the world this time, but he's not gonna go out without saying "i owe it all to you"

this will never not hurt
Tumblr media
you know he's gone his whole life believing he's the weakest link, a waste of space, a liability. the only one weaker than him all those years was viktor, who wasn't even considered one of them. of the members of the umbrella academy, klaus was always the one with the useless powers. as adults they continued to treat him like this. never taking him seriously, acting like he was always in the way. and then when they found out viktor had powers, more powerful than any of them, that feeling only increased. now he really is the least powerful, the most useless.
until season 3. while everyone else is dealing with the sparrows and the kugelblitz, he's spending time with this new version of his father, who actually seems to care about him, not only more than the man who raised him but than his siblings. finally this version of his dad sees him as more than just a number and wants to help him perfect his abilities. he helps klaus see how powerful he can be, what he's truly capable of. suddenly klaus doesn't feel useless. suddenly he doesn't feel like a waste of space. he feels like he has a purpose, like he's needed.
and then he's betrayed. all of those old feelings are shoved right back at him. all this time he was being used. and when the time came, he wasn't needed anymore. he served one purpose to reginald, which was to get the others to trust him again. now that that's done, klaus isn't needed. all that time spent on his powers was pointless. once again, he's the weakest link. once again, he's a liability.
you can see the pain in his eyes, hearing his father say those words. the heartbreak. the betrayal. all that time spent overcoming his fears, perfecting his abilities, gaining closure from his childhood and relationship with his dad. only to be left for dead in the end, because he's more trouble than he's worth.

Season 3, Episode 5 Missing Scene.
Somewhere between the family meeting, and cleaning the white buffalo suite, Klaus and Diego run into each other in the bathroom. The two brothers get a moment to process Klaus's death/resurrection.
Basically, these two needed to hug it out, and so here you go.
