So are you asking me to invite you somewhere? Or are you going to invite me somewhere?

Since there's no Abyss Order and Fauit here, I've got plenty of time.
Would now be fine? Or I can come tomorrow.

[Once Aether figures out how to get there, it doesn't take too long. The fog is an issue, but it's not so severe. Having his wings back is making traveling easier than ever, too.

So It doesn't him long at all to find Dain's place. He lands, retracting his wings until they're hidden once again. Then he goes to the door and knocks.]


Dain, it's me, Aether. [He's less formal now that they are getting better acquainted with each other.]

[Aether does as he's told, coming inside quickly. He's going to start off with a friendly greeting but is caught off guard by the statement Dainsleif makes. He's concerned about what he means. The warmer atmosphere and being inside is a comfort compared to the foggy outside.]

Did something happen? Is everything all right? [His trip didn't take long, but still, it doesn't take long for something to happen when a god is active in their world. He's barely in the house, but it's best to get right to it if it's important.]

The fog dense, but I'll be careful now. [Oh... so that isn't something normal here, then. Aether assumed it's something normal for this world this time of year, but that does make sense. Even with using anemo it isn't easy to disperse, but he doesn't have much of a reference of what is normal here anyway. He can tell Dainsleif is taking this seriously and he will too now that he knows.]

Tea would be great, thanks. [He walks into the room more, looking around. It's really a nice place to live - probably better than Albedo's place. He must spend quite a lot of time here, but that's not a bad thing.] You're fine. I'm gad you let me come and see you. You've got yourself a pretty nice place here. I'm a little jealous.

[He's just a little smug with some of his teasing. It's nice to do something like this with Dainsleif and see another side to him. He knows there's more to him than what he presents himself as, whether Dainsleif acknowledges that or not.

He's still looking around when he feels something rubbing against his leg. It's a cat! And a cute one. He's particularly fond of cats and dogs and has a few in his own teapot. He's tempted to cat again, but he knows cats have their own mind. Maybe he'll wait no so patiently and see.

At least there is tea. Aether goes to sit down in one of the chairs as he looks towards Dainsleif. He laughs just once - of course this cat that is living here is totally not his. Just an unwanted roommate. Of course.]
Oh, all right. I didn't know cat removal was such a challenge for you.

A little. You can tease me back, too, if you want. It's only fair. [He'd be rather amused if that does happen. He does light teasing to those he likes when he feels comfortable - just look at Paimon.]

I didn't think that at all. [Truly. He doesn't seen Dainsleif hurting something innocent like that.] You could've made a public post or ask someone here if they would like to have a cat. [He probably would have to ask Albedo, but he makes the offer at least.] I could even take the cat if want. [But he has a feeling that might not be necessary.] But it would be a shame since the cat seems to like you and this place.

[He takes the cup of tea, mutter a thanks, and blows on it. At Dainsleif's question, he nods.] I do, but I don't want to bring up anything you don't want to talk about either. [He respects privacy after all. He's private himself, but he's had practice with that sort of thing.] I was thinking more about things you like to do, maybe foods you like.

[At the mention of Kaeya, he's glad someone from Teyvat has been able to reach out to him - or anyone in general.]

Kaeya is a friendly guy. He was one of the first friends I made in Mondstadt. [It feels like a while ago yet just yesterday at the same time.] Friendship sometimes is about knowing those small things about people even if it's mundane. If people remember those things, it shows they care.

[He gives a nod. Where has he heard this before? A few times, actually.] But now you do. Unless you're doing something else? [That is possible. He doesn't expect Dainsleif to just tell him everything like Aether isn't going to tell him everything.] You don't have to give up having fun and relaxing entirely because of your pursuit. [Look at him. He's in it for the long haul but he's taken time to help others and make friends.]

I don't mind jogging your memory. I've gotten pretty good at cooking and even growing things. [He misses his teapot house, but the place with Albedo has a spot for gardening so that looks promising.] I don't know what the food was like in Khaenri'ah, but if you remember any of the spices or combinations, I'll see what I can do.

[Hearing that Dainsleif could not remember reminds him of what Zhongli showed him about erosion and Azhdaha. Someone who was once Rex Lapis' best friend lost his memory and now hates him. Would something like that happen to him, too? Aether feels for him. Not pity but... sadness, empathy. It must be a heavy on him. He puts his cup of tea down and looks at him.]

Then you don't need to remember. We'll make new memories together. I'm willing to try, what about you? I won't give up until you find at least one thing no matter how long it takes.

An you're right, I have been lucky, and I've been lucky that you reached out to me. [He's right. Aether can't dispute the part of them walking different paths, but one thing does stick out.] You let me reach out to you. If you really didn't want to try, you would've turned me down and told me to leave you alone, but you didn't. I think that counts.

[Aether understands reasons for wanting to keep things to oneself, he does it plenty with his own origins, but he also does not isolate himself and avoid others. He knows he is different though, his experiences vastly different. He wants to understand why Dainsleif wants feels he has to live a life of solitude. There is a chance it is required, or he believes it's the only way - it's hard to know. Sometimes the person doesn't realize it themselves.]

Maybe one day you can see me as a friend and ally. [Maybe it is a lot to ask for, but he's willing to try. He sees a glint of an opportunity with not being completely shut out. Yet he knows him wanting that alone isn't going to work. It'll probably take time and he doesn't mind waiting if the other needs it.]

Well, since I get such an honor. [He smiles, injecting a lighter air into this all. His eyes glance at the cat from earlier then back at him.] You never mentioned the cat having a name. Did you pick a name?

[It seems the question he asked has done his job as it changes the atmosphere of the conversation and catches him off-guard. If Dainsleif has a harder time recalling things about himself connected to the past, Aether will ask about the present.]

Maybe not, but it's not a boring name. [He picks up his cup of tea, his eyes looking at him.] You could've name them 'cat' or not given them a name at all. Yet you picked a name that's in your mother tongue. [It's cute that he's flustered by such a small thing. Maybe it's because it's so small he has such a reaction. He takes a sip of tea, tasting its flavor. It's quite nice.]

I also learned you can make tea well today, too. [It's not the hardest thing, but it's just a little fact about him that opens up more things.] Now you've got to learn how to bake something to go with the tea.

[Is it truly this baffling to him Aether is curious about him? That sheds light into how the other feels about himself. Aether's gotten some hints, but those small comments and thoughts remind him.]

I wouldn't say it if I didn't mean it. [He could've easily just work alongside him and be cordial enough. He's done that before so that's nothing new. His eyes widen just a little, pleasantly surprised at Dainsleif agreeing. I guess Aether finally got it across enough.

He listens attentively, smiling and looking more comfortable as he sees Dainsleif talking about himself. He hopes this is something that he can remember, and when he finds others, maybe he can befriend and share these little things when he's ready.]
Thank you. [He could gloat but that's not what's needed now.] It means a lot to me that you told me those things about yourself.
