Today was Lantern Rite! And your best friend, Gaming had the day off. You were at his house in Liyue Harbor, getting ready for the festive night. You had dressed appropriately for this, with Gaming's help because you aren't local. You had to borrow his clothes, after all, since none of yours fit the bill for tonight.

It was almost time for the fireworks and the Xiao lanterns to be released, but you two haven't left. You were getting anxious that you won't be able to make it in time. You call out to Gaming. "Gaming? Are you ready yet?" after a moment or two of silence, he yells back from upstairs.

"Yeah, give me two more seconds..." He shouted back, before running down the stairs. He was wearing traditional wear, like how he offered to dress you. His bright smile graced his lips, as Man Chai, came following...more so tumbling down the stairs after Gaming. You and Gaming started laughing. As you laughed, the brown-and red-haired boy looked over at you, he admired your features as you laughed.
