somehow every time Diluc gets mentioned in your fanfic, the sky turns clearer, wars are over, and SexyBack starts playing. (I found a loving promise by desperately searching for a Diluc x Reader, turned out to be a ginger but not complaining...)
ahahahahha wrong shade of red-head
Mentioning Diluc always feels like mentioning that one person who got away and who you keep thinking about and yearning for even though you dont wanna admit it to yourself.
Don't worry poor diluc x reader fans... In another universe, Diluc and mc spend many more months and years working together in mondstadt and slowly but surely, he helps her relax and let go of Childe. They start dating in secrecy but everybody in mondstadt lowkey knows. Later, she moves to Dawn Winery and is loved by the staff who treat her like family. Frilly summer dresses, working at the bar with her hubby Diluc, joking with the knights, card games with Keaya who loves to attend dinner at the Dawn Winery just to make Diluc mad (reader always laughs at his jokes) are all part of a daily routine. There are many hand written letters for anniversaries and birthdays, days where she plants flowers around the winery, walks in the green fields, arm in arm with diluc, whilst picking berries...
She trains with the knights and Diluc stops minding it only after seeing how well the armor fits her (he blushes; everybody laughs at him but he doesn't actually care). Jean offers to officially dubb her a knight of the Favonious, she politely refuses, choosing to remain a trainee just so she can have animosity and more time to study alchemy after a shift in Angel's share with Diluc. He picks her up after classes when it rains, and holds an umbrella over her head even his side gets wet. On other days she walks with Kaeya cuz she insists on keeping his brother's girl safe. He's never seen Diluc so happy before.
and...
oh...
what a good illusion that was Diluc.
Its time to wake up now.
