Summary
Years after returning to Mondstadt, Diluc begins mentally preparing for travel to a place he once hoped he'd never see again, simply because Lumine and Paimon are headed there next.
Of course, Jean is completely against it, given his 'persona non grata' status. But she lets something slip through the cracks.
What Diluc starts to uncover from Jean and Kaeya is a tangled political mess of negotiations, countermeasures, and secrets surrounding his initial return to Mondstadt - all so profoundly ridiculous that it shouldn't make any sense.
But somehow, it does.

Summary
When Diluc receives a coded message from Nefer on the same day foreign diplomats arrive from Nod-Krai, the timing is too precise to be a coincidence. It's not long before he and Mondstadt’s leaders find themselves navigating a shifting landscape of diplomacy, with more questions than answers at every turn.

Duel of Frost and Flame by DarkLuminosity for Xylus

Summary
Kaeya thinks aloud to himself, clearly ignoring her again. "Hmm, why would you want his card? Perhaps..."
Eula furrows her brow, crossing her arms as she stands. "Don't get any ideas - I don't want his card. This is purely for vengeance." Her posture and words clearly remind Kaeya of the one she wants to duel. He tries his best not to laugh aloud at their resemblance.
"Right." Kaeya gives her a smug grin, resting his chin perfectly between interlocked hands. "You want to be able to look at him whenever you want, hmm?"
Eula uncrosses her arms and balls them into fists at her sides, stamping one foot down hard until the floor shakes. Kaeya feels the bluenette's icy wrath redirecting itself toward him.
"Ugh, as if!" she declares. "After I defeat him, I'm coming after you! Mark my words—"
=====
Alternatively: While on a quest to repay kindness with vengeance, the Spindrift Knight seeks out a certain redhead for a duel of Genius Invokation TCG.
It ends up being far more than she bargained for.

Summary
In a city where secrets are carried by the wind, it can be difficult to share tender, more intimate moments. Somehow, around Diluc's birthday, old memories and quiet gestures start to reveal themselves in unexpected ways. Some moments are tender, while others are deeply embarrassing and witnessed by accident… but all of them linger.

On Why Windblume & Alcohol Should Never Be Mixed by chaoticsnowflake, DarkLuminosity
Fandom 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
24 Sep 2025
Summary
It starts on a crisp Windblume evening in the Angel's Share—a triple date between Mondstadt's three most gossiped-about couples, a game of truth or dare, and more alcohol than is probably strictly necessary. Now, naturally, the combined presences of Kaeya Alberich and Lisa Minci already imply chaos from the outset, but you know what they say... the more, the merrier!
(Especially when alcohol and Diluc Ragnvindr are involved.)- Words:

Summary
And of all the things the gods could give him, they gave him grief.
Before they gave him vengeance. Before they gave him a Vision.
Before they gave him any say in the matter.In which inheritance ferments into grief, and no vintage survives the blood beneath it.
(or, the grapes grow bitter where the dead are buried.)

Summary
Kaveh’s throat clicks. “That’s not—don’t—don’t say that unless you mean it, Alhaitham, because I can’t take it if—if—”
“I do,” Alhaitham says. Simple. Unearned. Devastating. “You think I kiss people for rhetorical dominance?”
“I don’t know! You use footnotes in casual conversation! Your existence is already rhetorical!”
“Then let me make it clearer.” Alhaitham leans down. His voice drops like an anchor. “I have spent years listening to your tantrums, watching you build architectural models in your sleep, and pretending your towel slipping after the shower is accidental. I have listened to you scream at documentaries, watched you cry at soap operas, and paid your overdue rent twice without comment. If I wanted meaningless, I could’ve had it. But I want you.”
In which Alhaitham knows all of Kaveh’s tells, reads all his metaphors, and loves him anyway.

That Which We Cannot Speak Of by chaoticsnowflake
Fandoms: 原神 | Genshin Impact (Video Game)
26 Jan 2026

Summary
A moment passes between them—a comfortable silence, a mutual understanding, an acknowledgement of the passage of time. How time has changed them both, master and student. How the years have shaped them. Changed them too, as the cruel passage of time often does. How it brings them back together, still, even now.
"You know," Childe says finally, "you never did answer my question."
"Hm," is all Skirk has to say in response, picking up her guitar from her side and resting it in her lap. "I suppose I didn't."
"Well? Why are you here, then?"
Skirk laughs. "You never relent, do you?"
"Of course not," says Childe. "You taught me that."
Alternatively: It has been quite some time since Childe and Skirk last saw one another. When Childe finds her lingering outside the Fontaine Research Institute, a conversation comes to pass—one of life, of death, and of the fate of the world.
