The Past, the Present, and All the Memories in Between by fi_niamh

Summary
“So it’s time travel?”
“No, not quite,” Albedo gently chews on his lower lip in contemplation on how to simplify the concept. “The Ley Lines hold memories of everything that has ever happened in the world. It appears that this Ley Line disorder has converged the past memories with our current memories.”
Kaeya cocks his head to the side, “So we’re currently in the past?”
“I suppose you could put it like that, but it’s more like our past and our present have collided.”
“So, time travel?”
Albedo sighs, “Sure, let’s call it that.”
A growing string of disappearing people, a catastrophic Ley Line disorder, a chaotic space and a convoluted Fatui plot throws much of Mondstadt into a not-so-distant past, surrounded by uncomfortably familiar faces.
Unfortunately for Kaeya, this means forgoing a much-needed vacation to figure out what is actually going on, which is quite difficult when a certain Inspector keeps getting in the way.
And all the while grappling with the presence of a boy who looks and sounds like Diluc, but is someone far different than the man that Diluc has become.
Gods, he could really go for a drink right about now.

Summary
“What made you think so?”And why would you care? It’s left unspoken but Diluc can hear the sentiment from the other’s somewhat incredulous tone.
His jaw clenches. Through gritted teeth, “Why else would you go to such lengths, covering your wings.”
And Kaeya likely knows what he means, but just wants to see if he’ll say it. It’s like they’re stuck in a standoff, the blue haired knight trying to pick and prod at him until he drops the issue and they can go back to pretending they’re just strangers with memories. And in just about any other situation, Diluc likely would’ve been fine with that. But the thought of someone having forced themselves onto his little brother makes him want to scream.

Summary
“I was to be the sword and shield. Protector of our people, inheritor to the legacy of a great nation. I took an oath to protect the people of Khaneri’ah and it is one that I will follow until I meet my very end.”
“What,” Kaeya laughs sarcastically, “You felt the need to protect Mondstadt’s resident hillichurl population from my inevitable wrath?”
There is not much remaining of the long acclaimed infamous Alberich clan, but what little remains of it is a tale for the ages. And as kind as it would be to take Kaeya’s confusion at face value, kindness is not a luxury Dainsleif can afford in times of war.
If only the Cavalry Captain didn't have the oh-so unfortunate habit of growing on every person who met him.
