Chill with us!

"Thank you...for what you said, and how you listened about my complaints...I barely even know who you are, but I am thankful."

Yomite raised his brows at her comment.

"Well, that settles it then! If we ever cross paths again, I'll be willing to listen to you vent whenever!" He said, giving her a friendly grin.

"Mhm, same here. I will also listen to your trouble if we ever cross paths again."

Couple of laughs later, both of them found themselves sitting next to each other on a wooden log in the vicinity.

Yomite discovered that Ganyu had many of the same experiences as he had in the past.

He was a book reviewer on Earth, where he had to deal with incessant stress and poor novels.

His bosses hustled their employees and were inept themselves, yet they couldn't fire Yomite since the company couldn't function without him.

The same could have been said about Ganyu. A hard worker who, if fired, would likely throw the entire "business," or the so-called Liyue Qixing committee, into disarray.

She was irreplaceable, despite the fact that she didn't appear to realize it.

(I want to know.)

(I swear, everyone in this crazy city I meet must be above 1000 years of age... I'm not even surprised anymore...)

He sighed and asked, "Do you work as a hobby?"

"Eh? Do I look like I enjoy working? I certainly do, that's true. It's my hobby." She said flatly, arms crossing across her chest.

"Ehm... I don't think that counts as a hobby though..."

"Why don't jobs count as hobbies? I thought hobbies are supposed to be things you look forward to doing, and that make you feel good when you've done them? That describes my job perfectly. So what's the issue?"

Yomite blinked at her question before asking, "Are you serious...? No..like...I get you...but don't get you at the same time...let's leave it at that... nothing but respect for that... alright, on the other hand, I would like to know why you thought I was Rex Lapis, as that seemed like a very weird question to ask someone you've just met right off the bat..."

(Then again, asking a woman to cop a feel isn't the best either...that could quickly create misunderstandings...I didn't really think about that, I kinda turned off my brain the moment I saw the horns...)

"...I'm unsure why I did that...You had a very similar presence to him... but it was your eyes that made me feel like you were him. You've the same eyes as him. I've never seen his humanoid form, although I've talked to him plenty of times when he descended, hence I didn't know what to do..." She mumbled suddenly, flustered.

"Ah, that's interesting...and what about your horns? They're real right? No hairpins this time around?"

Her cheeks paled noticeably as she ducked her head down. After that, she let out a long sigh, nodding her head "I-it...well...My horns are indeed real... I'm not sure how you noticed... usually when people ask and I say they're hairpins they immediately buy it without any other mention... I never expected you to notice them...I'm rather...insecure about them..." She continued after averting her gaze from Yomite, feeling extremely ashamed.

"Don't worry, be proud! Those horns look cute and amazing. Nothing to be ashamed of, I always love to see those kinds of things. Even one of my comrades has horns. They're like twin blessings for my eyes."

Disbelief crept onto her face at such blunt honesty and a compliment from a man she'd spoken to for the first time today.

"Your comrade has...horns...?"

The shock on Ganyu's face, however, was quickly replaced by a pink flush when she heard the last part of his sentence.

She couldn't meet his gaze, instead opting on the grass beneath her.

What was going on with her?

Why did she feel such a strong connection with the man before her; why did it make her turn red every time he uttered a single word, as if her heart was going to beat out of her chest?

Because he complimented her insecurities?

That seemed like the most logical explanation she could think of.

"Is...is that so...twin blessings...."

She fidgeted with her fingers as her cheeks grew redder, feeling even more embarrassed than before.

She'd never been complimented or treated with kindness by a complete stranger like this before....it made her feel really warm inside...

Yomite chuckled slightly, finding it cute that her reaction was quite similar to a young child getting praised.

"Don't be shy! I'm only telling you the truth. Either way, it's getting pretty late and I still have somewhere to be. Not to mention, you also have to settle the debt of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, so do that and then rest well. Try not to think too much about whether you fit into human populace or not, each and every human is different and has different hobbies, part of you is a human, so consider yourself one as well. See ya!"

With those parting words, he bid his farewell.

"Ah! Have a nice rest of the day as well!"

Ganyu politely responded before waving goodbye.

As soon as he disappeared in the distance, she slumped against a tree, closing her eyes for a brief second before slowly opening them again.

A faint blush still lingered around her face, lingering there until it began to fade away as time passed.

'What a kind and thoughtful man...' She thought, her spirits raised considerably after hearing those kind words of his.

A sense of warmth spread through her body as she felt something.

What was happening?

For the first time in her life, she had someone else understand her predicament.

It was a great feeling.

This kind stranger understood her pain.

Well, he was no longer a stranger, it would be rude to call him that. An acquaintance sounded much more appropriate.

Maybe a...friend?

And that pleasant friend had a name.

"...Yomite."

She muttered under her breath, still standing stock still.

The smile returned on her lips, thinking that hiding her identity may not prove to be as bad as she initially thought...

"Twin blessings..."

She suddenly giggled lightly to herself at the thought of how ridiculous it sounded, yet that feeling of joy wouldn't go away.

Her cheeks were once again tinted a light shade of pink, almost blending in with the grass below her.

"Twin blessings...twin blessings..."

She repeated silently, smiling wider to herself as she turned around to go and settle the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor's debt.
