[Aether doesn't understand why Childe gets so much enjoyment from acting like he can get away with everything. Surely, the prince needs to do something about it but first of all, still annoyed, he declares:]
You know all too well that I'm supposed to marry a princess from another country. Everyone in the castle is aware of that and everyone knows, that I take my duties seriously. They would be fools to spreads any rumours.
[His eventual marriage is a fact and though Aether doesn't even know the name of the princess he's supposed to marry, even though he doesn't want any of this, he is loyal. His country expects him to act this way, his parents expect it - for the sake of everyone he will accept this fate.
Absent-mindedly, he squeezes Childe's hand, but says nothing more.
Soon, they arrive at the chambers and Aether quickly rushes the knight inside, before closing the door and going to grab a bowl of water and a piece of cloth for cleaning the wound and another for bandaging it.]
