Dropping this short preview real fast.

Preview:
It's not long before Diluc shows up, two-man standing behind him, sees Venti with wings and puts the pieces together. He's probably not able to glean all the information, but there are enough clues right in front of him that he is not happy. Waving over his men to take the Fatui captive, he crosses his arms and spends a moment looking over Venti. He doesn't say anything in classic Diluc fashion, but the fact that he was worried about Venti was heartwarming.
"Thank you, Master Diluc," Venti says, feet on the ground and bowing slightly.
After all, he was bothering Diluc in the middle of the night to help him take care of the Fatui.
And yet, Diluc looks pained at the thanks. He reminds Venti of the child, Diluc was, that made a similar face the one time he had bitten into a lemonโ
"Keep your thanks," Diluc says, and turns. "The Fatui aren't worth it." And then he walks away.
Venti waves bye and then pretends he doesn't notice his two new shadows following him.
Diluc was such a softy.
