kaeya & rosaria take care of stray cats together. it was actually rosaria who roped kaeya into helping to begin with — or rather, kaeya was so absolutely positively whipped that when they found out rosaria was feeding the cats in her spare time, he absolutely had to join in and help her.
a gift for @cosmichorrorsarestillnicerthanme you really gave me a LOT of room to do whatever I want here lol... I hope I did a good job! I'm not really used to writing full fics like these, but I'm working on getting better at it!
it was for @2023gisecretsanta event!
Summary: A lot of things can change in one night. Rosaria goes from denying feelings for you, to planning a romantic trip.
Reader is: Gender neutral
Cw: Alcohol mention
“Kaeya, I already told you I don't have time for dates” Rosaria exclaimed, she and Kaeya were drinking together. Today he suddenly got into a teasing mood, although with Rosaria it's a dangerous territory the Cavalry Capitan can't pass the opportunity to see if his drinking buddy's face can turn red not due to alcohol.
“Aw come on, you're usually more fun” he chuckled as he looked into his glass admiring the liquid within.
“And you're usually less invasive” she tapped her fingers against the table, almost as if she's sending him a warning sign- which he ignored.
“Perhaps, but I think I'd just like to see you with someone” he smirked “Like for example, I heard Y/N is single”
If looks could kill, there would be a funeral soon. Kaeya could only feel a bit amused by her extreme reaction “Come on, I've seen how you look at them. I swear I saw you smile by a degree, which should earn them a medal honestly” he joked but he wasn't done “And besides, if it truly wasn't anything going on you wouldn't react in this way” he drank some of the wine while his smug smile remained.
Rosaria allowed herself to calm down before speaking “Well played” she sighed “But it's still far from your business” her gaze moved away from the man in front of her. Her attention went fully to her glass, maybe emptying it will make her sappy thoughts disappear. Just mentioning that name made her brain come up with some sweet ideas, and she didn't like how her heart fluttered at the thought of any of it becoming real. It was just so odd to imagine herself being vulnerable. Yes, a part of her somewhat wants to just allow herself to melt in your arms. But she won't allow herself to idolize you or believe that she's ready for romance. Admiring you from a distance is more than enough.
Rosaria continued to wonder and Kaeya didn't disturb her train of thought, finding the whole thing to be amusing, and worrying at the same time. While the Sister continues to lose her focus, the knight waved his hand at a familiar face, inviting them to join the table.
“Oh, Y/N what a coincidence that you can join us. We were just talking about you” those words snapped her back to reality “We were just talking how it's been a while since we drank together” she tried to deny him any way he could tease her. It's not the first time she needs to cut in before he tries to give you any weird ideas.
“It's still nice that you were thinking about me” usually, such a polite tone would make her annoyed. But it's you. It's always different when it's you. And she hates it. She doesn't want to have feelings for you, but she can't help it.
“We like your company, so it's not unusual for us to miss you” she tried to say as casually as she could “Due to your travels it's been a while since we spent some time together too” although it was undeniable that she usually missed you much more than the rest of the company by the table. And it was about time said company tries to force you to spend some time alone.
“Ah, how unfortunate. We won't be able to be in the full group. I'm afraid I need to get going” Kaeya stood up from his seat. He pats Rosaria’s shoulder before leaving, making her roll her eyes.
“What's up with him?”
“What isn't up with him?” she shrugged “Besides I think we have better things to talk about anyways” as much as she wasn't a fan of indulging in long conversations, it was different with you. It was more a matter of your company, but she liked it. Regardless if you sit in silence or share your thoughts, she could never get enough of you “Maybe you could tell me a little about your recent trip?”
As far as she was concerned, you had just returned from Inazuma. She heard that it was quite a beautiful place, not to mention they have quite the choice in alcohol… Which honestly got her tempted to visit but she just couldn't find an excuse to go yet.
“Oh right, Rosaria I have bought you some sake… but I didn't bring it with me here” it was understandable, after all who brings their own alcohol to the bar? Even if you don't plan on consuming it.
