I Need A Diluc In My Life :(

I need a Diluc in my life :(

💌 — ꒰ DILUC BEING A CARING BOYFRIEND ꒱

genre. fluff + mentions of drinking.

note. he is the sweetest grrr :( + reblogs are appreciated <3!!

if you ever come to visit or drink in the tavern and he’s behind the bar for that night, the corner of his eye will always be on you. watching out to make sure no drunken creep is making you uncomfortable.

he’ll always place his palm on your lower back to guide you inside a door, sometimes he’ll be comfortable enough to squeeze your hip too!

if you so happen to work for the knights he’ll miraculously find a way to stop by your place that night and inspect you for any possible injuries or bruises.

if you do have any injuries, he’s well versed in medical knowledge to help you out himself. but if you don’t want that, there’s always the option of letting him kiss anyplace you’ve been hurt. he will gladly do so.

he understands the need for personal space, it’s obvious there are times when you don’t want to be around him or speak to him and he’s fine with that!

his home is always your home! if you need a place to crash while coming home from a mission but you feel the city is to far? he’ll have a warm bath and bed ready for you the second you walk into his door.

he takes awhile to come around if i’m being honest, but once he does he’ll never doubt your loyalty or trust. he’s been hurt before by people he loves, so he makes sure to carefully choose who he let’s in now. and he chose you!

as a man who owns one of the biggest wine industries in teyvat, he’s seen his fair share of bad hangovers. so best believe he’s there with a warm plate of pancakes and a gallon of water and medicine at your disposal. obviously you’ll get a scolding afterwards.

he listens to you and gives the best consulting he can! whether it’s a personal issue or work related he loves you enough to give you his honest and straightforward opinion, he doesn’t want you to think he’ll sugarcoat anything just because you’re in a relationship.

i also think he encourages you a lot as well! from a small gift with a sweet letter attached telling you good luck, or silent hugs before you leave for something important. he always has your back no matter what!

overall diluc is a very sweet man! he might look rough around the edges but he’s a gentleman at heart, and he does his upmost best to honor and love you well! <3

POST PLUS IS COMING, WHETHER YOU WANT IT OR NOT!

Despite the fancy survey, changes to the UI and TOS reveal we’re getting the service in the future whether we want it or not. Obviously, Post+ is a terrible idea that is trying to bank revenue on user content. Unlike patreon or onlyfans, tumblr’s primary focus is on FAN content. The legality of this is NOT in the users favor and as the new tumblr TOS states, said users will be entirely liable for whatever legal matters arise.

SO WHAT ARE WE DOING?

Besides filling out the survey, it’s time to show tumblr we mean business and show our displeasure by hitting them where it hurts.

Ad revenue.

We’re proposing a 24 hour log off as phase one of this protest.

WHEN IS THE PROTEST?

AUGUST 6th, 2021        12 am Eastern Time (US)          5 am Greenwich Mean Time          6 am Central European Time          8 am Moscow Standard Time          1 pm Australian Western Time          2 pm Japan Standard Time          3:30 pm Australian Central Time          4 pm Australian Eastern Time

AUGUST 5th, 2021

11 pm Central Time (US)          10 pm Mountain Time (US)            9 pm Pacific Time (US)

THE END TIME IS 24 HOURS FROM START TIME!!!

So no posting, no queues, no likes, and no reblogs!

WHAT IF I CAN’T/WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?

Like this post and share it AS MANY TIMES AS POSSIBLE. Use the hashtags #tumblrlogoff2021 or #postplusprotest on ANY and ALL social media.

WILL THIS WORK?

Maybe, maybe not. It’s an attempt at doing SOMETHING.

BECAUSE I’M A TIRED IDIOT, USE THIS TO DOUBLE CHECK YOUR TIME ZONE!!!!

Event Time Announcer - Log off protest 2021

Event Time Announcer shows time for Log off protest 2021 in locations all over the world. In New York it happens on Friday, August 6, 2021 a

some very important info re: paid accounts~

I am not a lawyer, but I can decently interpret legalese and, being as I also suffer from tl;dr syndrome and assume others may as well, I took one for the team and went through the updated TOS for the post+ accounts and highlighted (what I understand to be) the most pertinent information, which ultimately comes down to this:

You cannot monetize copyrighted works (aka charge and earn money from fanfic, fanworks, etc) and if you do decide to put your fanworks behind a paywall via Tumblr, when you are inevitably sued, Tumblr will not protect you and will not defend you and you alone, personally, will be responsible for whatever monetary damages said lawsuit results in.

If anyone is a lawyer and knows I've gotten any of this wrong, please do not hesitate to correct me/this post.

Screenshots taken from Tumblr's TOS (updated 7-21-21), Stripe's Account Agreement, and the post+ FAQs.

