#to the point where they used kaeya as a motivation to practice and to stop huffman from drinking

[kaeyachi]

About oblivious Kaeya hc: I imagine the other Knights who could talk to him about it... would also assume he knows, except for Lisa. Probably she'd figure it out, think it's funny, and maybe try to nudge him along comprehension. (Perhaps Varka too, but we don't know enough about him.) If she's around to see it, with the faith Jean has in his attentiveness and decisions, she'd assume he's already aware and trust his judgement. Especially since it's about his own business in the first place.

ANON I HAD A THOUGHT AFTER THE HANGOUT

Kaeya: wow the knights sure seem to be big fans of me

the knights: we are literally in love with you-

Kaeya: haha, they keep putting up with my shenanigans even though I put them in danger that one time

the knights: sir kaeya pls-

Kaeya: I must be instilling knightly virtues to them

the knights: *rebranding as kaeya simps*

Lisa, watching this all unfold: *sips tea*

Diluc, somewhere, with a protective streak: ...Knights of Favonius, so inefficient-

[merakiui]

Okay okay okay I’ve been thinking about this for a few days now here’s my list of genshin boys most likely to least likely to become a yandere and why:

-xiao. Millennia of suffering and he meets somebody who makes the pain dissipate? Hell never let go.

-diluc. People have died in his arms, he can’t risk losing another loved one... it’s not like he doesn’t have the wealth and resources to keep his beloved by his side.

-Childe. I think he’d be the most dehumanizing yandere - he treats you almost like a child (haha) as be manipulates his way into your heart. And god knows that he gets what he wants.

-albedo is obviously in the top half of this list. We’ve talked about his yandere tendacies before so I won’t relist them but jeez get this boy some therapy.

-razor. Now this sounds surprising but after years of protecting his Lupical, do you really think he’d let somebody he loves and sees as helpless wander alone? I feel hes less captor and manipulative and more of a stalker if he becomes a yandere

-venti. Freedom is his entire world, but can he let his beloved have freedom if it endangers them? One of the most manipulative ones on this list, except he has no clue that he’s doing it.

-kaeya. Maybe you’d gotten to close to one of his secrets. Maybe you’d figured out something he wanted to die. It doesn’t matter much now, all you know is that you were tried and declared guilty by the knights of favonius and were sent into a dungeon protected by the Calvery captain himself.

-zhongli. Has the yandere desires, but refuses to give in. He’s loved and lost so many times over the years and he figures he doesn’t want to take that away from his beloved.

-chongyun. I’ve gone back and forth between him and xingqiu for this one, but I feel like these last 3 are all pretty much tied for not being a yandere. However, if he met someone who could somehow null his congenital positivity than he might move up on this list...

-Xingqiu. He has a strong sense of justice and honor, the idea of manipulating, stalking or god forbid kidnapping his S/O is appalling to him.

-Bennett. Literally just tryna vibe. Devotes as much time as he can to make sure any relationship he has is healthy.

So basically:

Everybody on this list: *frothing at the mouth, thinking of ways to keep their S/Os with them*

Bennett, Chongyun, Xingqiu and to some extent Zhongli: what the fuck

Your list... Simply amazing. Now that I’m thinking about it, I’m beginning to wonder where other characters would sit on the list. Mainly Scaramouche though aha oops Anyways, please never stop sharing your thoughts!! They are so GOOD!

Xiao’s backstory and past is just perfect material to fuel his yandere desires. He’s suffered for so long and has never really experienced positive emotions, let alone love itself. The poor adeptus is always brooding on his own and here comes his darling, bright and happy and just...perfect. They’re like a glimmering star in his murky darkness and he wants to treasure them. There’s no way he’s going to let go of the feeling he gets when he’s with them, nor is he going to let them leave his side.

It makes sense that Diluc would also be at the top of that list. He’s got the making of a yandere, especially considering all of the people he’s lost in his life. Now that he’s found someone so important to him, he can’t risk losing them. It would destroy him if he found out that his darling got hurt or was even killed because he wasn’t taking enough precautions to keep them safe. He’d definitely blame himself if something like that happened.

Childe, pspspspsp!!! The power this man holds... Omg he makes for such a terrifying yandere. On the outside, he seems warm and disarming—just your normal, happy-go-lucky kind of guy. He’s not dangerous at all! No way. But under all of that falsified charm is someone who knows how to pull strings. He’s a Fatui Harbinger, so of course he has the means of getting you wrapped around his finger. It’s not all that hard when he’s got money, power, and strength. Plus, when he wants something he’s not going to stop until he acquires it; Childe lives for the thrill of chasing after you and it’ll be even more fun once he catches you. Someone should send me more thoughts about yan!Childe!!! orz orz

Albedo also qualifies as a neat yandere! Something about yanderes who are into science is just...fascinating to me. It’s also cool because Albedo’s rumored to be a homunculus, so that adds to the intrigue! Albedo has the resources to get what he wants as well. It won’t be all that difficult, and if it proves to be challenging he can just think of other solutions to pacify his darling. He is a researcher, after all, and a good researcher seeks to find the best solution to a problem.

