"This is Diluc. Leave a message."

Not my problem.

[Thankfully, it appeared that the door wasn’t locked when Kaeya arrived. He had a large water bottle in hand and some painkillers. He stepped inside and despite the lack of a mess or anything of the source, he did catch the scent of wine.

It seems Diluc wasn’t kidding. He rummaged through the cupboards to pour a tall glass of water and pulled out a couple of the pills. He made his way to Diluc bedroom and set both the glass and medicine on the table next to the bed.]


Up and at ‘em, Diluc. You need water and food to help with your hangover.

[He kept his voice low, at least, but he didn’t dare touch Diluc just yet.]

[He reached over to take his hand and place those pills in it. He held out the glass of water with the other one.]

Drink up.

And you’ll only get worse if you don’t actually keep yourself hydrated.

[It was alarming that one time too, it’s alarming now. But then Diluc continued and while Kaeya knew a part of it was just that the redhead was just miserable right now but it stung harder to hear it all the same. Because he was certain there was truth to it.]

Who knew you could break a deal so quick, but I guess I shouldn’t be surprised.

[He said it without much emotion, just a sigh. He straightened up.]

If you don’t want to actually do this, then you don’t have to.

[He snorted and held the water out now that Diluc was actually trying to sit up.]

You’re blaming me for something you did to yourself. This has nothing to do with trying to get out anything.

[His other hand pressed against Diluc’s temple, fingers pressing coldness against the skin to help with the pain.]

Drink the water. Small sips.

[Seriously, Diluc? That’s what this is about? He rolled his eyes, but he stayed where he was. He sat at the edge of the bed to save his back too.]

In case you hadn’t noticed, and I’ll forgive you considering you’re out of commission right now, but I have red in my hair that stubbornly refuses to leave. And what do you know, it matches the same hair color of a certain someone who is being stubborn at this very moment!

[He did noticed that it seemed to only stay when he was home. And knowing that apparently Diluc hadn’t left his apartment the last few days, it was easy to figure out it was proximity related. Proximity to a newly forged bond.

But he’d let Diluc figure that part out on his own.]


I was being serious, by the way. If you don’t want to do this, then just tell me. [His voice quieted a little as his eye shifted to the side.] I’d rather you didn’t get my hopes up.

[Kaeya wasn’t sure why Diluc was insisting he was trying to run away from this. He just didn’t want to be the one that drove Diluc to drink and potentially hurt himself because of him. And he didn’t even really understand why Diluc drank in the first place.]

You’re infuriating, I hope you know that.

[He moved his hand from Diluc temple to his forehead, gently prying his hand away. His other hand slid under the now slightly two-toned hair to press another cool hand to the back of his head and neck.]

I’m not running away, you’re just being an ass. Stop blaming me and let me help you, then.

[Kaeya only met that slanted gaze with one of his own, suitably not impressed. But he kept quiet and was silently thankful that Diluc was at least amenable to the cryo magic even if it meant getting into his personal space.

Ah. Well, he supposed he could understand that. It wouldn’t be the first time Kaeya drank to numb his emotions. He shook his head lightly.]


Heh, didn’t think I’d be such a bad influence on you. But I think I’ll take the rest your wine so you don’t have try this again, hm?

[Diluc was worse than a lightweight.

He nodded to the pills still in Diluc’s hand.]


Seems like you can handle the water, try taking the medicine. The cryo is only going to help for so long and I need my hands if I’m going to help you through the hangover.

[He couldn’t help the quiet chuckle, but he made no move to remove his hands for now. It was actually really nice to do something for Diluc and not have it have some kind of ulterior motive or something. He chanced a small massage just at the base of his skull.]

I’ll stay here if you want but you will need to eat something eventually. And you’ll run out of water. I can wait until the medicine kicks in though.

[He really wasn’t in much of hurry. He would do as much as Diluc allowed, although Kaeya wasn’t known for being subservient either so depending on how stubborn Diluc got, Kaeya would do his best to not push too much.]

[He counted it as a small victory that Diluc had yet to shove his hand away. The sound he made drew another laugh though. At least it was working.]

Doesn’t take a genius to figure out something was wrong, Diluc. I’m sure no one would have believed you, let alone me.

[He supposed he could appreciate that Diluc didn’t try to deflect, as passive-aggressive as it was. With a soft sound of his own, he gently urged Diluc to lay back against the pillows.]

I’ll get some ice, you try and sleep a little more and hopefully I’ll have a meal ready for you when the medicine has helped. Sounds okay?

[Kaeya was only mildly surprised that Diluc fell asleep so quickly after that. But once it seemed Diluc was going to be out at least for a little bit, Kaeya decided to make due on his word and make something that would hopefully be easy enough on Diluc’s stomach. After finding a towel and wrapping up some cryo made ice into it, he carefully tucked it between Diluc’s neck at the pillow. It’ll only last so long with the redhead’s pyro Vision but it should be enough to allow him to rest and give the medicine a head start.

By the time Diluc woke up, the impromptu ice pack was gone but there were traces of cold. Kaeya, much like when figuring out dinner the other day, couldn’t decide what to make. At least the list of choices was small so he settled on making a few things. Miso soup was kept heated in a pot on the stove, there was the sizzle of a pan as he rolled some eggs in the square pan, and he had some white rice on another part of the stove.

It really didn’t take much than a few inquiries from the vendors nearby and even less to make these particular dishes.]


In the kitchen, think you can make it out here?

[Kaeya was plating the eggs when Diluc finally came into the kitchen. He looked like a mess, and Kaeya almost pointed this out but managed to bite his lip just in time. Now wasn’t the time to provoke.

As much as he really wanted to.

Instead, he simply gave a slight grin and nodded to the kitchen table.]


Hey. You should take a seat before you keel over. How’s the headache?

[This was incredibly surreal and still a bit mind boggling. He was cooking for Diluc again, this time in Diluc’s kitchen, and he was taking care of the poor guy. Again. He really hoped this wasn’t going to be a habit.

Nonetheless, he grabbed a few small bowls and plates and set the food down in small portions.]


You’ve got good timing. Wasn’t sure what you could handle so I made a few things for you to pick at.

[He knew he might be overdoing it. But while it had been a long time since Kaeya had ever gotten so hungover he was genuinely sick like Diluc felt, he also knew that having someone to look after him would have been nice. As it stands, Kaeya usually had no one but himself. He wasn't sure why he even felt like he should go this far, it wasn't like Diluc also didn't have the staff back home but he was also certain Diluc wouldn't be drinking back home because this wouldn't have happened.

Maybe it was partially his fault then, that Diluc was like this. So, why not help him out? He seemed willing to accept it still.]


I already ate, so don't worry about it. Besides, you'll have leftovers which makes it easier for when you get hungry later.

[He hadn't actually eaten, but he also wasn't hungry. So, he was fine with this.]

[Kaeya was surprised at the request. But after doing a quick clean up and grabbing himself a glass of juice (thank god it wasn't grape), Kaeya did just that. He nursed the cup in his hand.]

So... you never did answer my question. Did the medicine help your headache at all? Seems like you were able to keep it down too.

[He knew it likely wouldn't go away right now. But he had hoped it was manageable. Food and more water should help with the rest, assuming his stomach wasn't going to rebel anymore.]
