@boundlesswanderers​ sent: Curiously the tiny boy kept his eye one the strange guy, just a few meters away from the bush he kept himself hidden in. His father had said that someone would come to pick him up, but that blond guy didn't really seem like it was the person his father had spoken about?

Honestly, it had been his plan to stay hidden until he figured out what to think about that guy, but it's cold and the rain has only stopped moments ago, so the boy couldn't hold back a sneeze. Surprised by his own sudden noise he made some kind of scares sound while stumbling a few steps back,loosing his balance and eventually he found himself down on the cold ground.

"Uh..."

Meeting people out in weather like this definitely wasn’t what Aether had been expecting -- let alone his ‘new visitor’ being a child that bore a striking resemblance to a certain knight he knew. Kaeya didn’t have any long lost distant relatives, did he? Either way, after glancing the kid over-

“ Uh... ” Aether would offer the younger a hand, even if his own gloves were cold to the touch and rain soaked, too.

“ Hey there, little guy! You look like you’re kind of in a tight spot. Wanna come with me and see if we can’t find a nice, warm campfire to dry off by? ”

IT DOESN’T FEEL RIGHT to chastise the anemo archon. To hold the divine to ransom against earthly morality. Yet it doesn’t feel right to turn a blind eye either. To let due reverence and misplaced faith undermine the sanctity of the office she holds. Jean doesn’t have the heart to condemn him outright. Certainly not in the same way she may have chewed up and spat out her comrades in the Knights…but there are rules in place for a reason. Rules she has a duty to enforce. 

It’s conflicting to say the least, but her own sense of honour holds fast, hands settling against the slope of her hips as she stares Venti down with the same kind of disappointed expression one might expect of a disapproving mother.

@boundlesswanderers asked: Rather curious the boy looked around the laboratory he just had stumbled into, until his eye spotted the Harbinger working on... well...

"What are you doing?"

[Saw the pictures you reblogged and had to send some lost little Kaeya your way]

common are the days where dottore doesn't even bother to leave his lab, and this is no different. hours upon hours pass, tests are performed and methods altered, reports are sent and received, the usual routine. rarely does anything ever interrupt that routine, so the one time a quiet, curious voice is the thing that does, it's enough to surprise him temporary silence. he finally faces the boy properly, confusion contorting his expression into a frown. had he not been incredibly busy, and stressed because of it, he could have found the wide-eyed, curious look on his face amusing. it’s reminiscent of the kind he’s used to seeing on sucrose, perhaps that’s why. but, amusement aside, this is really the last place a child should be. he needs to leave.

finally, he shakes the several papers in one hand and gestures to them with a small nod of his head. " i'm reviewing these reports given to me about new developments—and unfortunate casualties—of the most recent series of automaton trials– " before that goes on too long, he cuts himself off with an annoyed sigh; that explanation is likely to fly over his head. " ...i'm reading about a science project. " his own words bring a scowl to his face. it almost feels insulting to simplify his work in such a way.

" how did you get here anyway? was no one watching you? " the immediate idea is to drop him right back out in the hall until someone more willing to babysit tracks him down, but who knows how long that could take. there's also no way he's letting him stay inside until then either. unfortunately, it seems his options are limited.

" actually, it doesn't matter, i don't care. the point is you shouldn't be here. " the rest of that report is going to have to wait until he’s alone again. reluctantly, he stands from the stool with a huff and leads kaeya out by the bottom of his sleeve as fast as he can without dragging the poor thing. " come on. with any luck, it won't take long to find someone else. the quicker we can make you their problem, the better. "

@boundlesswanderers​ chose an embrace w/ Kaeya from here

Little Kae all but jumps at his older self to give him a tight embrace

Kaeya is nearly laughing as the young boy flings himself into the Captain’s arms, rocking back a step before wrapping him up in a snug hug.

“Well, young one. We’re in high spirits today.”

@boundlesswanderers​ asked: ‘ it’s not as bad as you’re making it. ’ Lumine to Albedo? 

SICK MUSES

“I’m not making a fuss.” Albedo’s tone is as soft as ever as he looks over the injuries on Lumine’s body. He hopes that Lumine doesn’t make a habit of downplaying how much she needs help, but it could also be the fact she isn’t actually aware of how bad said injury is. Shock, maybe?

Not that Albedo wants to spend forever doting on her. Such an idea is already uninteresting. While Lumine is a good friend and Albedo wouldn’t hesitate to be there for her whenever, actually performing menial tasks such as playing doctor is beneath him.

“You need to stay off your leg for a couple of days,” Albedo says, tone already dismissive. “It would cause greater injury if you tried to move around before you healed. I can send for first aid supplies if you need them, but I would recommend resting in the meantime.”

@boundlesswanderers​ ⬩⬩⟢ cont.

“ ...Do I have any idea how much you missed me? Maybe just a little. ”

He’d only finish her sentence because Aether definitely wasn’t crying either! The reach he’d made to wipe at his face was just him cleaning the dirt off his cheeks, that was all! After all, he had ended up in a pretty awkward spot -- with his being catapulted off a cliff face by a pretty vicious Ruin Guard just minutes before she’d came running up to him and all.

In fact, the ache from his careening down a mountain side was the only thing keeping him from springing to his feet and rushing his sister for the most heartfelt reunion hug of their lives! But...she could probably see that much with the grimace that mixed itself in with his teary eyed smile, huh?

“ Between you and me though, I think I almost was dead. Mt. Aocang isn’t really the softest thing to fall off of, you know? ” Maybe lifting a hand in her direction would be enough to ask for a little help.

@boundlesswanderers ( LUMINE&KAEYA ) continued from here / please reply using beta editor if you wish to continue

The Traveler remained in her spot as the Cavalry Captain started to drink down the glass of water he had provided. While she had a weak stomach when it came to those who cannot keep their stomach contents down, she was ready to thrust a waste bin into his hands should he need it. It was what friends do, isn't it? Such a concept was albeit strange for her, despite the vast amount of people she has met through her travels in Teyvat.

Before here, it had always been her brother who was better equipped with establishing bonds. Not her. But without him at her side, she had to learn how to open up her hand for those who offered her aid—and the friends that came with it.

At the words that followed her inquiry, her golden gaze narrowed. While she didn't say anything, she made it blatantly clear that she didn't believe him. While that may be convincing to anyone else, Lumine had a feeling in her gut that there was more to it.

But, it wasn't her business, and if he didn't want to share with her, than who was she to force him? Instead, her gaze softened as she stepped forward, her fingers brushing along his shoulder. "You work too hard," she scolded him gently, "so take it easy, okay? If there's anything you may need, just say so." With a gentle squeeze, she retracted her hand once more.

“work can wait. you need rest.” - Kaeya for Albedo

SLEEPY MEME / accepting

Albedo's hands are trembling: a sure sign that he's beyond exhausted. He rarely feels the need for sleep, being a man of artificial creation, rather than born like most. The tiredness and sleepiness is usually something Albedo can ignore and work through, but there are also those moments when someone has to remind him he still needs rest.

When Kaeya speaks, Albedo pauses in his work to study his hands. His fingers are trembling, which would explain why his handwriting had gotten messier. "Oh."

Albedo's mildly surprised. He hadn't felt it moments ago, too engrossed in his work. But now that his flow of thought's been interrupted, Albedo can feel that dizzying rush of exhaustion wash over him, causing him to sit down abruptly.

"Perhaps you're right," Albedo murmurs. "I didn't even think about that, my apologies, Kaeya." He offers a smile, then decides that his chair is currently the most comfortable place to rest.

"I'll take a quick nap. Would that suffice?"
