[ Not taking care of his own self sure is correct. There'd been a day Amos had spent chasing Kaeya around Springstar, just missing him until he had to yell at him in an alleyway that he wasn't mad at him, he wanted to make sure he's okay...

That had been months ago, but maybe with Diluc here things won't reach that point again. Or at least the number of people willing to bully Kaeya into loving himself some more will make it that much more difficult for him to refuse.

Diluc's turn from his brash self, someone guarded and possessive to someone more accepting takes Amos by surprise. He blinks — a little stupidly — at that softness of his voice, the thanks, before he offers up a small, barely there smile. ]

Yeah, I noticed he's not exactly the trusting type. [ A soft huff of a laugh before his own voice grows quieter, because this... really became a private conversation, didn't it. ] I'm glad he let me in, though. And I'll still be there when he needs someone.

[ A beat. ]

But I'm glad he has you too.

[ Diluc is so protective — so protective — that he figures: as long as he and Kaeya are on good terms after all, then things will be good. Maybe better than they were before for his friend. He really hopes that's the case — lest Diluc ever give him a cause to kill him.

Sometimes you're both just very normal about the people close to you, is all. ]
