𝐇𝐄 𝐇𝐀𝐃𝐍'𝐓 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐙𝐄𝐃 𝐇𝐄'𝐃 𝐁𝐄𝐄𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐎𝐁𝐕𝐈𝐎𝐔𝐒 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐒𝐎𝐌𝐄𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐂𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐋𝐘 𝐎𝐍 𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐃. He had been hoping none would be all the wiser, and yet…here he was. Being offered tea by Wriothesley. It's enough to bring him out of his thoughts, sapphires now meeting ice blues. He hadn't meant to concern the other….
❝ Ah…I'm good, Wriothesley, but thank you. You didn't have to. Also, weren't you about to be off somewhere? ❞
Also...sighs. I know that Varka does have a tendency to leave paperwork to Jean. Even Lohen has mentioned it. I don't think he's abusive to her, still. I do think he has a lack of tolerance for paperwork. And part of me wonders if that was because of the fact that he might find paperwork to be mindless and not distracting. Think about it: This man was ready to die, essentially. He technically was multitasking mentally, emotionally...and physically, carrying the soul of a god in his own body.
And now after that, while he's completely free from it--doesn't mean he didn't suffer mental damage from it all. For all we know, his mind still wonders a lot of 'what ifs' 'maybes' etc...
Does he sit down and handle his paperwork? Yeah-we see it in game and in his trailer / teaser. But when he can, he still goofs off a bit if he's able to.
That said....now that he's back in the office, I feel like Varka would fully see everything Jean is put through and he does try to take up the work he can. And also give that woman a break.
...Not gonna lie. I'm not surprised he's resistant to medicine....he can taste it, even in his alcoholic drinks. Though....hm. Thinking on it-that means he can't take pain killers or anything. Ouch.
...Though. Is Lohen's 'medcine' actual meds though.

That's a frown on his features--sapphires studying him for a moment.
❝ ....Do you want to talk about it, or do you just need to vent a bit? ❞ Varka didn't mind either way, but...seeing and hearing that--made him concerned.
His mirror was watching him closely it seemed. Of course he was. Even if it was himself – He cared. They were the same person – Yet not. There were different experiences that shaped them. So even as such… He would still care about his well being.
Curse himself for being so… Attentive to detail at times.
❝ You sure? I don't want to eat up your time if you need to get back to checking on someone. ❞
𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐁𝐋𝐎𝐍𝐃 𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐄𝐒 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐎𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐆𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐀𝐓 𝐇𝐈𝐌, 𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐃 𝐓𝐈𝐋𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐉𝐔𝐒𝐓 𝐀 𝐁𝐈𝐓 𝐀𝐓 𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐏𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐄 𝐓𝐎 𝐇𝐈𝐌. Eat up his time? He wasn't eating up his time--far from it. And…hell, he was curious. Plus, something wasn't leaving the grandmaster's mind. Something was wrong. And unfortunately for his mirror, as he knew, he's not the type to just leave it be.
❝ You aren't taking up my time. I have nothing planned tonight--hell, was just gonna be me and whatever glass I had. Seriously. Won't you stay for a bit? ❞
@boreaswind continued from x Eyes go from the ❛ suggestion ❜ to the grandmaster, before going back to the elephant in the room. What was going on, an onlooker might ask? Well. It was very simple. Varka, in all of his brilliance had decided to try his hand at mixology. Apparently it was a skill he had honed during his time in Nod-krai… So thus brought the two to where they are at the moment: Diluc being asked to sample one of his mixes.
❝ You know I don't drink. ❞
Now. Diluc supposed that WAS a lie – He did drink, but it wasn't like most of the people born && raised in Mondstadt. He didn't enjoy the taste of liquor && most of the specialties here were known for their kick && hardness. In private? He'd custom tailor his own drinks to be a lot less inebriating && also not have that dreadful aftertaste tannin brought to the flavor profile.
…However he couldn't ignore the fact that in front of him was clearly what looked to be something more in line with what he made himself. It was presented in a cocktail glass, the color suggesting a fruity palette. He was certain if he was to get close enough to it he could probably ascertain the ingredients from a sniff, but he wasn't going to give the grandmaster free hope that he would indulge what he was setting forth. After all… There shouldn't be anyone that knows his little secret.
…Except Kaeya && if Kaeya had told him… Well…
Shit.
𝐔𝐍𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐔𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐋𝐘 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐆𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐑, 𝐕𝐀𝐑𝐊𝐀 𝐊𝐍𝐄𝐖 𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐖𝐄𝐋𝐋 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐀 𝐋𝐈𝐄. He had intel--he wouldn't say where he got it. But he knew full well, the other was just bluffing. For now, he doesn't call it on him--yet. Instead, he smirks, arms crossed over his torso--sapphires meeting rubies.
❝ I know you don't. Buuut…we're in the privacy of my place, no one's coming over--and what's more, I think you might actually like this. Don't worry-nothing strong for once. ❞ It had a mix of the Sakura sake Flins and him had talked about before, with a few other things. It's light enough that no one would necessarily be knocked on their feet, nor will there be too many tannins. Varka, unfortunately, always missed the alcoholic content in the sake--perhaps due to his own nature and tolerance. But, because of that--he wondered if maybe Diluc might like it more.
❝ No fire-water. No hard liquor or anything. It is Sake, but…honestly, it's a lot lighter it feels like. Maybe tied with your famous wine, if that. C'mon-give it a try. ❞
“we’re not alone.”
