[IT SOUNDS SO OMINOUS AND FOR WHAT. Kaveh has no idea what Childe's capable of so he's not nearly as worried as he probably should be, but still.

Fortunately, though, this conversation is happening after the one he had with Alhaitham, so Kaveh does not send back "HE DID WHAT???"]

Wait, is this about that bouquet mix-up?

[ Damn... Kaveh out here just doesn't care about his boo— ]

if it's truly a mix-up, then there's no problem, right?
i'll just ask him to be sure.

[They'll die of old age before Kaveh accepts that he's anyone's boo (pensive)

This seems reasonable, though. From what he remembers, Childe's a little weird and purposely annoying, but otherwise nothing strikes him as all that odd. Maybe a bouquet got delivered to Childe too, or maybe he's genuinely just trying to help figure things out? Who knows.]

Well, don't say I didn't warn you if he's not at his desk. [Alhaitham and his "you'll never catch me during office hours" schtick... tch] And for the record, I didn't send anything. I already told him that when he accused me of being the culprit, so don't let him fool you into thinking it was me.

[Alhaitham would not do that but Kaveh wouldn't be Kaveh if he didn't have a thousand wild conspiracies]

that's fine, that's fine.
i'll find him one way or another.

[ why is kaveh so trusting... this is why people take advantage of him— ]

but why?
you're not the type to send flowers?

[STOP HE JUST LIVES A RELATIVELY NORMAL LIFE THAT GENERALLY DOESN'T INVOLVE THE FATUI]

Send them under his name?? Absolutely not! What reason could I possibly have for doing something like that?

to mess with him?
then again, i guess you're not really the type to do something like that.

[ Kaveh's too nice, ]

[He is nice... and he's not above being petty, but--]

I wouldn't waste my time. All he'd do is exactly what he's doing now--point out that they're not from him and pursue the truth until he finds it, or he decides it's no longer worth his energy.

[It would just be pointless... Alhaitham doesn't know how to play along with anything, thinks Kaveh, despite the fact that Alhaitham pulls his pigtails 3 times a week at minimum]
