I'll let you know what I find out. Be careful out there, yeah?

[ If Lumine can't find her door... maybe that means Kokomi found a way out of here. One can only hope, anyway. It's better than assuming the alternative. ]

[unalign]

I don't need to tell you to do the same thing, yes?

[ a.k.a. be careful too, pls tell her if you'll disappear tyvm ]

[lackluster]

[ he will try his very best to send her a note before that happens. ]

No, but I appreciate the sentiment anyway. It's always nice to know that you care about me.

[ there is denial on the tip of her tongue BUT YOU KNOW WHAT, she's too tired to argue. ]

It hurts to know that you think I don't.

[lackluster]

[ Wow, talk about an unexpected message. That was supposed to be a joke, but now... ]

Well, you shouldn't.

[unalign]

[ giving more ammo to her shadow, nice ]

That's my choice to make, not yours.

[lackluster]

You're making things more complicated for yourself, you know?

[ It's not like he's going to stop being a Harbinger— as much as he'd like to go on adventures with her. ]

[unalign]

[ pls, like she'd ask him to stop being a harbinger. ]

Yes, well. I'd rather make things complicated for myself than other people doing it on my behalf.

[lackluster]

Suit yourself, but I don't know if it's worth the trouble. There are better people to worry about.

[unalign]

Pot calling the kettle black, I see. When you start worrying about better people, then I'll get off your back.

[lackluster]

Then who am I supposed to be worrying about?

[ He's going to assume that Lumine isn't talking about his family because that would mean... Well, he's just going to assume that isn't the case for everyone's benefit. ]

[unalign]

[ ... she'll kick his face when she sees him again. ]

Yourself. Teucer and your little sister. Your family.

[lackluster]

Worrying about my family is a given, but another Harbinger is looking after them too. I'm sure they'll be fine while I'm stuck down here trying to find my way out.

[unalign]

Focus on that, then.

[ if she finds a way out, she's shoving him into that exit first before herself. ]

And if you find out anything about Kokomi, let me know. Thanks again, Childe.

[lackluster]

Fine. You got it.

[ When has Childe ever listened to anyone, but he isn't going to bother saying anything else.

At least he'll drag Lumine with him if he ever finds the exit. ]
