Can I Get Dressed First?

Childe pov

It's four in the morning, and of course that's the perfect time to ask the 11th Harbinger to do a task. The Tsaritsa is obviously a smart Archon. Sadly, it's my job, so I of course accepted the offer even at an ungodly hour when it's - 27° outside. Much warmer then other days atleast.
Of course I have to get dressed now at four in the morning because her majesty wouldn't be to delighted to see me mostly naked. Or she would. I don't know her well enough to determine that...

-

"Good morning Tartaglia." The Cryo Archon - who always seemed to project her voice- boomed.

"Your majesty." Childe replied.

"I have a task for you. As said the messenger I presume."

"Indeed."

"Since you have no current tasks, or places to be, this has to befall on you.

In my mind, I say it should be quite a simple task for you. I am sending you to Sumeru, as a girl in Inazuman attire keeps... Brutally murdering our recruits. We cannot keep getting more as less are open to it, and... They're all dead. "

"... Why can't Dottore go?" he yawned lazily.

" I expect results from you. You may leave. You will be escorted in two days. "

" O-k.."

Amazing. Great. More work. Liyue was hard enough.. At least it's only one person.. Ha! And a girl atleast! We should get better Fatui recruits. If even a girl can kill them then a child could!

Maybe I should pitch that to her majesty... Good boy Childe!

Oh no, I'm so lonely I call myself a good boy... Eh won't be hard to get a girl. Wait that's an entirely different topic-

Two days later, he had everything packed that he needed for Sumeru, and the journey there.

Childe was personally excited to go to Sumeru, mostly because he heard well of their cuisine, and thought it would be a nice change of pace. Usually, as soon as something is heated up in Snezhnaya, it's already frozen again. Sometimes even in houses!

Although he had no spice tolerance.

A tasty death nonetheless.

Another one down. I don't even know why they keep sending them... They are just wasting recourses by now.

Although... They are bound to send someone soon, right? They're not dumb enough to keep me going. Sadly.

What else am I to do to occupy myself? Read? Explore?

...

Something not boring?

Actually thinking about it... They should send someone. How fun would that be? It'd be a great opportunity.
