I would consider myself quite blessed if I had appeared again. You are quite well known far and wide among the people of Teyvat.

And it would be a shame for the producers to keep pulling people from there without letting you regain memories of them.

Though unfortunately I can see how that also works in the production's favor.

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

Keeping me in the dark would work in Production's favor? How so...?

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[leaveofabsence]

Ah, my apologies. I misspoke. While keeping memories from idols in general is a method of control, it makes less sense to not have them remember people from their own stars. That adds an emotional component to these games where they force choices upon us, so it's no surprise that your memories would be a laundry list of those present from Teyvat.

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[glidinglight]

Ah, no, I probably just misunderstood. You're right, though; I'm sure this is their way of trying to yank my chain whenever the next horrible game comes around.

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[leaveofabsence]

But to talk of less dour things, how do you feel now? You've lived quite the varied life.

[glidinglight]

You mean about the memories?

[ she takes a few moments to reflect ]

It's a little strange learning about myself this way--and a little bit annoying to be shown all these things that I used to be able to do and still can't do here. And it's definitely annoying to get things in these little... bits and pieces so I don't have a clear picture of everything.

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[glidinglight]

That said, I seem to have met a lot of really interesting people and I've seen some unforgettable things. I'd like to learn more. If my brain didn't suddenly feel like I spent several hours studying, I'd probably be tempted for another round.

[ That gets a little huff of laughter from Zhongli ]

I will have to take your word for it. And I also believe this to be a good stopping point.

[ No need to tempt fate (or the producers) with whatever they would choose next. ]

Though if I may - while there are some things that we are unable to do here that we could do in Teyvat, it is always comforting to see that you keep your charm and charisma no matter what challenge is thrown your way.

[ she laughs ]

You're one to talk! Here you are pulling off that-- [ she gestures to whichever HSS ensemble he's in today ] -- looking just as sharp as you did in that suit from back home. I don't think anyone else could pull that off.

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[leaveofabsence]

The producers really do much it a challenge consider the aesthetic that I have to work with...

So I shall take that as a very high compliment.

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[glidinglight]

Your unit really does have the least forgiving aesthetic. Going by your apparent tastes back home ... you'd probably be happiest in something from BARiTONES. But let me know sometime if you want something from my team's selections--we can probably find something more to your taste.

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[leaveofabsence]

Lumine, are you offering to go to the market with me?

[ He is practically sparkling with excitement.




For a rock, anyway. ]

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[glidinglight]

[ Well, she wasn't really sure that Zhongli would take her up on the offer. But it was a genuine one! ]

Sure, if you want to! I bet it'll be fun.

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[leaveofabsence]

I would be honored.

Though I will have to gift you something else than clothes in return due to the already discussed nature of Heart's aesthetic. Might I treat you to a meal instead?

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[glidinglight]

That sounds like a fair exchange to me!

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[leaveofabsence]

Then would you like to go now. We can perhaps discuss your memories as we browse. I may not be able to answer many questions about the companions you have met, but surely if you have any questions regarding Teyvat, I might be able to help.

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[glidinglight]

That's good timing. I don't really have anything else to do today, so that would be a nice way to pass the time.

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[leaveofabsence]

We could take my motorcycle if you'd like to drive again.

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[glidinglight]

Yes, please!

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[leaveofabsence]

[ Reaches to take her hand ]

Then if you would follow me.

Re: Witnesses & interactions welcome

[glidinglight]

[ Following along, as requested. ]
