[What's up girl we've decided that trials are bad actually and do not want to participate in them until further notice.
Which is to say, wherever she's hanging today, he'll just make his way over to stand quietly with her. His vibe is about as melancholic as ever, which truly has nothing to do with the events of the day. He's just like that. He also won't force her to chat just yet since today was A LOT FOR HIM so he imagines it was a lot for her too.......
[yeah she had an awful time! but she's like him - she figures they both had a hard time with the amount of people around and the amount of chaos, so she's fine with just standing here quietly, breathing in and out. those homicidal tendencies are crawling all up and down her spine.
but his company doesn't hurt. it makes it a little easier to ease up, even.
Matsui is, at least, a... "soothing" presence in that he isn't high energy. Maybe soothing isn't quite right; he's more like a fuckin depressing addition to any room, but in some cases that's what's needed! There's no simmering rage or violence that needs quelling on his end, at least. Maybe that can rub off on her.
At the question, his head dips slightly.]
He is, yes. ...Thank you for asking after him. [THAT'S HIS BUZEN!!!! Anyone who shows care for him immediately gains +200 points in his books.] Would you like to take a walk with me?
she sighs out short and heavy when he gives her an answer, and nods. good. she's glad. she can take that, and the silence out here, and the way that matsui isn't also vibrating out of the physical plane, and try to relax.]
I'd like that. [walkies... dragging your cat behind you on a leash energy]
[me like ah god yeah it's east? it's east right? it's too late for directions]
I mostly experienced the mountains of Liyue. I grew up there. [she thinks about it, trying to remember what she's told people. she settles on something she'd explained before, because it's the description that evokes the most emotion that she can feel.]
In the mountains, you can see the sun rise up close. The world is dark, and then there is color. It creeps up on the grass, pink and red and gold. You can see those colors reflected in the dew on the grass. The wind is cold, and the trees rustle with it. A little like shivering.
But then it gets warmer, slowly, as the sun raises. Birds sing - sometimes they're a little too loud. But it doesn't stop the sight from being beautiful.
... The fireworks of Liyue are almost better than the sunrise, though.
[HELP :handshake: me not knowing any directions on any amount of sleep
This is such a poetic description, though... Honestly Shenhe can be so succinct that he's almost a little surprised by it, and he listens carefully. If they weren't walking, he'd close his eyes to try envisioning it even better.]
...It sounds like a wonderful sight... The kind that feels like life.
[When colors and sounds and touch combine and really anchor a person into their body, into the physical world they inhabit.]
[He tries to think back on whether or not he's seen any fireworks in person. not me typing firtworks]
Mm... I don't believe I've ever seen any. [SAD. Though he doesn't feel like he's missed out on anything particularly crucial, the way that Shenhe describes them does make him want to see.]

He nods, though, and then sets off! In whatever direction goes away from McDonald's. Being in a McDs for 9 hours is a terrible experience.]
It would have been nice if the stars here shone a little more clearly...

she folds her arms across her chest as they walk.]
I do miss them. [a sigh.] They were so much brighter in Liyue.

That's the name of your country, correct? To the-- East of Sumeru, was it...?
[Or was it the West? Damn, his geography is shit. Well, a globe is a ball so everything is east of everything else if you go far enough, it's fine.]
Will you tell me a little bit about it?

Do you enjoy fireworks, then?
no subject
I do. [she says, tucking her hair behind her ear.] I like them for the same reason I like the sunrise. The colors are so vibrant.
I'm not very good at it myself, but I do like things that tell a story.
no subject
Mm... I don't believe I've ever seen any. [SAD. Though he doesn't feel like he's missed out on anything particularly crucial, the way that Shenhe describes them does make him want to see.]
What sort of stories do you think they tell?
no subject
... Happier ones. [she says finally.]
no subject
...Mm. [He can get it! Especially sunrises. Wow. Same sad miserable little shared hat, here.] I can understand why you would enjoy them.
