KAEBEDO OR BUST!!!! HAPPY ALBEDO DAY

You got it boss 🫡

"Cursed"

Rating: T Ship: Kaebedo Tags: Canon Compliant, Angst, Hurt/Comfort

The scene plagued his unconscious mind like a disease. A parasite eating him alive from the inside out. Sucking every last breath from his lungs.

Chaos, destruction, fear.

The town crumbling beneath claws he knew were undeniably his own despite the contrast to his mortal form.

Screams of agony and horror bitterly mixed with the scent of woodsmoke and burning flesh. Ashen, bloodied cobblestones. Bodies in the fountain, limp, lifeless, even in their last desperate act of survival. Staining the clear waters sanguine. A sinful, forbidden wine borne from the sentient vials that inhabited the shelves of this city. Each one cruelly plucked from their place and tossed aside without a care. Humanity was not present in blind bloodlust.

Blood boiled and coursed through his veins. His hollow chest throbbed as the poison pumped through each chamber of his heart. It blurred his vision and muddied his thoughts through searing pain. It fueled his lashing and rampaging through the town that had given him a home.

Given him a family.

How could it topple so quickly? After all he’d done to build it up. To fortify it, preserve it, like something precious. Protected even from dust by a glass case. 

But now the glass was shattered, and by his own hands. His own obsidian claws that scraped and clacked.

A shuddering breath forced its way out of the prison that was his rib cage, clenched tight and suffocating. Sweat clung to his skin in beads threatening to roll at the slightest movement. His fingers gripped tight around the closest object, knuckles white in their desperation.

Soft lips pressed to his forehead as his eyes opened with a strangled gasp.

His eyes found his fist tangled in the cotton cloth of the sleep shirt the second body in the bed was wearing. Ribs heaved under the crushing weight of the dream, yet the fingers weaving through his hair were lighter than crystalfly wings and more tender than anything his senses have experienced.

The face across from his own was gentle, pleading in its silent requests to make the pain go away. To banish the fear with a singular, soft gaze from speckled lavender and bell flower blue. Albedo could not dare place the weight onto someone else’s shoulders.

This inevitably was his cross to bear. He was cursed to take the place of Atlas, carrying the weight of Mondstadt’s destruction within his heavy, inhuman heart. 

He prayed the chalk beneath his artificial flesh did not crumble underneath the mass of such a burden.

To share it would be to give hope to a cause that could never dream of a happy end.

All roads led to death, be it the city’s or his own.

To give the Cavalry Captain a warning would be giving him time to hope and time to scheme and time to believe it could not end in such a way. That time would only make it all the more difficult for the man to plunge a sword through the heart of the beast he once knew as his lover when the time came.

Calloused fingers grazed his jaw, pulling him from his thoughts.

Lips met his, chaste, dandelion soft. Gone as quickly as a summer breeze.

The kiss left his mind clouded. The memory of the dream slowly melting into a fog. Acid at the back of his tongue could not compare to the sweet taste left on his lips. Soft petals and mountain air underneath a silver moon. 

Such raw humanity rested within the arms that embraced him. The beating heart in the opposing chest cavity was nearly enough to make him forget Irminsul ran through his veins in gushing gold.

Warmth bloomed in the palm of his hand as hot breaths prickled his skin. The sensitive recesses of his throat pooled the air and held it close until it cooled. Fingers trailed up his spine and followed the shallow ravine between each rib. The press of a palm against the small of his back guided him closer to the safety of the Captain’s chest.

Come morning, there would be no explanation. No apologies, nor questions. They will both carry on about their duties as was expected of a Captain of the Ordo. 

As Captains, they were bound by their duty to the people of Mondstadt. 

And Albedo was not bound to the primal sensations of fear and anxiety for the future. 

Or so he told himself come dawn’s light.

contents. features xiao, albedo, scaramouche & kazuha. established relationships. gender neutral reader. modern au. lots of fluff ! ! kinda crack in scara’s part lol tw. implied insomnia in xiao’s part ♡ word count. 594

notes. hi there, welcome back! thank you for all of the likes on my previous ‘enchanted’ piece, i appreciate it <3 here’s a little drabble with some of my favorite genshin short kings ! ! all of them are 5’3” except xiao WHO IS AN INCH SHORTER :sobs: how could hoyoverse do that to my baby >_< it’s okay xiao will always be taller in my heart 😍

xiao always answers your calls. no matter what time of day it is or what he’s in the middle of doing, he will always pick up the phone.

whenever you facetime him at two in the morning because you can’t sleep, the first thing he says when he accepts the call is, “do you want me to come over?”

before long you’re huddled up in bed with your head against your boyfriend's chest, his tattooed arms snug around your waist. “is this better?” xiao jokes, pulling the blankets tighter around your bare shoulders.

“much better,” you say, burying yourself deeper in the crook of his neck. “i love you.” the steady rhythm of his heartbeat and the feeling of his fingers stroking your hair is enough to make your fall fast asleep soon after.

xiao smiles and plants a gentle kiss on your forehead. “sweet dreams, my love.”

albedo always takes the time to make you lunch to bring to work in the mornings. your health is his number one priority, and he wants to make sure you always having something healthy and filling to eat.

he’s always been an early riser, so it fits perfectly within his morning routine to pack you lunch. it’ll be something different every day; some days it’s a signature mondstadt salad, and other days it might be an inazuma-style bento box, like the one you said you wanted to try when you saw it at the grocery store with him.

sometimes you’ll wake up and go down to the kitchen to find him in the middle of preparing your lunch; he’ll kiss you good morning as he cuts up apple slices.

when you wake up on your afternoon shift days, you’ll notice the neatly packed container of food sitting on the kitchen counter, along with a bottle of water and a handwritten sticky note on the box’s lid with be sure to eat. i love you. -albedo

scaramouche supports you on all of your social media platforms. as a former internet influencer, he shows his love by helping you grow more popular.

one day, all of scara’s instagram followers were shocked when they saw the “0 following” turn into “1 following.” that one person, was you. not long after that, he posted a new story full of silly pictures of you and him, captioned “i wanna punch them (with my lips).”

scaramouche’s contact name for you is “my idiot 🖤” and though he’ll never admit it, he’s always stealing a glance at his phone to check if you texted him or not.

