Hmm... if that's so, perhaps we should figure out why it is people are drawn to this place, and what the reason is for bringing us here. But of course, that won't be very easy, will it..?
[That's the downfall of their time here. So many mysteries, and yet no clue as to what they all mean. And if their arrival here is all random, how would such a phenomenon even come into being in the first place..?]
[But in any case, Xingqiu seems eager to move on from these topics, and he decides to nod along with Xingqiu as his arm is tugged.]
Alright, let's get going then.
[He's happy to let Xingqiu tug him along, and a small smile forms on his face. Just enjoying the way Xingqiu hangs on his arm as they walk. Though, after a brief pause, he has to ask.]
You're acting more eager than usual today. Is there some reason why?
It's something I've considered but I wouldn't really know where to start. Well, actually, it would probably be a good idea to get a sense of the type of people that have found themselves here along with the length of time they have resided in the city.
[ That would mean exchanging information with others. It's not a difficult task to perform, as long as communication isn't an issue and the only thing that could really bar that is difficult people... And there is also the issue of it just being overly tedious. It really is something to discuss another time, another day. Right now he wants to focus on Chongyun and his birthday. They would have plenty of time to investigate the city's mysteries; as far as he knows they aren't going anywhere... ] Perhaps we can go over logistics another time.
[ There is a short laugh that gets past his lips when he hears Chongyun's question, growing ever more amused that his friend has yet to put the pieces together. Although he wouldn't describe himself as more eager than usual, he is always happy to spend time with his friend. ] Well, I thought you might figure it out by now. Hm. I could tell you but I rather it remain a surprise.
Or we can bet on it. Let's see. [ He fishes out his phone before looking for the timer. ] I'll give you an hour's time. If by then you don't know what it is, then I'll tell you but that also means I win.
[Chongyun is fine with going over the logistics another day. Tedious though it may be, it could prove beneficial, and Xingqiu was fairly good at organizing these kinds of things.]
[While Xingqiu laughs at his question, Chongyun just looks on puzzled. His brow furrows as he tilts his head a bit.]
A surprise..? Xingqiu, this isn't another one of your pranks, is it..?
[Still, had he forgotten something? Chongyun hums in thought.]
Hmm, alright. I'll do my best to guess. Is it... because you found a new place to explore?
