A lovely reminder on this fine Wednesday, before I head to bed, that:

Kaeya is the most important person in Diluc's life, regardless of how strained their relationship is. Diluc LOVES his baby brother and that will never change.

It isn't that Diluc doesn't WANT to apologize for what happened. It's that he genuinely believes he doesn't deserve Kaeya's forgiveness, and isn't sure he can handle the response SHOULD Kaeya turn him down.

He doesn't get the hints that Kaeya, actually, WANTS to be around him. That, despite there being a whole 'nother, reputable bar in Mondstadt, Kaeya still comes to the Angel's Share. Kaeya still exchanges WORDS with Diluc and still writes letters to him, despite how standoffish and distance Diluc tends to be. Kaeya is still PRESENT, and Diluc believes it's purely due to circumstance.

I shall reiterate from my many previous posts: It is NOT Kaeya's fault, and it is NOT Diluc's fault, what happened that night, and we will not accept any Kae or Luc slander on this blog. They both need to shut up and apologize, they were both wrong. Y'don't drop more horrible news on an already emotionally unstable, grieving man ( TIMING, people, TIMING ), and you don't lash out and try to kill your own brother, thus nearly ADDING to the needless death count, after receiving said bad news. Way better ways to have gone about that whole thing.

He would still give up everything to keep Kaeya safe. This includes his life, yes.

Diluc, ultimately, just wants Kaeya back in his life so he can be happy again... so BOTH of them can be happy. It doesn't matter who Diluc falls in love with, how his future turns out to be, whatever. If Kaeya ain't in it, there's no point. Someway, somehow. If he had the proper words to say all nice and beautifully written on a piece of parchment paper, he'd have sent it long ago, or even read it aloud to Kaeya . . . but he doesn't. It's the one time in his entire life where he's being a coward, and all the Mora in the world won't snag him a courage potion.

TL;DR: Diluc loves his baby brother, and wants, so desperately, to have him back.