the moment you type “hi” he’ll respond with “what do you want” 0.000012875 seconds after you sent it. you’re always shocked, “how do you reply so fast ??” and then he leaves you on read 💀

kazuha leaves little notes for you everywhere. in between the pages of your notebook, stuck to the bathroom mirror, on top of your laptop.

the notes are short, but always so sweet; things like “i left a little surprise for you :)” with a handmade gift or a cheesy joke such as “are you the sun? because my whole world revolves around you. ;D”

he’ll always draw adorable little doodles of cats and leaves on the notes, and maybe even write a love poem for you if there’s enough space.

every note always manages to bring a smile to your face; you keep all of his notes in a mini album to carry around with you, so whenever you’re away or feeling sad you can take it out and read his sweet, loving words.

ending notes. and there you have it! this was so much less stressful than enchanted but it still took me a few days to finish it :/ sorry for the late night post but this was very cute and much easier to write, so i hope you enjoyed reading as much as i enjoyed writing ! ! ♡

[silkflovvers]

Hello friend! Did I see a PACIFIC RIM ALBEDO AU?!

Please, may I humbly requeat a snippet for Albedo Day?

A FELLOW PERSON OF CULTURE I SEE

I will forewarn you this AU started as me writing out a summary of an idea in a discord server that just eventually got out of hand and became too detailed to call a summary, so the grammar and all that is not up to par with my other writing. However, it is still all safely tucked away in a 6k word doc and begging to be shared in any form it may take!

Apologies for any inconsistencies anywhere! This is long, so I hope it doesn't cut off anywhere....

"Pacific Rim AU"

Rating: T? Ship: Kaebedo (at least it was end goal, no real romance is happening) Tags: Canon typical violence, minor character death, hurt/comfort

Diluc and Kaeya used to be a Jaeger pilot team because they were drift compatible due to growing up together since a young age, but a battle went wrong and Diluc and Kaeya were both injured. Kaeya had to pilot the Jaeger alone for a few minutes until he blacked out. When he came to Diluc wasn't there anymore, instead there was a rescue team (Amber and Noelle) helping him out of the control room cockpit thing. Whatever you call it. 

So Kaeya is forcibly retired from piloting. He still gets headaches and body aches occasionally, blaming it on Diluc each time, wherever he may be. The fact that he can still feel him lets him know he's out there somewhere, alive.

He hates being barred from piloting his Jaeger, his baby he so lovingly piloted straight into battle countless times. He itches to be back in the suit, but Jean won't allow him to unless he can find a new partner he can safely drift with. Kaeya is stubborn and doesn't want to drift with anyone but his missing brother.

His and Diluc's Jaeger is slowly but surely repaired. Seeing it in one piece as good as new nearly drives Kaeya insane. He sneaks into the hold to check the mechanics' work. Thinking everyone had gone back to the barracks for the day, he strolls through the Jaeger like there's no threats in sight. 

Then, Albedo asks him what the hell he's doing in the Jaeger without safety equipment and the right papers documenting he has the permission to be on board and scares the crap out of him.

Kaeya doesn't like this little blond mechanic's attitude and snaps back that it's his robot. He has every right to be in it.

Albedo, unfazed, informs him it's the Ordo's robot and he needs to see his papers with Jean's stamp of approval.

Kaeya doesn't have any papers.

—————

Kaeya learns that Albedo is the head of the mechanic team overseeing his Jaeger through gossip in the mess hall and probably through some back hallway interrogations of the apprentice welders and electricians on the team that he manages to corner.

From that moment on, Kaeya decides he's going to either bribe or seduce Albedo into letting him into the Jaeger.

Absolute nonsense ensues

Kaeya does EVERYTHING he can possibly think of to convince Albedo to let him in the robot. 

He decides Albedo must be made of stone to reject all of his advances and attempts, but he does learn little tidbits of information about the mechanic.

He learns that Albedo is Klee's big brother, that he's close with Sucrose, and hears some saucy rumors about him and lieutenant Huffman from the strategy sector. He also learns that Albedo is the one who painted the mural in the main lobby and the one in the mess hall.

Kaeya starts to see Albedo as more than just the mechanic he's trying to sweet talk into letting him back in the robot.

By the time Albedo just BARELY starts to soften up, Jean catches on to what Kaeya was trying to do and essentially puts him in time out on paper work duty. He's stuck with Lisa in record keeping for a solid week. They were friendly before, but Jean doesn't realize her mistake of putting those two in a room together, because Kaeya just got a free week of romance lessons and he's going to win Albedo's heart once he's free.

So Kaeya, with new tricks up his sleeve and moral support from Lisa, approaches Albedo for once without the intent to get back in his robot. 

Except, Albedo was actually looking for Kaeya. He needs someone to test the drift apparatus to ensure it’s functional.

All of Kaeya's week-long training gets thrown out the window as soon as the chance to get back in the Jaeger is handed to him without any argument.

Of course he accepts. But, then he remembers the Jaeger needs two people.

He asks who the other pilot is going to be.

Albedo gives him an odd look before saying he'll take the place of second pilot for maintenance reasons.

Kaeya's dumbfounded, obviously.

He shamelessly asks Albedo if he knows anything about how drift compatibility works (Pacific Rim 2, your lack of drift compatibility lore is not welcome here)

Albedo, calmly, asks if he knows who he's talking to, tool belt in one hand and documents in the other.

Kaeya's realizes it was a dumb thing to say and simply asks if he thinks it's safe since they've never drifted before. Albedo simply tells him he thinks they'd be compatible and walks off towards the hangar where the Jaegers are kept. Kaeya follows, but can't for the life of him come up with a reply

So they get all suited up and Kaeya tries his hardest to keep unprofessional thoughts out of his head when he sees Albedo suited up, for safety reasons, not just to be sexy. He knows Albedo will know he thought those things if they do successfully drift and he wasn't about to risk all of Lisa's training turning into a waste.

With the team in the control room and in the hangar on standby, they commence the testing. There's mild turbulence on Kaeya's end, memories of the battle where he lost Diluc, threatening to tear him out of his calm focus. His mind turns to flames and burning oil, overheated cores and alarms ringing. Albedo reaches out to him and brings him back with a cold hand. When Kaeya catches sight of Albedo's thoughts and memories that slip through, he sees nothing but a cold, cold mountain, littered with ruins.

Then he's standing in the snow with his hands both grasped tightly by Albedo's. 

They're drift compatible.

