I know it’s been a while since my last one and I apologize for anyone who looks for these regularly

Anyways

Kaeya took a while to get used to keeping his wings tucked away all the time when he first came to Mondstadt, and used to spend a while fidgeting and usually wouldn’t tell anyone why

This got a lot worse when he lost access to his wings, but since he couldn’t tell anyone, it was a silent struggle that he eventually got used to

Diluc once discovered that sometimes he’d relax with a bit of a light massage to his back, and occasionally would help when he seemed particularly bad, back when they were still close

When Kaeya became able to use his wings again, that uncomfortableness was noticeable again, and he started making efforts to make sure he didn’t lose them again while continuing to keep his secret

And so now every now and then you might be able to catch sight of a fidgety knight rubbing at his back while he’s basically alone

Ok so

Hawthorns aren’t actually something canon in Genshin yet

So running on the idea that these flowers are something rare/something from Khaenri’ah

He doesn’t notice that there’s anything until he catches whiff of the scent of the flower, and he just stops in place, before realizing exactly what he had found

These flowers are like a little treasure trove to find, so he’s absolutely in love with the fact that he found some, and the spot becomes a bit of a favorite, where he goes to relax and reminisce and have a bit of fun where no one will see

He’d be super pissed if anyone got rid of it too, but he couldn’t explain that to anyone else, because who would understand his fascination with a bush that barely anyone knew?

It’s a bush

Most people aren’t gonna care

I’ve had this one for a while I just hadn’t gotten around to posting it

@aurascade is of course already in the loop because I discuss all of these with them first but

So

Fairy rings, right?

The circles of mushrooms?

The most common reason they supposedly exist is because of fairy dancing

They’re said to be a thing of doom and that you should never enter a fairy ring because n o that’s b a d you could get s t u c k there for m u c h longer than you think possible

This brings in this idea

Sometime when kaeya and Diluc were younger and in a great old mood, Kaeya took Diluc’s hands and started dancing with him, because they’re young and tiny and dancing is fun

A fairy ring forms as they dance and to Crepus and everyone else, they’ve been missing for a lot longer than they’ve been dancing

And when they stop, neither of them understand what happened for a good little while

Until suddenly it clicks in Kaeyas head

And he realizes how absolutely lucky he was that he didn’t take Diluc for much longer

Kaeya doesn’t dance carelessly anymore, and definitely not with other people unless he has to for an event

It would be way too easy to accidentally kill someone that way

I actually had this brain moment a while ago but we don’t mention that

This is a situation I’m sure has happened tho

Kaeya had an instance when he became the captain that he got severely poisoned with iron because of some blacksmith not listening to him when he said it was really bad for him

They essentially coated the iron in paint so it wasn’t noticeable and Kaeya didn’t realize why he was so sick until it was nearly too late

Needless to say, said blacksmith got a fucking scolding when they learned how it nearly killed him

@mocha-bunbun @gensimp-impact @artemislosthunter and of course @aurascade already knew tm

Back to iron problems tm

Since all canon swords are made of iron, Kaeya had to go get himself a specially made sword with starsilver

Many problems with this:

Starsilver is rare at the moment because dragonspine is a lil problematic with a broken bridge

Even if the bridge wasn’t broken, Kaeya can’t wield a tool to mine starsilver

Most people aren’t gonna go to dragonspine for ya just to make a sword

The solution?

Diluc

Man was capable of wielding a sword

Man was capable of mining starsilver

Man had a pyro vision and would be able to keep them warm (extra benefit)

Kaeya just convinced him to go to dragonspine with him back before the incident and they got the starsilver and everything

And had a fun snowball fight

Fae kaeya has wings of course

But you rarely get to see them because most of the time he is pretending to be a normal person

And in fact for a while he lost access to his wings

When he was dropped in Mondstadt he was told not to show em and he didn’t, and as he embedded himself in Mond and rejected his fae nature, he lost his ability to bring them back out

He didn’t realize this for a while too, but he got over the loss pretty quickly

When everything came clean that fateful night, he regained his wings in full, along with the vision he rightfully earned

He still doesn’t show them off much though, because he doesn’t need everyone knowing

And besides, he still needs to learn how to fly

Fae Kaeya and iron part 2

Bc I didn’t think to actually bother mentioning the sword problem and also noodles over here having fun with the brothers’ dislike of each other

Kaeya misses him
