[Leaves on Read. Sorry Lumine, he is too flabbergasted to respond.]

[ It doesn't matter; she's having a good time. ]

Good afternoon, Kaeya. Remember my previous offer to watch me paint sometime. Well, if you are free, I am happy offer it today.

I am taking a day off of doing some of the quests.

If you are not available, we can find another time.

[icepatch]

Well, good afternoon to you, too, Albedo.

I am actually free! What time were you thinking?

[leucosis]

I'm hoping to go to the gardens in about two hours.

[ Not too much time so he doesn't get caught up in a several hour long task. As he does. ]

A bar in Nightwake City, late November...

[mayoninofukucho]

[About a week after Hijikata and Kaeya's last run-in, they happen to cross paths in Sunwaning (because of course Hijikata couldn't be arsed to follow up on their agreement with a phone call), and this time the samurai can't extricate himself with work excuses! (He doesn't really want to, either.) That same evening the two of them meet in a rustic bar in the city centre.]

I hope you brought a big wallet. Tonight's on you, after all.

[Honestly, Kaeya doesn't have to worry too much - Hijikata likes to drink, but he gets smashed relatively fast!]

[icepatch]

Ha, that depends entirely on you and how well you can hold your liqueur, my friend.

[He really didn't mind, though. Even if Nightwake's prices were a bit steeper than Sunwaning. Alas, he did owe Hijikata and he wasn't about to be stingy about it either. It was a massive appreciation what Hijikata did for a kid Kaeya.]

Now, let's see what they have here...

[They sat down at an empty table near the bar itself, and Kaeya perused the menu for a bit. While he was alright with beer and cocktails and whatnot, his main vice was wine. Once he found a good red wine, he decided to start with that.]

[mayoninofukucho]

[Hijikata is happy to order a bottle of wine to share with Kaeya. Back in Edo he almost always drinks sake, but his isekai adventures have helped him diversity his taste in alcohol!]

Well then, Cavalry Capain, how've you been? Did anything interesting happen to you lately?

[He really does want to hear about any quests or other adventures Kaeya has been on!]

gift; belated birthday.

[leucosis]

[ Albedo's gift comes in a medium sized boxed. It's neatly, but plainly, wrapped with a blue bow on top. On the inside is what seems to be a decent quality camera and all the essentials for it. There's also a neatly written note: ]

Happy Birthday, Kaeya -

I hope that this finds you well, and that you take the time to enjoy the freedom that art can bring to you. You have an eye for it.

- Albedo

Delivery

[saxsongs]

Kaeya will receive a present from Ren; it's three sets of different earrings. There's also some Christmas Cake with it.

The note says;

"Happy Holidays, Kaeya

I know it's been a while since we talked, but I wanted to get you something anyway. I hope you like them.

Sincerely,
Ren"

[leucosis]

Hello, Kaeya. The confessions happening anonymously has me thinking there is something I need to tell you. I think it is far too long overdue. And, so you don't get worried unnecessarily, it has to do with myself and my Master.

If you'd like to meet somewhere, there's a place that has some good sweets we can meet at.

[ Attached address. ]

[icepatch]

Do you? Alright, I will see you there. What time?

[leucosis]

I can meet you in two hours unless you're busy. I'll walk in with you.

[ Yay for make his own schedule. ]

[By now, Kaeya had grown used to the monthly involuntarily moonlight ritual that was changing into a gargoyle for a few days at night. He had gained enough control of the form that he was able to do it at will outside of the full moon as well and it certainly came in handy during particularly strenuous quests with difficult beasts to cull.

But, tonight was a night of monster hunting or anything of the like. The moon was waning and thus, Kaeya was released from the his stony form for the time being. It was always a little uncomfortable changing into and changing from a gargoyle. The sun was rising as the wings and tail shifted back into him, the muscles of his back rippling and stretching for a moment. His horns, fangs, and claws also retreated. As always, he wore a backless shirt to prevent unnecessary clothes destruction and the pants he wore sat dangerously low on his hips for his tail. It was necessary as he was not willing to constantly press holes into his trousers.

