[ lumine remains unmoving for several more minutes, her expression shifting several times from confusion to incredulity to annoyance with every passing second, cupping her chin on a propped-up hand. honestly, there's no reason for her to replay the dream again and again in her head, especially the more sordid parts of it, but there were a few things about it that didn't make sense.
aether—why was aether mentioned there? why did they both imply that he's missing? and why did it feel like her twin brother was not at all missing, but simply elsewhere? did something happen to him?
the bedroom she was in, she's pretty sure it's in liyue harbour. the sight from the window was unmistakable, and so were the noises emanating from outside, only drowned out by the sounds that they were making. which makes her wonder if the answers to these questions are in the harbour. not that she knows what to look for anyway; is she supposed to ask the bedroom of one (1) harbinger named childe?
lumine closes her eyes and tries to calm the turmoil of feelings inside of her down, reaching out for her cup of tea—only to realise that it's gone cold. has she been so distracted all this time that she didn't even notice her tea?
she lifts a hand to flag the waitstaff coming her way, freezing almost immediately when she notices something in her peripheral view. ]
