I feel the same thing. Then isn't it fine if we just enjoy each other like this for now?

...yeah, that's fine. [ going to keep his arms around him as they shower, eventually letting go to step out and shake off. ]

[ he'll follow shortly after, and reach for his hand ]

And maybe if you decide to leave me I can just steal you away.

[ squeezes his hand. ] Who'd complain about getting stolen by somebody so cute, mm? [ but he wouldn't want the both of them to kill each other. too bad he couldn't split himself in two. both scara's deserve to be happy. ]

[ he'll tug him down for a quick kiss ]

I'll take that as permission.

[ smirks, ] Never did I ever think I would have people fighting over me. [ ... ] Do you think you could ever get along with him? [ tsukiakari. ] You get along with Arcane Lord. [ or whatever his full title is.

[ oh that's a tricky question ... ]

...They're probably quite similar. You said he became a god too.

No doubt I'm biased, but I feel like Tsukiakari is more agreeable. Especially since he had spent a lot more time in Tokyo-F, among other units, and been humbled by all the bullshit we had to endure. We also didn't have access to our powers, which leveled the playing field, ...

... Mm. Whether I'd get along with him or not depends on him.

But it's different with Haruki - he isn't in love with you.

...true. [ he keeps a hold of his hand and drags him to the bedroom. he grabs another shirt and passes it to him. he's just going to slip into a pair of boxers. fuck clothes. ] Funny how love just kind of... comes out of nowhere. Blindsides you. What a pain, right? [ laughs and drops onto the bed. ]

... Mm. I don't know. I've never been in love.

[ is that true or a lie? who knows ]

[ hmmm. ] How about you let me take you on a date? But we do it in a dream, so we can go just about anywhere.

Trying to woo me...? All right. I'll let you take care of it.

Maybe I just want to see you smile more. And I owe you for being a dick earlier.

Ah ... then you have to make sure it'll be a really good date. It's our first real one.

Mm. Im not going to disappoint. Especially not in a dream.

[ he's going to tug him right back to bed then, going to lay down ]

Let's see what you're capable of.

[ as the both of them fall asleep childe starts manipulating the dream - sending them back home, to teyvat, and stepping into the windblume festival in mondstadt. there are all sorts of beautiful decorations hung around the city, which is currently bustling with life. ]

How’s this, [ he gives his hand a squeeze, never having let go since they fell asleep together. ] I’ve heard good things about Windblume, and it seemed fitting for a first date.

[ he doesn't know if it'd work properly otherwise, so he's also using his dream amulet to be aware during this, but he's not manipulating anything. He looks around and he seems surprised to see Mondstadt, of all places ]

Windblume, hmm ...

Yeah. I have never been, and have only heard things, but I do know it’s pretty special. [ he’s already trying to think of a flower to give scaramouche. ] And it’s been a while since I’ve come to Mondstadt. Not to mention I figured you probably wouldn’t want to spend the day in Snezhnaya. [ because fatui. ] But I would like to take you ice skating sometime. Although I guess there’s nothing stopping me from changing things around later.

Spending time with you is the most important thing besides.

... Snezhnaya is fine. It's not like I was kidnapped, I spent my time there willingly. Everything I did, everything that was done to me while I was a Harbinger — it's all things I agreed to and wanted.

But the weather isn't good for a date in there.

…mm, I know, but we can always get caught in storm some other time. [ he starts leading along the street, soaking in the atmosphere. ] Haha, so you’re not going to let me drag you ice skating at some point?

What do you know about Windblume?

That it's a festival for couples. Or at least it's the perfect excuse to tell someone you love them.

H- Hahaha. [ turns a little red. ] It, ah, yeah, has romantic undertones, sure, but it can be used to strengthen bonds… and then there’s the flower, the Windblume, which is generally given to somebody special, …you, in this case. [ he’s not sure why he’s fumbling over his words so much, probably because he feels the need to justify everything. ]

[ red petals get kicked up in the breeze as childe gives his hand a nervous squeeze. ] But you’ll have to wait until later for that.

[ oh, he's cute when he blushes. He squeezes his hand back and smiles at him ]

Should I think of a flower for you too?