@elegantserenity || prompt.
𝐈𝐓'𝐒 𝐀 𝐀 𝐐𝐔𝐈𝐄𝐓 𝐍𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓, 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐌𝐎𝐎𝐍 𝐇𝐈𝐆𝐇 𝐔𝐏 𝐈𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐊𝐘 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐑𝐄𝐅𝐋𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐎𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐁𝐄𝐀𝐔𝐓𝐈𝐅𝐔𝐋 𝐁𝐋𝐔𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐐𝐔𝐈𝐃 𝐈𝐍 𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐆𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐒. Sapphires move to the blue haired male across from him, pausing mid sip of his cocktail. He wasn't wrong-they weren't alone. It wasn't just him and him making business in this room…they were being ease dropped on. Why? Varka had a million guesses. Could be fans trying to gossip. Could be murderous intentions for the male across from him. Varka wouldn't stand for the latter, of course--not as his body guard.
❝ Hold that thought, sir. ❞ Comes the blond's response as he sets down his glass and stands--turning towards where the gaze was coming from. Ah. Yes. He could see them--easily so. In one moment, Varka's still in the room. In the next--he's right besides the person who had a rifle aimed right as Ayato's forehead. Unfortunately for the poor soul, survivors weren't permitted.
Varka comes back in what might have felt like hours, but truly was only ten minutes at best--seating himself back down and taking a sip of his drink. There's a confident smile on his features--sapphires eyeing the other.
❝ Sorry about that. Unwanted guests dealt with--did we want to move this elsewhere, sir? ❞
Eyes glance down at the other's left hand… The ring upon it. He had achieved happiness. Even if some of his lovers' ran… He had protected them. Mondstadt… Hell, TEYVAT still stood. Varka himself? He was a lone wolf without a home now. Even though this timeline was every bit of what he had tried to achieve…
That was his REFLECTION'S work. Not his own. In the end, everything had fallen apart && the former grandmaster had been powerless to stop it.
Fuck it hurt…
Now he had to figure out what to do here. There was no path home for there was no home. There was no place for him to go. He supposed after he closed this conversation he would take to isolation… Find someplace quiet so he wouldn't disturb life for his reflection.
❝ Yeah. Had a lot of time to perfect it during my stay there. Perfected it even more when I got back home. Arm still have trouble given we kind of fucked it up? ❞
𝐒𝐎𝐌𝐄𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐋𝐋 𝐃𝐈𝐃𝐍'𝐓 𝐒𝐈𝐓 𝐐𝐔𝐈𝐓𝐄 𝐑𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐌𝐈𝐑𝐑𝐎𝐑, 𝐁𝐔𝐓 𝐈𝐅 𝐇𝐄 𝐊𝐍𝐄𝐖 𝐇𝐈𝐌𝐒𝐄𝐋𝐅 𝐋𝐈𝐊𝐄 𝐇𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐈𝐃-𝐈𝐓 𝐖𝐀𝐒𝐍'𝐓 𝐆𝐎𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐓𝐎 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐄 𝐔𝐏 𝐘𝐄𝐓. But he noticed something just…wasn't quite there. The shine wasn't as bright in his mirror's gaze. His smile didn't reach where it should. Yet….the other wasn't going to say. Was he? Could he maybe force it? He wasn't sure. For once, he was uncertain.
❝ …Yeah. I'm still….getting beat on for that one. Don't think anyone's gonna forget it for a while. ❞ Though, he supposed he had that coming-they both did. Still…the mention of home…doesn't ring well in his ears, hearing it from him. At least, not in the way it should.
What the hell happened to him?
❝ Did you wanna order somethin', by the way? My treat. ❞
" Man. All we wanna do is love on those we care about.... Show them why they're so amazing && give them the love they deserve. "
A sigh leaves him, he leaning back more in the chair. At least this world's version of him had more things going for him... But that was a topic for another time. His other self didn't need to know about it.
" Did you get better at mixology? I've gotten quite handy with it. "
"Yeaahhh. One day, maybe."
Something felt...off about this whole thing. Things were calm and yet...there's an underlying layer.
"Still working on that. Learned a lot in Nod-krai, though....you too?"
WHAT DO YOU MEAN MY MIRROR'S FIRST THREAD ON BLOG IS AN ALT TIMELINE THAT STARTED OUT AS CRACK. WHAT THE FUCK.
" ...In my timeline mine avoided me like the plague. So lucky. Can't believe I'm jealous of myself. Actually... Most of the people I wanted to express myself towards were quite prone to avoiding me. Hm. Maybe I got the short end of the stick in that regard... Ah well. Good to know things are fine here. "
At least he seemed happy. That was good.
"...Ok. To be fair-it took me a while. I only got him to finally sit down with me because I cornered him. He still runs-other day I wanted to love on him and he decided to turn and go 'I shall go on patrol' or some shit."
He shakes his head.
"You and I are on the same with the rest. So...no. I think we're both just fucked there."
" Oh. Yeah. I remember that. Hey, so I have to ask, did you and Flins ever tie the knot or? "
There were so many variables... He could at least tell this was post Nod-krai adventures so... There was at least that.
"Oh you do? Well all right then that answers timeline for you at least--and yes. Yes we do, finally. In fact, it was recent."
Meanwhile, a fae...sneezes in the distance.
"What about you and yours? Also...how's the bard and Diluc?"
