Nothing is more relaxing than spending time with you, Xiansheng. I rested. Promise. [ nuzzles into him. ] I had a great time on the beach.
All of the Harbingers have their quirks. Scaramouche is an asshole, but he's one of the few that would occasionally indulge me in a fight. I'll admit it was kind of fun seeing who could mess the other up bad enough to warrant a visit from Dottore. [ a laugh. ] But, mm, and she's 'no nonsense' and 'no fun'. [ another laugh! ] Just keep an eye on aibou for me. I can't imagine Scaramouche is going to be thrilled with him given some things that have transpired...
I'm afraid I have not had a chance to talk to the Traveler about their journey to Inazuma. And it did not come up before Aether lost his memories. Or rather - a new Aether arrived without memories.
...most of what happens in Inazuma stays in Inazuma. [ going to keep eating. ] Just keep an eye on him. You'll have a much easier time doing so than me, being on the same unit and all.
It’s hard not to enjoy the traveler’s company. But… I didn’t come here to spend all our time talking about them. [ he just wants to show off using his new chopsticks. ]
Watch this, Xiansheng. [ going to concentrate real hard as he grabs another piece of food. it’s obvious he might drop it, because his hand starts shaking, but he persevera and offers it to zhongli again. ] H- Here, Xiansheng.
[ Zhongli closes his mouth around the offered piece before Childe has a chance to drop it. He looks Childe up and down as he chews and swallows, running his tongue along his teeth after he does so. ]
[ childe can't help but to stare even as he attempts to grab another morsel. he fails though, dropping the bite and leaving his chopsticks to cross to make it impossible to fix without looking... for him, at least. he looks aside, clearing his throat, and laughing awkwardly as he attempts to do so. ]
[ there's no way in hell childe can stop him when he's chopstick tied, still trying to work out how to use these things as deftly as zhongli, which will likely never happen. ]
Dessert, hah, seems infinitely more appropriate. Don't eat too much then, Xiansheng. I want you to save room~
[ for some reason the subtle brushing of their fingers and the patience zhongli exhibits as he corrects his grip and lingers a bit to ensure he manages to feed himself has his face flushing and his heart fluttering… nevermind the words!!! ] Zhongli Xiansheng… [ he leans over to kiss his cheek, hesitating for a moment, but ultimately setting the chopsticks down to reach for his face, giving it a small turn, so he can kiss him properly. ]

[ And then a small smile ]
Your protectiveness of the Travelers is quite endearing. I am glad to see you rekindle that relationship.

I could be the meal instead then, Xiansheng...

However.
[ Zhongli dives in to steal a bite from Childe's plate with his own deft handling of chopsticks. ]
I was saving you for dessert.

[ As he reaches over to correct Childe's grip once again, letting his hand linger even after the food has been raised up to Childe's mouth. ]
I will always have room for you. And I will never have my fill of you.
So I believe I shall partake in as much as I like.
