you had always felt pushed to the side by everyone in the city, everyone but one. diluc. though you were new to mondstadt, he never seemed to mind your company and seemed to somewhat like you.

diluc was cleaning out glasses in the tavern once everyone went home, you were leaned up against the counter. he didn’t know if you were asleep or drunk, but he knew that once he had finished cleaning up, he’d walk you home.

“are you okay…?” he asked quietly, wanting to confirm if you were asleep or not.
