Hehe . . . perhaps I'm simply feeling envious of Lumine's adventures.

Imagine the ballads I'll be able to write.

[leaveofabsence]

And will you be able to leave Mondstadt for that amount of time?

[outofoffice]

Of course! Mondstadt will be just fine without me, and what's life without the joy and wonder of exploration?

Really, it's the homebody here that I worry for more.

[leaveofabsence]

It is a good thing I have a veteran traveler to show me the ropes then.

[outofoffice]

And you're not worried about Liyue in your absence?

[leaveofabsence]

It has been handling itself quite well in my absence.

Enough that even before here, I could venture out to the see the world as I pleased.

[outofoffice]

Does that mean you'll finally come to Ludi Harpastum? And Windblume?

[leaveofabsence]

Yes to both. I wouldn't miss them for anything.

Lighting up ]

--Really?!

[leaveofabsence]

Of course.

My word is set in stone - is it not?

[ Leaning up to press a kiss to his cheek ]

Hehehe . . . so it is.

[leaveofabsence]

[ Come now, weeks apart and only a cheek kiss. Who is the reserved one around here?

With a fond sigh, Zhongli takes Venti's face gently in his hands and tilts his head back for a proper kiss. ]

[outofoffice]

[ Even the bard can be soft sometimes.

Zhongli can relish the faint dusting of color over Venti's cheeks as he presses his hands over Zhongli's and returns the kiss, humming a few happy notes. ]

[leaveofabsence]

[ Pulling away gently ]

It is good to see you again.

[outofoffice]

I could say the same.

Quite inconvenient for you to be snatched away when I've only just grown accustomed to always having you here.

[leaveofabsence]

I suppose we'll have to make up for lost time then.

[outofoffice]

Does that mean you're volunteering to endure my company allllll~ the time?

[leaveofabsence]

What would you do - I wonder - if I took you up on such a challenge?

[outofoffice]

Hmmmm . . .







I genuinely have no idea.
