[ he's respectful and ancient idk what you expect man.
also at least he hasn't stabbed anything like mizu did. he's just... cautious. ]
Rich, then. [ and he will be called this by zhongli for the foreseeable future, as he looks around at their surroundings. ] Then I can imagine that your favorite place so far is the Confessional. Their selection is rather small, compared to what I'm used to, but this place is curiouser and curiouser already.
Zee... [ it's actually. kind of refreshing? to just be treated like Some Dude, instead of a respected figure in liyue or its god. so after his bemusement he just accepts this, and props the spear against an arcade machine. ]
The beach, mostly. Liyue is not a landlocked nation and has its number of shores and small islands, and I've spent quite a few years living in Liyue Harbor itself. The instruments at the stage are so varied that the things I don't recognize have been interesting - between that and the Confessional, I think they will be where the people gather most for now.
A little, yes. Our bartender, Gabriel, is helping to add to that by seeing what they can do about getting me a wine from home.
[ absolutely fascinated as he stands close, bent forward a little so he can see what richie is doing on the controls and how it affects the little guy and his car alike.
the tap makes him blink, but he'll reach out to set gloved hands on the buttons and joystick. amused: ]
I'm going to hazard a guess that this isn't the goal of the game.
He is happy to see him take the wheel. Figuratively. There's a fair few folks here who can't seem to unclench, it's nice to kick it with a few with a sense of humor.]
I just wanted to see what would happen! [He points to the road.] But if you're playing for real, keep tight on the road and go as fast as you can. It's a racing game.
Osmanthus wine. [ it tastes the same as i remember ] It tastes a bit like peach or apricot, if you are unfamiliar. When I've gotten a bottle you may try some if you'd like.
[ despite how prim and proper he seems, he's more than happy to be included in learning new, interesting things, so he'll try to mimic what richie was doing when he was behind the figurative wheel. ]
Trial and error, I see. And better to know the limitations that are in place in some way. Oh - I crashed. [ watches the car hit a wall, in his attempt to overcorrect and stay on the road while still going at top speed. his voice is mild, but amused. ]

Have you been to the beach or the stage yet?
no subject
Oh yeah, both. I live next to a beach, and I'm all about the sound. What about you? What's calling to you so far, Zee?
[meanwhile he's going to idly fiddle with a joystick on a racing game. Gently crashing this car, repeatedly.]

[ watches the car crash again. ]

[He tests it out further. Can we crash into this water feature? Oh! We can! There's even little polygonal splashes to go with it.
He reaches out and taps Zhongli in.]
You give her a whirl. I'm giving our man so much brain damage.

I'd be interested. Usually I prefer a dry wine but I'm not opposed to the sweet stuff.
[Watches him beef it.]
Ah, you've killed him. That's okay, he's got about a million lives to spare. Look! He's back on the road already!
[RESPAWN. try again Zhongli]

Gabriel made it sound that it would be ready this week, so we shall see how they faired with it.
[ he'll give the joystick a little wiggle and get the car moving again. rip to this driver just stuck in a groundhog day loop of death. ]
It takes some getting used to, I see. We don't have vehicles like this in Teyvat, nevermind games like this, so it's all new.
