[ Trahearne's expression softens when Zhongli takes his hand, and he happily takes a step towards him, into his warmth. He watches him speak, and a smile slowly spreads across his face.
Even if Erosion might not affect him in this realm, that doesn't stop Trahearne from worrying. Nothing can stop Trahearne from worrying, really, but what makes him happiest is knowing that, even if it does somehow start to take effect, Zhongli has something to combat it with. ]
You're most welcome. I only want you to be happy, and give you what peace of mind I can.
[ Trahearne chuckles into the kiss, because he, too, is rather eager to read what Zhongli has to share. The scholar in him feels positively spoiled for dating someone like him. It's honestly the least he can do to give back.
Though it takes a moment for him to pull open his eyes again, a grin soon bursts across his face, and he tugs lightly at his hand. ]
I apologise for intruding on such short notice, but you wouldn't mind sharing a pot of tea for a little while, would you?

[ Their situation is strange, but it isn't bad.
Trahearne squeezes Zhongli's hand. ]
Merry Wintersday.

[ Any excuse to hang around longer, really. ]
Good to wrap?
Certainly. I came across a new tea blend that I think you would find agreeable. I've actually been meaning for an occasion to share it with you...
