    Summary

    Something is spinning, spinning, in his stomach, in his head. It twists around his lungs until he can’t breathe.

    Albedo wonders what else he’d seen. If he’d looked past the concentration, past the supposed attractiveness, and into the core of his artistry. Albedo is a painter. Albedo is a mess, he is troubled, but above the surface, he is a painter—and he hopes that’s all there is to notice; he hopes that’s all Kaeya saw.

    five times albedo does kaeya’s nails, and the once that kaeya does his.

    Summary

    The human’s hand was warm. Warmer than Misurn remembered anyone’s hands being. He tried to think of his lover and recall the temperature of their skin, but the warmth seeping through his clothes and spreading throughout his chest was making it hard to recall. No one was as warm as Kabru—no Canaries, no elves.

    Summary

    “I suppose this is where we part,” Albedo says once they reach the fountain and come to a stop. “Thank you for the tea.”

    “Thank you for your company,” Kaeya returns with a soft smile. “You’re welcome to come over anytime. Klee, too. I mean it.”

    Albedo meets his gaze before ducking his head in a nod. “I’ll keep that in mind,” he says quietly. He carefully chooses to call the warmth blooming in his chest a result of being flattered by the statement, rather than anything else. “Goodbye for now, Captain.”

    “I think we’re close enough now that you can stop being so formal all the time,” Kaeya says airily, eye twinkling. “Use my name more. I like the way you make it sound.”

    He blinks in surprise, lips parting but no response coming out. Kaeya watches him for a minute before laughing lightly, raising a hand in a small wave. “I’ll see you later, Chief Alchemist.”

    Or, in a world where those recognized by Celestia are gifted with dragons instead of visions, Kaeya's tiny companion becomes oddly attached to the Knight of Favonius' Chief Alchemist.

    Eventually, her master does too.

    Summary

    On a pleasant afternoon in Mondstadt, Albedo returns from killing an identical version of himself, with shaking hands and last words he can't get out of his head: "What makes you so special?"

    After all, what kind of alchemist leaves a burning question unanswered? And what kind of alchemist is afraid of getting his hands dirty?

    or, albedo freaks out after the events of 2.3 and goes into a downward spiral involving questionable self-experimentation, a trail of burned relationships, and whole lot of identity crises

    Summary

    Two years ago, Albedo and Kaeya made a solemn pact with one another. If one of them should lose control and become a threat to Mondstandt, the other would stop them no matter the cost. Now that promise is put to the test, leaving them with a heartbreaking choice.
