[IT'S PLANT MAN WITH HIS PLANT PLANS
I think it's funny if they're still in IKEA on a different day, so that's where they are as Kaveh rounds a corner and very nearly runs into Livio.]
Woah--ah, sorry, sorry.

[Wow, this man is even more reactive than he is
Kaveh jumps a little, but he offers a quick smile, adjusting his. Cloak cape drape-y thingy. Idk what to call it.]
Yes, I'm fine. My apologies--I was lost in thought.

[This is so concerning
Kaveh blinks, peering at his face.]
Are you alright?

Are you alright?
[Kaveh doesn't look convinced, but he nods.]
I suppose so. We've met, and she's from Teyvat as well. Why?

[LIVIO NO!!! Kaveh looks startled and alarmed, but he reaches out to carefully take Livio's hand.]
Oh no, did you startle her? [SHE DOES REACT QUITE VIOLENTLY...] Here, hold still.
[He will Activate Healing!!]

[SWEET LIVIO IS DOING HIS BEST.
When he's done, Kaveh gestures to his face, as well.]
Did you need me to take care of that too? I might as well.

[Kaveh waves a dismissive hand.]
Don't worry about it. [Don't repay him!!! He lifts that same hand, then, but doesn't reach out right away.] May I?
Don't worry about it. [Don't repay him!!! He lifts that same hand, then, but doesn't reach out right away.] May I?
Of course. What kind of person asks for payment to treat someone?
[Kaveh is from a socialist country
But he will reach out and tap Livio's face, then! DOUBLE HEAL.]

[Yeah!!!
Kaveh laughs, though.]
Make it up to me by being more careful, especially around Shenhe.

[Unfortunately Kaveh feels the same way so he just nods]
I think so too. It does make me worry a little about whatever situation she came from... [WHY IS SHE SO GUARDED... shenhe... :< ] ...Anyway, don't let anyone convince you that you need to repay them for getting healed. If they give you trouble, just come to me.

Kaveh is just here, though, doing his best. He nods!!]
Of course.

Of course.
[He really is. I'm sure that won't be a problem at all here
But Kaveh blinks, then brightens up!!]
Oh, that's right! Sorry--I sort of expected you were just being polite. [He didn't think Livio would actually follow up] Are you sure you don't mind? It's hard for me to shut up once I get going.

In that case--you wanted to know how a building can have soul, right? Well, I don't mean it literally, of course--although now I'm not so sure [thanks Buzen and Matsui]--but more in the sense that a building's design should have character. You should look at it and feel moved in some way, a way that's appropriate to whatever its function is. Look at it this way--imagine if you felt the same way walking into a place of worship as you did looking at a grocery store. That would be absurd, don't you think? Consider, too, ancient ruins--whatever that may look like where you're from. Surely some of those structures still take your breath away, even today? My point is, architecture is art.
Ultimately, of course, aesthetics are not the top priority--safety and quality are. But for me... I've designed too many buildings that were pure, lifeless practicality. That's why I insist on beauty in every one of my designs.
