-- Inside the Serenitea Pot --
Lumine: Yo!
Xiangling: Welcome back! You're just in time for dinner.
Lumine: I had dinner before coming here, so I'm good.
Xiangling: Aww but I made enough for four..
Lumine: I'm sorry.
Xiangling: Just for a little bit???
Lumine: I'm only here to rest, Master Jean wants us to regroup early tomorrow so I need to catch up on some z's.
Xiangling: But-
Chongyun: Xiangling? Who're you talking to? Oh, welcome back Lumine!
Lumine: I'm back~
Chongyun: Dinner's almost ready so you can rest up while you're at it.
Lumine: Oh actually-
Chongyun: Wait here, I'll go get some extra utensils.
Lumine: Ah...
Xiangling: So...?
Lumine: I guess I'll be joining you guys. What're you making anyways?
Xiangling: I'm making Qince stir fry topped with slime condensate, and Crab Roe Tofu filled with Whopperflower Nectar!
Lumine: Sounds... delicious??
Chongyun: Does it really?
Lumine: I guess not.
Xiangling: Oh the food is ready, can you go get Fischl? She's upstairs in the library.
Lumine: Yes ma'am!
Chongyun: I'll help you plate the food.
———
Lumine: Knock knock.
Fischl: Come in.
Lumine: Isnt this the part where you're supposed to say 'who's there?'
Fischl: Why indulge myself in childish talk when I can have you enter the vicinity straight away?
Lumine: Awe that's sweet of you, I'm coming in.
Fischl: Welcome back Traveller, resting here for the night I presume?
Lumine: Yeah but I kinda got roped into eating dinner. Oh and Xiangling said she wants you to come down, the food is ready.
Fischl: Dinnertime already? My I've been reading this book nonstop that I must've lost track of the time.
Lumine: How're the books in the library?
Fischl: I've yet to read them all but the ones I have finished are quite the tale, where could you perhaps have gotten these books?
Lumine: I kinda went around places and took some random books I found. Nevermind that, let's go eat!
Fischl: Very well. If you dont mind, I need to tidy up the desk so go ahead and help yourselves.
Lumine: 'Kaay.
———
Lumine: The princess will be coming down soon.
Xiangling: Okaaay~
Chongyun: I prepared tea, want some?
Lumine: You guys dont have to act like my servants you know? But yes I will have some.
Fischl: This is our repayment to you for allowing us to stay here.
Lumine: Oh hey Fischl.
Xiangling: You were cooped up in the library for the whole day, Fischl. Could've at least helped in the kitchen.
Chongyun: You're one to talk, all you've been doing is wasting our ingredients on stupid dishes. Who knows if they're even edible?!
Chongyun: I, for one, actually cleaned the house and tended to the grapevines along with the abundance of plants outside the mansion.
Fischl: I witnessed you out from the library window, you were breaking a remarkable sweat outside.
Xiangling: I'm a chef and chefs specialize in cooking, of course I'd be in the kitchen.
Fischl: And I'm a princess from another realm, I need to study up on the culture of this world.
Chongyun: You're not even-
Lumine: Dont you dare.
Fischl: Hm?
Chongyun: I said nothing.
Xiangling: Why dont you quit being an exorcist and become Lumine's personal maid or something.
Chongyun: What??
Lumine: That's not a bad idea.
Chongyun: Don't agree with them!?
Fischl: I can make the arrangements for a dress, akin to a maid uniform, be made.
Chongyun: No please.
Xiangling: I can ask his parents for his measurements.
Chongyun: ...
Lumine: Ok but are we gonna eat or not? If you three are gonna keep messing around I might as well head to bed.
Xiangling: Ah right, the food!
Lumine: Maid, I thought you were getting me tea?
Chongyun: I'm not a maid!!
Fischl: Might as well be.
Chongyun: Why bulli.