Razor would be a feral yandere. He’s more action than words. He doesn’t put much thought into what he does because it feels more like an instinct to him. He’s just protecting his Lupical. There’s nothing wrong with that! So why are you acting so difficult? D: 

Like you said, Venti’s not aware of his manipulation and he just does it because it works. His belief that everyone deserves freedom is probably what really holds him back. He doesn’t want you to feel caged, but that feeling is practically inevitable since he’s always hounding you. Venti is a very suffocating yandere and he doesn’t even realize it.

KAEYA! KAEYA! I love the idea of Kaeya having some sort of blackmail on you—something so bad that you absolutely can’t let the world see. And so he uses that to keep you quiet. If you did stumble upon one of his secrets, he can’t possibly have you running that pretty mouth of yours. But if you do end up spilling his secret, it’s only fair that he shares yours, right? An eye for an eye, as some would say. Kaeya’s very smooth and calculative when it comes to handling blackmail. Whenever it feels like you’re trying to one-up him and possibly escape, he’ll flirtatiously remind you of the power he holds over you. Blackmail is rather compelling, is it not?

Zhongli does have the motive to be a yandere, as you pointed out, but he’s a strange case. On one hand, it makes sense that he’d want to protect his beloved at all costs, but on the other he’d probably be aware of these unhealthy tendencies. Although he probably uses the idea of a contract to keep your relationship going, even if it’s clear you don’t want anything to do with him. But if you do, that just makes it easier on him! 

NO BECAUSE I THOUGHT THE SAME FOR CHONGYUN!!! Not the yan!Chongyun piece rotting in my drafts for a month or two now ehehee I had some thoughts about Chongyun but never bothered posting it for some reason. Anyways, I do think Chongyun has potential to be a yandere! As you mentioned, his congenital positivity can become an issue and he doesn’t want that to seriously affect his daily life. So he’s probably very pleased to find someone who can nullify that positivity. It’d be similar to Xiao’s case; Xiao likes someone who can be the light in his dark world. Chongyun falls for the person who can null his congenital positivity and is someone who he gets along with. 

The only way I can see Xingqiu being a yandere is if he wants a noble, storybook romance. Okay, that sounds strange, but consider it! He’s a huge bookworm who probably doesn’t exactly experience romance aside from what he reads in his novels. Although he doesn’t dabble in the romance genre all that often, he does like the idea of being a hero and sweeping someone off of their feet. So when he meets you—another fellow bookworm or maybe the two of you are thrown into an arranged marriage—he just feels an undeniable connection. This must be some form of fate or a sixth sense. Maybe he can be the main character of his own story! You’ll just have to cooperate and you can be the valiant knight’s love interest!

Bennett’s vibes are so nice. How could he be a yandere? He’s just too sweet and pure. He’s really just here to chill and gather an adventuring team full of great friends! But if anyone has any thoughts...please share them! 

That’s it. I’m writing about Scaramouche even though he’s not on the list. Please, why do I simp so much for him? Anyways, we don’t know nearly enough about Scaramouche to determine his backstory or past. But he just oozes yandere! Most of the Harbingers are probably the same, to some extent. He’s like Childe with all of the power and resources, but whereas Childe relishes in the chase Scaramouche refuses to put up with it. It’s just way too inconvenient for him. He’d rather catch you when you least expect it and then keep you for himself.

Gosh, he’s a very determined and possessive yandere with a strict agenda; this man probably cheats in order to get you. He’ll send his underlings to do the work in his place. They’ll stalk you and report back to him and it isn’t long before he learns of your friends, certain family members you’re close to, and even where you live. It’s terrifying, but this is Scaramouche we’re talking about. For someone so short, he sure knows how to intimidate and beat fear into those below him. Good luck to the poor soul who catches his eye. 

I must thank you for making that list! It was lots of fun to consider their mindsets and behaviors as yandere. :D

surprise breakfast

prompt; making breakfast when your two boyfriends are being needy is not an easy task.

pairings; tartaglia x kaeya x gn!reader

themes; modern au, polyam, fluff, suggestive themes, food mention.

wc; 2k

the sounds of running water stir you awake. drowsily, you blink the remaining sleep away from your eyes as you sit up with a stretch. you notice that the bed was surprisingly empty as you were used to waking up next to your boyfriends who were always ready to snuggle with you and convince you to sleep a little longer. you look towards the bathroom where the sound was coming from and you see steam escaping from the small gap at the bottom of the shut door. instead of waking you up, they must have decided to shower and leave you to get some extra shut-eye. it was such a sweet gesture to you since, lately, you haven’t been sleeping well, but now that you were awake you decide to return their kind gesture by making a surprise breakfast for the three of you. draping your legs over the side of the bed, you put on your slippers before heading to the kitchen.

