Summary
The traveler is sitting on one of the bar stools, Paimon floating next to them. Kaeya can see the them moving their hands around animatedly as they recount the tales of their latest adventure, he bets. Most likely Inazuma. But what really sets him off is Diluc's smile. Diluc's hand seems to move in slow motion as he pats the traveler's head, and the traveler wears a proud look on their face.
Kaeya wants to throw up. He wants to stab himself, over and over until his body drains of his blood. He wants to drink something poisonous, feel it lace through and incinerate every vein and artery in his body. Archons, he wants to be anywhere but here right now.
Because that was the way Diluc looked at him when they were younger. When Kaeya learned something new in Mondstadtian and wanted to show it off to his big brother. When he finally learned how to ride a horse. When he could master the sword the way Diluc could master his claymore. It was Diluc and Kaeya, not anyone else.
Alternatively, Kaeya gets jealous.

Summary
"Ginkgos are so, so unutterably ancient that the entire class of bugs that pollinated their flowers no longer exist, nor do the creatures their fruits are designed for. They make do with wind and modern replacements, but everyone they developed alongside are long, long gone."
Kaeya feels a little bit like a ginkgo tree.