“It's the thought that counts. And hey, that'll give me an excuse to walk you back” she shrugged, masking how happy she is about the very idea… it's making her feel like some helplessly lovesick teen. It's dumb but… should she really be fighting her feelings still? Maybe that's dumber.
“Alright then, I certainly won't say no to spending more time with you” your sweet smile was like a curse that made her heart skip a beat. Although it was rather loud at Angel's Share at this hour, she feels like everything around you stops for a moment.
“So, are you going to tell me more about your trip or is only the alcohol making it a worthy visit?” she went back to the topic.
“I've ran into a few issues here and there, some of the procedures really got confusing… but I didn't get into any unwanted trouble”
“You say like there is wanted trouble”
“Definitely there is. I mean, what adventurer doesn't seek any thrills? If everything went smoothly all the time it would be boring”
“True, so tell me more about the wanted trouble then” she leaned closer as you got her full attention. It made you a little shy to be put in the spotlight, but it's not the first time you're talking about your adventures- so you got used to it.
As always when you spoke she could only pay attention to you. Nothing else mattered. Nothing else existed, it was just the two of you. Hearing your stories she felt happy for you, but at the same time she only wished she was there with you. From enjoying yourselves in hot springs, admiring fireworks to even just fighting by your side and protecting you. She could only imagine how better it would be to experience rather than hear about it. Only this time, she didn't push these thoughts away any further. Yes, she still wasn't going to make a move… but she won't fight her feelings.
“That all sounds great, maybe one day I'll tag along huh? I think it'll be better if I see your achievements with my own eyes” she wasn't exactly serious, as much as she wanted to mean it she knows that travels aren't on her list right now. To her surprise you were a bit more excited about the idea.
“That would be amazing!” you could already imagine it. You could see Rosaria pretty much anywhere in the world and she's fit in perfectly.
Seeing that fire in your eyes she chuckles “Remember, I said one day. Don't plan like we're heading out tomorrow” she crossed her arms.
“If I prepare a plan now we won't waste time preparing it later. Besides, I don't want to do the same trip twice, so I have to know what to avoid on my next departures” you explain, but honestly you were just so hyped about the idea of traveling with Rosaria that you needed everything ready now.
“Alright, if you say so”
You stayed up for a long time, chatting the night away as you discussed the possible adventure that awaits you. So as she walks you back home you give yourselves a moment of silence. It was peaceful, and not awkward. You don't remember the last time silence in her company didn't bring you comfort. It made both of you appreciate the moment more.
You'd ask her to stay a bit longer, but in the end you pass her the bottle along with a farewell “See you tomorrow, Rosaria”
“Goodnight Y/N” to fight her desire to stay with you she quickly ends your conversation as she walks away from your house, thinking when she should take her time off and just what kind of wanted trouble you'll find yourselves in soon…
They would have one thing in common and that's Razor. So Here is my theory bc im dying on this hill idc hyv
After the Weinlesefest event we get crumbs of everyone's deadbeat parents, Varka is to Razor and Rosaria a father figure and he knew Razor's parents who were adventures from Mondstadt.
How does Cyno fit here? weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeell I don't think they are bio related but since Cyno doesn't have any voicelines about his family lets assume its the same case as Rosaria, since Razor's parents are adventurers they probably went to Sumeru and met Cyno before Razor was born. Sounds like a stretch i know~
But listen Cyno and Razor's constellations are similar, and both have "spirit possession" as their kit. The other theory, that will make them brothers in canon, is if those spirits ARE the brothers. Its just kinda sus we get this even just as Cyno gets released, and it wasn't during Nilou's run as I thought they'd do but right after we met Cyno.
The issue here is that we have almost to nothing about this, and won't have more about Razor (i assume) until Varka gets back to Mondstadt whiiiiiiiiiiiiiiich I think will happen when we go to Fontaine which is through Mondstadt. Unless we get something from Cyno, eh we'll have to wait a long time🤷♀️
Ok so for now I'll treat this as an AU, I absolutely love it, Razor was one of my first units and Cyno is one of the newest so I'm happy to play with both and I hope y'all enjoy my silly AUs haha thanks for reading✨
