[hfffft]

No. I do not! But I see you've seen under Lust's robes. [which gets. SUCH. a look. he can't see their face, but they're looking.]

[toyska]

[Just

This icon face

Go on, show him a good time (the good time is stabbing him in the bermuda triangle)]

[probe]

[cheerfully:] Oh, fuckboy, you better not have touched them, or I will set you on fire.

[toyska]

Let's save that for after my Vision's working again, shall we?

[fight him



no okay]

Don't worry, I have no interest in that. [He did say Lust reminded him of his sibling, after all, and he's not that kind of depraved.] They showed me of their own volition, and nothing more than that. I was telling them about the Wind Gliders we have in Teyvat, and they mentioned they're disappointed they can't use their own to fly.

[probe]

[stop being horny for fighting,]

Good. Not that they can't do what they want, but I don't like you enough for my blessing! So. [sniff.] They don't need to fly, they get into enough trouble as is.

[toyska]

[THIS IS WHY HE'S LUST AND YOU KNOW IT.]

Mm, I did tell them it's tricky to eat and fly at the same time. [Says Childe, who apparently has experience with this??] But I'm not sure even that's a strong enough motivator to keep them on the ground.

[Maybe Childe will bring them back a Ruin Guard to ride around on. As a treat.

He looks amused, though. He's not used to being liked at all, so this is a step up!]

Is there anyone that could get your blessing, when it comes to them? [He has a feeling the answer is no.]

[probe]

Prrrobably not. But I'm overprotective.

[shrug.]

[toyska]

[Yeah, he's not surprised. But it's cute; he hums, sounding fond.]

Someone I know would likely say I should take a page out of your book.

[probe]

Someone you know, huh. Cryptic!

[toyska]

Haha, no one here. [Traveler... his literal only friend(?).] They think I spoil my youngest brother too much.

[probe]

There's no such thing as too much spoiling. Especially when it comes to siblings.

[toyska]

[There's a pause, but then Childe leans his head back, laughing. What a great answer.]

Now you're my new favorite!

[probe]

[a beat, and then they laugh.]

Really, is that all it takes?

[toyska]

[He winks, nodding towards the bottle he'd brought.]

You say that like you won't have a new favorite the moment I leave.

[He knows your type, FuckFriend.]

[probe]

[WOW.

no, he's right.]

It varies. [wink. or the suggestion of one, anyway.]

[toyska]

[He shakes his head, but he's grinning. Terrible. Playing a flirt is so exhausting I hate this]

And what does it take to hold your favor longer?

[probe]

Mm... that you'll have to find out yourself, I think. It's no fun if I just tell you the answer.

[toyska]

[He nods, acknowledging that.]

A victory unearned is no victory at all. [Which is what he wanted coming here but noooo, now he has to flirt with the void instead. SIGH. (No it's fine, he's entertained.)]

But is there anyone whose blessing I'd need to earn first? I'd hate to get set on fire without my Vision.

[Childe don't imply you're fine with getting set on fire]

[probe]

[having to flirt with the void is such a terrible fate, yea

they take another drink of whatever helldrink childe brought them.]

Oh, there are a few. [...] Envy, maybe. They might have a few things to say.

[toyska]

[A thoughtful hum.]

A lucky thing that I planned to speak with them tomorrow, then.

[probe]

Good. They'll be happy to see you.

[toyska]

Me personally, or are they like Lust?

[aka, Friendly.]

[probe]

No, definitely you personally. You're pretty. [they sound amused.]

[toyska]

[He


Looks a little embarrassed for the first time?! He wasn't actually expecting that. Ah.



He coughs lightly into his fist.]

Well, that will make things easier.

[probe]

[really? that's all it took, childe?]

Oh, my god. Are you embarrassed? [they sound delighted.]