you let out a small yawn as you turn the light on before grabbing a pan from the kitchen cabinet and placing it on the stovetop. you tap your foot while thinking about what to make - there were so many great options for breakfast: omelets, crepes, sunny-side-up eggs, waffles, bacon, oatmeal, your mouth was practically watering thinking about all the possibilities and, secretly, you wanted to eat it all. the shower shutting off causes you to come back to your senses. well, now that a surprise breakfast was out of the question since they’d definitely be done drying off and see what you were up to, you decide to let them choose what they want. to prepare for whatever they ask for, you begin to gather some bowls, plates, and other supplies while waiting for them.

as you grab a few extra utensils, you hear the two of them enter the kitchen. you turn around to face them, a spatula in hand, ready to grant their breakfast wishes. kaeya was, unsurprisingly, only wearing a towel around his waist while tartaglia - who was still dripping wet and hadn’t dried off properly, per usual - was dressed in just a plain shirt and underwear. “good morning! i was going to make you two a surprise breakfast, but you finished showering quicker than i thought; so instead, i was wondering if either of you have any requests for what you want to eat this morning?”

kaeya makes his request without missing a beat, “i just want the two of you for breakfast.” he wraps an arm around your waist and another arm around tartaglia’s waist before pulling you both closer to him. you grin from how cheeky he was being and from the morning kiss he gives you.

“that would be the sweetest breakfast imaginable.” tartaglia beams before also giving you a quick kiss on your cheek, but his kiss was a little wetter than kaeya’s, and you had to wipe some water droplets off your cheek.

while the request was cute, you wanted something more substantial than your boyfriends for breakfast since you were actually hungry. “c’mon, that might be too sweet for breakfast, let’s wait until dessert for that, alright? seriously now, what do you two want?”

“all we really want this morning is some hugs and kisses from you,” tartaglia dramatically pouts, “you went to bed so early last night and then we didn’t get to shower with you this morning since we wanted you to sleep in, but we just want the affection we missed out on while you were asleep.”

“aw,” you gush, his adorable words almost causing you to forgo cooking breakfast all together in favor of ordering if not for what kaeya says next.

“and, you know, maybe some pancakes alongside the hugs and kisses...” he ears a playful glare from tartaglia and a snicker from you. “what?” he scoffs, shrugging slightly, “i am actually hungry after the shower.”

“pancakes are simple enough! is that ok with you too, babe?” you ask tartaglia.

he turns his attention back to you with a wink, “you know me, i like any and all food - especially if you or kaeya makes it.”

with that confirmation, you begin gathering ingredients to make the batter. a couple of pancakes shared between the three of you with warm syrup slathered on top did indeed sound quite good for a lazy morning; but you decide to spice it up a little by using a large heart-shaped mold for the pancakes to cook in. as you place everything down on the countertop your apron suddenly gets wrapped around the front of you, “here,” kaeya says, tying it in the back, “you almost forgot your apron.”

“oh, thank you!” but soon after thanking him, you realize he had ulterior motives for doing so. after tying the article of clothing, his hands trace down your chest and stomach before gently grabbing your waist, pulling you back into his body for an embrace. he kisses the side of your neck as you relax into his comforting touch and the sweet scent of the shampoo he used earlier washes over you. you lean back into him, ready to close your eyes and let him carry you back to bed, but the grumbling of your stomach causes you to push that idea to the side, for now. “hey now, less seduction and more pancake preparation.”

“only you can make an apron look like a designer outfit,” tartaglia comments, adding a whistle at the end.

“well,” you mutter as kaeya lets you go from his embrace, “you two would look great in an apron, especially if that was the only thing you were wearing.” you chuckle, knowing you were adding fuel to the fire that was their neediness, but you just couldn’t help yourself.

“i mean,” tartaglia says as he tugs on kaeya’s towel, “one of us is already almost there.”

kaeya quickly grabs the hem of the towel to make sure it didn’t fall off from his tugging, a soft chuckle on his lips as he waved his finger, “nuh-uh, like they said, not until dessert time.”

while they continue to tease each other, you begin mixing the pancake batter together. while you combine the ingredients, some of the wet mixture splashes out of the bowl and gets on your apron and your face. before you can wipe it off you feel tartaglia gently take your chin into his hand, tilting your head upward to look at him, “here let me help you clean it off,” he then kisses you before licking the sweet batter off your cheeks. he clicks his tongue, “it tastes as good as you do.” you feel your face begin to turn red from his words. both of them were always so needy in the morning to the point you’d usually just order some breakfast to be delivered so you could stay in bed with them and enjoy some extra cuddles and kisses; in fact, sometimes the three of you would stay there until the afternoon - and you loved days like that. but, today, you were determined to get these special not-surprise pancakes finished for them, and their distractions were slowing you down. thus, with some reluctance, you nudge him away, turning back towards the stove and your mixture. you pour a little of the batter into the heart-shaped mold, the warm, melted butter sizzling underneath the batter. once the shape was set, you remove the mold and now it was time to wait for it to cook before flipping it over. you turn away from the stove, eyeing your boyfriends, who both had the widest grins on their faces knowing that now they would have your attention while the pancake cooks. you open your arms, ready for their hugs, giving them a playful little eye-roll when they practically drag you away from the stovetop so they could both hug you and each other at the same time with one on one side of you and the other on the other side of you.

