ᴛᴜʀʙᴏ ʜᴇᴀᴠᴇɴ ☁️ garrett hawke
code to go here!
[ zhongli is minding his own business at the train stop, with a to-go cup of what smells like coffee upon getting close enough. he's waiting for the train, having seen people get on it - but he glances over when he hears footseps coming this way.
seeing hawke reminds him of his insistence to learn more about dragons. ]
Ah, Mister Hawke. Good morning. It appears the rails have become active, now, if you would care to join me in finding out where they go.

[ you know when you see a person light up and the metaphorical tail starts wagging in absolute delight? peepaw is getting the full effect right now ]
I would be honored.
I would be honored.
Indeed. The last person I asked flew away before she could teach me anything.

[ mutters something about witches and their secrets ]
Well, I suppose the most important one is if you know any.

[ WHIPS HEAD AROUND. GAAAAASP. etc ]
You're a dragon!?

[ the torch lightbulbs are going off ]
You're- oh that's awkward isn't it, being stuck like this in someone else's.... domain?

[ help it's not like it's a secret, now, so he just looks a bit amused (if pained, for zhongli). ]
There have been many gods in Teyvat, and one overseeing entity higher above than even the Seven. It isn't a foreign idea, but it isn't one that I find myself particularly enjoying, if only due to our deaths having been the catalyst of finding ourselves here.

Like elven gods.
[ not that he's remotely knowledgeable about Those GuysTM but it sounds about right ]
Do all of you get fancy dragon forms then?

I wouldn't know, although we do have some elvish races in Teyvat.
[ looks at all the pointy ears. anyways, ]
No, that would simply be a part of who I am, specifically. The Anemo Archon began life as a wind elemental spirit, for example. [ he compats his hands close together to indicate baby barbatos' size, once upon a time. ]

[ tiny... ]
So a bit of a mix of element and nature, I guess? [ ponders ] If you're more inclined- or, affiliated with certain things it would play a factor.

[ honestly rng choosing beach is wildly appropriate. zhongli can be found with polearm in hand, point angled downwards but grip tight and ready rather than absently loose like it had been for most of the week so far. he's walking the length of the beach and scanning it with brow furrowed, expression severe, like he's just - looking. for anything. where charlie was, any signs of a scuffle or struggle or fight or anything, but coming up short the entire way.
approach? he hasn't immediately registered that someone else is there with him, to be honest. ]

[ good thing hawke had the grand idea to come out and stare at the water in deep contemplation. lucky for him, zhongli is more interesting than staring at the ocean so he'll just waddle over and do his best not to spook yet another grandpa into a heart attack ]
Anything?
Anything?
[ help. good news is that he's hard to startle! even though right now he's on edge, he doesn't try to shank hawke on approach. just lifts his head up a little more quickly than he has for the week so far, before some tension eases out - but only some. ]
Nothing. Some of us were out here, last night, and don't remember falling asleep. But nothing roused us, either.

Same here. We were stuck in the bathroom but then we were waking up hours later.
[ he makes the biggest stank face ]
What I don't understand is how- or why Charlie managed to leave without any of us noticing.

[ that sure happened!! hawke just slides on over to him on their way out probably ]
Talk about a dramatic turn of events. Not even the drunkest of tavern dwellers would believe it.

[ back straight, arms still behind it with polearm in one hand, zhongli is quiet but lets hawke fall into step with him without question. he is... pondering. frowning. ]
No, likely not. It was the eleventh hour, as they say, and not an expected result from it.

I don't think any of us expected it to turn out the way it did. Outside of our suspect pool he didn't feel any guiltier than you or me.
[ though he did say That in his defense so like, what does he know! nothing apparently!! ]

Yes! That's the oddity I felt. He seemed off in some way I couldn't particularly put a finger on.
