SOMETIME IN DECEMBER WITH SNOW

[personal profile] vapour 2021-12-25 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
[ Normally, finding a strange little creature out in the snow wouldn't be a huge surprise, especially in Noctium when outside of the congested urban population, but considering the familiarity to a certain someone's Exuvia he remembers very well and the fact the poor little guy was shivering and looking very miserable, Childe has carefully picked up the small dragon on his way home. Keeping him huddled in his parka after having gently wrapped his own scarf around the dragons neck and head to keep his head warm, the harbinger makes the trek back to his and Zhongli's residence without incident. Once inside, he'll close the door and come to very gently pull the dragon from his parka and cradle it. He's admittedly not 100% this is Zhongli, but he's 99.5% sure, and he hasn't seen the other around since he left earlier in the day, so he thinks it's probably a fair guess considering how easily it let him take it home. ]

There, no more snow. This is much better, right? [ He brings the dragon over to the fireplace, it currently put out but it doesn't take long at all to rekindle the fire. They don't need such a thing with the technology of this place, but the fireplace reminds Childe of home, and so he's taken to keeping it for atmosphere as well as a little extra warmth. ] How's this?

[ giving the little dragon an affectionate pat at the head between its antlers, Childe stands to go put his coat away and get something in the kitchen to warm them both up. ] Just relax here, Xiansheng, I'll get you all warmed up in no time.

[ oh? Childe pauses, glancing to the little dragon before smiling. He puts down what he's doing and licks Dragon!li up, cradling him a little before gently offering him his shoulder to climb up on. ] I need my hands for this, but you're welcome to stay with me if you prefer here over the fire. [ is all he says as he returns to back to putting together a soup, but also has put a kettle on the stove for tea. In this form, he's sure Zhongli's will still plenty enjoy hot tea and some bamboo shoot soup. ]

[ for Childe, their synchrony helps a lot. it's only recently from their fallout that he realized how much it calms him and keeps him in a mentally sound place. it's a little bit co-dependent but he hasn't spoken to Zhongli if it, afraid it will make the other feel obligated to be around him in that way. Although things between them are much better, Childe struggles both with trust issues in concerns to Zhongli's feelings towards him as much as coming to terms with what he did to someone he's supposedly in love with. I he doesn't

Luckily, these thoughts don't plague him now. He likes the company while cooking, and makes a small aw sound at feeling the rubbing against his cheek. He doesn't know exactly why, but he feels just so content like this, spending time with Zhongli even if not in his human form. As he does the soup, he will offer small pieces of the ingredients for the small dragon to eat in order to "test" if they are cooking properly and to his liking. I've all the ingredients are in the pot and the broth is approved by the little dragon, Childe will let it cook while he goes to make the tea now that the water is boiling.
]

It I put it in a teacup, you can still drink it in that form, right? Or would a milk saucer be better... ?

[ good thing Childe knows how to easily take hints, so he'll simply from and go to move towards the gestured-at cupboard for the teacups to get both Zhongli and himself one each. ]

Don't burn your tongue by being too impatient, okay? [ is all he says when the water is boiled and he's put it into the teapot to brew before finally pouring some into the teacups a short time later. He'll let Zhongli have the chance to climb down his shoulder to get at his teacup on the counter as Childe moves back to the pot of soup to stir it. ]
