[ you may have it back ]

This is a little big for me, I think, but thanks for letting me try it out.

[bindings]

Of course. [...] Perhaps we find you something that is more your size.

[she makes mizuki a stop sign small edition]

[adorabrawler]

Oh, you don't have to worry about that. It's what I got my trusty pipe for!

[bindings]

[she doesn't quite smile, but she likes the enthusiasm.]

Hm. That is also acceptable.

[adorabrawler]

I've had it for a while, so I got a pretty good handle on it.

[bindings]

How long have you trained with it? Do you also have a master?

[adorabrawler]

When did I find it again... Five—six months ago? I just found it in an alley one day and decided to pick it up, so I didn't exactly learn with it.

[bindings]

Then it is all the more impressive that you managed to stop me from breaking your collarbone with it.

[adorabrawler]

Uhhh—yeeeah, ha ha...

[ she was trying to BREAK MY COLLARBONE? ]

What can I say, I was taught well....

[bindings]

[yeah, you know, as you do]

You were. [...] What is your world like?

[adorabrawler]

[ A beat follows, as she takes a moment to look up and around. ]

It's kind of similar to this place, actually...

[bindings]

What is the name? [...] Is it Oregon?

[not every city is oregon shenhe]

[adorabrawler]

[ i— ]

Oregon? No, I think... Isn't that in America? I live all the way in Japan.

[bindings]

... Japan. [she says this like she's never said the word before, which she hasn't]

Is... that the West Coast? [PLEASE]

[adorabrawler]

[ ... ]

I guess you don't know much about the geography of Earth, huh.

[bindings]

I have never been there. So no.

[adorabrawler]

[ wild. ]

Well, alright—it's not. Japan is a different country across the ocean from America, where I, uh, think Oregon is.

[bindings]

I see. And you said Japan is like this?

[adorabrawler]

Tokyo is, anyway—that's where I live. Not every city is like this.

[bindings]

Liyue Harbor is also a city, and it is nothing like this. [agreed.] I wonder why it is fashioned after a city like Tokyo rather than anything else.

[adorabrawler]

Well, Tokyo does look pretty cool.

[bindings]

To you it does. [this is a little bit teasing, maybe]

[adorabrawler]

You don't like the look of this place?

[bindings]

There aren't enough trees.

[adorabrawler]

Oh. Yeah. Big cities aren't the best place to go if you wanted nature.
