[As always Childe's charm is irresistible and it's difficult to disagree with him. Neither Aether nor Elise have much choice when it comes to the eventual marriage, but perhaps seeing it as partnership will really help them deal with the situation. Especially, if they both find love eventually.
When Aether looks to the princess, she's smiling, nodding to him with that very same sparkling excitement that she's shown so many times before. Childe obviously convinced her without a slightest issue. Seeing that, Aether sighs softly to himself, before giving a nod and smiling as well.]
Let's give it a try. [Gently, he squeezes his knight's hand.] Maybe this way we'll all be able to find happiness.
[If only the days would be peaceful... but can they really be any of that, when Childe is around? Aether won't say that out loud, laughing in his mind. At the same time, he feels some sort of relief. The path ahead may not be easy, but at least there is a chance now. A chance to love and be loved.]
Then... it's decided. I'll be looking forward to tomorrow! [The princess says, hands again reaching her cheeks. Her smile is only brighter.
Suddenly, she looks away.] Ah, but... perhaps you'd like to have some time alone? [She offers shyly.] I won't be too far away, so please call me when we will be heading back...
[Without even waiting for an answer, she runs off, disappearing in the garden's many paths of flowers. Aether could've sworn he's heard her sequel lightly again.]
