tradgedy enjoyers when you look into the eyes of your worst enemy and can only see yourself
I say the apex doodle request and was thinking of maybe a nessie or lifelines drone (also I love the caustic you drew!)
aaaa tysm!! i wanted an excuse to also draw lifeline herself so here she is with doc + nessie :)
I don't know what Kaeya was like after his fight with Diluc but I would assume he was really messed up
I can imagine he probably found Jean first, unable to stay at the Winery and he was unsure where to go. Stumbling in the dark, soaked through with the rain. One hand is being used to stabilize himself on any surface he can touch to just not collapse and his other hand is clutching his brand new vision to his chest.
What a joke, to only survive, to get a vision when you are at your absolute lowest.
Jean of course would take Kaeya in, worried for her friend. A million questions race through her head as she struggles to get the boy to a seat. She's asking so many questions, what happened, why is he hurt, why didn't he go to the church, why didn't he go home, why is he alone, who did this. And Kaeya can't force himself to answer any of them.
He can barely stop shaking , either the aftermath of the events that just happened or how frozen to the bone he is from the rain.
He's injured, he's cold, he's terrified. And Jean helps him anyways, she tries her best to heal what she can, promising to call for a proper healer. She then finds dry clothes for him and only leaves for a moment for him to change.
When she returns she notices his vision, she asks him about it and for the first time since he arrived he speaks, "This saved my life.." and Jean is about to say thank Celestia for it but before the words can leave her he speaks once more, "What a cruel joke." He doesn't explain his words at her following questions, he goes silent once more. He's staring off as if he is mentally not there. Jean understands trauma responses, she's seen people like this a few times on the job. She never thought that she would see that look on Kaeyas face.
Her childhood friend has never looked this haunted before and it's almost enough to send chills down her back. So all she can do is talk to Kaeya, try and help him as much as she can.
In the next few days she notices how he only holds onto the vision loosely, as if he could care less if he lost it. He hardly glaces down at the thing, he doesn't want to look at it. She understands why he would treat it that way. He had told her about the fight with Diluc. She doesn't know why they fought, but she will be there for Kaeya first and Barbatos help Diluc if she is to see him at all within those first days after the fight because how could Diluc do this to his brother.
speaking of being adopted, you know what would solve all of Bennet’s problems? Meeting Itto
like from Bennett’s hangout we know that the only way to negate Benny’s curse is to ignore it, treat him just as your friend, include him without prejudice. only then you could get treasure
and like imagine if Itto, an orphan himself who was shunned by society and formed a “gang” that is actually just a found family of losers so they’d have each other to rely on, met Benny
who is another, smaller teenage orphan shunned by others for reasons out of his control and who takes care of his twenty elderly gay dads, but keeps a positive attitude and never gives up. whose only dream is to be included in a team
he would be adopted SO FAST asdfghjk. also Kuki would immediately be on board
and like Itto would have the exact right attitude to break the curse, he would never blame Benny for any misfortunes
like he would stand next to Benny and be struck by the lighting, and Bennet would be like “omg I’m so sorry thats my bad luck :( :( :(” and Itto would go “Nah bro, it has nothing to do with you, Raiden shogun has a beef with me, but she’s too much of a COWARD to meet me face to face”
Instagram almost flagged me for trying to say “they’re dumb as a bag of rocks” in my caption. Sad!
