June/July - Catch all (OTA)
WHO: Zhongli and you!!
WHAT: Questing and general things
WHEN: Throughout June/July
WHERE: Various
WARNINGS: Nothing atm will change if necessary
I. Arrival 🔶
[ Zhongli's arrival in Ellipsa is mundane and ordinary at best. However, He finds Nightwake fascinating, so his wanderings lead him throughout the city. His ponderous nature might lead him into getting lost easily as he isn't exactly paying attention to where he's going?? But, you know, all he has is time now so taking a leisurely stroll is just an ordinary occurrence for him. Getting lost in a big city with flashing lights and strange vehicles is very intriguing to him. But as the sun slowly lowers behind the horizon Zhongli will ask whoever he can find one simple question. ]
It would appear that I am somewhat lost. [ Zhongli??? ] Do you happen to have any idea how to get to these apartments we've been assigned? It seems I may have taken a wrong turn somewhere.
[ ZHONGLI?? ]
II. Blossomcrown 🌸
[ Being one with the spring element Zhongli found it most prudent to see this guild for himself. Though he might not join it quite yet (he is tired and retired) but seeing what it's about would probably be for the best. Though navigating his way through the city is actually a disaster?? What are cars...what are trams?! He is just stuck looking at the tram system's map with a bit of a lost expression though he does remain ever impassive as he folds his arms across his chest. ]
Perhaps another stroll would be for the best...
III. Not All That Glitters is Gold ✨
[ No need to elaborate with this quest. Zhongl is all about the shiny and interesting stones and it's from an entirely new world?! Sign him the fuck up. Sorry for whoever gets paired up with him. He is an actual idiot and will definitely talk your ear off about whatever gems he does find. And lo and behold he totally found a necklace or something with a rather pretty emerald nestled in it. ]
Hm. This gem is cut in quite an unusual way. However, the edges have been worn down in a precise manner to indicate that true craftsmanship was taken when crafting this particular piece. The merchant was well-versed in their wares indeed. It's a wonder that anyone would find such a thing to be considered 'junk', clearly they were not familiar with nor studied in the arts of gem cutting. To relieve oneself of such a fine piece of jewelry...that is the true tragedy of this quest. Why just tilting it a certain way in the sun's rays almost makes it seem to glow, does it not? A truly magnificent piece...
[ It would be more so if Zhongli's ankles weren't being gnawed on by Gem biters?? But he doesn't even seem to notice...help??? ]
IV. Flowers for the Sun ☀️
[ Zhongli probably sticks out like a sore thumb given his attire and general stoic disposition. He does smile when/if approached though and he seems to have the spirit to give it a shot. ]
I am not particularly well-versed in such things. But if I were to have an astute and proficient teacher I would be more than glad to help assist in making flower crowns with you. [ Nailed it. ]
But first, we must acquire them, correct? No need to fret. I will keep us safe should the time call for it. Let us enjoy ourselves in the meantime and perhaps we might get to know one another along the way. You may call me Zhongli, it's a pleasure.
V. Maybe It Bugs Me 🦗
[ When it comes to fighting Zhongli is an good as it gets. After all who has over 6000 years of experience and the title of the warrior god here? Zhongli doesn't seem like much and he doesn't even look worried despite his outward appearance but his spear is at the ready as he enters the Mapleline forest. ]
Look sharp. I sense that the further we descend into this forest the more unwelcomed we will be.
VI. Experimente(a)nting NSFW: closed to 21+ please! 🍵
[ Given his status as an archon the effects of these teas are not something he's too terribly worried about? But boy did he miscalculate!! But tea is one of his passions and trying new and innovative ones is something this old blockhead is more than open to. The contract that needs to be signed is an added bonus considering he is the god of contracts, he is pleased to say the least. But Zhongli will silently sip on his prepared tea, eyes closed for the moment as he savors the taste. ] Hm. Subtle but has a lingering flavor on the tongue. Not too earthy with hints of vanilla and...cinnamon. Indeed this is a fine cup of tea, more so when shared with others.
[ Those golden eyes of his will open and pointedly stare (almost like they're peering into your soul??) directly at whoever has decided to join him. ] And what do you make of it, stranger? Does sharing a cup of this fine tea with another enhance its flavor?

Considering who I am working with, patience is something that is most desperately needed. Downing one's entire glass so casually...you didn't even get to experience the full flavor of it. [ He's gonna destroy you, Barbatos. ]
Shall I pour you some more?
no subject
Such a gentleman. Please.
[ Sliding the cup over ]
Surely I just need to taste more of it.
no subject
That is the whole point of this venue, is it not? To taste test these teas we've been so kindly provided. [ Says Zhongli as at this specific point in time that tea starts to suddenly kick in. His face is a bit hot, hotter than he's ever felt before, and there's an interesting sensation going on in his groin, but he hasn't quite focused on that part yet.
He's far more focused on Venti...more specifically his lips which he is kind of attracted to at this moment. Hm. ] Just a taste then.
[ Is what Zhongli says but he like, just grabs Venti by his collar only to kiss him across the table?? Zhongli?? ]
1/2
For a moment he's so thrown off by this development that he's limp and pliable, easy to drag across the table. ]
no subject
FUCK IT
Venti shoves all of the teaware off the table in one sweeping motion, then half-climbs atop it, kneeling so he can tower over Zhongli at least a little bit. Kissing back like Zhongli left him outside for almost the entirety of lantern rite, after he traveled all that way. Like Zhongli left him on read and then disappeared, possibly never to be seen again. Like Zhongli just reappeared and acts all casual about it.
Kissing him like he has grave offenses to atone for. ]
no subject
Have you missed me that much, old friend? [ Of course Zhongli hardly knows of the situation at all, but the way Venti acts is telling enough. ] Shall we speak more of it in private?
[ He'll murmur as he leans back in his seat, arms crossing for but a moment, as he gives Venti this look that suggests they should hurry to one of the rooms provided by the venue. ]
no subject
Has he missed him that much? Yes.
But Zhongli doesn't know even the half of it. ]
Yes. [ Voice low. ] I think we have some things to discuss that are best for our ears only.
[ ""Discuss""
He's going to throw Zhongli into a wall and there won't be much talking ]
no subject
Zhongli will rise from his chair, golden eyes never leaving Venti's as he does so, before one of the attendants comes by to murmur into Zhongli's ear. They motion for them to go down the hall and into one of the rooms provided. ]
Then let us discuss this elsewhere. [ After all matters between gods should be for their ears only. ]
