Time Skip - Back in Sumeru

Alhaitham's House - Midday

"F/N! You're FINALLY back. I thought I was going to die alone."

"Kaveh, please, don't overreact. I'm sure it wasn't-"

Kaveh silenced F/N by passing them a piece of paper, "Read it."

F/N rolled their eyes, reading it. They frowned, scanning over each word very carefully. They chuckled, looking at Kaveh, "How interesting..."

"Alhaitham is going to kill us when he comes back if he finds out."

"We'll discuss this later," F/N muttered, peaking into the house. They fell silent, "Cy? Do you mind... helping us tidy up the house?"

Cyno sighed, "Fine. But if Tighnari comes looking for me in a bad mood, I'm blaming you. I told him I'd give him some plants from Liyue when I returned, and he knows we're coming back today."

"Right. Come in, then."

The three of them walked into the house, all going into separate rooms to clean the house efficiently. None of them spoke to each other, since they all somehow managed to get heavily engrossed in wiping tables. Honestly, how do you even do that?

After a while, there was a sudden knocking at the door.

"DON'T LET THEM IN-"

"SHUT UP, KAVEH!" F/N walked over to the door, opening the door.

"...CYNO! IT'S FOR YOU!" F/N yelled into one of the other rooms.

"WHAT?"

"Can you stop yelling?" Tighnari muttered.

"Sorry," F/N replied, "One more time. Promise. THE DOOR, CYNO. IT'S FOR YOU."

Cyno muttered something as he made his way to the door, "Oh. Right. I forgot about that while cleaning up books."

Tighnari raised an eyebrow, "Excuse me?"

"Come in, come in. Help us clean up Alhaitham's house before he gets home. Kaveh promised to tell us what happened if we helped him."