“you know we can’t help but want your attention every morning,” tartaglia’s voice was muffled as he nuzzled his face into your hair.

“especially when you look so adorable every morning.” kaeya adds quickly.

“i know it’s a normal thing for you two, but can’t you wait until the food is ready? maybe get some affection from each other while i cook?” you ask, trying to find a happy medium between their neediness and your want to finish these pancakes in a timely manner.

they look at each other, small smiles on both their faces, “we shared plenty of kisses in the shower, we want some from you now.” kaeya replies.

“you can’t wait for the pancakes to be done first?” you question.

“but waiting is hard…” tartaglia pouts.

“you two are the reason why food delivery services love us.” you sneer.

the three of you stop your conversation suddenly upon smelling burnt food. you scamper out of their grasps and over to the pan. you grab the spatula and try to flip the heart-shaped pancake, but half of it sticks to the bottom of the pan and what you do manage to flip is dark brown to black on the other side. tartaglia and kaeya look at each other worriedly before slowly walking over to your side. you feel sad at seeing the broken, burnt remains of the heart-shaped pancake in front of you. kaeya turns the burner off while tartaglia takes the pan, heading to the sink to dispose of the mess.

an awkward silence falls over the three of you and kaeya scratches the back of his head before trying to make some small talk, “that pancake burned really quickly, huh?”

“i guess the pan was too hot and… i should’ve been watching it.” you sigh, rubbing your forehead upon feeling a small headache coming on.

tartaglia turns the sink off, picking up a towel to dry the pan off, “it’s not your fault that you weren’t watching it cook.” he says, trying to comfort you.

kaeya rubs your upper back, “yeah, it’s more our fault for distracting you. sorry about that.”

“yeah, i’m sorry too.” tartaglia adds, bringing the cleaned pan over to the stovetop.

you shake your head, “eh, it’s alright. you two were just trying - and succeeding - at being cute.” you lean into kaeya’s chest, muttering, “i’m not upset, just a little bummed that the first pancake i cooked in a while had to burn…”

“well,” tartagla places the pan back down, grabbing a little bit of butter and placing it in the pan while kaeya turns the burner back on, “there’s still plenty of pancake batter left, right?”

kaeya glances at the bowl, “yeah, enough to make a couple more.”

“then let’s redeem ourselves!” tartaglia says as the butter begins to melt and sizzle in the warm pan.

kaeya picks up the heart-shaped mold, placing it back into the pan, “yeah, and we’ll help you this time instead of distracting you.”

tartaglia gives you the bowl filled with the pancake batter, “and then after we enjoy our not-surprise pancakes together we can go and get our kisses and cuddles.” 

their enthusiasm uplifts your mood and your pour some more of the batter into the mold, “and without distraction, you should be able to get what you want sooner!” you put the bowl back onto the counter, crossing your arms with a sly smirk, “and maybe after we enjoy our pancakes, some ‘dessert’ for breakfast might be in order.”

Cry Out My Name (18+)

The weather had been nice for days. The sky was clear of clouds. The night sky was bright and full of stars. It was perfect. What was a more perfect way to spend part of the night than to stargaze? The kids were asleep, and they had time to themselves for once. Sure, there was a bit more wind than usual, but the temperature was just right with the breeze.

“Come on, Diluc,” Kaeya grinned, “Adelinde will take care of the kids if they wake up. You know Caelus only wakes up close to morning, and Dea sleeps all night. We have time,” he said. “It’ll be just you and me, looking up at the stars, no one to bother us.”

Diluc eyed his husband, “you want to go wandering around at night because you want to go stargazing?”

“When’s the last time you let yourself relax like this? Right, the answer is before Dea was born,” Kaeya replied, “It’s just one night, Luc.”

“One night that I could be blissfully asleep in my bed after a long day,” Diluc stated. “Does it have to be tonight, Kaeya?”

Kaeya pouted, “Please, Luc?”

He could see how Diluc frowned at him, how he was having trouble saying no to him. Diluc was trying to find a better excuse than “I’m tired”, but he couldn’t even do that because Kaeya knew. Kaeya knew Diluc loved the stars. He knew he loved to look up at them and maybe make a wish or two. He saw how the redhead struggled and then ultimately gave in with a “fine” and agreed to go.