The tests go smoothly without any hiccups and they pull out of the drift.

Kaeya can barely function out of pure shock that someone, someone other than Diluc, successfully drifted with him without either of them passing out, getting a nosebleed, or something exploding.

Albedo pulls off his helmet like this was a normal day for him. The rest of the team is silent over the communications channel. Jean is the first to ask if they're both alright. Albedo answers for the both of them and immediately asks for a run down of the diagnostics.

—————

Kaeya doesn't sleep that night. He lays awake with nothing on his mind but snow covered mountains and the thrill of being back in the Jaeger. He wants to feel it again.

First thing in the morning, Kaeya asks Albedo to be his copilot. Albedo nearly throws his coffee on him. It's 4 am and he was up all night going over the data to make sure the tests were completely successful and that the Jaeger's drift apparatus wouldn't cause any harm to the pilots, however minute it may be. He doesn't know why Kaeya is awake at this hour or why he's energetically saying good morning like a regular person would at 7am at the earliest. And did he just ask him to be his copilot?

Albedo refuses.

Kaeya feels like he's back at square one.

Albedo reasons that he's a mechanic and a researcher. Not a soldier. He's here to build and fix the Jaegers, not pilot them and knock some Kaiju around.

Kaeya pleads with him, explaining he's only the second person who's ever successfully drifted with him. He needs Albedo to be his copilot if he ever wants Jean to let him back in his big metal baby ever again. He doubts Varka would even let him if he ever returned from the other branch across the ocean.

Albert stands firm in his rejection. He's not a pilot.

Kaeya is heartbroken.

But Albedo has softened up to him, and he doesn't want Kaeya to be miserable, even if he prefers not to meddle in other people's affairs. 

With a foreign air of hesitation, Albedo asks Kaeya to keep him company while he works. All that's left to fine tune are the functions unique to Pavo Noctua (Kaeya and Diluc's Jaeger). Albedo reasons there may not be anyone who knows the robot better than Kaeya.

Of course, Kaeya completely falls for the praise, not seeing it for what it is. He does enjoy feeling needed though, after being retired for so long. He was getting tired of training all the new recruits who were more likely to step foot in a Jaeger than he was these days.

Albedo enjoyed Kaeya's company, even if he wouldn't admit it. But above all, he was curious about what went on inside the pilot's head after the glimpse he saw while they were drifting.

Kaeya too, was curious about the place he saw in the drift. He wanted to ask Albedo about it, but didn't know how many boundaries that may cross.

So he does it subtly. He asks little questions to get to know the blond better as they toil away on circus boards and specialized conduits for one mechanism or another.

—————

Albedo opens up. Slowly. And so does Kaeya.

Eventually, he learns what that mountain means to Albedo, months after they drifted.

That mountain was once his home. He lived amongst historians, archivists, and researchers in his youth. He was raised by a smart, stern woman who expected much of him and kept him fed and safe in return. He doesn't know his parents, but he could guess they were once part of the team exploring the mountain. A terrible snow storm had swept a portion of the team off a cliff years before he heard about it. He was able to piece together that his parents were likely part of the portion that never made it back. 

His guardian left him at an encampment at the base of the mountain to venture into town for supplies. 

There was a breach in the ocean, Albedo could see the boiling waves crash against the shoreline from the tents. A Kaiju appeared. It laid waste to the small town and sent the researchers fleeing up the mountain in desperation. Albedo tripped and fell, injuring his leg and shoulder. He wasn't able to run away with the rest of them.

A Jaeger intercepted the Kaiju before it could come after the people on the mountain. The beast was defeated, but at the cost of many lives. Albedo's guardian and the rest of the research team didn't return. He couldn't be sure how many had fled in fear and how many had perished.

He was rescued by the team that led the Jaeger defense. They took him in when they recognized his potential once he was healed. He took to Jaeger blueprints with ease and became a mechanic by the age of 14, and one with power and respect.

Kaeya asks Albedo if he wants to go back to his barrack for a drink that night.  He doesn't have any naughty intentions, he just doesn't think Albedo looks like he wants to be alone after telling his story.

Somehow, Kaeya doesn't expect it when he agrees, despite his offer.

So they walk back in silence through the hallways. Kaeya finds his heartbeat steadily increasing the closer they get to his quarters. It's not impressive. Each worker has the same size place to call their own, regardless of status. The only difference being that some choose to room together. With Diluc MIA, Kaeya's on his own. Diluc's belongings haven't been moved or even touched since the day he went missing. 

The first thing Albedo thinks when he steps inside is that it's like Kaeya's brother never left. That is, until he sees the thick layer of dust on his bunk.

Kaeya pulls a bottle of wine out from the cabinet along with two glasses. Albedo notices one is cracked.

They drink quietly at first, but Albedo can't help but notice the way Kaeya's facade seems to crumble more and more the further into the bottle they go

Eventually Kaeya starts to share his story, without any prompting from the blond.

He explains that he too, was twice orphaned.

He was left in a strange town by his birth father when they fled their hometown due to the residual radiation from a slain Kaiju.  He was found by Diluc's father, Crepus. He was taken in by the staff and given a new family, though it was small. It consisted only of Diluc and his father. Though, Kaeya often considered the house staff family as well. He was raised alongside Diluc like they were siblings. They trained and grew up to be one of the most successful Jaeger pilot teams on Teyvat. More dead Kaiju under their belts than you could count on two hands. No one had ever faced that many beasts before them and lived to tell the tale. 

But then came the day the category 4 Kaiju breached.

Their father died that day. And it was the day Diluc vanished. Kaeya was left alone, unable to climb back into the one thing he had left without his brother as his copilot. And he lost sight in his right eye after it became infected with Kaiju blood.

Albedo didn't know what to do when Kaeya started crying.

He wasn't the type of person people usually broke down in front of. Most people wouldn't hold his attention long enough to even have the chance to.

—————

Kaeya wakes up in the morning with his head on Albedo's lap. He doesn't know how to feel when he realizes the mechanic didn't leave him alone after his breakdown.

Albedo's still asleep when there's a knock on his door. 

It's Jean and she's been crying.

Kaeya doesn't know what's happening and he's entirely too hung over for all this excitement.

She tells him Diluc is back.

He almost collapses then and there.

He rushes out of the room, leaving Albedo confused and groggy. Jean only gives him an odd look when she notices him on Kaeya's bed in his work uniform.

