[ a bit of a strained smile, but it grows warmer when they talk about sharing a meal. she offers her hand again (once he's done petting) since he liked handholding the first time ]
[ baby goat... he does in fact give razzle a good pet, stroking very gently between the horns, intentionally trying to follow the direct of the coif so as not to mess up the fluff any. ]
They'll find themselves facing punishment from any number of people if they press their luck too much, I imagine. [ if not him, then someone else whose ire they've earned.
but petting aside, he will oblige the handholding again. ] Yes, I think so. I don't believe whatever vehicle runs these tracks will be arriving anytime soon - a meal sounds better.
[ if anything happens to razzle i'll kill everyone in this game and then myself ]
A punishment could be as simple as making them do the chores in the mansion for a time. I believe in proportionate and appropriate reprimands, rather than being so excessive or cruel. [ nodding his agreement ]
If I may, while we walk - we have mines in Liyue that use railcars, but I'm not familiar with trains.
Oh, that wouldn't be such a bad idea. Though I'm not sure they would go for it... [ she looks relieved he doesn't believe in cruel punishment ]
Oh! Well, it's a vehicle that can carry passengers, cargo, or both. They're usually quite large, and are used for quick and comfortable transportation.
While I'm not one to use such methods as group pressure... the disapproval of the majority could lend us some favor in that. [ clean up after yourselves! ]
I see... I believe another nation in the world I come from has something similar, although it's on waterways rather than on iron rails. That's quite convenient.
Oh? Is that a peculiar thing for you? I couldn't imagine why.
[ she's very agreeable to him? ]
Something like that, from what I know, yes. But - ah, if you'd like to hear about Liyue, I would be happy to share it with you. The question is where to begin... we might be here for a while.
That is true. Variety is the spice of life, as they say, and that does come to beliefs as well.
[ he'll reach to open the door when they arrive at the cafe, lifting their joined hands to usher her in first like the old timey gentleman that he is. ]
Oh - this is quite charming, actually. [ kawaiicore... ]
A great task has been given to me... but I will take up the challenge nonetheless.
[ hm. he'll tap through the menu, at least not henpecking it like a truly old man. every few pages he glances at her, as if in consideration, before he puts in the order.
a plate of heart-shaped danishes, a dish of goldfish dumplings, and two adorable sodas with ice cream creatures on top - one strawberry with a rabbit, the other peach with a bear. ]
To begin - one sweet, one savory, and one sweet drink. If we've not had our fill after these, then I will pass the baton to you for our next order.
[ but damn, she wasn't expecting this much food. razzle comes to hang out, intrigued by the sweets in particular. i, sipp, am hungry now how dare you ]
Oh, this looks like plenty! And it's all so.... cute!
[ she's gonna lose her mind food is never this good or adorable or hell ]
[ "sipp the mods say this food isn't even that good" exactly ]
[ listen. my mans does nothing half-assed. but when razzle comes over, he reaches to pat him on the coifed fluff, offering one of the heart danishes. ]
Would you like a drink, as well, little friend? [ can't leave out charlie's buddy! ]
It all is. A bit hard to decide, but I followed instinct with enough consideration. Hopefully it's as enjoyable to eat as it is to look at. [ it won't be but that's fine it'll be inspiration for them to take to the cooks of the game to go :pleading: at ]
I will do my utmost. [ he means this, but listen. razzle is cute.
and now that i'm tagging this again i really want a danish. screwed myself over with this menu choice. ]
A highlight of this update to our predicament, certainly. Hopefully no one makes a mess of it the way they did yesterday. [ time to settle down with their things to try them out. ]
[ he says, as he offers razzle another danish while charlie is distracted by the rest of the food, trying for on the sly like a grandpa with strawberry candies. with his other hand, he carefully slides the strawberry soda with rabbit ice cream across to charlie. ]
It's almost too much to eat, to see it in front of us. How charming - oh. [ he reaches into a pocket of his slacks, pulling out his phone and carefully opening up the camera so that he can take a picture of their food and drinks. ] Mr. Ali showed me that there's a functioning Kamera as part of this device.
[ tsk tsk, she will find out. but for now, he's safe, as she takes a bite, her eyes lighting up. razzle scarfs down the danish. both of them seem very content with the taste, even though this is a restaurant known for its aesthetic, not taste ]
Oh, shit!
... I should have taken a picture first. [ she takes hers out ]
[ a small pat to razzle's snout, before he's more focused on the food and the picture that he takes of everything. judging by her reaction, it will at least be good, if not fine dining, so he'll be glad to eat it. ]
Oh, are we able to do that with these smaller Kamera? Taking pictures together in Teyvat tends to mean that one must have someone else take the shot for you.
No, these phones have cameras inside them. [ scooches over to show him the camera app, then shows him how to swap between selfie mode and regular mode ]
See, one on each side. So you can take pictures of yourself or anyone else.
[ she snaps a photo of the food to demonstrate. razzle eyes her plate.... he's tempted ]
no subject
I hope so, too... but we'll have to see.
[ a bit of a strained smile, but it grows warmer when they talk about sharing a meal. she offers her hand again (once he's done petting) since he liked handholding the first time ]
Shall we?

[ holding hands holding hands ]
Oh-- I hope not. Or... maybe very, very light punishment? A gentle talking to? [ sorry she's a softy ]
Ah-- the train? I don't think so, either. So... let's get something to eat.

Oh, that sounds amazing! A water train.
[ she is picturing this ]
Will you tell me more about your nation, Zhongli?
no subject
[ she's very agreeable to him? ]
Something like that, from what I know, yes. But - ah, if you'd like to hear about Liyue, I would be happy to share it with you. The question is where to begin... we might be here for a while.
no subject
[ it's fine ]
Well, we are getting food, so what better time to share?
no subject
I see. I'm sorry to hear that, considering there's not been a reason thus far for us to disagree.
[ does hell exist in genshin? i'm not going to think about it. ]
So long as you'll share with me what your favorite things about home are in exchange.
no subject
[ such as: she is a joke ]
Of course! [ to the cafe??? ] Oh, I can't wait to order!
no subject
[ he'll reach to open the door when they arrive at the cafe, lifting their joined hands to usher her in first like the old timey gentleman that he is. ]
Oh - this is quite charming, actually. [ kawaiicore... ]
no subject
[ ahaha... ]
Oh, thank you, Zhongli. [ peepaw is such a gentleman.... ]
Right? Isn't it? I love animals and I love food, what's not to like?
no subject
Hardly anything, I would think, but it does come down to the taste of the food whether it delights every sense. Let's see... what to order, first.
no subject
[ pick ]

[ but he does eat the danish in one bite.charlie beckons him back over ]
I'm sure it will be! Whoever made this put a huge amount of thought into this.
no subject

A highlight of this update to our predicament, certainly. Hopefully no one makes a mess of it the way they did yesterday. [ time to settle down with their things to try them out. ]
no subject
[ you really did. also, razzle is obediently by charlie's side, but he bleps and looks innocently at zhongli ]
Oh, I hope so... We all have to share these facilities, after all.
[ the food comes and her eyes go very round ]
It's even more adorable than I thought! Oh Em Gee!
