[I will get to my toplevel tags soon but Kaveh is definitely going to make sure Kazuki gets new clothes and will probably buy them for him just so you know
ANYWAY. He will come check on him later!! After they've all somehow managed to sleep, maybe?? Kaveh hasn't but that's because he's just Like This. It's fine. He'll crash later.
For now, he just gives him a once-over.]
Doing alright?

[ bless u kaveh he has fresh clothes now without any bloodstains 🙏 WOW I DIDN'T FINISH READING DON'T BUY THEM FOR HIM HELLO ]
I'm fine now, yeah. Thanks for helping me yesterday. [ glances. ] Are you okay? Did you even sleep?

Don't worry about it. It was no trouble. [He waves a hand dismissively.] I was up working, but I will soon. I don't like to interrupt my workflow when I'm in the middle of something.

[ KAVEH NO SLAPS HIS HANDS ]
Working on what? I don't think our normal jobs matter here.

I'm trying to make a map. I can't scan the area with Mehrak, but its drawing capabilities still seem functional, so I've been doing what I can. [Mods said Mehrak can have AutoCAD, bless.] Even if it won't help us figure out our way out of here, it's... the only thing I can do right now.
[He needs to feel like he's doing something useful.]

Mehrak... That was on your profile, wasn't it? What is it?
It doesn't hurt to have a map, even if there aren't many places we can even go right now. Did you finish it already?

It's my toolbox. [He holds it up! It just has its neutral face on right now.] And my assistant, in a way. But no, not yet. I have the bare essentials down, but it's extremely basic at the moment.
You named your toolbox?
[ oh but it's got a cute lil face. what the heck. why is a toolbox cute. ]
Okay. Do you need help, then? I've never made a map before, but I can try, and you probably shouldn't be out there by yourself.
[ like kaveh is ten years older than him. ]

[ like kaveh is ten years older than him. ]
Well, yes. It needs some way of knowing when I'm giving it a command, after all.
[And sometimes you're sad and lonely and you build yourself a friend :< But he won't say that, of course.
That's cute, though. Kaveh smiles, and it's actually decently genuine.]
Don't worry about me. I won't turn down the help if you need something to do, though. [He gets it, tbh. He's feeling kind of restless himself.]

So, what, is it like an AI kind of thing?
[ that's pretty cool tbh? ]
It's the least I can do after you helped me out yesterday. [ he's gonna have to figure out how to explain what happened to his concert outfit when he gets home but that's a later problem. ] Besides, if you've really been up all night, someone should keep an eye on you before you collapse.

From what I understand, it's not quite the same--but there are some similarities. It doesn't talk, and it only performs the duties I ask of it, but it does have a variety of functions.
[Like helping him swing a sword and protecting his delicate artist fingies :<
Kaveh laughs, though, with a touch of awkwardness, in that "oh no someone is seeing through my facade quick pretend to be Extra Fine" sort of way.]
I won't collapse, I promise. I've gone much longer than this without rest. [That isn't reassuring]

[ protect his princess hands ]
Still sounds pretty useful, though. Cool, too. I've never seen anything quite like that before. It's like a computer, but more versatile?
[ he's not akito he doesn't know this tech ]
...Yeah, that's not helping your case, man. That's not healthy. Even I don't go that long without sleep.

[He needs them to pet foxes]
I'm not sure what a computer is, but--yes, it's very useful.
[Mehrak does its very best.]
It's really not that big of a deal! It's just an occasional thing. And I make up for it with proper rest later. [Why is he justifying himself so earnestly to a teenager]

--But don't copy my example. You should get proper rest. And don't become an architect, either. [Kaveh.]

Thanks for the advice, but I'm not planning to. I'm going to be a musician.
[ not that musicians get proper rest either but you know ]

[Rest, Kazuki!!! Kaveh doesn't harp on him, though--instead, he perks up, looking interested.]
Oh? That's wonderful. What instrument do you play?
Oh? That's wonderful. What instrument do you play?
[ wow it's so nice that people aren't judging him for this? ]
Electric guitar.
[ it's still strapped around his shoulders so he just kind of rotates it a little for kaveh to see better ]
I'd like to learn others, too, but for now it's just this.

[He will absolutely shift to take a look!]
So that's what they look like! I've heard of them, but I've never seen one myself. [Genshin be like "cars? no. rock n roll? yes."] I play a little music too, actually, but it's only a hobby.

You have electric guitars but not cars?
[ can't fault those priorities! teyvat inventors really get it. ]
What do you play?
[ can't fault those priorities! teyvat inventors really get it. ]
What do you play?
[ voids them but he'll find kaveh later because he has a Question ]
What's with you and that Lee guy, anyway?

Well, our roads are quite different, after all... [Maybe he'll go home and ask Faruzan to help him invent cars. That would be fun. Also I googled and the actual instrument doesn't even have a name in genshin, but this is close enough, so--] Ah, I play the dutar. It's a two-stringed instrument--somewhat similar in shape to a guitar, if I recall correctly, though I haven't seen one in a long time.
[Kaveh probably stomped off and got himself an angry latte tbh
But he's... calm now. Kind of. Rather, he's back to being focused on the stress of the situation and trying very hard not to fall into despair, but that's close enough to calm. He's resting his head on his hand where he sits, but he looks up at Kazuki's approach. He would've offered a tight smile in greeting, but the mention of Rang makes him scowl.]
I just can't stand people like that. They're infuriating.

You know he's probably just provoking you for laughs, right? You shouldn't play into it.
It doesn't matter what his reasoning is. No--it's worse if he's trying to be funny, actually. People are going to panic even worse than they already are, and we need to be supporting each other right now, not turning on each other.
[Also... he can't help reacting, honestly. He knows this about himself, even if he doesn't want to admit it.]
