Silly Morax . . . of course I'd be glad to spend more time with you! You make it sound like you're guilty of some past wrongdoing, but that's not the case at all.
[ Except for the faking his death thing. Obviously. GRAVE WRONGDOING. ]
Really now. Do you see me as so outdated? I know what the phrase means.
I care for you, Venti. You are a dear friend - one who has seen the dusk and dawn of many centuries with me. And I am not so dense to not realize that I love you. I have for a long time. But whether or not that is a romantic feeling, I can or cannot yet say. Such things have never been a strength of mine.
For the moment, and this meeting in particular, I wish not to further complicate things with my own muddled feelings. This is your Rite of Parting - a celebration of you and an acknowledgement of your achievements and your sufferings. One that has been long overdue. And whether I am guilty or not of some past wrong doing, there seems to be things you want that I am trying to understand how better I can provide.
I love you too, you old blockhead. You're my oldest and dearest friend. And as for what I want . . . sharing these moments with you is more than enough.

Perhaps if you just start with one or two to see if your heart can take it.

Maybe I will!
My riveting love life is distracting from my funeral, though.

Though unfortunately, there is no instrument here that I am well versed in so I suppose you will have to settle for a simple spoken eulogy.
no subject
--I could teach you, though!

I would like to spend more time with you. It has been many years since we had to properly catch up and---
This place has never been conducive to lulls and quiet times, so we will have to forge them ourselves.

. . . For some reason that makes him feel some kind of way. Awful!!
Better make it into a joke ]
I'd be careful with such declarations, Mr. Zhongli. If I didn't know you well, I'd assume you were asking me out~

. . . Especially if it involves praising me.

[ He says without an ounce of genuine remorse in his tone. ]
Perhaps I praised you a little too much.
