[ at least zhongli is realistic - he is hopeful, and knows that the glass is half full; but he's also aware that it's half empty, and, should they continue to fill it, it will overfill. the balance has to be maintained.

[ he doesn't need to stay steady for her. with the size of the group, it's hard for her to maintain her usual of keeping her head down or minimizing herself to appear like she isn't a threat. she is expecting to die here before reaching their atonement.
her gaze is going to move across him again, pondering for a moment what teas to give him to ease whatever ache he may feel later in his muscles and shoulders. ]
I won't say the numbers out loud or our chances. I am already going with the assumption I won't make it for the full eight weeks. While I don't want to die again, I am already used to the idea that I may die at any point.
[ that is how it is in her world ]
However, I do hope you take the time to take care of yourself in all of this.
