This took me way too long to make... three years to be exact, starting with an AU I never finished, and then rewrote. And rewrote. And rewrote.
Anyway I finished him now! So, what if, instead of Cyno being released back into Cyrus' care after the Akademiya tried to experiment on him, he was given to Dottore as a test subject and research material for the False God experiments? How fascinating, but the boy was stuck in a feverish state and the dead god was so angry that he couldn't glean much.
He needed to find out more about how a dead god was successfully bound to a human vessel, Dottore sealed Hermanubis' volatile spirit away in order to speak to the boy on his operating table. In gratitude, Cyno dedicated his life to serving his Lord Harbinger and further his goals no matter the cost.
And so was made the White Wolf of Snezhnaya. Agent Arctos, the Doctor's trusted second in command and more than willing attack dog.

I traced over his model as a base and it still took me 3 hours gahhh
I. have no idea what I'm going to do when I draw him again but that's a problem for future meee :D
Loredump of what I have so far yippity yay
He was takin Crepus's Delusion btw
I. think the fight was six years ago I have no idea apparently it's been five years since Signora's death but this is set immediately after so it's fine
also yes Crepus and Dottore were dating and Crepus was in the Fatui
Also under the cut Paladino's opinions on the other Harbingers:
Arlecchino - He is closest with her out of all the other Harbingers, and despite not being a part of the House of the Hearth or calling her Father, he is treated with the same love and care she would give any of her children. He tends to supervise missions with the House of the Hearth when Arlecchino is busy, as well.
Dottore - The Harbinger he is the second-closest to, but also the one he harbors the most resentment towards. He is deeply conflicted with Dottore's very existence, as he's a stark reminder of the loss of his father and the fact he failed at his original mission. He loved his father, and Dottore is the only person Paladino can still talk to who did. But he was supposed to kill him. And he failed.
Signora - He had no real opinion on her before her death, she was simply another Harbinger to him. However, after her death he was slightly happy due to getting her seat, and has never forgiven himself for it. He wears his small eye covering as a tribute to her and Kaeya, did he forget his brother?, and if anyone asks, she is their dear Signora.
Pantalone - He is soft and polite, and reminds Paladino the most of how his father used to act. Though, he isn't his father. He knows that. And for that reason, he tends to avoid him if possible. His closeness with Dottore doesn't help Paladino's internal conflict, either.
Capitano - He respects Capitano a lot as the first of the Fatui Harbingers, attempting to make him proud at any chance he gets. He feels the most like a child trying to get his father's attention around him, though he hasn't been someone like that in a long time.
Sandrone - He doesn't avoid Sandrone, though he won't purposefully start a conversation with her either. To be fair, he doesn't like purposefully starting conversations with anyone, and he doesn't mind Sandrone. Though a lot of the others seem to hate her, he relates to her hotheadedness and sees her as someone dependable.
Columbina - He almost never sees Columbina, but anytime he does is a breath of fresh air. She's much more fun than the other Harbingers, and she...almost reminds him of his childhood self sometimes. She's...nice. He likes spending time with Columbina.
(realized I forgot Scaramouche wasn't erased yet here aaaaa)
Scaramouche - He talks to Scaramouche occasionally, though they never get past small talk. He seems distrusting of most people, which Paladino understands. Though...he does have one question. Why did he leave in Inazuma? Why would he leave Signora to die?
Pulcinella - He doesn't have much of an opinion on Pulcinella, though he harbors a small grudge for not even being considered for Project Stuzha, whatever it is. He seems like a dependable mayor, though.
Tartaglia - He...doesn't like Tartaglia. Too unpredictable. Too untrustworthy. He never knows who he is, and he doesn't like that.
Anyway
Yes much angst
Someone has probably already made better Fatui Diluc AUs lol, but I'm really enjoying writing this and may make an animatic for it soon :3 I also definitely wanna write voice lines for him
also it's 4 AM if I misspelled anything I'm sorry I'm. going to bed now 😭
