͙✧˖°࿐ Did Yue forget about Childe because she was so embarrassed by the kiss?

No, definitely not.

"SHIT!"

"Yue?! What's wrong?!"

"I totally forgot that Childe's waiting for me! How long have I been out?!"

"Wait... That's the Harbinger?!"

"Yes!" she jumped out of bed, "C'mon Xiao! We gotta go!"

With that she bolted out of the room, with Xiao following her shortly after. With how small the Inn actually was, it didn't take long for the two to reach Childe. He was eating what appeared to be his fifth plate of some sort of seafood dish while boredly staring at Smiley Yanxiao's back.

"Hey, um, Childe!"

He turned to them and she awkwardly waved, "Ah, took you long enough. If you wanted to have sex then you could've-"

"WE DID NOT HAVE SEX!"

"You did not just yell that!" Xiao hissed.

"Well I kind of did! And now everyone in Wangshu knows we didn't have sex!"

"I still somehow doubt that," Childe chimed in.

"No one asked you, Fatui. "

"Wonderful. Your fuck buddy hates me-"

"I JUST SAID THAT WE DIDN'T-- MMPH!"

Xiao had covered her mouth with his hand, "Our personal affairs have nothing to do with you. All you need to know is that I'm going to be joining you on your journey to Mondstadt."

Childe raised an eyebrow, "I thought we were just stopping by?"

"Yes! We were! But you see, remember when we had that little conversation about how much time I had spent here?"

With a blush slowly rising to her cheeks, she continued after Childe nodded, "Well, Xiao here accidentally overheard that. And it applied to him, so um... he... we..."

She nervously twiddled her fingers, and Childe wasted no time giving her a smirk, "You had sex?"

"CHILDE I SWEAR TO GOD!"

"Can I kill him?"

"I'd be able to kill a midget like you any day."

"We'll see about that, mortal ."

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: .☽ . :☆ﾟ. ───

The two... did not get along. After five minutes and several times of Childe insinuating and explicitly stating they had sex with a certain odd look in his eye (Yue was not able to place it), the two had started fighting. Not a verbal fight, not a spar, a battle .

Yue was on the sidelines, with a smile on her face as she ate her Almond Tofu. She occasionally gave a little cheer, but mostly ignored the carnage in front of her.

Anything that got within a certain radius of the Harbinger and Yaksha's fight (besides Yue) was completely eradicated. Several small remnants of hilichurl masks were around, along with whopperflower guts and even some of the branches of Abyss Mages.

Dainsleif would be proud.

As she went to get another bite of Almond Tofu, Childe hit the ground in front of her, his daggers out. He quickly looked up and pushed himself back as Xiao smashed into the ground of where he just was. Yue wasn't paying attention though.
