#didn't know teyvat tiny birds are big birds now

[fieryhonesty]

“Eyy, finally I decided to finish my little apology to our boys. Continuation of the “Friend”. This time it’s Diluc and Kaeya! (N-No I’m not lazy to make separate post for them... that’s not it...). Also my wrist is kinda weird lately so to give it a small practice but not overshoot it I wrote these~”

Diluc is a loner. He might tolerate or handle people around him. After all, it would be weird if he couldn't. Considering he is working at his tavern and there are many different patrons every day. And also probably meets with various people simply due to being the Winery owner. 

But whenever he is done with his socialization he will hide from the public. Let out a tired sigh and be himself for a while. Just being Diluc, a young gentleman with a soft spot for his companion. He adores and cherishes those moments. Silently spending a few minutes just with the hawk which sometimes seeks him in the middle of the day. 

At first you didn't understand why Diluc wears a thick coat and gloves. After seeing the bird land on his arm. All you could do is say 'ah' in realization. 

Once Diluc is done with bonding with his hawk he will let it fly away. Observe how it flies high to the sky. Then going to you and spend time together. You got used to it by now and you don't really mind. In fact you are happy for Diluc. As when you can't be there for him, to let his mind rest from his daily life. The bird will do.

Diluc admits it's not the same as embracing you and nuzzling into your neck. But it's sufficient enough until you are done with your things and return back to the Winery.

Sometimes when the hawk seeks Diluc in the middle of the day and you are present. Not only you are able to witness the love between the owner and his pet. But you are encouraged to pet the hawk. At first you were scared it will actually hurt you. But Diluc assured you nothing bad will happen. 

The hawk was avoiding you at first, balancing at Diluc's arm. It was shy to somebody else's touch. Just like its owner, huh?

At some point it lets you touch it's head. Gently pat it, to your surprise it nuzzled into your hand to give it more pats. You giggled and looked at Diluc who smiled. Why the whole time you were thinking the hawk is literally a smaller version of Diluc. Hesitant at first, shy and avoiding and then melting into your touch.

Maybe if you give it enough time it will sometimes seek you too. Better start carrying thick clothes. You wouldn't want to get hurt by its talons which is kind of unavoidable. Just think of it, talking to somebody and suddenly hearing the hawk. Extending your hand and it will land, require a bit of attention and then fly away. Surely your conversing buddy will be shocked!

>>Sauce<<

Once again I got inspired a bit. But I guess with Diluc it’s obvious what kind of pet he would have. Either his hawk or another turtle like when he was a kid (does this make Kaeya also had the turtle as his pet? or was the turtle before Kaeya was adopted? hmm) 👀 ngl I also had turtles when I was kid. They are so cute 💗

Unlike the other two (Diluc and Xiao) he doesn't really “own” a pet. Nor something seeks his presence. He says he is too busy with his work for the Knights and adoring you. But as you know him, he is probably hiding something.

However when you find out about his occasional feeding sessions of wild foxes at borders with Dragonspine. He has hardly any words for explanation. He is embarrassed as he promised to himself to not really lie to his partner. Unless it's some harmless prank or secret party. He loves you too much for it. 

Sure, he keeps many things for himself. To keep you safe. But he also shares a lot of minor secrets with you. Like how else would you know about secret meeting spots for Treasure Hoarders. Being able to break their illegal plans or know some gossip about certain local merchant who is avoiding taxes. All thanks to your Kaeya.

But now you have caught him in the middle of feeding. The foxes ran away even before you appeared from behind the bushes. He knew about your presence but he had no words to explain. This was the reason why he sometimes came home late. Always giving you an apologetic look. You thought he might be cheating on you. Well cheating with bunch of wild foxes.

You are not sure if it was a mistake or not following him here. As you were extremely curious why would he want to meet up with somebody outside of the city. Well in the end you find out your man is just a big liar and softie. You're gonna act as if you are upset, pressuring him to the corner and feel sorry. He could have told you he was feeding secretly wild animals and you would be fine. Instead of making you worried over nothing. 

At that moment Kaeya realizes his innocent lie actually wasn't so innocent. Next time he will have to think twice before saying or doing anything. But truth to be told he felt a little embarrassed for admitting his fox feeding. He knows he can't have one as a pet, otherwise he would take one home. Spoil it with love just like he does with you.

