[ i'm going to drop us directly into memshare so that i can make sure we get everything taken care of. so whether they're in the funhouse or step through a doorway and find themselves there...
well, congrats! you've been chosen for a memory of stone for this one! if you want another one later on in the thread or the week i've GOT you, though i apologize that this is 20 minutes of genshin cutscenes. it's easier to watch than read because there's so much dialogue and lore i'm sorry. ]
[I suppose this means Akihiko is standing here watching the mirrors for a whole twenty minutes alongside Zhongli. He doesn't notice how long it's been -- he's watching with attention, intrigued and watching previously unsaid secrets unfurl in front of him.
When it's over, he's quiet, and glances at Zhongli, until...]
I'm not sure where to get started with this.
[That sure was a lot of stuff! But, well, he actually has kind of a decent idea of what to focus on, the thing that caught his attention the most. The happenings were entirely different and it's plenty obvious there's a whooooole lot of memories unsaid here he probably will never find out about, but it sure brought to mind a certain someone he once knew, mostly because of how tense a close friendship got due to circumstances beyond Akihiko's control and how, in some way, it seemed like that friendship defined a whole lot of Zhongli -- or at least that's the impression Akihiko is getting here, that regardless, his friendship with that sealed one is of the utmost importance to Zhongli as a person]
[ listen it's a blink of the eye and an eternity at the same time, when it comes to memshares.
zhongli can't help the light huff of a chuckle that escapes him when akihiko speaks up, watching the memory ripple and fade across the mirrors. there's no move to try and shatter the illusion, to dispel the memory, because - he's said it himself, didn't he? his memory is very good. he'll remember everything that others forget.
he will never, ever forget his lost friends. even if they still slumber beneath the earth. even if he's had to subdue them with his own hands. (this is an extremely stressful boss fight that you can do weekly to farm level up materials, and you get an achievement for doing it without using shields. guess who's never done that.) ]
Alright, let's start with the simple question. Who was your...friend there? The one sealed away.
[Yeah, the memory kind of said plenty, but...hearing it come from Zhongli himself would be good, get it straight out of him because it's easier to try to figure out Zhongli's feelings about this all this way]
