Summary
But when recounting this dream to Kaeya he laughs. Not his airy nonchalant laughter, it is a bark filled with bitterness. Behind the closed doors of his office– an eyepatch in her hands– he tells her, "Never lay a hand on it. It ruins you, rips out every good thing about you and buries it at the bottom of a lake." Noelle had only stared with a doe-eyed fear. Never had she seen him speak with such malice before. Not even in frustration. However, whenever she thought of that dream, she thought of Kaeya's words.

Summary
‘Congratulations.’ Diluc said, a little more formal this time. ‘I’m happy for you.’
The two of them remained standing there awkwardly, unsure of what to do. Under normal circumstances, perhaps two brothers would hug, go for a drink, discuss wedding plans…
In their case however, Kaeya had no idea what “normal” was. Just a few months ago Diluc would have thrown flames in his particular direction and told him to get out.
And yet, Kaeya was about to test the waters even further with what he was about to request next.
(Screw that, he wasn’t just testing the waters, he was actively swan-diving towards his doom.)
‘I’d like you to be there—’ he started.
‘I’d like that.’ Diluc replied, not even allowing Kaeya to finish his sentence.
‘…as my best man.’
If the silence from before had been unbearable, this one was positively murderous. Kaeya could practically feel his soul leaving his body, floating all the way up to Celestia, only to be denied and thrown into the Abyss instead.
‘...Okay.’