Kaeya finds Diluc in the infirmary, being tended to by Barbara. 

He's different. Kaeya can tell just by looking at him. His eyes don't sparkle like they did before when he finally looks at him.

Diluc looks like a dead man parading around in the body of his brother. His eyes are cloudy and sunken, his skin even paler than before, but littered in scars Kaeya couldn't even begin to guess how he had gotten.

Barbara leaves the two alone to talk, but Diluc doesn't talk. He flinches away when Kaeya reaches out to him. This man isn't his brother, not anymore.

Diluc is placed in a separate room for the time being, leaving their old shared barrack to Kaeya alone. Almost like he'd never returned at all. It had been 4 years without him. And nothing changed once he returned. Kaeya still felt alone.

—————

Upon Jean's well meaning request, the two climb into their Jaeger. Kaeya doesn't miss the wild look in Diluc's eyes. He knows it's going to end badly before he can tell the control center to stop the drift process, but it's too late.

Kaeya wakes up in the infirmary with an apologetic Jean by his side. He feels like his head was split open twice and sewn back together with barbed wire.

Jean informs him that Diluc is no longer fit to pilot a Jaeger. And with a long pause, she informs him that he and his brother are no longer drift compatible.

Twice. Twice Kaeya has lost his copilot.

—————

He knocks on Albedo's door later that night when he knows he's finished up his diagnostic tests on the core of the Jaeger.

When Albedo opens the door, he explains that it hurts to see Diluc's empty bunk.

The mechanic let's him in without any questions. He lets Kaeya curl around him on the cramped bed suitable for only one person at a time.

It becomes routine until Kaeya's room doesn't even feel like his own anymore. Unless Albedo is there to keep him company.

Slowly, baby steps, Albedo convinces Kaeya to pack up Diluc's old things. He delivers them to the redhead in Kaeya's place.

Diluc doesn't know him. Albedo smiles, but it doesn't reach his eyes. He's been tuning he and Kaeya's Jaeger since they first piloted it, Diluc had just never given him the time of day. Kaeya only met him recently, but Diluc? Diluc was the one he spoke to directly whenever there was something wrong with the robot, yet he acted like they'd never met.

Albedo brushed it off and returned to Kaeya after the day's work. Jean had given the pilot time off to recover, as much as he needed.

—————

It takes time, but Kaeya does recover. 

He gets back to whipping the trainees into shape with a ferocity that puts fear into the hearts of even the most self confident trainees. Jean has to ask him to dial it back so he doesn't scare them all off.

Diluc has taken up a quiet job within the intelligence sector once he settled in. Despite speaking very little since his return, he came back with a wealth of information.

—————

Sucrose, the resident Kaiju researcher, alerts Jean of unusual energy fluctuations coming from a known breach location close to the institution. She suspects multiple Kaiju may break through soon.

Jean contacts other branches that would be willing to lend reinforcements.

She is able to enlist the help of three Jaeger teams from Liyue, Vago Mundo (Zhongli and Xiao), Big Dipper (Ningguang and Beidou), and Evilsoother (Chongyun and Xingqiu). One team from Inazuma is also sent in to help, Frostflake Heron (Ayaka and Thoma). An independent brother-sister duo that had temporarily been stationed in Inazuma, Stella Fortuna (Lumine and Aether), volunteered to join Frostflake Heron in helping the Ordo Favonius fight the looming Kaiju threat.

When the teams arrive one by one with their colorful cast of mechanics, strategists, and managers, Kaeya’s mood sours.

—————

Albedo had started sleeping in Kaeya’s barrack more often than his own, either sharing a bunk with Kaeya or claiming Diluc’s old bed. He’d done so without Kaeya having to ask. He’d simply understood the forlorn look in the pilot’s eyes each night they should have split off to go to their own rooms.

—————

Kaeya is unusually quiet the night of the welcome party for the reinforcements. Apart from customary thanks and greetings as a high ranking member of the Ordo during the start of the celebration, he speaks to no one that night. Even when he drags Albedo into his room for the night, he says nothing. 

It scares Albedo, but he doesn’t understand why.

—————

Only a day passes before the alarms sound through the halls in the middle of the night. The staff are scrambling through the corridors to get to their posts. Two category three Kaiju have breached, just as Sucrose predicted.

Albedo tears himself out of Kaeya’s arms on a mad dash for the hangar. As one of the senior mechanics, he’ll be needed now more than ever. Kaeya, frustrated, angry, and silent, makes his way to Jean’s side in the strategy room. Screens and monitors line every wall. The staff are frantically typing away, attempting to run the proper protocols and start up programs to get everything running. 

The teams ready themselves in their mechs.

Kaeya watches.

He watches as they power up and some get helicoptered out to the location. The Jaegers better suited to long distances and water, are left to travel there on their own. The site isn’t far. Big Dipper cuts through the water like its pilots were aquatic. Frostflake Heron and Stella Fortuna have thrusters that allow them to glide over the water.

Vago Mundo is the tank of the reinforcements. They’re dispatched to the frontlines. Evilsoother is fast and precise, the young team rounds up the two Kaiju and pushes them back into Vago Mundo’s range. Big Dipper arrives next and traps the beasts in with powerful electrical currents that cut through the water from its blade. The amphibious Jaeger’s turrets fire sparkling gold that can be seen from the windows of the strategy room.

—————

Kaeya watches.

Everything is going too smoothly. Two of the Jaegers haven’t made it there yet and the beasts have almost fallen.

Kaeya watches as Sucrose comes barreling into the room, screaming in near hysterics that another Kaiju has breached. It’s category four.

Panic sets deep into Kaeya’s bones. He is tired of watching.

The room erupts into chaos as every communication line is buzzing with frantic warnings.

No one can get through to Stella Fortuna.

The sea bursts open beneath the white and gold Jaeger. A gaping maw of glowing teeth rips them out of the sky and pulls them under the thrashing waves.

Frostflake Heron pursues them into the ocean, only for their communications to turn to static.

One of the Kaiju breaks loose from the tight hold of the Liyue Jaeger teams. It forces Evilsoother under the waves as the other two attempt to put a swift end to the first. The sea is tainted with shimmering blue blood as Big Dipper chops the head off the Kaiju trapped in Vago Mundo’s cage of pulsing spears.

