Perhaps this was a mistake.

Hu Tao had somehow convinced you and the rest of the dorm — Rosalia and Keqing, to doll up and arrive fashionably on time to a karaoke session with the collective remainder of your class, to celebrate yet another successful year of university, and the three of you walk into pure, beautiful chaos.

Childe and Yoimiya are attempting to duet a Korean song; Venti is already completely wasted, and drooling all over Diluc; Aether is shamelessly flirting with Scaramouche in a corner; and Hu Tao is being piggybacked by Zhongli.

As for the rest of the class, Kaveh is bickering with Alhaitham; Jean is panicking as Barbara attempts to outdrink Kaeya; Xiangling is chasing down a fleeing Paimon for emergency ingredients; Chongyun is completely inebriated, as he readily catches the microphone Yoimiya throws him — after she gave up on the hangul Childe is ebulliently singing, and he saunters onto the stage; Furina finally succeeds in jumping onto Hu Tao’s back, so now Zhongli is carrying two menaces; Wriothesley is sipping tea in the corner, calmly observing as Sigewinne is suddenly roped into being chased by Xiangling as well; so on, so forth.

Childe catches sight of you and grins tipsily, his Korean pronunciation atrocious but still comprehensible, “외로운 날들이여 모두 다 안녕!”