“You’re going to take care of the kids in the morning,” Diluc told him as they were walking away from the manor.

“Of course,” Kaeya agreed, “I’ll get Dea bathed and dressed, then take him and Caelus down to the dining room for breakfast, all while you’re blissfully asleep.”

“If you even think about giving either of them wine again, I will drown you in the lake,” Diluc threatened him, “do you understand me?”

Kaeya gave a thumbs up, “Got it. Even though it was just one time.”

“One time too many,” Diluc snapped.

The cavalry captain chuckled, “I won’t let it happen again. You have my word. I’ll feed them pancakes and grape juice.”

Diluc huffed and took Kaeya’s hand, lacing their fingers as they walked. He was walking a bit quicker than Kaeya, practically dragging him along, not that the man minded. He enjoyed it when his husband was feisty like this. If only Diluc knew of his other intentions.

“Will here do?” Diluc asked, reaching a nice open area. “It’s still close to the house in case something happens.”

Kaeya frowned, “I was thinking somewhere a bit further,” he said, “Somewhere higher. Where we can see the stars more clearly and even the house.”

“Fine. Let’s go up to the cliff,” Diluc sighed.

The other man beamed, taking the lead. They passed the statue of Barbatos on the way, only stopping when they reached the end of the cliff. It was a beautiful view, and Kaeya could see Diluc visibly relax. He sat on the ground, legs apart and patted the grass in front of him. Diluc rolled his eyes but took the offer, settling between Kaeya’s legs, leaning his back against the man’s front. He let out a soft sigh, and Kaeya slipped his arms around Diluc’s waist.

“See? It’s a nice night. Peaceful. Just you, me, and the stars above,” Kaeya said.

“What have you got planned?” Diluc asked, jumping straight to the point.

Kaeya feigned offence, “Are you trying to say I have ulterior motives?”

The redhead huffed, “When don’t you?”

“Hmm,” Kaeya hummed, brushing Diluc’s hair out of the way, “at least you know the man you married,” he said as he placed a gentle kiss on the redhead’s neck.

Diluc shivered and leaned his head back, “You brought me out to stargaze. We’re going to stargaze.”

“For now,” Kaeya agreed, turning his eyes up to the sky.

It was a rather lovely night. The wind blew just enough to scatter the loose flower petals around. It was getting close to autumn now, so the trees were starting to shed their leaves. In a couple of months, the land would begin to look like the base of Dragonspine, and the kids would be able to play in the snow.

“Ah, a falling star,” Kaeya announced, pointing to a streak across the sky.

Diluc hummed softly. The thing he did when he was dozing. “Did you make a wish?”

Kaeya grinned, “I did; would you like to know what it was?”

“You’re not supposed to tell people your wishes. They won’t come true,” Diluc replied.

It was Kaeya’s turn to roll his eyes, “you know I don’t believe in those superstitions.”

“Yet you believe wishes on falling stars come true?” Dilu retorted.

“Not if you don’t make them come true,” Kaeya replied, “I wished for you to be happy and healthy and always to love me as much as I love you.”

Diluc swallowed. “You’re lying,” he said, “you didn’t wish for that.”

“No?” Kaeya smiled, “what makes you say that?”

“Because,” Diluc started, reaching up to caress Kaeya’s face, “I’ll never stop loving you no matter how much of an idiot you can be.”

“Aren’t you cute?” Kaeya replied, leaning down to catch Diluc’s lips.

The redhead’s movements were languid. He was more relaxed than he had been in days. Weeks even, if Kaeya was being honest. They hadn’t had a long moment to themselves since Dea was conceived. There was always something going on, whether with the Knights, the bar, or something with the winery. It was always something.

“Kaeya,” Diluc murmured, his hand tangling into the man’s hair, “stop holding back.”

The man hummed softly, “you don’t want me to hold back?” He asked against the other man’s lips, “I thought you were tired.”

Diluc tugged his hair, “I won’t be tired if you do something to wake me up.”

Kaeya hummed again, “alright, firefly. I’ll give you what you want.”

“You always do.”

He had Diluc turned around and in his lap in a flash, the man’s arms around his neck while Kaeya’s hands were splayed over Diluc’s hips. The kiss started hot, and it stayed hot. Their tongues swirling around one another. Kaeya nipped at Diluc’s bottom lip, and the redhead bit Kaeya’s in response. It wasn’t hard enough to break the skin, but it was enough to send a shockwave to Kaeya’s cock. The two hardly noticed when the wind picked up. They were too busy dry humping to really take note of it.

Diluc rocked his clothed ass over Kaeya’s lap, drawing a groan from the man. Kaeya stopped for a moment and then realised that they weren’t home. They were outside. There was no one around to bother them. No one around to hear them. No one around to stop them from fucking.

“Diluc,” Kaeya said, “I want to suck you off.”

“What are you waiting for then?” Diluc asked.

