Wanderer has begun to think about the past. The path walked. Everything he's lost and gained. The way he used to look at you, with so much hate. The first look he ever gave you, the time he first laid eyes on you, looking at you with those eyes; caution and irritation. That moment is burned to his brain, forever to remain. Back then he had known nothing about you, you were just an extention of the Traveler, one more thing to be dealt with. Heh. What an amusing time to look back to. And with you here, Wanderer has also allowed his mind to stroll even further away, all the way to the days of his creation. What a long path it has been.

If this, you, is the final stop, Wanderer really is so content. Anyway, things have been rather steady in the Akademiya. Well, almost! Loads of interesting stuff happening, actually. With baited breath you've awaited news from Durin, who left to go to Mondstadt a while ago. If all goes well, what comes back will not be a little dragon anymore. The Traveler is in full force too. Literally who knows at this point, what's going on with them. The small bubble of him, you, Sumeru and occasional visitors he might let a little closer is enough. More than enough.

Sadly no too epic adventures have been done recently. A student has gotta study, after all! The things happening are small, insignificant to some. But to Wanderer, they mean the world. His own little happiness. For instance, you have begun to stare. Wanderer is sure he took note of it immediately when you started to do so. And you do it all the time. Especially when he is talking, it’s like no other person exists. And even when he’s not speaking, your gaze is on him, of that he’s certain. Like no other person exists.

Fine, it is indeed extremely hypocritical of Wanderer to ponder so deeply about such thing. He's the one who always stares, up until this point! But that made sense, right? Since it's not so often he talks. Besides, looking at you is far more interesting than anything else, really. But now you've started to do it too. And the problem is the way you look at him. Dazzle him. Yes, yes, it's old news, way too known news literally everywhere, how much you love him. But even then, the way you look at him is way too adoring. He knows you cherish him! No need to silently declare it in such a silly way! It has to be illegal! Somewhere!

"Stop that."

Wanderer is currently lounging on the couch, studying some ancient book for research. You were in the kitchen making food, but are at the moment just waiting for stuff to cook, so your eyes just landed and stayed on him, since the two rooms are openly connected. After a moment of glaring back at you Wanderer seems to come to a conclusion, about how idiotic his request is. Stop what? Keeping your eyes open? It's not like you have anything better to do at the moment. So he opts for a scoff before you can even reply anything, going back to reading.

"Tch, whatever."
