Like... [ gestures toward his MISSING EYE and everything ] ...this, you mean? Yeah.

[ohthehumanities]

[SIMON YOUR BALLEYE]

Well, yes, that too. But I meant--your emotions.

[unsweeten]

[ a small anxiety spike ]

Um... what about them?

[ohthehumanities]

[Hmm. Well, now he's not sure...]

It's just that when we came back from our "special mission," it was a bit like I'd been cursed. So I wanted to make sure you're feeling okay.

[unsweeten]

Oh... um... w-well, yeah, some things have felt kinda weird, I guess...

[ohthehumanities]

[That's fair.]

You don't have to tell me the details. [Just, putting that out there. He pauses, but--well, listen. He has no reason to think they went to Teyvat, but no reason to think they didn't, so:] But I would like to know a little more about what happened, if that's okay.

[ i like the implication that the gigantic rainbow egg is plausibly a teyvat thing ]

Y-yeah, okay... Um. Was there anything in particular that you were curious about? It's... kind of a long and complicated story to just tell it straight through...

[ohthehumanities]

[Honestly anything could be a Teyvat thing if you really tried]

Well, I'd like to know where you were, if you know. What kind of place it was. [Just in case.] And... did you get anything, after you came back? Any kind of message?

[unsweeten]

I-it was just like... a fancy house with a lot of weird egg stuff in it? It had a garage with a car and everything. If it wasn't for the eggs and weird horror movie monster stuff it would have seemed pretty normal. ...Uh, normal to me, anyway.

[ and he shakes his head at the latter part ]

Mm, I heard from Nahida that you guys got some weird message last week, but I didn't get anything... a-at least not yet? Maybe something'll come in later, I guess.

[ohthehumanities]

[A garage with a car??? Kaveh blinks a few times. This is not what he expected... help

But he nods.]

Okay. Kiichi thought ours might've been a mistake anyway. [So maybe it really was...] I'm glad you're alright.

[unsweeten]

[ NOT WHAT HE EXPECTED EITHER ]

Yeah, it kind of sounded like it.... I dunno.

But thanks. I'm really glad we made it back at all.
