Summary
Albedo blinks back tears he cannot shed. He still doesn't understand. "Did I fail?”
"Oh, my dear Albedo…” Master softly murmurs. “That is not what I meant. You didn't fail because my ultimate assignment is not one you can fail.”
Her hands, the very same hands that once shaped him from a formless clump of coagulated chalk, cradle his face.
"Live, my little chalk prince," Master pleads. "That's all I ever wanted from you.”
Albedo finally looks up at an impossibly sad face.
"Live."
The corruption finally comes for Albedo. But instead of bringing about the homunculus' end, Albedo's friends and family join him on a desperate mission that involves the slumbering dragon Durin, Fatui Harbingers, and a revelation his heart may not be ready to accept.
[A fic about the lengths Albedo will go to protect Mondstadt and the lengths everyone else will go to protect him.]

Summary
Aether and Lumine fall to Teyvat at the same time and in different places. They don't speak the language, but that doesn't seem to stop them from making friends and acquaintances anyway.
Now they just need to find one another. Somehow.
This would be a lot easier if they could ask for directions.

Summary
Albedo rushes up to her, easily picking her up and heading towards her room. “Hey! No, let me go! Mister Swan said Kaeya was hurt!” She protests, and almost kicks at Albedo’s chest before he puts her down swiftly in the middle of her room.
Albedo runs a hand through her hair, and she can feel it shaking. “Stay here. I’ll be back for you in a bit, yeah? Just gotta take care of some things. Can you do that for me?”
“Okay.” Obviously, she's not going to do that for him. Klee is now on a quest to one, find kaeya and see what happened to him, two, fix him up, somehow. That's what a little sister should do for her big brother.

Alternatively, Kaeya gets stabbed, Klee thinks she's a god, which is definitely Venti's fault, Albedo is stressed but put together, and Diluc is in desperate need of therapy. Klee takes it upon herself as a god to see to it that Kaeya heals, her big brothers stay safe (and in love), and Diluc gets the help he desperately needs with working things out with Kaeya.
Oh, and Childe is there... for a bit.Series

Summary
A long time ago, it was decided that Kaeya's life does not belong to him but to Fate; there is nothing he can do to change its course. Which is the truth. However, even if he cannot change his own destiny and turn his curse into a blessing, there is nothing stopping him from weaving the fate in favor of the others.
However, he has made a grave mistake.
People's hearts are not cards, and they cannot be played forever — and just because Kaeya thought people are better off without him, doesn't mean that everyone involved agrees.

Summary
People keep coming up to Kaveh to congratulate him. Kaveh doesn’t really know why, and he’s a little too scared to ask at this point, so he heads back home, content if not a little bemused.
He is, unfortunately, reminded of it the very next day, when the door slams open and Al-Haitham stalks in. “Mind telling me why everyone was congratulating me today?” he demands. “About your pregnancy?"
Or: Al-Haitham is, without a doubt, the most annoying person Kaveh knows. Maybe the world’s second-most annoying person can help Kaveh figure him out.
