Day 38

[leaveofabsence]

[ Someone didn't show up for their normal food get-together.

So Childe gets a text. ]

Nian Gao 🔶: Cheri?
Nian Gao 🔶: You are usually not late.
Nian Gao 🔶: Did something come up?

Re: Day 38

[childeishly]

[ he is SUFFERING in his OWN ROOM. hears his phone go off and, shit, he... lost track of time. he grumbles and throws his head back into his pillow. he can't get to his phone, but perhaps his delusion can help. what if... smol zaps. ]

🍒: ov0iqvd ;grwjpt

Re: Day 38

[leaveofabsence]

Nian Gao 🔶: Cheri...?

Re: Day 38

[childeishly]

🍒: klv[ofb

[ this is not working!!! he's going to zap it a few more times and then a message comes up on zhongli's phone saying that cheri is suddenly "offline". ]

Day 41 early morning

[homicidalrage]

[ it is very early morning and someone is just coming into his room and sitting on his bed, with a tray of food ]

Good morning.

Re: Day 41 early morning

[childeishly]

[ he’s laying face down on the bed when five comes in and he doesn’t turn over when he fees it sink in or when spoken to. ]

...morning.

Re: Day 41 early morning

[homicidalrage]

And here I thought it'd be my turn to narrowly avoid getting stabbed.

[ he sets the tray aside, lays down next to him on his side ]

Should I have tried with a blowjob too?

Re: Day 41 early morning

[childeishly]

...who else is going to come in my room in the morning, mm? [ the blowjob comment just gets a bit of a laugh. ] I guess this means you owe me one.

Day 41 - Post arrival of the other Childe

[leaveofabsence]

Nian Gao 🔶: Cheri.
Nian Gao 🔶: I wish to speak to you if you have the presence for it.

Re: Day 41 - Post arrival of the other Childe

[childeishly]

[ a couple of hours of nothing and then it’s left on read for another few after that. finally, come evening he responds... ]

🍒; I can ooooooooooooonly imagine about what.

[leaveofabsence]

Nian Gao 🔶: Yes.
Nian Gao 🔶: I believe my intentions are very clear.
Nian Gao 🔶: May I come over?

[childeishly]

🍒; No.
🍒; I’m not home right now, but even if I were...
🍒; Why don’t you just say whatever you have to say here?

Day 46 bright and early

[cryovision]

[suddenly with no warning or context, you get a text]

Pavo Ocellus: I believe we have some things to discuss.

Re: Day 46 bright and early

[childeishly]

[ this sure is surprising. he doesn't respond for an hour or so, but eventually... ]

🍒: Where are we meeting?

Re: Day 46 bright and early

[cryovision]

Pavo Ocellus: The new forested area in the underneath park should be suitably out of the way of prying ears.

Re: Day 46 bright and early

[childeishly]

🍒: Alright. Be there eventually.

post elevator-- hell, probably one day after?

[circuitice]

[ well, he's a terrible goose, and he's out to make some terrible choices. he's looking for you, cheri, ]

Re: post elevator-- hell, probably one day after?

[childeishly]

[ he’s at the park, standing at the edge of a waterless lake. super sus. ]

[circuitice]

[ super sus.

and yet, ]

Cheri.

day 57, post game.

[childeishly]

[ cont. from here. ]

...losing steam? [ snorts. ] Pathetic. How about we go to where we had our last little... spat. [ the park. seems fitting, no? he's going to see if he can't slap kaeya with some hydro before turning into his element of choice and mcfucking off. come find him~. ]

Re: day 57, post game.

[circuitice]

[ if it even comes close to him, it turns to ice. he's furious.

and also trying to not undress him with his eyes, to be honest. ]

So you can drown me again?

Re: day 57, post game.

[childeishly]

[ all snow is going to hear is the echo of his obnoxious laughter. he's at the lake, standing out in the middle of it, because he doesn't abide by the laws of physics OR reality. fuck that shit. he's waiting though, impatiently! ]

forward dated: 58/59

[circuitice]

[ so, if he takes a couple of bottles of wine, and seats himself at the bar, maybe he'll eventually ... make his way to cupcake. maybe.

that, or he'll drink himself into a stupor, which honestly sounds good too. ]

Re: forward dated: 58/59

[childeishly]

[ childe feels like shit. he can't remember the last time he felt his bad... but here he is. that's what he gets for involving himself with an asshole like snow. whatever, he'll deal with that later. for now he's just trying to get his head together, which is easier said than done. he doesn't go inside the bar, but instead wanders right by it. everything is fuzzy and it's frustrating. is this what getting your soul ripped out and shoved back in feels like? 0/5 stars, would not recommend. ]

Re: forward dated: 58/59

[circuitice]

[ he catches sight of him— and sighs heavily, before getting up, pulling the one bottle that still has anything in it.

He does not want to talk to him and yet.

Out he goes. ]

Oh, look who’s back.
