[every time I forget your journal name and then look it up I'm like "oh yeah" like an idiot
ANYWAY RNG set this as pre-fight so Childe can be found in the restaurant kitchen!! Idk if Siff would come in here for no reason but they can follow the sounds of someone cooking, idk. Childe glances up as they enter and greets them with a friendly wave.]
[ journal being the chara's name is a rare feat i do not blame you at all
Siffrin will in fact follow the sounds of cooking, curious as they are. At that, they shake their head and offer a wave in return with a small smile. ]
I'm not really the cook in my team back home, so... don't think I'd be able to do much here outside cut up vegetables. It smells nice so I thought I'd peek.
You're welcome to have some when it's ready. [It is affection week... and he just likes to cook] I'm still in the habit of cooking for too many people.
[I don't know what he's making that requires too many braincells for what happened today]
Mm, a bit of both. The habit started with my family, and I fell out of it for a while, but I got back into it in hell once I got access to a decent kitchen.
A young chef, hm? I've known a couple of those. [Sweet Xiangling... he does miss her, even though he hasn't been back to Liyue in years.] Do you travel with a large group, then?
There's five of us including myself. The preteen, Bonnie, is the youngest of the group. They're still too young to jump in battle seriously with the rest of us so they help out where they can.
[ And occasionally come to finish an enemy off with a whack of their pan anyway. So funny. ]
[LOOKS AT THE TIME. MY GOD....... WE CAN MAKE THIS TUESDAY,,,]
Well, one of my tasks is dressing someone up and having them appear in public--would you be interested in doing that? If there's a task you want to do, I don't mind helping out in return.
[Or they can raincheck for later if they want! He's flexible... he doesn't expect to get something for nothing]
[ TUESDAY AGAIN? NO PROBLEM AND oh boy. But Childe has been nice and called them friends so saying no would feel bad and - ]
Sure. I could probably do that. I had a few friends pick outfits for me to wear for festivities in Heaven so, should be fine. [ VIRCHE YVES AND LUCAS I MISS YOUUU. ] I think I'm pretty set with mine.. but maybe at a later time? If you don't mind.
[ Were it in reverse, Siffrin would also expect to have returned the favor too so this works just fine. ]
[Every day is Tuesday at your June's something something]
Great! It's a deal. [Gestures!! Let us go towards the mall.] I'll do my best, but you might have to help me choose--I haven't really shopped for anyone but my siblings in a long time.
Mmm, as long as it's comfortable wear I'm not too worried. But I'll help narrow things down if needed. [ As they follow along.. ] How many siblings do you have?
Also, predictably, yappertron3000 seizes this opportunity...]
Six! Three older, three younger. [Probably. I will grasp this headcanon until hyv shoots me.] Though I've only ever bought clothes for the younger ones--mostly my little sister.
Hmm... I enjoy some, though I don't usually have time to play any regularly. [Except for fighting, but that's different.] I don't think I recognize most of these.
Really? I used to spar with someone back in Heaven, but he's not here... and I'd hate to start getting rusty again. [ Nodding along. Yeah, a bunch of this stuff really is in the way. Why sports when you can SPAR. ]
Can't say I've fought hand-to-hand. From my group, that's Isabeau who fought with his fists. But I can give it a punch if you don't want to find a knife.
[ APPLE STORE TIME. Siffrin is already settled, working on a flower crown. Yippeee. Though, looks like they've already set aside a couple of single flowers, all different kinds. ]
Childe, hello. Not a bad place for a lazy day... [ Chill and quiet from the insanity crowds today. ]
[Apple store time!!! He is happy to be out here Touching Grass, just like pretty much everyone is, probably. Though he's more cautious about the new areas this time after the Cage Incident, these locations have never actually done any last damage (aside from their use as murder scenes, of course) so it's probably fine.]
I guess I shouldn't be surprised that it took this long for us to find somewhere nice, haha.
[ The Cage Incident is so valid. Siffrin watching everyone go weird and insane in it from afar like nope that won't be me. Meanwhile, hand some grass and they're going right in.]
I wonder why that is... are these locations just random? I know the other side tends to be but I wonder if this side follows some kind of pattern.
We can start with the more broad areas? The more individuals ones in each of them get a bit creative.
Bikini Bottom is the one I visit a lot, because of its beach. [ The closest thing to "home." ] Whoville is a nice enough village but its always changing depending on the time of day... Oz is very.. whimsical? It's like out of a fairytale.

no subject
That's a pretty large family you have. [ Distantly, they wonder if.. ] The younger ones do seem easier to spoil.
no subject
I might be a little guilty of that... but kids don't stay kids for very long at all, right? It does them no harm.
[Every Sephora employee ever disagrees but okay]
no subject
I think there's no harm in it, especially when it makes the kids happy.
