[ she takes another bite, and lumine can't help but smile. this is the most normal she has felt since arriving here, and it feels so good. she could almost pretend they're back in teyvat. ]
[ He flashes her a grin, before sticking the second kebab in his mouth. It's also pretty good! In fact, as it turns out, all the fish are quite delicious, despite their looks. Cue another montage of them exchanging flirts quips and chatting while finishing their meal, all while the sun goes down.
Once they're done, Childe leans back on his hands and sighs. ]
So long as we don't drop dead in the next few hours, I'd say that was a huge success.
[ inhaling deeply, lumine casts her gaze up to the darkened sky, to stars she does not recognize, but that is nothing new to her, either. how many different skies has she seen? ]
So far, so good. I feel fine. Who would have thought they would be so delicious?
[ lumine leans back on her hands, then lowers herself until she's lying back. she'll regret getting sand in her hair and dress, but it's worth it in the moment, to watch the dark sky open up before her eyes, to feel the sunwarmed sand beneath her. ]
...I heard that the game before we got here involved a lot of bloodshed. Which would, of course, normally be right up my alley, but not the way they had to do it.
[ He has his own moral code, and won't hesitate to end a life if he justifies it by his own reasoning, but even he wonders if this place could push him to make a choice he doesn't want to. ]
Right. We should be prepared for anything...which doesn't give us much to rely on, but if you ever need a hand in one of these games, you can count on me to be an ally.
[ Assuming they're not directly pitted against each other, but even then, if it was something he objected to, he would simply take the loss. ]

Childe follows suit, biting into the blobfish meat on his skewer. ]
Huh...not what I expected, but it's pretty flavorful.
no subject
This was a good idea.
no subject
Yeah...it was, wasn't it? We should make a habit out of this. That is, if you're not sick of me already.
[ He's kidding, of course. No one could ever get sick of him! ]
no subject
[ she begins, teasing, then takes another bite, finishing off her first skewer. ]
I suppose it wouldn't be too terrible to do it again.

[ His gaze falls back to the fire, which is still burning. ]
So...did you want to hang out here awhile longer, or head back? I didn't exactly mean to steal your whole day like this.
no subject
[ she chuckles, and looks toward him, studying his profile. ]
It's fine, I don't mind. Are you getting tired?
no subject
[ But it's a rare occurrence that he runs out of energy. ]
We can stay awhile longer, if you'd like. It'd be a shame to miss out on a view like this.

I can spare a little bit more time.
no subject
That's what I was hoping to hear. I get the feeling that moments like this are few and far between here.
no subject
Mm. It almost feels like the calm before the storm.

I heard the same. It sounded.. horrific. It ought to give us an idea of what to expect.

So it's a team-up, then?
no subject
[ He'll stick by her here, for better or for worse. ]
no subject
I won't. I'm used to working with a partner, anyway.
no subject
[ sorry not sorry paimon ]
no subject
Sometimes, maybe. But I was with my brother before that, too. I'm not used to being so.. alone.
no subject
Well, then! I'm just going to have to make my presence around you more permanent. You better not be sick of my face yet.
no subject
[ that much is definitely true.. ]
no subject
[ HEY.... ]
"When"? Not "if"? You wound me, comrade!
