I haven't looked for fic of them but thinking about it a little...

...it's not the "brothers" thing that'd stop me from shipping them. Despite that under all the prickly estrangement between them they obviously care about each other, I think I can't see them in like...a healthy loving romantic relationship. More like Kaeya knows exactly which buttons to push to needle Diluc until he loses his lineface and then there's some kind of angry fuckery that happens.

The new event gave us a lot of lore on them. I'm not even sure I like their letters being so friendly as I prefer me some more sweet sweet drama.

Here's a Kaeluc slash AU
https://archiveofourown.org/works/31069238
I just looked over my saved Genshin fics and found that it's mostly Chili with some Kaeya angst thrown in. I need more Diluc angst in my life.

The relationship works if you look at Diluc as a stoic macho man, similar to Diluc/Jean and Diluc/Reader versions of him we have all over AO3, with Kaeya a provoking scheming uke and Diluc an introverted grumpy seme.

I kind of see Kaeluc as that one ship that its most of its fans only ship to say "heehee im a problematic shipper!"

Not trying to knock anyones style but god I see absolutely no chemistry between them at all. It's like the safest "problematic" ship I can think of; they're not related enough to envoke the unholy rath of everyone on the internet (though even that seems a huge stretch), but they're related enough to still give you that taboo kick.

I mean, just because you don't see it doesn't mean people are only shipping it to be contrarian. Personally, I absolutely see the chemistry even though I don't actively ship it and seeing how much shit people get for shipping it, it's not even close to being the "safest problematic" ship. Have you seen the toxic crap antis fling at Kaeluc shippers? I assume not because otherwise you wouldn't even think of writing something like "they're not related enough to envoke the unholy rath of everyone on the internet". That's exactly the whole issue with the ship (and the incorrect English translation).

I don't think that's why Kaeluc in particular is popular, but I unironically love to see young fans ship things only because they're problematic! My friends and I did it all the time when we were younger, and now I can see that it was a safe way to have a rebellious teenage phase. I wish more young fans today would go back to doing that instead of trying to one-up each other having the most healthy and unproblematic ships.

This is late but I have to say that I unironically ship them. Kaeya is a flirty asshole and Diluc is a serious moody man with a dark past that barely says anything. Instant OTP
