"I'm telling you, you should just give up on Tartaglia." Aether says, clearly upset, tapping his fingers on the table as he crosses his legs. He says it to a man who was sitting in front of him who was obviously looking confused.

"I don't quite understand why you would want me to do so..?" Zhongli says, confused. Wondering what had happened to have made Aether say that sudden input.

"That man is nothing but trouble. Sure, you would see him picking flowers, but the next thing you see is him killing an entire camp of hilichurls." Aether says, with a tone of anger. 

"I mean, I'm not going to deny that he's very unpredictable but, that isn't a good enough reason to just leave him alone, is it?" Zhongli says, clearly focused on Childe's good points and trying to convince Aether that Childe isn't as bad as he thinks.

"I'm not going to disagree with you there but, something about him just makes me pissed." Aether says, gritting his teeth.

"You must be drunk, would you like me to accompany you home?" Zhongli suggests. Judging from Aether's behavior, Zhongli was convinced that he drank a few bottles and got a little tipsy.

"What? I'm not drunk. In fact, I don't have enough time for those." Aether says. While he could drink if he wanted to, he just didn't have the time and the right atmosphere to do so. Zhongli gets even more confused now that he sees that Aether was in the right mind so, the things he says are his true thoughts. Did he really hate Tartaglia that much?

"Ugh, speak of the devil. Prince Charming himself." Aether says, rolling his eyes. Zhongli looks over to see Childe, slowly making his way on over to their table. He was waving and smiling as he was walking too. Such a charming man. If not only for his mischievous attitude, he would've been the most popular guy here.

"Hi~ How are you all doing?" Childe asks, smiling. Aether, without turning his head, looks at Childe. He will admit that he was a very good looking man, but his attitude says otherwise.

"I'm doing quite great." Zhongli replies.

"Just dandy." Aether says, sarcastically. Childe comes on over and sits on the chair next to Aether but, Aether immediately pushes his own chair away from the one that had just arrived. Childe smirks and chuckles at this.