Over the radios, Beidou of the Big Dipper team is informing the others that she and Ningguang will go help Frostflake Heron and Stella Fortuna. Vago Mundo quickly tells them to go and lunges after where Evilsoother vanished under the tide. 

Communications crackle with static and a gut wrenching scream.

It was Ayaka of Frostflake Heron.

Kaeya sprints for the hangar.

As soon as he’s through the door, his eyes lock on to the blond mechanic barking instructions to his subordinates. Without as much as a hello, Kaeya throws him over his shoulder and runs for Pavo Noctua. He flings Albedo inside and yells for him to suit up.

Albedo refuses, he demands to know what’s going on.

Kaeya explains what new events had occurred since the alarms started and tells him he can’t just sit around any longer and watch their reinforcements die. If they fell, all the innocent lives in the Ordo would surely be next.

He begs, he pleads, he’s ready to grovel for Albedo to agree. 

Of course Jean doesn’t know about this when the launch sequence is started. 

The workers in the hangar do their best to flee out of the way. They can hear Vago Mundo and Evilsoother reporting that the second category three Kaiju is down, but they haven’t seen the other three teams. Big Dipper has not returned to the surface yet, nor have the other two.

Pavo Noctua sets off for the last location they were sighted above water and dives. The water is murky and black like ink. Fortunately Pavo Noctua is best suited for combat in poor visibility and Albedo knows how to read every sensor like it’s his first name.

They see four heat sources down deep. One is starting to go cold. 

Big Dipper is slashing away at the jaw holding tight to Stella Fortuna. The Kaiju is slashing back with a sharp prehensile tail. A few broken spines protrude from the limp form of Frostflake Heron and it’s lights are flickering. Stella Fortuna is struggling in the cage of glowing teeth. Something is leaking from their core.

Albedo recognizes the shimmering liquid and dangerous glow immediately and instructs Kaeya to help him pull Big Dipper away before-

The ocean erupts in a blinding light as they whisk Big Dipper away from the beast.

The tail lashes out and sends Pavo Noctua spiraling into an underwater cliff. 

Weapons located in the upper left shoulder are down and using that arm to shoot frozen bullets strains Kaeya’s muscles with a searing pain.

Evilsoother rushes in during the blinding distraction and pulls Frostflake Heron away from the battle and back to the base on the shore. 

—————

Albedo can feel the pain Kaeya’s in from the collision, but they successfully pulled Big Dipper out of the range of the explosion. Stella Fortuna… wasn’t as lucky. They see Evilsoother vanish above the water and feel the rumble as the beast roars.

It’s angry now.

Pavo Noctua takes its battle stance, Big Dipper does the same beside them.

Then the Kaiju’s mouth opens wide and glows brighter than the sharp teeth that line its speckled purple gums. The ocean screams.

A beam of pure radiation cuts between the two Jaegers before they can dodge it.

Kaeya cries out in agony as Pavo Noctua’s left arm is ripped out of its socket from the force of the beam. It melts into the sand on the seafloor. A glance to the side confirms that Big Dipper managed to jump out of the line of fire. Their Jaeger is still in one piece.

The Kaiju prepares to charge forward, Albedo raises his sword.

The flat of Big Dipper's blade smashes into the side of the Kaiju’s skull. It screeches and smacks them away with its tail. They’re sent spiraling over a rocky outcrop.

Fatigue is seeping into Albedo. He’s not a warrior, not even a soldier. He’s just a mechanic stupid enough to agree to copilot a Jaeger without written permission or prior training. Despite Kaeya’s position having more control over the left arm, he feels the pain too through the drift. It’s there and it feels real, but he isn’t the one with sparks shooting onto his suit. There’s a leak somewhere in the Jaeger. They’re taking on water, but it isn’t anything the mech can’t handle or flush out with the mechanisms Albedo designed.

Suddenly, the beast sharply turned and darted towards the other mech it had just sent flying. Albedo does his best to drag them forwards through a break in the rock. Big Dipper’s lights are flickering on and off and the mech lays still. An important component had to have been struck. The Kaiju is headed straight for them. 

—————

Sand bursts around them as something heavy crashes down atop the Kaiju.

Vago Mundo’s distinct, swirling, geometric lights shine through the debris in a subtle glow. The team gracefully wrestles the Kaiju until it’s soft underbelly is exposed and directed towards Pavo Noctua’s blade.

Even with communications down and Kaeya injured, the two get the message and fillet it straight down the middle. Shimmering blue blood leaks from its insides like smoke as it thrashes in Vago Mundo’s hold. 

Eventually the Kaiju’s struggling weakens. It’s body is thrown to the sea floor, only for its skull to be crushed beneath the weight of one of Vago Mundo’s pillars.

They were taking no chances.

—————

Vago Mundo lifts up Big Dipper with ease and starts towards the shore. Pavo Noctua does their best to follow. The adrenaline from the fight begins to lose its potency the closer they get to shore. The pain catches up with Kaeya and the ache of exhausted limbs hits Albedo at full force. Everything goes fuzzy, his head is pounding, and it’s harder to move before he realizes Kaeya has blacked out. The strain of the copilot losing consciousness is too much for him. He faints from the pain of being the sole pilot in a matter of seconds.

Pavo Noctua lurches forward beneath the waves.

—————

Kaeya wakes up to bright lights and Barbara’s startled face as he jerks the IV she was connecting out of his arm. He’s in pain, but he’s numb. He can feel that familiar tug at the back of his eyes, but can’t feel the tearing, ripping pain in his shoulder.

In a panic he asks what happened. Barbara’s smile is sad when she tells him they won the battle. It falters when he asks about the others. She goes down the list, Vago Mundo team came out unscathed, Evilsoother had a few bruised ribs and scrapes but nothing major, Big Dipper’s Beidou suffered a concussion, but is steadily recovering, Frostflake Heron was deprived of their oxygen supply for a few minutes past the line between safe and dangerous, but seem to be fine.

He doesn’t miss the way she leaves out Albedo and Stella Fortuna.

The sibling team unfortunately comes as no surprise to him. He witnessed the explosion. There was no time for the compromised escape pod to launch. There couldn’t have been any survivors.

But Albedo? The lack of his name from her lips had him gripping her wrist until she was crying out in pain.

She explains Albedo spent a concerning amount of time piloting the Jaeger while Kaeya was unconscious and they aren’t sure of what the consequences may be. He’s currently sleeping after being kept awake for observation. But he’s alive.

