[Diluc can't really argue Aether's logic. There's a certain strangeness to the whole situation that they're both going to have to navigate around, and he's at a disadvantage for not actually knowing him. But they'll get there. Somehow, he's certain of that much.
The way in which he almost instinctively looks for Paimon makes it clear that the fairy-like companion is as much Aether's in his Teyvat as she is to Lumine in his own. It wasn't meant to be a test, exactly, but it's another bit of support to the prevailing theory that everyone seems to have settled on.]
She certainly does have a way of making herself known at all times.
[Often at the expense of letting Lumine--and Aether, he's sure--speak up.]
I'm sure she's irreplaceable to you, but if there's anything I can do for you in her absence, please let me know.
