  1. Summary

    A post series AU that explores the lives of everyone after (most) of the events of ARC-V. The general idea is that everyone has their own bodies, and this is basically just a writing playground for me. Reira also did not become a baby.
    The split point is during the Zarc duel and uhhh I haven't really thought about it beyond that? This is just for fun.

    There will be shipping, bc the entire concept of this thing is self indulgent as hell.

    Summary

    “Don’t your feet hurt?” he asks, frowning as his touch flows over his metatarsals, expression exuding the same worry that followed him during their days at the orphanage, eyebrows uplifted in empathy. “You’re always running and landing so hard.”

    Nicholas shrugs. “I dunno. It’s fine.”

    Are you?”

    Summary

    Two weeks after Diluc's ninth birthday, his father, an ill-tempered man whom he has always been afraid of, arrives home with a strange, quiet boy, perhaps a year or two older than him. His skin is a warm, beautiful brown, his hair so black that it appears almost blue in the daylight, and he does not smile. “This is Kaeya,” his father tells him, brimming with adoration. "He will be staying with us from now on. Come and say hello."

    As they grow up, Diluc wonders why his father dotes on Kaeya, what it is about him that pacifies his rage, and how he can redeem himself to become worthy of such compassion. One night, after weathering two decades of his father's unrelenting wrath, Diluc returns home to find him dead in his living room, and embarks upon a journey of discovering the truth about his father, Kaeya, and himself, and how the two of them do not differ so much, after all.

    A story of dark secrets, trauma, and learning how to love.

    Summary

    "Yukkie, what do you think is a good time for a wedding?" Ruka asked.

    "…Huh?" Yuki uttered, too taken aback by the sudden question."W-Why are you asking me about that…?"

    "Hmm? We're going out so we can get married in the future, right? So I'm asking to know what you think about when the wedding should be," she said casually, and Yuki-

    Yuki wished something would knock out either of them.


    Yuki, Ruka, and a conversation about a certain proposal that neither of them can keep in their memories.
