Author's Point of View:

"She's not just sleeping peacefully, is she?" Albedo suddenly asked, as Thoma was reminded of the topic. His tears almost slipped as he remembered what happened. "Well, it's a long story. Do you want to know about her?" Thoma asked, his voice cracking due to stopping his tears from slipping away.

"Sure, I've been curious for a while." Albedo smiled, but Thoma didn't. Thoma sighed, he wasn't sure on how to start it. "I'm sure the Balladeer told you something about her, but first things first, don't be too shocked. Even she herself doesn't know about this, since I was the one who asked The Raiden Shogun about this matter, so she explained everything to me." Albedo nodded, taking notes of what he was saying.

"Y/N, is not a human. She's a puppet made by The Raiden Shogun and was soon also discarded by her. She was made as a baby and grew into what she is today, and weird enough, she has a true, working heart. She can feel human emotions just as much as we do, but too much is bad for her. And that's what happened today, she's asleep right? That's because she malfunctioned. Too much of human emotions was eating her inside and caused her a panic attack, forgetting things, and sleeping eternally. She's just lucky to have survived through the battles that happened in inazuma, but now, we have to go back where we came from. I don't know how or what she will do to bring her back, but I know she will." Thoma explained, as Albedo's thoughts were satisfied.

"I see.. Well, if that's the case, how does the thoughts she gets makes any sense to her? She herself doesn't know she's not a human, so how do you explain things to her about herself? Like, it's almost impossible to not sound suspicious when you know alot about herself while she doesn't." Albedo asked, while Thoma gave it a quick thought. "About that, we never talk regarding that topic. She despises the Raiden Shogun with great repugnance, she hates talking about her due to her forbidding her from going out of inazuma and taking her freedom away, and which also caused her to be unable to find her twin. She doesn't know her true, biological mother. Which is The Raiden Shogun, that's why she never have been suspicious or wary of me. And also, if you don't know who Raiden Shogun is-"

"No need, I did my research already after I was invited to their festival a few months ago." Thoma smiled for once that day as they walk towards Wangshu Inn to rest, they booked a room for one night, with 2 beds.

"Oh no, there's only 2 beds. I'll sleep on the couch, you two sleep on the bed-" Thoma's suggestion was cut off when albedo sat beside the bed where Y/N was laying down. "It's fine, I'll sleep beside her. She won't know," He playfully winked at him as he turned red from embarrassment.

"Fine, I need rest too, anyway." Thoma sighed as he laid down the bed, it was comfortable enough as he drifted to sleep. Albedo was admiring Y/N's features, she's still fast asleep and her heart is still working, there's still a pulse.

He wondered what caused her to sleep for eternally, so he tried to find something in her body. He went and held her head, trying to find something. He knew there was no reason for her to malfunction if she has a working heart. When his hands came across her waist, he found something weird. He felt a bit bothered about touching her, but his curiosity was above the clouds.

"What's in here?" He mumbled as he lifted her shirt, revealing a paper? Or was it really a paper? "A paper? What for?" He took the paper and read the contents of it.

"Y/N, please take care of yourself. It really is unfortunate on how I failed to catch your blissful heart, but who am I to doubt who you love? As much as I would love to be your special one, I'm not in charged, nor should anyone, be in charge of controlling who you love. But I'm hoping, that even as friends, we meet again.

We shall meet again, somewhere in liyue, my dear companion."

Albedo's eyes scanned every words and found the name of the author of the letter. 'Kaedehara, Kazuha.'

Albedo seemed to be wary and suspicious of the name as he felt a pang of envy upon reading the letter. He and Y/N sounds very close to each other, it seems.

"Sigh, I better not interfere with anything about this. Let me take a good look of her mechanism..." Albedo mumbled to himself, as he soon gave up on it and sighed. "I ended up not finding anything, perhaps only The Raiden Shogun can fix this issue." Albedo mumbled as he soon layed down the bed and fell asleep.

Although, having someone watch you at night didn't make it easy to comfortable sleep. Especially when he's sleeping next to a basically sleeping corpse.

'I can feel eyes on me.... Who will watch us at this hour?'

He sighed and sat up, and immediately, he heard some rustling on the floor. "Hello? Is someone there?" Albedo spoke up, but there was no reply.

When he stood up, he walked out of the room and looked around. Obviously, there was no one outside. When he walked towards the balcony, he felt something sharp being pointed at his neck.

"What did you do to that woman?" A hoarse voice asked as a glimpse of green eyes glowed on the dark. "Before you assume me of S*xual Assault, she's not a human. It's not that easy to understand, but she's basically a puppet. I was looking for something on her mechanism because she malfunctioned." Albedo calmly explained, which made the stranger remove the sharp object away from his neck.

"But that is still no excuse of touching her, I will not let you off that easily." The stranger then disappeared. Albedo figured that it was a spear being pointed towards his neck earlier, since it made a very different sound than swords.

"That was a rather weird approach..." He mumbled to himself as he walked back inside their room and tried to sleep.

When he woke up, Thoma was all ready to leave. "Oh, great timing! We can leave earlier than expected. So uhm, please." He spoke as he pointed towards Y/N's sleeping body.

"Oh, yeah. Sure, I'll carry her on the way there." Albedo smiled as Thoma nodded and thanked him, since he's basically still restless. Albedo and Thoma arrived at the Liyue Harbor, and immediately, they were approached by beidou who was the one who's gonna sail the boat.

"Hey there, Thoma! Are you guys gonna go back to Inazuma?" Thoma smiled at her and nodded, starting a conversation with her while Albedo carried Y/N the whole time. Their conversation didn't last as Thoma knew Albedo was carrying his beloved friend.

"I see, go on! Have fun with your journey and take care," Beidou smiled as they entered the boat, laid Y/N's body down so Albedo can rest.

Albedo laid Y/N's body down the bed under the boat as he sighed and sat beside her. "Something about you fascinates me." He mumbled, holding her hand and carressing it.

"I want to know more about you, Y/N."

To be Continued.