The redhead was pinned to the grass in a matter of moments, his pants being tugged down as he was bared to the world. Kaeya wasted no time taking Diluc’s cock in hand, stroking a few times before engulfing him with his mouth. Diluc tossed his head back and moaned loudly, finally realising he could be as loud as he wanted so far from their bedroom. Kaeya was far from sweet as he swallowed down Diluc’s cock. He knew every one of Diluc’s most sensitive places, and he worked them with his tongue relentlessly. He had his husband squirming beneath him in a matter of minutes, Diluc’s hands tangled in Kaeya’s hair.

Kaeya didn’t bother pulling away when Diluc came. He swallowed as much as he could before it leaked past his lips. Diluc was a panting mess, but Kaeya wasn’t done. He folded the redhead up, hooking his legs over his shoulders and dove in, pressing his tongue past the tight ring of muscle. Diluc gasped and cried out, not expecting his husband to be so bold. He really should’ve. Kaeya was relentless. His hand wrapped around Diluc’s cock once again, stroking him as he ate his ass. Diluc twitched and squirmed, overstimulated, having just cum.

“Kaeya,” Diluc panted, “Kaeya—ah,” he moaned again.

The man in question grinned, loving the sounds his lover was making. He could drink them up all day—and he has on several occasions. Diluc continued to moan and say his name, and each and every time sent a longing shock straight to Kaeya’s dick.

The redhead reached up, tugging on Kaeya’s hair, getting his attention enough to stop him, “Kaeya, please.”

“Please, what?” Kaeya asked, running his tongue over Diluc’s hole.

“Fuck me,” Diluc begged. “You’re taking too long.”

“Am I?” He chuckled.

Diluc grunted in frustration and wormed a hand between his legs, pressing a finger into himself, “I’ll do it myself then,” he stated.

Kaeya pulled back to watch for a moment. He watched at how Diluc pushed the digit as deeply as he could, pulled it out, then thrust it back in. The sounds coming from him. Oh, the sounds. Kaeya loved it. Diluc soon added a second finger, fingering himself open right in front of Kaeya’s face. It was a sight to see. The man ripped a moan from the redhead when he pressed his tongue between Diluc’s two fingers. The sound was muffled, though, when a clap of thunder sounded from above.

“K-Kaeya, we have to—ah—we have—stop,” Diluc attempted, but his fingers didn’t stop moving.

“It’s just a little water,” Kaeya replied, pulling Diluc’s fingers from his own ass, “are you really worried about getting rained on?”

The redhead grunted again as he was lowered to the ground, “I don’t care about the rain. Maybe it’ll wash the cum off your face.”

“You’re the one that put it there,” Kaeya smiled, reaching up to undo the collar of his shirt.

“Hurry up and strip,” Diluc ordered, “Or fuck me with your clothes on; I don’t care.”

Kaeya licked his lips, “you’re so feisty tonight,” he said, “I love it when you’re like this.”

Diluc narrowed his eyes at him, “then hurry up and give me what I want.”

“Whatever you say, Master Diluc,” Kaeya replied.

He forwent his shirt and moved to his belt, unbuckling it and letting it drop to the ground. His pants were next, but he didn’t strip. Diluc did say he didn’t care if he had his clothes on or not. He pulled his cock out and stroked a few times before positioning himself against Diluc’s ass. He waited for a moment, letting Diluc squirm below him. It wasn’t until a particularly loud roll of thunder that Kaeya pushed himself inside, flushing his hips against Diluc’s ass. The redhead cried out, trembling below him.

“Diluc, darling, did you just cum from me putting it in?” Kaeya grinned.

“S-shut up,” Diluc panted, “I wasn’t expecting you to do it so quickly.”

“That’s the fun part, though, isn’t it?” Kaeya teased, “you’re getting exactly what you wanted.”

The redhead’s words quickly devolved into filthy sounds as his husband began fucking into him. Diluc’s cries were lost in the rolls of thunder above them. Ever since Caelus was conceived, Diluc’s insides hadn’t been the same. The entrance to his womb never disappeared. That is, after all, how they ended up with Dea. With a slight change of position, Diluc came apart. Sure, they’d had sex without worrying about Diluc getting pregnant again. Kaeya had even fucked into the man’s womb several times before Dea was conceived, proving that it was going to take more than just his sperm to knock the man up.

“Ha—K-Kaeya,” Diluc moaned, nails digging into the flesh of the other man’s arms. “If you get me pregnant again—ah—I’ll hang you from the ban—ah—the bannister.”

Kaeya huffed and bucked forward, the tip of his cock slipping past the entrance to Diluc’s uterus, “we’ll name him something nice,” Kaeya argued, “besides, you love it when I fuck you here. Look at you. You’re a mess.”

