Glaze Lily: Please wait a moment.
Glaze Lily: I will get the door.

Ehe . . . well, as long as you don't mind~

[ rocking back and forth on his heels as he keeps both hands hidden behind his back. ]
[ What are they supposed to toast? Venti's unit got ker-murdered in the mystery house and then ker-murdered after it.
But he lifts his glass politely anyway. ]

[ It's fine, Venti's a professional. ]
To old friendships!
[ Said cheerfully as he bonks his glass against Zhongli's (mind the sloshing), then knocks it back. ]

Mmmmm. To quiet precious times that make everything worthwhile.
[ His nose wrinkles at the sloshed drink as he delicately sips at his own.
Oh.
It tastes just like he remembers. ]

[ He lights up when he sees him after opening the door ]
Greetings, Childe.
[ And then raises an eyebrow at him before stepping aside to let him in. ]
What brings you here today?

What a silly question. You, Xiansheng. [ he crosses the threshold and leans over to kiss zhongli's cheek, taking a bouquet of origami flowers in white, brown, black, and gold and handing it to zhongli. at the center is something that's supposed to look like a glaze lily, but clearly it's not as good as the others. he tried though! ]
This is for you.
This is for you.
I---
Oh.
[ And his expression goes incredibly fond as he takes the bouquet, fingers tracing over each petals as he inspects it. There's a slight curl to his smile as he touches the glaze lily, smoothing out the blue petals out of perfectionist habit as he looks back up at Childe. ]
This is very thoughtful, Childe. Thank you.
Ah, you're going to fill up my entire room within a few days at this rate.

[ Slumping against him. The euphoria of booze. ]
Ahhh~ So much better than the stuff they have around here.

I made it at one of Taisho's Lives. [ by stealing all the supplies and not actually participating in the live properly! y'know, #justchildethings. ] Much better than real flowers, since you don't have to worry about them dying.
[ laughs at that. ] As long as I'm simultaneously filling your heart then [ shrugs, strolling inside and heading toward zhongli's room. ] mission accomplished.

[ Following him while still refolding edges of the glaze lily. ]
Has anyone ever told you that you are positively shameless?

[ How to keep your Venti happy and healthy: liberally apply booze ]
Oh? What wares have you sampled thus far?

Would you like me to be shameless, Xiansheng, [ spins around as he hits zhongli's door. ] because... I can be shameless.
[ Zhongli's hand finds Childe's hip as he turns around and he leans in just a fraction. ]
I want nothing more than for you to be whatever you like, Tartaglia.
I want nothing more than for you to be whatever you like, Tartaglia.
...shameless it is. [ kisses him right in hss' hall and not caring who sees. ] I really like the way my name sounds coming from you, Zhongli Xiansheng.
More reds and whites than I care to name . . . of course, how can I expect anything to compare to Mondstadt's brews?
You always wear you warrior's pride.
[ Zhongli kisses Childe back, equally shameless as his hand shifts to press against the small of his back before finding the door knob and pushing it open. ]
I should not be surprised that you prefer this name over any other.

Did you get a chance to sample them again before you awoke here?
Of course! The current owner of Dawn Winery has really outdone himself with the dandelion wine -- it's the finest brew we've had in generations! Or maybe ever!
High praise, coming from you. I am glad you had the opportunity to greet your people after so long.
[ childe stumbles backward and falls on his ass, because, hey!, a little warning would have been nice. ]
[ it takes a lot to refrain from commenting about his given name, ajax, since he had been a heroic warrior. ]
...and maybe I just want Xiansheng to call me something no one else will.

[ Ah. That was not his intent.
He sets the bouquet down on a shelf so he can offer a hand to help Childe back up. ]

Ah, to think--- you bought me such a nice comfortable bed and yet here we are on the floor.
