Pov: Scaramouche

Do you ever get bored as hell out of nowhere with nothing to do?? Yeah, that was me. The bordest bitch on the planet.

It was the middle of the day and I had nothing to do. No orders or commands to give or take, the day was just entirely dry. Trying ever so desperately to entertain myself, I went to the dawn winery. On my way, I stumbled across a nice lake.

This is kinda pretty 

I sat down to enjoy the view. It smelled nice and made me feel relaxed. This could possibly cure my boredom. As everything was going smooth and nice, a ticking bomb exploded. And no, I'm not being metaphorical, something exploded. I didn't want to move from the spot I was standing AT ALL. These are rare moments to cherish, fuck the bomb that was going off. Just as I thought I was going to continue peacefully, the smell of smoke filled the air.

I just can't get a nice moment now can I 

I started walking to the area where the bomb had gone off. The landscape was flat so it was pretty clear to see where it was. As I got to the spot I stopped in my tracks. This red beanstalk tangerine water man was right in front of me, fighting off about 5 hillichurls. No way in hell was I about to mess myself up in that. I quickly turned around and took a step. Of course that cliche twig was in my path to ruin my day further. I stepped on it as this man defeated the last hillichurl. He noticed me.....dammit.

Childe: Scaramouche?

Scaramouche: no.

I started full on running away. no no no not this tall ass orange riding hood messing up my day, Oh gods please don't torture me like this. I ran about half a mile away from that...thing. I would not call it a waste of energy at all. I was simply just doing my part to survive. As I started walking I realized I had gone in the opposite direction of the winery. This luck was just as bad as that bennet boy. 

I'm not too familiar with the direction of the winery but I'm sure I'll be able to get there. I am a Fatui Harbinger after all. I can do what ever the hell I want, I know no boundaries. I started heading in the direction I ran from. My hat got caught in ten branches that hour. Those trees are not standing anymore :)

As I neared a dirty path (please make them stone ones, this is kinda gross) I noticed footprints behind me. Turning around, I saw a bright red scarf swoosh behind a half dead tree (oh i wonder who did that)

From my description, you could obviously tell it was Childe behind me, am i correct?

Scaramouche: Come out you tall ass

Childe: I though i was hiding well. 

 Scaramouche: Can you NOT follow me, I have important business to do.

Childe: I'm sorry, I cant take you too seriously when you have little twigs n' branches on your hat

Scaramouche: Why you-

Childe: are they hitchhikers? I never knew you cared about little twigs~

Scaramouche: SHUT UP. For your information, these are dead twigs, remains from the many trees I burned

Childe: what did the trees ever do to you

Scaramouche: MY HAT

Childe: Your hat is too big

Scaramouche: your body's too big

Childe: thats cause your sma-

.........

Let's just say I buried someone in that dirt path. Sadly, the corpse had awoken and started following me to the winery. I assumed he would just get drunk when we got there. He was annoying on the way though, complaining about his legs hurting, this and that. This is the soul reason I like traveling alone, why can't no one respect my boundaries. As we neared the winery I saw a familiar face. The face of that traveler I wanted to kill. I saw him and his emergency snack. Childe got excited like a little puppy wanting meat from the table. He could do as he wants, as long as I have nothing to do with it. I was deciding if I wanted to take off my hat for it was not in the best condition...and the honorary knight of Mondstadt might recognize me. Then again, where would i place it for the time being.

Childe: It's the traveler :DD let's say hi!

Scaramouche: hmm let me think.

......

Childe: Are you done thinking

Scaramouche: yes, the answer is NO

Childe: aww why not?

Scaramouche: NO. I'd rather do the god damn "Fandago" than that 

Childe: BET, let's see you do it

Scaramouche: I was joking

I waited for the traveler to exit the winery before I started to go in, leaving my hat in the "lost and found"

As we walked in, we beheld a sight....a strange sight. There was this blue haired man with an eyepatch in an Elsa costume, singing let it go while standing on one of the tables. To my left there was a tall woman, clearly drunk, telling a blue haired boy to return his library book. On my right there was what looked to be a woman with pigtails, singing "Booyork" as loud as possible.

Childe: this is a sight to behold

Scaramouche: yes....it is.

A man with long red hair, the owner of the winery looked at us while trying to pick up the eyepatch Elsa from the table.    

Diluc: table for two?

Scaramouche: y-yeah sure?

Diluc: take the one over there

Scaramouche: O-okay

we sat down at the table awkwardly i might add. 

worker: what would you like to drink

Childe/Scaramouche: a plain wine please

worker: alright

The worker left the scene, grabbing our drinks. oh my god what the hell is wrong with this place.

The last thing i remember from that night was a chandelier, dancing, and falling into a river. The amount of chaos in that single sentence was too much to beat I understand. But I woke up to an even bigger surprise after that.