Barbara tells him not to move too much and to call for someone if he needs something before she leaves.

—————

He’s released after a week of Jean mandated bed rest in the infirmary. The first thing he does is beeline for Albedo’s infirmary room. When he walks in, Albedo’s sitting up in bed with a tray of soup and biscuits over his lap. He doesn’t notice Kaeya when he walks in. All his attention seems to be on the spoon in his hand.

Kaeya tells him that’s an interesting way to hold a spoon. The sudden noise startles Albedo and the spoon goes clattering into the bowl, splashing hot soup into his lap and making him jump again. Kaeya rushes forward and grabs napkins to soak up the hot liquid. Albedo attempts to pick up the rag on the tray, but can’t. It slips through his fingers and he curses.

Kaeya pauses and pulls away. He’s never heard Albedo sound so frustrated. He watches him attempt to pick up the cloth until he eventually gives up. Kaeya’s already wiped up the soup, anyway. He asks the mechanic if he’s okay.

Albedo doesn’t answer.

Then, he asks Kaeya to leave.

—————

Catching him looking lost in the hallway, Jean pulls Kaeya aside to regretfully inform him that despite his heroics, he is permanently retired from piloting a Jaeger. He tries to argue, but Jean stops him with a folder of his medical record pressed to his chest. She reasons that his impaired vision, trauma, and the permanent nerve damage in his left arm from this last battle puts him at too much risk. They can’t afford a liability on the battlefield. She apologizes as his friend and his superior.

—————

He tracks down Barbara to find out what’s wrong with Albedo. Barbara tries to tell him she’s not allowed to share that information with him without Albedo’s consent, but Kaeya talks his way into making her tell him. Once he gets the information out of her, she covers her mouth like she’s done something unspeakable and runs away.

The prolonged time piloting the Jaeger as well as the added impact when the mech toppled over caused a serious brain and spinal cord injury that impaired his fine motor skills. He is unable to hold or grasp things without a large amount of effort and focus. Currently, he’s struggling to walk, but Barbara believes that will improve with time.

Suddenly, Kaeya wonders if this means they’ll both be permanently retired from their respective jobs. He knew this would come one day for himself, though he’d hoped for a few more years in the Jaeger before it happened. But Albedo? He’d thought Albedo would be fixing up the mechs until he was ready to keel over and die. Now he couldn’t even hold a screwdriver.

And it was Kaeya’s fault.

That’s exactly what Albedo said to him three weeks later once he’d worked up the nerve to apologize.

The former mechanic's words cut like knives as he blamed him for taking away everything that made life worthwhile. Barbara was left to stand stunned in the corner and watch as Albedo’s outburst continued. He yelled until tears poured down his face and all he could do was sob. 

Once he calmed down, Kaeya silently got his attention. He still looked furious, but exhaustion was stronger. Before he could say anything, Kaeya picked something up in his right hand and sat it in the palm of his left. Albedo watched him with a puzzled expression. He curled his fingers around it and tilted it sideways. The item fell from his grip and clattered to the floor.

Albedo’s blue eyes stared at the item on the floor for a long moment before he looked back up at Kaeya. The retired pilot simply smiled and told him they’re the  same. His nerve damage causes burning pain if he grips things and even then he can’t judge how tightly he needs to hold something. The nerves in his hand are shot. Neither of them can do what they’re meant to do anymore. He pulls his discharge papers from his jacket and holds them out for Albedo to see.

Albedo asks why he was officially discharged. Kaeya explains the injuries he’s accumulated have made him more of a liability than a soldier. For his safety and the safety of others, he was politely fired, but with retirement and disability benefits. And the option to continue training the new recruits. He even got a Medal of Honor. He pulls it out of his other pocket and loops it over Albedo’s head to hang around his neck.

Albedo asks him why he’s giving away his medal. Kaeya informs him his medal is in his quarters. This one is for the brave mechanic who leapt into battle against three Kaijus.

The former mechanic lifts the medal up so he can see it better, but there’s a tremor in one of his hands and it wobbles.

When anger starts to burn in his eyes once more, Kaeya speaks up again. He tells Albedo to pay Jean a visit at the end of the week if he’s rested enough. She has a new job offer for him. Albedo gives him another confused look. Kaeya simply tells him that just because he can’t use his hands doesn’t mean he can’t use his head. The way Albedo’s eyes go wide makes it clear he hadn’t considered that.

Kaeya says he’ll let him get back to his scheduled rehab with Barbara and turns to leave. Before he exits the room he turns back to Albedo to tell him he’s always welcome in his barrack if he ever gets lonely.

—————

As he’s getting ready to turn in for the night, Kaeya hears a knock on his door. Thinking it may be Albedo, he opens it rather than tells the other person that it’s unlocked. He’s instead surprised by Diluc’s shock of red hair.

He’s not meeting Kaeya’s eye as he opens his mouth to speak.

He tells Kaeya he heard about Jean retiring him from being a pilot. He knows that was Kaeya’s whole life. As his brother, well, sort of, he wanted to give his condolences. If he had been more stable and been able to copilot the Jaeger, he knows it wouldn’t have ended this way.

Kaeya isn’t sure how to respond. He’s angry Diluc would doubt Albedo’s ability, he’s sad Diluc couldn’t fight with him, he’s sympathetic to Diluc’s condition, and he suddenly just wants to go to bed.

He doesn’t have the energy to talk things out with Diluc tonight. There’s too much to cover and he has to oversee training in the morning. He thanks Diluc for coming to see him, but tells him they can talk more tomorrow. The redhead looks relieved at his suggestion and bids him Goodnight.

Another knock comes an hour later, after he’s tossed and turned in his bunk with sleep nowhere in sight. He opens the door with a quiet huff of frustration, but softens at the sight of Albedo. A pillow is pinned to his chest by his forearms.

They don’t talk, but Albedo lets Kaeya hold him tight until they both drift off to sleep.

Hey so I think everyone needs a reminder on how to interact with people:

It's fine to "spam like" a person if you're just going through their stuff during the day you find said creator. If they're a popular tumblr user I doubt they'll notice if you spam their notifications after the fact cause they probably have them off anyway.

However, I am not a big tumblr user, I keep my notifications on and check here when I see them so I tend to notice the same person spamming me. This is about those of us that check notifications cause we be small and want to see the interactions.

