[LUST. PLEASE. He blinks, looking a little surprised.]
Wrath didn't tell you about it? [Because Gu Yun was on the adventure with him and gave Wrath their hat back, and if Wrath and Lust are close, he would've assumed they'd talk about it. But no matter.] Yes, it was fine. It was actually a person, or something like that, I think? I don't really know... anyway, we were trying to return its power to it, so we could get out of the illusion. We were being attacked at the time, though, so it was the best I could do under the circumstances. There was no time to run it to him safely.
[He doesn't yeet baby goats for fun, Lust, he is not that kind of maniac.]

[Okay, well, he kind of already figured, but thanks for the confirmation on that first part, and as for the second--
Childe stares at Wrath and just takes a very long, pointed drink of his alcohol with a "No Comment" vibe.
He's gonna get bee ears again. Beears.]

Well...Wrath went to see you guys pretty much right away, and then Luca died. [so lust hasn't really been that interested in talking to many people.]
The goat was a person? Like a shapeshifter? And you lost your hand because you threw it at Gu Yun? [? ? ? what the fuck actually.]
I guess if that's really what you had to do I can't blame you...what else happened in there?

Hm, no, he's waaaay more charming than you. You're a snot. He's boyish.
[WRATH
their tone suggests that they are maybe not being 100% serious, though.]
Also! Not once has Gu Yun accused any of the Avatars of secret murder broadcasts and then refused to apologize for it until he was emotionally bullied into it!

You're more biased than my sister.
[Poor sweet Tonia. But he just sounds exasperated, and kind of amused. God. Watching Misa gasp over Wrath and Despair while Wrath sat around playing with Gu Yun's hair for an hour aged him 20 years. WHY IS HE THE KEEPER OF THE LORE HE DOESN'T WANT THIS JOB.]
Anyway, I didn't refuse to apologize. I just thought it would be better to give them space for a little while. [Even if he's like. Still mostly just sorry for upsetting them, since it was a perfectly valid theory. Also, Gu Yun didn't exactly argue with him?? In fact--] You're the one who told him that those executions are a form of indulgence. Forgive me for not immediately trusting a group of hooded strangers who hear and see our every move.
[That's essentially his entire career, sans the hood these days, and he sure as hell ain't trustworthy.]

[Correction, Wrath went to see Gu Yun right away--but Childe doesn't specify, because, yeah. Luca. Childe refuses to get attached to anyone here, because he's not an idiot, but he liked Luca well enough. His Russian-speaking buddy...]
Something like that, I think. It told us it needed its power back to get us out of there. And Primrose--well, something that looked like Primrose--attacked the Marquis, so it was up to me to get to it first. And then "she" came after me once I returned its power.
[For how shitheaded they are to each other, they actually work together incredibly well as a team. Terrible. And for all of Childe's power lust, he can see the bigger picture.
But speaking of, he reaches for the book with his other hand.]
We found a few things, while we were there. Is this Envy's?

[Naaaah. He had fun. Let him go back and fight fake Primrose more.]
I was told as much, but I wanted to confirm it with you first. [It's just habit, by now, to cross-check as much information as he can. But he nods; he'll return it, then.] Vlad had the blanket, so I'm not sure what's happened to it, but I believe the Marquis still has the figurine. Are either of those yours?

We're all really different, you're right, but...some of us just know how to talk to each other better than the others. Wrath knows how to talk to Despair, Despair deals with Gluttony, and I can talk to Pride. Wrath knows how to control Greed, too, and Envy listens to me and Wrath a lot. And Sloth's just easy to get along with period.
[Welcome, welcome! The room is tidy, save for the ever-present broken chair. His bedside table now has both his marriage chopsticks and his broken Mr. Cyclops doll from the CYOA, but otherwise, it's a pretty orderly place.
Childe's sitting on the sofa, and on the table in front of him is the book from that same adventure! He picks it up as Envy comes up the stairs, waving it a little. Please. Take the monster porn or whatever it is.]
So I'm told, yes.
