Even Mondstadt's mighty Grandmaster was not spared of paperwork, hm? "Me? Not really. The weather's pretty nice here." Positively balmy compared to the biting chill that the winds of Snezhnaya carried.
" I doubt he'd notice. I'm betting he's busy with paperwork again. " Kaeya chuckled, picturing Varka being guarded by Jean as he looks through countless of papers and groans in frustration. He allowed the other to wrap his scarf around the fur of the collar. " What about you ? Aren't you cold ? "
Worth a shot. "Wonder what your Grandmaster would think if he saw one of his Captains wearing something like this," he teased lightly, removing his red scarf to wrap it neatly under the fur of the collar. "There."
He's a Captain of Ordo Favonius. Joining the Fatui has never crossed his mind. But he wouldn't do so, regardless. " Kinda. The fur at the collar is nice. "
He watched on as Kaeya emptied his glass again, a few bewildered blinks as the vessel came back to the table empty. He'd heard that wine was supposed to be savoured, given time to rest and breathe, it's notes appreciated on the tongue and nose. Not thrown back like a shot.
" Heh. I'm one of Mondstadt's toughest drinkers to beat. " Which wasn't at all a lie. Few people could rival him when it came to drinking and not getting intoxicated. Diluc often scolded him for challenging his subordinates or Venti to drinking competitions. But Kaeya didn't care. +
He knew when to resist tugging at a thread someone was determined to keep tucked away. Despite how curious he might have been, he let his attention drift away from the eyepatch and towards the two glasses his gracious & mysterious host had poured for them.
" Something like that. " Kaeya was eager to switch the topic. As he did with everyone who inquired about his eyepatch. He gave different answers each time, but nobody seemed to want to press him. Most people just assumed he was hiding a scar and he didn't mind that. +
Suits him. Has this guy ever thought about joining the Fatui? They've had several high-ranking positions open up recently. Hahah.. Just kidding. "Comfy?"
It's cold outside. He's stealing @ripcurrents.bsky.social's coat. ♡

An heirloom. An interesting explanation, though he couldn't say he found it overly convincing. He'd always associated heirlooms with sentiment, with the sort of things people held onto precisely because they couldn't be replaced. Yet Kaeya had dismissed his so readily.
It wasn't unusual for people who didn't know him well to ask. And truthfully, Kaeya didn't mind all that much. He had a well crafted lie for every occasion. " Oh, this ? " he touched his eyepatch. " It's a family heirloom. Left to me by my grandfather. Nothing special. " he laughed it off. +
Of course he was doing it on purpose. Bastard. Still, Childe allowed himself a few curious glances, gaze sliding over the bare skin of a toned thigh before returning to the Captain's face. His stupidly pretty face. "I don't think it'd suit me as much as it does you."
" I have a spare dress if you want it. Comrade. " He was purposely standing a certain way. Arms crossed in front of false, padded breasts, hip sticking out a little to extenuate the slit on the side of his dress.
Heh, got him. "Something wrong, comrade?"
Looking away, quickly. Motherf ———

Klee, whoever you are, спасибо 🙏 "Now I can't help but feel underdressed, comrade," he joked, laughter woven through his tone.
Lips curled into a small smirk. The way Childe seemed to be taken aback was awfully amusing. He even mixed up his words, how cute. " Danke. I'm not quite sure, though. This outfit was Klee's idea. "
Oh. Right. Blinking himself back into the present, quietly clearing his throat. Ahem. Get it together. "You look, uh..." Like an absolute smoke show. "Yeah. Really nice. What is this costume meant to be?" he asked, gesturing at Kaeya's outfit.
" Happy Halloween to you too. " he chuckled, evidently amused by Childe's staring.

Childe let out a quiet laugh at Kaeya's introduction of him as a friend. They had known each other for all of a few minutes. "Make that two glasses, too, please," he added on to the end of Kaeya's order, glancing to the waiter and gesturing withtwo fingers.
Naturally, Kaeya didn't trust Childe. Mondstadt had a history with the Fatui. And while having a Harbinger visit wasn't unusual, it also meant someone had to keep an eye on them. Kaeya had decided it was his job tonight. Hence the invitation to drinks. But even now, he studied the ginger's +
