[ The aftermath of the cursed gemstones had left Zhongli a bit more serious and a bit more antisocial than usual. He maintained a distance from Childe for a time soon afterward, but he knows that the other man isn't holding it against him, or so he believes.
There's an uncharacteristic noise from Zhongli as he watches Childe from nearby, noting the strange behavior and only getting more worried as time passes. He's quick to move into the kitchen following the knife being stabbed into the cutting board and Zhongli's gloved hand has Childe's wrist gripped lightly in his own as he inspects the damage. ] Childe. You must be more careful...
[ There's an evident frown on his usually stoic features as he looks back into the other man's eyes. There's a sense of urgency and protectiveness that Zhongli has normally but he seems more inclined to act upon it now for some reason? He doesn't really think too deeply about it as Childe's injury is of greater concern to him right now. ] I have a first aid kit in the bathroom. I will be back shortly.