Diluc was indeed a mess. His hair was all over the place. He was drooling. His eyes watered. It may have been dark, but Kaeya could still see the blush covering the exposed skin. He saw how Diluc’s toes curled with his thrusts, the sounds he made when he pushed his cock deeper inside him.

“We just—fuucck—we just had a baby,” Diluc gasped.

“What can I say? You’ve made me a family man.”

The rain wasn’t slow to start. It was a downpour in a matter of minutes. Kaeya still didn’t stop despite getting soaked. He continued fucking into his husband. Much like Diluc had predicted, the rain did indeed wash his face clean, but that was the least of his thoughts. Diluc’s cries grew louder as he bucked into him.

“Kaeya!” He moaned when Kaeya pressed a hand against Diluc’s lower abdomen, “fuck it feels so good.”

“I knew you enjoyed this,” Kaeya huffed, “I’m going to fill you up. Just like I did when I gave you Dea. You’d better start thinking of names.”

“It’s t-too soon for another,” Diluc complained, “but I want you t—ah—I want you to cum inside.”

Kaeya leaned down and sucked a dark mark on Diluc’s collarbone, “there’s no other place I would cum.”

The cavalry captain’s pace grew quicker. He didn’t even slow down when Diluc came a second time, the rain washing it away almost immediately. He kept going, overstimulating Diluc in the process. Kaeya was growing closer to his own orgasm. He could feel himself leaking inside of his lover. Before Diluc could form another coherent sentence, Kaeya bucked forward, so hard Diluc yelped, and he emptied himself inside him, rocking his hips through his orgasm.

“Kaeya,” Diluc panted, “Kaeya, Kaeya.”

“I’m right here,” the man replied, gathering Diluc in his arms to hold him close. “Don’t worry; I’m right here.”

It was calm for a moment. The two lost in their own ecstacies. When Kaeya started to pull out, Diluc hooked his legs around his waist, trapping him where he was, “if you move a single inch, I will bury you.”

Kaeya chuckled and placed a gentle kiss in Diluc’s jaw, “yeah, I can feel it,” he replied, “you’re not ready to let me go yet.” He placed a few more kisses along the redhead’s jaw before reaching his lips. He tangled their tongues together again, and when Diluc’s insides finally calmed down, he pulled carefully out. “Ah, look at you, you’re leaking.” He said, prodding at Diluc’s hole.

“I will kick you,” Diluc warned.

“Oh? I can’t finger fuck my cum out of you? It’ll be a long walk home if I don’t.”

Diluc grunted and huffed, spreading his legs wide after a moment, “Hurry up. I’m tired, and I want to get out of the rain.”

“Whatever you say, Master Diluc,” Kaeya replied, slipping his index and middle fingers into him.

The redhead squirmed, but Kaeya wasn’t having it. He held the man still as he worked his cum from his ass, watching as cum oozed from Diluc’s spent cock. It took some time, but after Kaeya had worked the majority of the mess out of the man, he pulled his fingers from him.

“Alright, firefly, let’s get you dressed,” Kaeya said, grabbing Diluc’s soaked pants and helping him into them.

“This is very uncomfortable,” Diluc stated, “my legs don’t want to work either.”

Kaeya chuckled, stuffing his cock away and fixing his pants. “I’ll carry you, then,” he said, standing from his spot on the ground.

“You don’t have a choice,” the redhead replied, frowning up at the man. “I thought we were going to admire the stars.”

“We did while they lasted,” Kaeya laughed, turning to let Diluc hook his arms over his shoulders. “and then we had a good, relaxing time.”

“A good, relaxing time?” Diluc complained, “What part of that was relaxing?”

“It was good, at least, wasn’t it?” Kaeya asked, knowing full well Diluc wasn’t close to being upset at him.

The redhead huffed, hiding his face in the other man’s  hair, “I don’t need to answer that.”

Kaeya hummed, hooking his arms beneath Diluc’s knees to hoist him into a comfortable position on his back, “You’re right. You don’t need to answer that. I know how much you love it when I fuck into your womb.”

Diluc tightened his hold around Kaeya’s shoulders, “shut up.”

“I do love the way you fall apart beneath me the moment my cock touches that spot,” Kaeya smiled, “The way you practically start screaming my name—ah, okay, okay, I’ll stop. It’s not my fault the thought gets you all hot and bothered again.” The redhead had sunk his teeth into Kaeya’s shoulder in annoyance.

The rain still wasn’t letting up as they made their way home from the cliff. The thunder rolled above them, but neither men were worried about it. It was only when the lightning started that Kaeya hurried his pace. Was he worried about getting struck? Not really, but there was that slight tingling in the back of his mind that whispered: “what if”. Yeah, he wasn’t having it. Diluc held on tightly to him as Kaeya started to jog.

“You’re an idiot,” Diluc scolded the man, “getting us caught out in this.”

Kaeya huffed, “It’s not like I can control the weather, Luc.”

The redhead huffed, “It’s still your fault.”

