3rd person POV

"WE'RE BACKKK!"

Kaeya had yelled as his loud group behind him had followed. The wooden door of Angel's Share behind him closing softly, The smell of alcohol and warmth present, as everyone entered and found their seats.

Traveler, Kaeya, and two unknown others had all found a table of 4 chairs to plop down at knowing they'd be here for the long hours of the night.

The laughing, and boisterous of others inside of the tavern had been almost overbearingly loud. As it was beginning to strike 7pm when all were off of work for the day. The 4 patrons didn't help but only add to the happy atmosphere as Kaeya was a regular who knew most that visted the tavern. Traveler also being a popular all around Mondtstadt.

The ginger haired man with blue eyes and gray clothes had been contributing to the laughter in the two story building, He was clinging onto Kaeya ever since they first stepped in. The other out of the two had been quiet for most of it, Only listening and sometimes responding to Travelers questions.

"Hello Kaeya! Traveler!..."

Going silent for a moment as they had realized the other guests, Slowly motioning to them with a smile to acknowledge them.

"What could I get for the 4 of you today?"

One of the many waiters that were at the tavern had approached the table, their voice oddly soft and comforting even in the loud building. Smiling at their lips, waiting patiently for orders to be written down and placed.

"Two dandelion wines, Apple cider, and... Uh- Zhongli?"

Kaeya spoke in an ecstatic tone, loud enough to be heard, Until he had gotten to Zhonglis unknown order.

"By any chance do you have Osmanthus wine?"

Zhongli had asked with curiosity. Once confirmed they did, The waiter had left.

...

Time had passed, It was well into the night. People had come and go, leaving the tavern almost empty except for the original 4 that had come. Once the waiters shifts had ended, The night time bartender had come in, Specifically because of the remaining guests that had finally arrived home after a couple weeks.

"Traveler, Who is that hunk of meat?"

Childe had jokingly said rather loudly because of his drunken state. Pointing towards a red head who had just walked in as the rest of the workers were leaving. Zhongli looking over as well, taking interest in said perosn. Traveler laughed, Finding his language funny, and being the 1 of 2 only sober ones.

"Master Diluc! We're back, It's good to see you after some time."

Traveler had grinned towards him as they had caught his attention, a small nod back, he had walked over swiftly, His common power walk noticeable.
He had approached the table with speed, standing behind Zhonglis chair with a hand on the table right between him and Traveler.

"It's good to see you all back safely, And with friends no less."

A faint genuine smile towards the Traveler as his words carried a sincere meaning. Reaching out, grabbing empty glasses of all but Kaeya and Childe.
Traveler had nodded, Smiling, About to speak before a knight had burst in.
