[ obligatory fit check instead of sexy angel costume! though at least now i can mention that yves was probably covered in bandages beneath his angel costume earlier so it wasn't even that scandalous. if nothing else, it just shows that the lace half mask he was wearing wasn't just part of the costume - it's an outfit staple. yay!
but yves is grinning! is he already behind the bar? maybe! ]
Sure have! It's where the booze is, Zhongli! Are you a drinker? Or shall I find a juice for you?
[ look at the boy! so many people arrived here bandaged that it does worry him a bit, but yves seems to be in good spirits. it means he won't bring much attention to it, and instead chuckle at the mention of juice. ]
You rather enjoy playing the host, I think. [ with light amusement. ] No, I enjoy a good wine somewhat regularly, as much as I do a well-made pot of tea. But if they're lacking in that I suppose I'll see what else there is.
[ yves will just turn around and point things out as he sees them ]
There's plenty of beer, if you want something hearty and typical. Mixed drinks for a different little concoction - something adventurous! Or just shots if you're trying to get good very fast.
[ he follows along from the other side of the counter, curious. wow venti would be happy to know there's endless beer. ]
I believe I'll take the slow and scenic route, personally. [ no thank you to shots. does peepaw look like a shots guy to you. ] A beer will be fine for now, as something to try, since it's a little less popular in Liyue.
We are most fond of osmanthus wine, as a nation. Our neighbors in Mondstadt will make dandelion wine that is enjoyable, but, truth be told, I would take ours most any day - the taste is more delightful.
[ it tastes the same as he remembers.............. anyways he lifts up the beer, lifting it in thanks. ]
he doesn't seem to notice immediately, or if he does he's not inclined to point it out right away. but he does watch him. ]
I wondered if perhaps it was on the phone, after someone explained its functions to me, but I wasn't able to find anything. Perhaps my own unfamiliarity for the technology, but if no one else has reported its discovery... [ sigh ]
It's unfamiliar to me, although I would hope I am a quick learner these days. [ he takes a sip of his beer as he considers it. ] But thank you, Yves. Should I learn anything, I'll be glad to extend that knowledge to you as well in exchange.
Overall, that does seem to be the experience. [ a small smile ] Some of us seem to have thrown a few fits, but... I can't necessarily fault them, so long as it isn't to continue.

Then - a toast to good drink and good company!
Maybe they'll widen up the selection so I can try your osmanthus wine some day.
no subject
Cheers. [ he will take a sip afterwards. it's not terrible, it's just. beer. not his particular taste, but he'll try most anything once. ]
With the way things have opened up overnight, that is a possibility. What do you think of the new changes, Yves?
no subject
but he tilts his head at zhongli's question ]
Hmm... I'm appreciative, because I'm sure everyone likes having space to stretch and a bed to sleep in.
But... I kind of wish we'd get that pamphlet? There's a lot of questions that I didn't expect to have after dying.

Ah... I hadn't heard anything. The tech is like... what they've got at the Institute, but it's way above anything what I know.
I'll let ya know if I hear anything though!

I think it's normal for their emotions to get the better of them but - that's a privilege of youth, right?

If only we could give them a better outlet for such emotions, especially given what they've gone through.

I think especially those who are inexperienced should learn the basics. I know this is heaven, but it can be a good outlet for aggression, too.

True! Though... I hope those who have come from peaceful lives are able to return to them.
