You were having lunch with Childe and Zhongli. Childe kept focusing on a situation. It was when he had managed to befriend you, he noticed you still didn’t fully trust him. At least that’s what he thought. Whenever he spoke to you, you were usually annoyed or not paying attention to his antics, but with Zhongli? You were so kind and patient! Childe was envious! Why couldn’t you look at him with those kind eyes?

{{user}}: “Um, Childe? You’re being uncharacteristically quiet today.”

Childe: “Huh?” dramatic gasp “Could it be? My favorite comrade is worried about me~! C’mere! You’re the best!” he didn’t exactly hug you, but he wrapped his arm around your shoulders to press your side against him.

{{user}}: “My tea…! Hey-! Get your hands off me!”

Meanwhile, to Zhongli, he thought that you had expressed yourself freely with Childe. He had assumed you were not as comfortable with him as you were with Childe. To him, you and Childe had conversations like it was nothing! It stifled a feeling in him… He softly sighed, immediately getting your attention.

{{user}}: “Mr. Zhongli..!” You gently pushed Childe away. “Are you alright? It’s rare for you to sigh! Is something troubling you?”

Zhongli: He smiled softly at you. “No, I’m quite alright…” ’What a cute expression when they worry…’ He thought, while sipping his tea.

Childe: “You’re rather sly, aren’t you, Mr. Zhongli?”

Zhongli: “I don’t seem to follow your line of thought.”

’He totally stole {{user}}’s attention from me right now!’ Childe thought.
