[ Venti has always been the type who wanders to the beat of his own drum, dipping in and out of people's lives as easily as the blowing wind. But Tokyo-F . . . changed things, somewhat.

Though his initial instinct had been to sleep under a tree and call it "home," an invitation to live with old friends put a halt to those plans. For starters, it would be protection from the unpredictable weather in the segments. For another, maybe he did get used to having a bed and a room to call "home," in no small part because of the teammates and friends who inhabited it with him. Now that solitary tree feels . . . lonely, in a way it didn't before.

And so here he is, standing at the threshold of a house full of people he loves and trusts, who asked him to stay . . . it makes him feel his age, but not in a bad way, for once. Nor does he feel that nagging urge to disappear into the wind.

Should he catch anyone watching him, the pensive expression dissolves into a smile. ]


Hehe, is this the part where we fight over bedrooms?

[ A blink, then a pause, then a faint frown. ]

You okay?
at_heart: (support :: no one said it'd be easy)

[ He's gonna chat up Zhongli at the opening ceremony in a couple weeks, realize it's not the Zhongli he knows, and immediately slot that part of the puzzle into place, you know. Add in your post looking for more genshins, and...

Anyway, the boop doesn't deter him. It does very clearly communicate that you don't want to talk about it right now, though, so he leans back and says: ]


We'd be working just as hard anyway, and we wouldn't get the pleasure of your company.

[ With a beat of very serious eye contact. So that he can be sure you hear the bit about it being a privilege to have you around. ]
at_heart: (smirk :: sounds like a plan)

[ rude!! ] [ And also you are only prolonging the deliberate eye contact. ]

I think you'd bother us none of the time. On account of not being a bother.

[ Then he turns away, breezy. ]

What do you want for lunch, anyway? We should figure out some kind of a schedule.
at_heart: (wry :: well sometimes)

[ That's okay, there'll be more eye contact later. ]

Man, we're gonna have to pay for groceries here. Both — weird and very normal.
