you hide your face with your disguise // 'cause someone filled your head with lies

[It had been a few days since the hunt for the Great Mujina Youkai had come to an end, having to say goodbye to the kids and to Yoimiya too. The ship that was to take him back to Snezhnaya would be arriving a bit later in the day, and Childe sighs as he sits back in his chair in the tent he's occupying in one such hidden Fatui camp. He had a great time in Inazuma. The country was beautiful, rich with a new culture to learn and all sorts of places to explore and fight new and more exciting enemies. All his things were in order- the gifts that he'd bought to bring back to his family, Teucer's Onikabuto in a little bug box with some food to keep it alive during the trip back- all he'd have to do is wait for the ship and he'd be on his way.

He tells himself that he'd return to the country one day, once tensions between the Fatui and the Shogunate calm down. It was a miracle that he was able to stay as long as he has, evading the Tenryou Commission. He has some people to thank for that, and he won't forget what they did for him while he's been here. Some gifts would be in order for them upon his return.

The Harbinger idly plays with a writing utensil between his fingers. He'd like to bring something from Snezhnaya for Yoimiya, too.

There's a sharp rap at his door, and Childe sighs. He doesn't really want to deal with work right now, perfectly happy reminiscing on the time he's spent in Inazuma before he leaves, but answers with a bored tone to his voice:]

Come in.

[An agent enters, bowing and standing at attention.]

Sir, we've captured a Tenryou Commission spy that was found sneaking around. We've taken her into custody and are awaiting your orders on how to deal with her.

[Childe's eyebrow raises. It should have been hard to find this camp, even by the Shuumatsuban. Somehow, doubt creeps into his mind, but stands from his chair.]

Alright, I'll deal with it myself. At least I can have one last bit of fun before I depart.

[The agent only bows once more, to lead Childe towards the prisoner. He knows better than to argue with the Harbinger, but feels sorry for the spy. The two cross the camp to another tent, the agent stopping him right before lifting the flap for his senior commander.]

She claims to be from the fireworks shop, but we've seen Tenryou soldiers stop frequently at it.

[Before he can answer, the flap is lifted to reveal a certain girl that he'd met not but a few days ago...]

[ Their time together may have been limited, but within these past few days, Tartaglia has become so attune with her inner workings, so accustomed to all of her carnal desires, the only one who to ever get a glimpse of her immense sexual appetite that she wasn't even aware of herself. Every second spent without him will feel like a sharp pain stabbing her in the heart, so she's determined to make this final moment inside this cozy tub memorable, so wonderful that he'll always remember the feel of her soft skin under his fingertips, her mewls and cries for his name playing like a melody in his ears whenever he's missing her touch.

She's going to miss him dearly while he's gone but her heart is burning with determination to make their final moment of intimacy extra special. Fired up, she sinks down onto his cock, relishing every last inch of him as the lovers savor the divine connection between their bodies. She's happy to give him everything he's ever wanted, screaming his name, not caring that Celestia above might be able to hear the cries of their lovemaking while they ride the high of their last climax together. ]

[ Once they make it to Ritou Pier, it's truly starting to dawn on her that their time together has come to an end. Deep down inside, Yoimiya wishes she could join him, to ride off in that boat together and live out their happy ending in the snowcapped lands of Snezhnaya. It's a lovely dream but for the time being, such a fantasy is simply not possible for them.

It hurts to watch him leave, her heart already beginning to ache but she's firm in her resolve to send him with a bright smile. To ensure that he'll remember her radiant energy, the crazy firecracker girl that came into his life like a flash of fireworks. ]

I should be the one thanking you. These past couple of days have been the most fun I've ever had and you've made me the happiest girl in all of Teyvat. I'm going to miss you so much but... [ Goodness, she made a promise to herself to not cry but here she is getting choked up, ] Your family is going to be so happy that their beloved son is coming home.

[ There's a hint of reluctance as she slips her hand out of his grasp, she needs to stay strong in order to gift him memories enclosed in this box adorned with cherry blossoms. ]

I hope Teucer, Tonia, and Anthon enjoy the presents. If they get a chance to visit Inazuma, we should all go to a festival together while they wear those masks! Hehe, speaking of that, I also slipped a certain narwhal firework launch tube in the box as well. There should be plenty of firepower in there so you and your siblings can play with to your heart's content.

[ Inside of the box is the masks they bought for his siblings, along with the firework launch tube Tartaglia used to blow up the onsen roof. Upon further inspection, he'll find that Yoimiya also snuck in a few other items, a blue fox mask that she secretly purchased for him while they were on Amakane Island, sparklers for his siblings and a handwritten letter he can read while on the boat ride back to Snezhnaya. ]

I do have one last greedy request. Promise me you'll take care of yourself while you are out there.
