[OKAY WELL basically immediately after checking the profiles and going through 278383256 different emotions, many of which were various flavors of WHAT THE FCK IS GOING ON HERE, Childe is just. Going to be a good little Harbinger and go do his job. WORK FIRST, QUESTIONS LATER.
So wherever Scaramouche is, I hope he hasn't lost his reflexes, because between one second and the next he's going to have a table leg swinging at his head, full force
HE HASN'T LOST HIS REFLEXES THANKFULLY even though it'd be really funny if he was just taken out day 2 week 0 before even Official Week Zero by a table leg of all things. Thankfully also that he is so fucking short, so dodging blows from Childe isn't as hard as it would be if he was GANGLY and TALL.
Anyway he's just laughing as he hops a step or two back and it is, unsurprisingly, a very unpleasant sound.]
Going right for it this time? How unusual for you!
[WELL THAT'S a thing that happened. Scaramouche checking his phone upon waking and immediately being like "eh", feeling way more concerned about suddenly being suplexed into unconsciousness than one of their many annoying gingers apparently dying again... Even if this was probably the annoying ginger he was most alright with. Ain't that just the way.
ANYWAY!! Upon exiting his room, there's another annoying ginger! His nose wrinkles on reflex.]
I'mma be real the only reason Childe hasn't broken into Scara's room to steal his gnosis is because even if it is in there and not on Scara's person, the second it goes missing Scara will hunt him down anyway and he's still trying to figure out what to do at that point
BUT ANYWAY what is this weird fucking text. WHY DID HE GET STUCK IN THE GYM. HOW DO YOU EVEN DIE WHEN YOU'RE ALREADY DEAD. God.]
[HELLO STINKY BONZO. Childe definitely noticed him coming and then going but like honestly who is surprised. Hopefully Scaramouche didn't think Childe would leave him alone now that he believes him (kind of) because he definitely won't and in fact goes to find him pretty much as soon as it ends.]
[THIS IS WHY HE'S GLAD CHILDE IS ALWAYS OFF ON MISSIONS AND HE'S ALWAYS OFF WANDERING AROUND DOING WEIRD SHIT, THEIR PATHS RARELY CROSS. BUT NOW..........
Wow is an eternity of this really what he's got to look forward to, that's hellish. Anyway he's vibing outside because he almost always is, far away from the dock so he doesn't have to deal with the arrival of a bunch of sad or smad or whatever people. Childe gets the stink eye for finding him anyway but what else is new.]
Anything actually important? If it was just their deaths, I'm not interested.
[well that sure did have a lot of uhhhhh cannibalism and also now he can sleep in his own room wow amazing. Childe doesn't have a real reason to come find him but he will anyway because he's annoying]
You're going to get yourself voted out eventually.
[HE'S STILL LOOKING PISSY but what else is new... He also literally waited until everyone disembarked and scattered before returning to the dock to vibe because apparently the dock is his vibing place.]
At this rate, it might be a mercy. [LOOK AT TRIAL. Anyway more importantly:] That's why I wouldn't hide a body in your room, either.
[WELL, HERE THEY ARE, IN THE (rolls dice) CASINO??? Sure yeah they're in the casino for some fucking reason, maybe they're trying to roll for Yelan. Anyway, Scaramouche doesn't have any plans on staying here for long, so he's soon dippin his way out EXCEPT THERE'S A PROBLEM...
THERE'S A CLOSED DOOR IN THE WAY. After several minutes of staring at it in blank confusion, he whips around and shouts to the nearest person (Childe):]
[THEY REALLY CAME TO ROLL FOR YELAN but alas, she's not here... Childe, too, is just getting his exploring out of the way, searching (in vain, once again) for anything useful.
He comes over when Scaramouche yells, even though he REALLY DOESN'T HAVE TO Childe please... but then he looks between the door and Scaramouche.]
[Hewwo... Once again Scaramouche is just vibing by the docks on their original island, where he likes to retreat when all of the hustle and bustle has passed on through. Though he'd stuck around for the execution today, he's very much in the same general mood that he's always in even though that was a WILD EXECUTION GIRL HELLO. WHY ARE THERE SO MANY CANNIBALS HERE.
Whenever Childe moseys by, he'll glance over.]
I'm taking it you went to talk to him yesterday, too?
[im just setting us up a pc now because we will need it later BUT!! memshare list for u
ANYWAY. He's on his way back from checking out the new island sometime later in the day, doing his best to avoid crossing paths with anyone because OF COURSE. But obviously that can't last forever; he happens to turn The Wrong Corner and nearly bumps into Childe, but before he can even say anything, a hole opens up underfoot and THERE THEY GO.]
[Laughs at your copypaste. Also I'm making you go first bc I haven't picked a memory yet
DOWN THEY GO THOUGH RIP. Childe's used to this by now, so he manages to land okay-ish, given that it's kind of hard to prepare when the ground just abruptly caves in.
HE SIGHS... but actually this one he doesn't mind so much, because there's the possibility he could see some of these Alternate Facts of Scaramouche's weird timeline.]
[THE WAY THEY REALLY JUST BRAWL AND THEN BOUNCE AND MEET UP AGAIN LATER UNDER RELATIVELY NORMAL CONDITIONS LIKE IT'S A HOBBY FOR THEM.
Maybe he's coming to check his phone that he left on his bed for the 50000th time. In any case, he recognizes that expression and he immediately stops, crossing his arms over his chest.]
[Well now that they're out of the public's gaze he's going to be even fucking worse. WHERE EVEN ARE THEY who knows, they probably just end up in the same spaces sometimes, it's fine. He's flipping through his phone once more before pocketing it again and just says:]
[HE IS IN SUCH A GOOD MOOD BECAUSE HE'S A TERRIBLE TERRIBLE ASSHOLE. HELP ME. Anyway he's just vibin, probably grabbed a coffee, living his best Hell life. Fortunately the insane laughter has died down by now.]
[He permits this because Scaramouche wouldn't do it without good reason, most likely--and fortunately he is proven correct. He nods.]
I didn't hear all the details, but I talked to Lavi a little. He said he and Four were sent to Liyue. [AMONG OTHER THINGS AND PLACES...] It sounded odd, though. As if they were sent in the middle of the Liyue mission, but Teucer was there, which didn't happen until after all of that was over.
[WHERE IS THE MOOSE. Childe is gonna come track him down at some point--he's got a bottle of sake and some cups with him, since it's the closest thing to Inazuma liquor he recognizes. Inazuma probably does have sake I'm just too lazy to double-check rn. It's fine.
ANYWAY he holds it up whenever he tracks down Scara!!]
Want a head start? [This is a half-joke since they're not the ones who have to get drunk tomorrow, but it's also a genuine offer of a drink.]
[HELLO... Scara wandered off before discussions ended but pretty much got the gist of the important things. He's currently vibin in a weird, dream-like room, listening to something on his phone - but he'll look up whenever Childe happens across the room.
Hilariously, the first thing he says is just:]
If we make it back, I don't want any of the rest of them following.
[DREAM ROOM... anyway Childe definitely came to track him down because he doesn't really want Scara nyooming off without him.]
I don't think you'll have to worry about it, really. They wouldn't have any idea where to go. [TEYVAT IS BIG... but, also, not one to pass up an opportunity--] And it's not like they'd make it into Snezhnaya undetected, even if they got that far by chance.

stares at him with narrowed eyes??? This is a Calculating Harbinger expression. WHY.]
