So...

Ever since Weinlesefest (a.k.a. "for two years now"), my head simply can't stop coming up with new scenarios in which Diluc would use the mom-card to emotionally blackmail Kaeya into having dinner at the Winery...

Just a few examples:

Kaeya goes to the Winery somewhat close to dinner time to discuss some request from the Knights

Diluc: okay, I believe we can discuss the details over dinner and-

Kaeya: Diluc, I appreciate the offer, but it's not that important, we can talk about it quickly, and then I'll be out of your hair

Diluc: you don't want to have Adelinde’s food tonight? Then sure, I guess we can talk about it before dinner

(she's standing right there in the same room)

Diluc: so, I was thinking we could do something especial for Adelinde’s birthday next week

Kaeya (still unsure he's welcome at the Winery because he's emotionally dumb): oh, I'll be swamped with work, I'm not sure I'll be able to come over

Diluc: surely you can ask Jean for a day off. Unless you don't want to come over for Addie's birthday... I'm sure she'll understand when I tell her...

(And he’s so fucking proud of himself every single time because it always works, without fail)

ENGLISH DUB VENTI ACTUALLY SANG AT THE END OF WEINLESEFEST??

Edit: ah and it was improv too! From this video of Erika Harlacher talking about it in a stream

Kaeya visits the Dawn Winery... a lot.

He has multiple reasons and excuses that change every time he is greeted by Adelinde.

An investigation on the Darknight hero.

A mission he received from Jean.

A short detour from his patrols.

One time, all he did was ask for a glass of wine before he went his merry way.

Another, he spent a bit more time within the building, creating jam with Adelinde.

Diluc occasionally catches the man approaching the winery from a distance. If he was lucky enough to evade Kaeya's attention, he would send Adelinde to talk to the cavalry captain in his stead. As for the other times, Kaeya would glance up to meet his eyes from where the cavalry captain was standing by the entrance - thru his tinted windows somehow. The younger man's eyes would be glinting mischievously, his ever-present smirk slowly growing on his face.

"Gotcha," his face seemed to imply.

Diluc simply huffs in frustration before leaving his room to spend a couple of moments bantering with the other.

Diluc knows how frequent Kaeya's visits were. He fully expects at least 2 visits in a week...

...The idea that Kaeya frequently visits but never stays... leaves a bitter taste in Diluc's mouth.

Kaeya himself had said that Dawn Winery was his home. If he thought so, why was he always doling out excuses just to be here?

Doesn't Kaeya know he is welcome any time?

Does Kaeya know he could stay?

.

.

.

Like clockwork, Kaeya visits the Dawn Winery.

This time, Kaeya manages to meet his eyes- thru the tinted windows somehow.

Diluc huffs, leaves his room, and meets the other by the entrance.

Kaeya tries to give an excuse for his visit.

Diluc interrupts by saying "you don't need a reason to come home".

.

.

.

'Gotcha' Diluc thinks. He feels as if he won something upon being met by Kaeya's stunned face and hearing Adelinde's giggles at the background.

Incoming! Tactical hug!

Tactical may very well be the perfect way to describe it, for Diluc has long been stood in one spot, fully absorbed in a world of his own as he distanced himself from all of the noise and fanfare of yet another festival as it came and went, seeking a quiet place to escape to for just a few short hours.

It may well be a good opportunity to push a few extra sales and contribute to Mondstadt's culture, but that was a task better left to the staff in his employ: people who could adequately embody the sort of cheer appropriate for the occasion.

It's understandable that he's not expecting to be approached at all, nevermind by lithe arms that snake around his torso and hold firm. Eyelids flutter open to glance down at the sight before him: Venti, arms opened in an embrace that equally touches and bewilders the young Ragnvindr.

He feels ... not too unlike a warm breeze on a summer's day, and it comes as an unexpected comfort.

In that moment, it is enough to part the stormclouds that caused his brows to furrow and his shoulders to weigh so heavily with the guilt of feeling unable to fit in.

His expression quite visibly softens, strong arms enveloping the other's shorter frame as he lifts him upon the very tips of his toes, head bowed low to return that warm embrace with one of his own.

"Thank you, friend; I needed that."

tbh i think kaeya's "choice" mentioned in mona's voiceline for him isn't picking between mond and Khaenriah but rather whether he wants to follow the path set for him by fate (or by that "inept god" one could say) or not

[aromanticasterisms]

diluc standing directly in front of the fucking vase is killing me

[swirldmg]

venti cannot turn water into wine, but he did ferment apples as a wind spirit and led to mondstadt creating wine, so do with that information what you will..

“One day, a wily wind spirit noticed that the grossly negligent guard was once again being grossly negligent. So, the spirit took the form of a fox and crept into a pile of wild apples. There, it caused yeast to grow, ripening the apples and causing them to ferment. The grossly negligent guard was ravenous when he returned, and elected to partake of one of the apples. The mellow taste of fermented fruit delighted both his body and his mind. Immediately, he took animal hide and squeezed the juice from the apples, creating wine.” - a drunkards tale, vol. 4

mhy make florinel playable so i can design skins for him

[anemoi-i]

Venti’s poems are so fucking beautiful. You can't tell me this isn't one of his best:

This world has never seen such vibrant color,

It bestows upon everyone a brilliant hue.

A shade more ethereal than white,

Yet more radiant still than gold,

It eases into your eyes and restores to light a solitary soul.

Saw your post about your playlist and I just wanted to share I'm listening to soft universe by aurora on repeat and thinking about kaeya rn. Also I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed how he moved in that scene asgdjfk

SOFT UNIVERSE YES!!!!!

also, I've always enjoyed the way kaeya walks! He has a bit of a strut (very peacock of him)

but when he wears his skin? it's like they had to up his movement a bit or something (that or the pants are doing wonders) i swear there's jiggle physics to it now.