If you're going through someones posts and you're constantly on their notifications for 11 days straight because you keep unliking and reliking their content, that's fucking creepy.

I don't mind the spam likes if it's literally just one maybe two days of someone seeing my content and liking it. (Especially the Ben 10 or Young Justice posts).

But like 11 days? That's too fucking much for me to see you in my notifications when I haven't posted much, if anything, during that time frame. Especially when it's been stuff that was already liked prior. I don't have enough Ben 10 posts that you haven't seen in one or two goddamn days. You don't need 11 days to stifle through all my Ben 10 content.

Like constantly spamming my notifications won't get me to answer your long ass ask faster, in fact it made me put it off even longer. Originally it was cause it was so long I needed to answer on my laptop so I could read it as I responded. But I also kept getting busy and forgetting to respond. So I'll take responsibility for not answering it, doesn't mean it's okay to spam like my shit for almost 2 weeks because I didn't answer you.

In fact said person even chatted me about it the other day and I explained why it took so long. (Although they apologized for it being long over asking why it took so long.) Then they proceeded to spam like content they already liked again.

Spamming won't get a creator to notice you, they'll just straight up fucking block you.

his team 💀 : itto , yanfei , beidou , noelle .

i had a hyper fixation on all of them at the time so i just put them on one team because i liked them 😍🫶🏾 . i literally had gorou and never thought to put him on the team with itto 💀 .

[silverpursuesgold]

my twitter fyp is full of albedo art. the world is healing

[soaopy]

happy birthday albedo!

this reminds me of the birthday art i posted the same time last year

i haven’t been playing much or at all these days, but i will always be forever attached to this guy

[reshinless]

kiss him to shut him up ☆

summary. literally the title.

director's note. greetings disciples, i feel as though I have been FLOPPING!! so have something I'm frfr proud of, happy 1.5k disciples!

pairings. albedo, alhaitham, capitano, childe, wriothesley, neuvillette, dainsleif, diluc, xiao, kinich

warnings. kissing n all that sap (yuck), fluff/suggestive

albedo is busy talking to you about his latest experiments, wrapping his jacket around you to ensure you don't get cold while resting at his lab. maybe he didn't notice the sneaky glances you set from his ocean eyes to his lips.

"and so... it basically recreated a somewhat circle of-" peck! ... "huh?"

he doesn't which feeling is more dominant; flushed or confused. yet he won't complain too much, displaying a simple smile as he slowly blinks with confusion, lovingly at least.

alhaitham happened to be ranting about a drunkard he spotted at the bar he and his friends (cyno, tighnari, & kaveh) went to while playing TCG, cyno's treat.

but when it truly sinks in that you had just kissed him, he wished you had kept it for a little longer. honestly was very close to leaning back in and letting it lead to something else, but he wouldn't let his pride down. deciding on giving a smirk, and poking one of your cheeks.

"what was that for, hmm?"

capitano is secretly someone who talks a ton when you get to know him despite his cold exterior, he's very fond of getting to tell you about his day, not being able to necessarily tell anyone (other than pierro)

before you could pull away from the simple peck on his crusted lips- it's almost immediate that he pulls you back in, giving you barely any time to breathe. simply leaning in more to the kiss, a hand behind your head grasping your hair to prevent you from getting away. it's alright, he loves a chase.

"trying to tease me, my love?" a deep, dark chuckle emits from his raspy throat as he runs a hand down your spine, from your scalp to your back, his eyes pierced you with love.

childe is sooo obviously cheeky about this, his teasing is inevitable when you're the one initiating this. yet he finds himself so stunned from the whole thing, he could feel the blush creep up from his neck already.

he was busy telling you about his previous adventures, trying to impress you and show off his strength, yet the only thing he was able to see from how you looked at him, you were set on your lips on his.

"a- ahh... ahem. feeling uhh... bold i see."

wriothesley is in the category of chasing your lips, trying to immediately reel you back into the peck you caused. pulling you in by your waist so you can't escape his touch. he can't say he wasn't used to your teasing, but this time he wanted you to taste your own medicine.

holding you close, until the very line of saliva that connected both of your lips finally broke apart, it was your turn to be flushed with embarrassment.

"oh, look who's all blushy now."

neuvillette is the one who's stunned this time, yet his hands trail back to yours before you can step away a little too far, his eyes telling you everything that you need to know.

"don't run away now, c'mon..."

his smile was soft and genuine, he felt himself trying to lean in further into your touch, so he could stay asleep forever in your arms. he lands another kiss on your lips. he loves to express how much he loves you, yet he doesn't know how to apply and put it out there.

dainsleif found himself leaning back in almost immediately, he didn't wanna run away from you giving him affection out of everything. his cold fingertips trailing up your nape, a soft grasp on your hair (a bold move indeed!)

"...is that the berry flavored chapstick i bought you last week?"

he loves to notice the little things on you, he knows you appreciate it as well, a loving smile, his eyes equally just as loving, staring at you, and only you.

diluc won't admit the deep-seated embarrassment that envelops him. at first, the warm flush spread from his neck to his cheeks, yet he could notice the very same for you. trying to play it cool, his arm that encircles your waist, drawing you in with a tender grip.

"i suppose this isn’t how I imagined our evening would go,"

his voice was strained, maybe his paperwork could wait till later.

kinich is one of those who pulls you in by the waist, yet finds himself almost too flushed to go through with it. not that he doesn't want to, he's scared that you wouldn't want the same, yet he finds himself leaning in the same way you were, just to taste you again.

"leaving me so soon, you're mean."

ajaw calls you both corny as he comes back from a little walk (with certified dog walker mualani). you could hear a "human! take me back to where we whence came!" (the springs nearby) as you let out a chuckle. a sigh from kinich, he'll have to train him to be a little nicer.

xiao can barely comprehend what you just did. his cheeks flushed with teal. and to give context, it's canon that xiao's blood/insides are all teal- so when he blushes, it's teal, I did a bit of research on this :P but think of it how you will!

he argued that you shouldn't go out tonight, he can handle himself! yet... maybe your little kiss was a little.. maybe very convincing.

"y- you think this will change my mind about all of this, huh?"

