And it must be your worst nightmare, having no real use.

[As biting as the words may be, Kaeya says them in that infuriatingly casual tone. Not taking it seriously, or purposefully trying to rile up Diluc?]

Oh, this sweet little thing? She wouldn't hurt a crystalfly.

[In her defense, Vulpix simply yawns and looks away. The Fletchling is hardly worth her effort.]

[dilusional]

[That's enough to press Diluc's lips into a thin line. Behind them, his teeth grit, and his jaw clenches.]

I trust that about as much as I trust you, Ser Alberich.

[frostgnawed]

[Naturally, Kaeya knows Diluc well enough to see the strain in his jaw. Unfortunately, he doesn't think getting into a fistfight within hours upon arrival will promote a useful image for him here, so for now, he leaves it at that, and gives another cheerful laugh.]

I suppose it's true I've hardly given you any reason to trust me. But spare my innocent little fox your wrath; she's done nothing to you.

[dilusional]

[Diluc doesn't say anything at first. Kaeya has a point; the fox hasn't done anything. But nevertheless, he puts a hand up to the bird on his shoulder and pats its head. As long as the fox is around, he'll need to keep an eye on it.]

If she's anything like you, then it's only a matter of time.

[frostgnawed]

[As it stands, the Vulpix decides to try her luck, stretching and walking casually over to Diluc. Just let her rub along his nice, black pants and get white fur on them. It's fine!

Kaeya watches on with that saccharine smile.]

Look at that! She likes you, Diluc. How can you be so cruel to that precious face?

[dilusional]

[The creature is cute. The fur is not. And since he's potentially worlds away from his butler, his service staff, and his wardrobe, he's more than a little miffed by it.

... But it's not her fault, at least.]

And how am I being cruel in this moment, anyway?

[He bends down, petting her a few times even as he tries to gently nudge her away from his pants. He pauses to grimace, though, as the bird hops from his shoulder into the mess of his hair.]

[frostgnawed]

[Okay, smart guy, she may have rubbed on you, but she never gave you permission to touch her. She leaps back and blows a puff of Powder Snow directly into Diluc's face with a cry! It may or may not also hit the bird in his hair. Her control is good enough that it isn't even as harmful as a blast of Kaeya's cryo, but the mere sight of it has him laughing gleefully anyway.]

Oh, isn't she delightful? Takes after her parent!

[dilusional]

[It isn't as bad as it could have been -- there isn't a painful elemental reaction as a result of the attack. But Diluc has never been a fan of the cold. He reels back -- unseating the already distressed bird. He wipes at his face frantically, while the Fletchling flaps around his head with distressed cries.

When both are finally settled enough to see straight, they both seem to be seething. Funny how they look alike.]

Hilarious. [And with nothing else good to say, he starts to stalk off in the opposite direction.]
