[ as long as it's not like his mask since he's not interested in losing his dick... ] I think I can deal with it. Who hasn't been [ trails off. ] H- Hahaha.
[ clears his throat. ] ...horny. L- Look, we can talk about something else. I- in fact I wanted to, ah, talk about one of my other ‘corruptions’, the mask...
[ no, but having a conversation about being horny is somehow worse. he’ll figure that out somehow. ]
I don’t think the game was the sole source of my nightmares... the mask breaking seemed to make matters in my head worse. It might not have broken this time, but I’m sure it won’t be pretty when it does.
I think it's connected to how I'm feeling... mentally. If I remember right it started breaking apart when you fell from the ceiling following that one game, you know, with the rest of Heart...
It is not unknown to me that Heart has a certain reputation for self-sacrifice and not tending to ourselves. And I know that must be difficult for you.
But know that we are trying to make it through every game. And even on those occasions where we cannot---
Please look after yourself.
How cruel of them to place such a corruption on someone who feels as deeply as you do.
Wild City prioritizes itself, first and foremost, so you don't really have to worry about us or... me. If we can protect other units we generally talk among each other and go from there, so I intend to try when I can, but I can't promise I'll always be of use... [ and that bothers him. ]
Hah. Hell is a cruel place, as I've been told. [ said with a touch of sarcasm. ] I don't know for sure, but it seems like that's the case. I almost want to see what happens when it breaks, so I know, specifically, what to be wary of... [ though he's got a hunch, especially given the nightmares he had. ]
But... Xiansheng... [ sighs, combing his fingers through his hair and taking out his phone as fingers catch the edge of his mask. ] Here. [ he offers the phone and the entire golden house scene plays out, from when the traveler walks in up until childe summons osial and fucks off as a water sphere. i'm at work so i'll write this up later. ]
I think you'll be dealing with something like this.
[ Zhongli watches the memory with a blank expression. After all, this is what he wanted when he made the deal with the Tsaritsa in the first place. And Childe had performed his part admirably. What a stunning performance.

But regardless, it is just going to get worse if you leave it, yes?

Well.

Of course.
We can talk about the mask.

I need to show you something though, Xiansheng.

Childe. I no longer have the power of contracts here. Not as the god of contracts nor as just an adepti. Those powers have been stripped from me.
All I can offer you is my word.
