But when Draff forgets to pick her up from the Cat's Tail at night while it's pouring rain, Diluc offers to let her stay with him in Angel's Share for the night so she isn't stuck outside in the rain all night. Diona reluctantly agrees and learns that the man she has been relentlessly hating for years isn't as evil as she thought he was.

--
“No, you don’t understand,” Diluc replies, “No one’s ever escaped him. He’ll come for me. I’ll be free just long enough to finally feel comfortable, to finally breathe and then he’ll come for me. I know it. I’m here on borrowed time. I’m always going to end up back there."
Kaeya bites back the sob expanding in his chest.
“Every time I hear a rustle outside, or someone knocks on the door unexpectedly, or I see a light on the road, I just know it’s him coming for me, and I can’t escape him, I can’t get away, I-”

OR: When Diluc's leg is injured during his Darknight Hero work, Jean forces him to stay at Kaeya's apartment while he recouperates. But Diluc's traumatized, anxious, and paranoid... and Kaeya manages to inadvertently play right into his fears.

Summary
Genius Invokation TCG. It was a fun new card game that Diluc had the absolute pleasure of hosting for the losers that couldn't play at Cat's Tail. It was all Kaeya's fault - like most things are.
Diluc sighed as he watched them play and they weren’t even playing it right. Like they had tossed all the rules in the air. It’s just a game. But still, couldn’t they at least try to play it correctly? They had made up their own rules and ideas and everything. It was annoying.
Oh well, at least the day was almost over.“Master Diluc! You’re fighting Kaeya right now!” the kids said with a smile.
“Diluc uses a phoenix wing flame attack one million!” the kid said, slamming the card onto the table.It's just a game. It's just a game.

Summary
Diluc didn't like parties. Everyone knew that. He just wasn't a people person. If he received an invite to a large event, such as a gala or a fundraiser, he would show his face for 15 minutes before silently leaving.
Yet here he was, standing in the corner of the Knight's ballroom with a glass of whiskey in his hand as he people-watched and listened to the music. Kaeya was making him stay, and if he didn't he would tell Adelinde, who had forced him to go.
───※ ·❆· ※───
Diluc goes to a winter ball being hosted at the Knights' headquarters and gets reminded of the events that happened on his 18th birthday. It only goes downhill from there. Kaeya and Jean try to help.

Summary
He was meant to be a hero. Instead, he became a broken masterpiece.
Diluc returns to Mondstadt shattered—body and mind twisted by a merciless, Unknown entity obsessed with him. His wounds heal, but the scars inside only deepen. When his fury explodes, the world mistakes it for passion—and one woman believes his pain is a secret love letter meant for her.
But behind closed doors, Diluc’s world is unraveling. Starved, haunted, slipping into a deathlike sleep that feels like vanishing, his only hope lies in Mizuki—an empath brave enough to dive into his shattered mind.
Inside, Mizuki finds no refuge—only a haunting dreamscape crumbling into darkness, guarded by something ancient and cruel, learning to turn his trauma into art.
In this twisted mindscape, trauma lives, breathes, and creates.
And Mizuki may not be here to save him—she might just be the next piece in its dark masterpiece.

Summary
Even now, that hasn't changed; Kaeya can see it, tonight, as Diluc works the bar and wipes at the various glasses, that something is off. Only now, he had about five more years worth of baggage and trauma weighing on his shoulders, threatening to crush him. Vennessa knows how Diluc's mind had been handling that — especially during the redhead's journey, likely completely alone.
. . . Kaeya really doesn't want to picture that.
OR; Diluc has a breakdown, and Kaeya is determined to pick up the pieces. However, Diluc is not the only one who desperately wishes to have his brother back.

Summary
And once again, off Kaeya goes, detailing the Spark Knight's newest adventures with the Knights. Diluc focuses on following him, not really paying attention to what Kaeya is saying, but much more on the idea of not having a mental breakdown in the middle of Windrise.
Not now. Not here — not where Kaeya could see.
He'd gotten through enough of those on his own, just as he deserved; he didn't need to drag Kaeya down towards his own demons. Not again.
OR; the demons that Diluc normally face alone rear their ugly heads while with Kaeya. Kaeya, understandably, is horrified that his older and ridiculously stubborn brother lives like this. Takes place directly after 5.6.

Whumptober 2024
Day 6 - Unhealthy coping mechanisms---
The Delusion had not been kind to Diluc's body.
It had caused nothing but destruction and death the three years he used it, and even when he stopped, it had left its mark. It had burned scars on his left arm and given him muscle spasms. It caused paranoia and panic attacks. As the Winery demanded more of him and his need to protect the city grew stronger, he became increasingly exhausted. The panic attacks went from once every other week to once every other day, and he was constantly distracted or on edge, unable to get work done. Adelinde noticed and forced him to see a psychiatrist and he was prescribed with medication to help.
He becomes reliant on it and runs out of it faster than he thought he would, leading to him having a panic attack at Angel's Share with no medicine to help him.

Day 4 - hallucinations---
It all started after Diluc had gotten hit in the head with a Hydro attack from an Abyss Lector. The next morning, his head was killing him, so he thought he possibly had a concussion, but then something weird happened.
"Diluc, can you come here for a moment?" Adelinde called, and he hummed, walking out of his room.
"Yes, Addie? Did you need need something?" Diluc said, looking over the railing. Adelinde walked out of the kitchen and looked up at him.
"I didn't say anything, Master Diluc," She said before returning to the kitchen. Diluc narrowed his eyes before stepping back into his room.
Strange.

Day 1 - panic attack---
Adelinde was leaving.
Not forever, no. Just for a week or two. She decided to visit her older sister, who had moved to Fontaine when she was younger and who she had just now reconnected with again after years of no contact. Elzer would be gone on a business trip to Liyue at the same time.
That meant Diluc would be alone in the Winery for the first time since returning home, which worried her immensely.

Prequel to my series "Dark Side of the Moon"
Diluc didn’t take good care of himself. He thought it was a waste of time, and he often denied himself any rest. Despite not taking care of himself, that doesn’t mean he wouldn’t take care of others. Jean is the same way, and he knows that, especially when he finds Jean asleep at her desk with a fever.
After making sure Jean didn't work herself to death, he tries to talk to Kaeya about his time away, but it goes horribly, horribly, wrong.

Summary
Diluc was never fearful.
He always took risks and never cared if he got hurt.
When he touched his jaw and saw the blood on his hand, his breathing picked up. He almost got hit in the neck.
He could’ve bled out. He could’ve died.
Diluc felt scared for the first time in a while.