You can be sure he will try his best to make up for his mistake. Buying you your favorite snack or something else you'd like. Maybe later on if you insist he will share his secret how he became friends with the foxes. Feeding them together, observe from a healthy distance how the berries and meat are slowly disappearing into their tiny tummies. 

Admit it. You like foxes especially now when you can feed them with your beloved. But he better doesn't cause some misunderstanding like this ever again. Would be silly to get into a fight just because he can't admit his soft spot for wild animals.

I swear finding a pic of Kaeya with some animal was an art itself. From the beginning I was thinking of either a wild wolf (sounds more like Razor being adopted by him but whatever) or a wild fox. I’m so happy somebody actually drew it! I love it~ but I also found so many pics which I’m not sure if search was trolling me. “Kaeya with pet” google search: did you mean Kaeya with cat ears? or Diluc? or both of them?! Now I’m craving for some cat boy Kae or Lulu but idk what to do with it, so yeah. 

Again, if anyone happens to know (or you are) the artist, tell them “I love you and your work”. If you are not ok with me having your art here, hit me up I will remove them 😔

Sagau where reader doesn't necessarily need to be in teyvat. reader is a big ass multi shipper, and writes fics of different kinds. And let's just say, Reader's most used characters in their team can hear those ideas. so basically this is like just my take on sagau just to ship zhongluc since zhongli is in my team a lot and this idea came and basically this is self indulgent but- anyways moving on- Going on commissions, doing expeditions, and doing archon/world quests. Zhongli would hear you talking abt him being a perfect match for Diluc. At first he thought you meant, perfect partners on the field, not perfect partners that will love and cherish each other. The more you talked abt Diluc, the more Zhongli got interested. The comments on how he seemed unapproachable on the surface, but an actual caring person on the inside and many other things. He also found Diluc's relationship with alcohol to be quite funny. He really didn't mean to hear all these things, he just had to be there. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ During that one particular day, you kept switching up characters. Sayu was there, jean was there, even Klee. (it's been a while since I played her, I just couldn't get the right artifacts and gave up-) And then there he was. Bright red hair with over all dark clothing. The Diluc that you were talking about. His long gorgeous locks swishing at his back as he fought, the way the flames accent his movement, he felt like he should not interrupt but he was just so perfect- he could not help but stare- it just seemed like time stopped all so suddenly-

"Is everything alright?" Diluc asked, shooting Zhongli a worried look while holding his claymore on one hand like nothing. "Everything is quite alright Master Diluc." Zhongli reassures him, not knowing a blush is on his face. "Diluc is fine Zhongli, if I may call you that that is." "Yes, Zhongli is fine...Diluc..." After getting benched so you could test out your other characters to see their improvement, the two chatted up more. They started off on the talk about wine, Diluc was quite knowledgeable about it, but Zhongli could not help but let out a small chuckle to himself regarding what he heard from you abt his alcohol tolerance. After talks about different kinds of wine, Diluc thought he would talk about some interesting things, such as, Owls perhaps. Diluc told him what he knew, and Zhongli shared facts. Though as time passed, Diluc became more talkative, and Zhongli has gone quieter. Diluc was chatting up quite a storm, and even told stories about his first time having a pet Eagle (or was it hawk? im not a bird expert sorry-). Zhongli just couldn't help it. The way he smiled as he talked about his interests, the way his eyes shine, his voice...he was in a trance. "What is it Zhongli?" That shook him off wonderland. Ah, he did not mean to stare like he's longing- "My apologies Diluc- I could not help but just listen to you when you're simply talking so fondly of things you like. Such experience is just quite mesmerizing." He cursed himself at that. He did not mean to word it like that. "Oh...I-i see...well, do you still wish to listen?" to which Zhongli nods to. He has heard of him from you. Even tiny details. That was enough to make him fall for him, but seeing it all in this very moment...the way he talks was the one thing he did not get to hear, but hearing this here and now...and knowing the details you have spilled to him unknowingly, he felt quite special seeing this side of him. "Oh dear Celestia, please help me." Was all Zhongli could think. He was perfect...he wants to make a move really, but what does a God of war know about these things? Yes, he knows love according to what he has witnessed throughout history, but this...experiencing it...feeling it...it was all too much. "Ah, what should I do..."
