Diligence

squints eyes.

hm?

You have work.

We already have enough of that.

You don't know what you're talking about.

I'm not.

They take me for fools, don't they?

🍂~ I LOVE THIS

// Headcanon, Sloth and Gluttony invented Uber Eats and pitched it to Diligence by telling them that people can have lunch delivered to their office so they can eat and work through their lunch break 🤣

🍂~ headcanon diligence secretly invests money to any of sloth's idea

Diligence reluctantly accepted the fate of the world once computers became a thing.

One must learn to adapt to new discoveries. Efficiency and accuracy is far more important than quantity.

"Sounds. . . like a good idea." He nods.

🍂~ thank you, king 😮‍💨

🍂~ DOES HE GET ANY PROFITS FOR THIS ??

🍂~ wei wuxian created smart watches

After his punishment, Diligence would have a daily tea routine.

He thought it would be a good idea to spend it with ( reader ).

🍂~ so shes @yearningfeather.bsky.social

planning on posting something for yuxi. u.u

"tell me, how does it feel like being a heaven's pet? do they give you a treat?" it felt like envy was talking to him through that brat.

"your eyes remind me of your mother," he would say while braiding her hair.

everything was perfect until she met that abomination. it was the last memory diligence was able to forcefully see.

his first and final experiment was a swan, li yuxi. she was everything he wanted in a daughter.

she had lavender hair and violet eyes. she walked gracefully, he didn't need to teach her etiquette. she was perfection.

she was everything that envy couldn't be.

but it wasn't enough. two useless sons, one couldn't properly kill his abomination. the other got killed before he could do his duty as a son.

fine, whatever. all he needed was to get a child again. he heard of animals shapeshifting into humans.

all is in the past. after all, they had twins after he was granted to hunt her down once they were running away from their responsibilities as a sin.

but it wasn't enough. two useless sons, one couldn't properly kill his abomination. the other got killed before he could do his duty as a son.

the night before envy's execution, envy laughed at him. "you can be the heaven's pet, not me." the envy that he know wouldn't have spoken to him like that.

they had nothing to lose. after miscarrying that revolting creature, they lost their sanity.

maybe, then... they would've gotten a beautiful daughter.

a beautiful daughter who would've gotten married to the offspring of spring and summer.

all the wives he all died by their own hands, but his father always had front row seat to their death.

when he executed envy, his father scolded him. "you should've allowed that brat to live. break the creature until it submits or it dies." he should've listened. he should've broke the leviathan.

as a child, his father taught him the phrase: "by any means necessary." if diligence were to be compared to his father, diligence would be a saint.

his father never held a sword, but his hands were still stained with blood.

🍂~ so i had this amazing idea of diligence taking in one of my ocs who i never gave a plot line to

. . . who sent him a goldfish?!

Gluttony. . .

Tsk. Do you think heaven will grant anyone a spot who hadn't suffered? It was only temporarily.

After the suffering, they would've went to heaven and enjoy the paradise. Your jiejie was weak and couldn't handle a small trial.

[ rubs his head. ] because i followed the heaven's will and your jiejie didn't.
