While we've been here, you mean? Or did you move away? You mentioned a palace...

[apoisoncary]

A bit of both. He's getting there in age and he doesn't enforce a price for his services.

...I thought everything cost money outside, though.

[apoisoncary]

It does. He's just too kind to ask for it.

I was sending him money from my paycheck... [ she's here though ] I know Granny won't let him starve.

[outdistanced]

That sounds frustrating. Even if it's out of kindness...

So you have to get back to help him, is that it?

[apoisoncary]

It is. He's been through so much in life that I wish he would be a bit more greedy. However, it's because of that kindness he took me in in the first place.

I would like to get back to help him.

Well... here's hoping we can both get out of this okay, somehow. We can't just leave them waiting on us forever, right?

[ he offers a smile. it's faint, and doesn't reach his eyes, but they need to remind themselves of the goal once in a while. maybe it will help to try. elysia and zhongli would probably want to them to, anyway. ]

[ he's hanging out with glass half empty here. she won't dash those hopes because she knows it's important for people to have them.

We really can't. What does your tower look like?

[outdistanced]

[ the thing is, he's also a glass half empty kind of person. but elysia and zhongli were the opposite, he thinks, so... maybe it's worth trying. even though it isn't really working. ]

You want to see the Tower...?

[ surprised... but okay. he think about it for a moment and then the area shifts into a grassy field with a stage on one side, and a racetrack on the other. a few trees offer shade here and there from the sun filtering through the dome above their heads. ]

It's not all like this, but I spent a lot of my spare time here.