⚝ DAY 5 — APHRODISIACS

kinktober 2024. — masterlist | ao3

— including. — venti, dottore, albedo

— warnings. — fem! reader, aphrodisiacs, dub con, established relationship -> the both of you decide to take them, it's unsure in dottore's part if he took it or not, dry humping, fingering, messy and sweaty

⚝ — VENTI

within the bounds of your room, laughter fills the air as venti leisurely leans back, his mischievous smile gleaming in the dim light, "are you sure about this, baby?" he asks with slight concern in his eyes, twirling the tiny vial between his fingers.

yes, in fact, you've spoken about this before— giving the both of you a little kick and wow, his voice was turning you on so fucking much right now— you're this close to begging to be touched already, to be fucked or bend over the chair bareback, slow and dirty.

"well, i am, i thought you would be more adventurous venti," you tease back, your heart pounding in dire need to find out what that little liquid would do to you, your mind already coloring out a thousand of possible outcomes in your head.

he tilts his head and feigns a thought, considering your words before grinning wide.

"for you, i would try anything, heh, you know that," when after he said such strong declaration, he quickly pops up the glass and raises the vial to his lips, the sweet liquid disappearing in an instant as you quickly follow suit.

suddenly, the playful bard’s usual carefree nature intensifies— his touch lingering a little too long, his gaze becoming a little too heated, you're wondering if his cheeks could get any more red if he kept on like this, especially now with his head hidden between your jaw and collarbone, furiously lapping and sucking on your neck, hands grabbing at your stomach.

"feeling it yet?" you coo and moan when he bites the skin, his breath hot against your ear. fuck— this feels perfect, and you're resting on his shoulder with your back flush against the bed-frame when venti barely has to do much to get you riled up.

your body reacts to the closeness and your pussy begins to throb and ache to the point of pain, your thighs squeezing and rubbing together as venti presses his hand between the skin— getting his hand real good in there before the notable ache anchoring in the pit of your stomach develops quicker, his grunts getting messier when he notices how wet and warm you were down there.

your hands glide over his skin as he fiercely rubs your folds, his fingers featherlight but igniting sparks within every stroke, each push and circle of his digits flicking your little pearl as his other arm continues to hug you closer.

the world blurs and you find yourself under him, hair a mess, sweat covered and with venti's hand tugged deep inside your panties— your wetness by now making the fabric stick to his hand as the the obscene noises of your warm pussy were becoming all the more embarrassing and loud.

much to the bards liking.

⚝ — DOTTORE

"um, you’ve tested it before, right?" you curiously tilt your head as dottore hands you a vial, watching closely as you drink it— it's right then when you can see subtle happiness in his eyes.

but you don't question it, you just don't.

the liquid was warm as it slid down your throat, the thickness of it almost making you cough it out and almost instantly, a tingling sensation spreads through your muscles and veins.

"oh, don't be scared my love, i know its effects very well," dottore says with a dark chuckle, "but experiencing it firsthand is a different kind of fun."

dottore doesn’t wait before downing his own dose, his red eyes gleaming with an exciting, yet twisted intensity— not long after the air grows thick between you as the effects takes hold, there's a moment when the only sound you could discern was your own breathing, your skin basically set on fire.

his gloved fingers slowly trace your collarbone as he hums, methodical yet filled with an unfamiliar hunger— truly, he begins to grind himself against your thigh as he moves your hand to his bulge for you to stroke it.

his breath quickens when you slip a hand into his boxers and notice his cum smeared all over the fabric.

you realize with a jolt that the carefully composed facade he always wore was gradually crumbling, his control slipping away as he let out a sob of relief when you unbottoned his pants.

hm wait— or was he faking it? he couldn't, correct? you saw him take the dosage.

"you are mine to study, to explore," he utters cruely, his chosen syllables crisp and evenly spoken, clean words holding no trembles, "say it," his voice hoarse.

the warmth of his body eases you to push your legs apart for him to wrap his arms around your waist and pull you on his lap— it's hot when he takes the lead, when dottore gets possessive with you and it fills you with a deep sense of pride considering the second harbinger was your boyfriend,

he doesn't stop as your palm stroking him was now replaced by your naked folds smearing up and down his shaft— the pressure in your gut increasing.

your eyes glow of what you believe was love, "i'm yours to study, yours to explore," you whine, lazily rolling his tip against your clit as he squeezes your behind and leads your movements.

and for once, you don’t mind being an experiment. if it was for the man you have fallen in love with.

⚝ — ALBEDO

albedo examines the aphrodisiac in his hand with a quiet curiosity, his eyes focused as if it were a rare alchemical artifact.

"are you certain this will have the desired effect?" he asks in doubt, although his voice seemed calm, though you can feel the tension in the air— it's not like you didn't know him, albedo probably already prepared something that could immediately take away the effect of the strange liquid.

however, it's rare to see him so unsure, yet it also made your heart skip a beat when you think about how much you meant to him for the alchemist to be so careful, always touching you like you're made out of glass.

"only one way to find out," you reply as you both drink it up next to each other, soon after resting on the bed.

the change is slow, subtle— like the way albedo works with his alchemy, precise and conscious, yet suddenly something weird blooms in your chest, it pounds and runs wild in your veins, spreading like wildfire.

his normally composed features shift, his icy gaze darkening as he gets on top of you.

"everything okay?" the man rests his forehead against yours, his breathing quickened.

you reply and wrap your arms around his neck, "yeah, I'll always be okay with you by my side," and by now, you're panting hard by the time you've coaxed out your reply as he began to roam over the slopes of your bare frame.

his touch, gentle at first, as always, growing a bit tense— he’s careful, yes, methodical in everything he does. your boyfriend was great, wasn't he? but when you turn around for him to admire your bare ass, all perked up with your folds glistening and waiting, he grabs at your hips with an urgency behind it, a silent request for more.

his lips hover over your shoulder, "it’s fascinating… to feel so out of control," he whispers against your skin, and in that moment, all of his precision was lost, dropped and evaporated into sheer nothingness.

he laps at your shoulder as his tongue grew desperate, his touch fervent as the aphrodisiac pushes him past his usual restraint— and the man didn't even realize he's never actually pressed his cock inside, never felt your walls constrict around him like a compression, instead the both of you were rutting against each other like you've never been hornier before.

your ass was already covered with his cum and your folds all puffed up and neglected as he continues to slap his tip against your behind, making a mess of your flesh— and ugh, it’s too good, it feels so good, and the sweet little gasps he pulled from you made him grunt as his cock throbs and thickens against your swollen cunt.