He sighed tiredly as he stretched, a thin sheen of sweat on his skin from the effort it took for the form to retreat. He ran his fingers through his long, dark blue hair and pulled the strands over his shoulder so he could begin rebraiding the lengths after they'd come undone during his night out. The sky was beginning to brighten as the sun continued to rise but Kaeya was feeling like he could use a nap. And a drink of water, maybe. Maybe cuddling with Diluc for a couple hours before the man had to get up for work would suffice for now? Decisions, decisions...]

[phoenixblessed]

[By now, Diluc has grown used to these nightly forays of Kaeya's and does not always wait up for him to get back, worried what he might be getting up to and what danger he might be putting himself in.

Still, with how lightly he sleeps, he almost always wakes up to the sound of Kaeya returning home no matter how quiet he might try to be. This morning is no different in that regard, as he slips out of bed and walks through the house hiding a yawn against the back of his hand.

Kaeya does cut a stunning figure. Always, but especially in that shirt. While the man fiddles with the end of his hair Diluc approaches him from behind and trails his fingertips up the bared dip of his partner's spine.]

Good morning.

[icepatch]

[Kaeya couldn't help but jump a little when he felt the warm fingertips of Diluc slide right up his back. Only a small gasp left him, but it turned into a huff as he tied off the end of his hair.]

Are you sure you never spent time training in Inazuma? You're too quiet, like their shinobi. [Even if he didn't turn around, there was a pout in his voice.] Good morning.

[Kaeya knew he almost always woke his partner up no matter how hard he tried to be quiet when returning. Normally, they ended up back in bed anyway. Kaeya for a nap and Diluc to get an hour or two extra of shut eye before whatever he wanted to do that day.]

Action; somewhere in Stormreach

[curuiosity]

[Something flies right by Kaeya. More accurately, it crashes right by Kaeya. And then it catches fire and explodes, sending little bits and bobs of machinery out in every direction. Its not the biggest explosion Rui's caused by far, but the fact that there was someone near it sends him running over.]

Sorry, sorry. Are you alright? The process of invention can sometimes get a bit exciting, can't it?

[icepatch]

[It was an automatic reaction that have Kaeya's Vision shield up all around it, the hexagonal pattern barely visible in its pale blue color. Still, Kaeya had his arms raised, ice sword in hand ready to catch whomever threw the unknown object and caused the explosion.

But, once he heard the youthful voice, genuinely apologetic, Kaeya sighed and willed the sword away. It faded away in icy mist, the Vision shield following soon after.]

I'm quite fine, but I would suggest testing... whatever that was, when there are less people around. Hm?

action-y.

[notgrande]

[ Venti appears when he hopes Kaeya will be home, and knocks. He wants to make sure he hand delivers the wine he picked up for his friend. Did he have a whole bottle of it before just so he could test it for quality? Absolutely.

It's not as good as Dandelion wine, of course, but it's nice and Venti hash zero complaints, so he hopes Kaeya feels the same.

He also wants to give Kaeya his birthday message in person and not leave a note. ]

[icepatch]

[Kaeya is home, indeed. He was actually making some dinner, so the smell of a creamy stew and cheese wafted out as he opened the door.]

Oh? Venti, to what do I owe the pleasure? Come on in.

[He wasn't done making the meal yet, so he couldn't let it simmer just yet.]

[notgrande]

Happy birthday!

[ He sniffs the air. He offers the bottle of wine towards him. It's a fruit forward red wine. It's unusual for him to offer a gift. He doesn't usually have money to spend on things, but being that he doesn't have to do traditional work, he does well. ]

I brought you something!

dated 30/11

[phoenixblessed]

[Diluc is up early, as usual, but he leaves a note for when Kaeya wakes up.]

Breakfast will be my treat. I'll be in the living room waiting.

Happy birthday. I love you.

[icepatch]

[Kaeya's sleepy brain was not working as he read the note. He was warm in the bed, he was sorely tempted to go back to sleep. But the temptation of breakfast was hard to resist.

His blearily eyes finally took in the time from the clock on the nightstand and he sighed deeply through his nose.

Soon, he was shuffling out into the living room, rubbing his eyes awake and keeping a hold of that note.]

Mornin'.

[Only Diluc knew how it took Kaeya a bit to fully wake up, his charisma stat at absolute zero for a bit.]

[rustyhonesty]

[They may not be that close, but Jean sends him a present anyway. It's a new bridle of rather high quality that Jean made himself, but also a bottle of kinetic sand as a joke, since he knows how much his horse loves to play in sand.]