The other man rolled his eyes and turned his attention on getting home or… finding a dry play to sit to wait out the storm. The manor wasn’t far, but the rain made it seem further. By the time they got home, they were drenched. Not that they weren’t before. The second-floor balcony gave them much needed shelter from the raging storm above. Diluc didn’t look particularly pleased to be going into his house sopping wet. Kaeya wasn’t that excited about it either, but it was that or strip before going inside.

“What do you think, Luc? Strip down and hurry up to our room?” Kaeya suggested.

Diluc narrowed his eyes at him, but the man could see the wheels turning. He let out a gruff sigh as he started to pull his shirt off, only to freeze when the front door opened and who stood there but Adelinde. Her face wasn’t particularly pleased, nor did it show disappointment. Honestly, Kaeya swore she looked a bit… amused.

“Master Diluc, Master Kaeya,” she greeted, “I have fresh clothes ready for you. Come inside; you can change in the area I have prepared.”

Kaeya knew Diluc was going to give him hell for this later. They’d been caught outside in the rain. Then again, it could’ve been worse. Someone could’ve seen them in the middle of their fooling around. The two stepped inside and what awaited them were two separate partitions that made makeshift changing rooms. Diluc immediately disappeared into the nearest one, leaving Kaeya to the other. He stripped his clothes off, having to uncomfortably peel them from his skin since they were so wet. He placed his drenched clothes in the provided basket before he was handed a towel to dry off with. Once his body was dry, he dressed in the clothes that Adelinde had given him. He was greeted by bright blue eyes watching from the stairs upon stepping out.

“Caelus,” he said, calmly making his way over.

“Dea was crying,” Caelus told him, “Adelinde fed him, and he slept for a while, but he’s awake again.”

“Alright,” Kaeya smiled, ���I’ll get him.”

“Why did you go outside when it was going to rain?” Caelus asked, following his father up the stairs.

Kaeya looked down, seeing Diluc dry his hair with the towel after being dressed. The redhead shot a playful glare at him and smirked. It seemed Kaeya’s punishment started early.

“It wasn’t raining when we went out earlier,” Kaeya argued, “it was quite lovely, actually.”

“The wind was blowing harder than usual. That’s a sign of a storm coming. Don’t you know that?” Caelus frowned.

Kaeya had to admit; he was confused as to why Caelus ended up with a hydro vision. He showed all signs that he was affiliated with the wind, yet Venti swears he had nothing to do with it. Venti had drunkenly complained that the hydro archon got to Caelus first and that he should’ve given him one sooner.

“I suppose I’ll have to pay more attention next time,” Kaeya said.

“There won’t be a next time,” Diluc suddenly said from behind them.

Kaeya pouted, “Come on, Diluc. It wasn’t that bad.”

The way Diluc eyed him told Kaeya he was getting scolded when he got back to bed. However, he needed to tend to the baby for the time being. Caelus returned to his bedroom to sleep because he was “too old” to sleep in the same bed with his parents. Kaeya was amused by his words but accepted it nonetheless. Dae was sniffly and upset when Kaeya reached him, and he scooped him into his arms without a second thought.

“What’s the matter, Dea? Did the thunder wake you up?” Kaeya asked, rocking him back and forth, “let’s go join mom in bed, okay?”

Diluc watched Kaeya like a hawk, eyes narrowing when he made it to the bed.

“What’s with the dark stare?” Kaeya questioned, pulling the blanket back.

The redhead huffed and frowned at him, “more leaked out when I was changing.”

Kaeya smiled, “as deep as I fucked you, I’m not surprised. I’ll help you get the rest out in the morning before the kids wake up.”

Diluc sighed and climbed into bed, “If I get sick, you’re to blame.”

“If you get sick, I’ll take care of you,” Kaeya replied, settling Dea between them. The baby settled down now that his parents surrounded him. Diluc settled into bed and took one of Dea’s hands, holding onto it gently. Kaeya watched as his son calmed down further and started to drift back to sleep. “I’ll take care of all of you,” he promised suddenly.

“Stop being sappy and lay down. I’m tired,” Diluc said.

Kaeya smiled, leaned down to place a kiss on Dea’s head before catching Diluc’s lips in a chaste kiss, and then settled down, pulling the blanket over the three of them. It wasn’t five minutes later that their bedroom door opened, and Caelus slipped into bed with them. Kaeya moved back, giving him space to sleep in front of him.

“I thought you were too old to sleep in our bed?” Kaeya murmured, curling up with his son. Caelus grabbed his father’s forearm just in time for a loud crack of thunder to sound above. “There’s nothing to be afraid of,” Kaeya whispered, “I’ll never let anything happen to you, and neither would your mother.”

“It’ll be alright, little aster,” Diluc said softly, “we’ve got you now. Go back to sleep.”

Kaeya didn’t know how late it was, but he drifted to sleep curled up with his family.