1. Your paid account will not be hosted by tumblr; it is routed through a 3rd party.

2. By signing up for a paid account, you're entering into an agreement with Stripe, so in addition to Tumblr's TOS, you are also bound to Stripe's TOS.

3. Stripe, like Tumblr, will not defend you or protect you against any lawsuits.

4. Furthermore, you may end up owing Stripe money (indemnify = compensate)

5. Tumblr's TOS specifically states that you can't put any content on your post+ account that violates any laws, including laws that protect intellectual property rights of others. This is super important, because Tumblr's post+ FAQ also states that you can post anything that you would regularly post on tumblr, which I'm sure many will take to mean that gifsets, fanworks, etc are fair game, since all of that stuff can be posted on tumblr now. However, the difference is, you're not making money from the fanworks you're posting or reblogging now. Once money enters the equation, the game changes.

Tumblr is making it seem like any and all content goes for post+ accounts, knowing 90% of this site is fanworks. This is not true and you'll be opening yourself up for lawsuits if you charge for fanworks.

6. Tumblr further disclaims any and all liability in any legal issues.

tl;dr: Please do not make a post+ account, bc you will be opening yourself to lawsuits and if that happens, Tumblr's response will be not our problem, you agreed to all the terms which said you couldn't do that, sorry not sorry. Please protect yourself.

OKAY SCARAMOUCHE BRAIN ROT TIME ‼️‼️‼️‼️

worked up | scaramouche

pairing: scaramouche/reader

warnings: suggestive content + very high tension LOL

word count: 0.6k !!

note: i’m ashamed of myself. i obviously am not immune to the scaramouche agenda. inspired by those voicelines of his from the snippet in the 2.1 stream ^^

summary: business discussions involving the harbingers are never ones you look forward to, though he never requests anyone other than you, his “favorite business associate”.

equally intimidating glares are exchanged from across the room, his jarring eyes boring holes into yours as both of you refuse to look elsewhere.

“barely two words in, and you already look like you want me dead.”

he crosses his leg over his thigh, positioning his elbows on his chair’s armrests. his hands raise in a mocking shrug gesture, and a smirk begins to adorn his features. archons, he even sits regally.

you don’t respond. you’d be playing right into his trap if you had, and you definitely don’t aim to give him more to work with. his stare is infuriating — it’s as though he’s talking down to you without even opening his mouth, and you knew that’s exactly the kind of feeling he was hoping to garner from you. the harbinger is crafty, arguably one of the best at his game, but you’ve learned how he operates.

information is what he wanted, and having personally dealt with the likes of him before, he specifically cornered you in hopes of gaining his intel. you had no intention of relinquishing anything to him, however, which he clearly was working on altering.

chimes along with calculated steps sound among linoleum flooring as he approaches. you couldn’t remember if you’d seen him get up, but that doesn’t exactly matter. he can’t actually be attempting to size you up like this.

a cup of your cheeks snaps your attention forward. of course it’s none other than him, and the temerity of his narrowed eyes on your small forced pout almost sends you flying. your hand immediately flies to grab his wrist and pull him off you, but you pause.

his hold on you softens as does his expression. it’s in an instant that he goes from a fierce grasp to delicate fingers tracing your cheeks. they glide down steadily, like he’d been engraving the feeling of your skin along his fingertips. stopping right at the tip of your chin, he nudges your head upwards as he pistons it between his index finger and thumb. your hand is still wrapped around his wrist, though it’s gone partially limp as you seem to be practically hypnotized by his work.

you cease in following his movements and instead meet his eyes, inwardly gasping at how loving they appear. you look up at him from your sitting position with nothing but conflict. what a good actor. that’s all this was, after all. he’s coaxing you into lowering your guard by toying with you as though you were a puppet. he couldn’t possibly believe that this was working.

however, your hand has still yet to pull him away.

“if you’re aware i’m toying with you, why have you not pushed me off?”

you’d be convinced that you’d imagined that if he hadn’t spared your eyes the questioning glance accompanying it. for him to voice the exact thought that’s just ran through your head was already dizzying, and his next move only made everything incredibly more confusing to decipher.

his thumb prods at your bottom lip, lightly pushing it around before holding it down with the same intricacy so that your top teeth were barely visible. the act causes your heartbeat to quicken, whether it be in anger or due to being flustered is something you’re too frenzied to differentiate.

“look at you. you’re getting all worked up over nothing.”

you let out an aggrieved hum at the slow return of his teasing smirk, but when you finally move to yank his arm away, he’s quick to act.

inches apart are the two of you, his lips ghosting over yours as his opposite hand now rests behind your head. whatever “business” he’d originally come to conduct is long forgotten as your flushed lips collide. he moves with undeniable precision, as though he’d been anticipating this for a while, and though your mind runs rampant about colluding with an executive officer, all you can manage to do in the moment is pull him impossibly closer.
