[ not sad... kazuki can relate, though, in a way. maybe he's not a god, but having no one listen... he understands that, at least. maybe there is the faintest twinge of jealousy as nahida says it's gotten better, but all the same, he is glad for that. ]
As long as they remember to keep listening and don't shut you out again.
[ anyway. pushing all that aside, he'll follow her up the hill. ]
Are you always reckless enough to go charging into clearly dangerous places just to see what it is?
[she smiles at that first part. that's how she hopes it will go.
as for the house on the hill...]
Normally I would have other ways of finding information about it before going in, but... I don't have those resources here. So, I'm just working with what I have.
[there's a beat.]
Between the two of us, this might be the safest way to explore it. You can get us in and out quickly, and if there is something dangerous, I can put up a barrier or heal us.
[ he's probably pronouncing that wrong but it's fine. nahida has a point, so he just laughs a little and nods along. ]
Can't argue with that. They can talk big about the elemental psychs all day long, but Drift and Healing Aura are tailor-made for exploring stuff like this.
Mhm. If I was still able to access Irminsul from here, I could look up records about that house's history and what sorts of people used to live there, or if anything of significance happened there... it's a little frustrating not being able to do that.
[it still takes time to find information - irminsul being a vast repository of all of teyvat's memories, and all - but it was a resources she was accustomed to using. now that she's cut off from it, it... feels really strange.]
Hehe, right? [well, here they are. the door is locked... hmm. some of the windows are alreaedy broken, though.] ...oh, this is a little weird. It looks like we're not the first ones to try and check this place out.
...hehe. Well, let's be as careful about this as we can.
[she will very carefully move some of the broken glass out of the way to increase the chances of climbing in through a window without hurting themselves.]
[ he watches her in silence for a second, then just shakes his head. ]
I've got it.
[ putting a hand on her shoulder, he activates his psych. the sound of a guitar swells through the air as a musical staff circles them both, notes shimmering off the lines to fill their vision.
a moment later, the music begins to fade, the staff disappears, and they'll find themselves inside. ]
[they've climbed into a living room window; nahida indicates the kitchen. everything here seems to be falling apart... it's kind of creepy, if she's being honest, but she looks around with some muted interest.]
It doesn't look like any of this has been used in a while...
Maybe, but I heard none of those houses are locked. It's like there's something they don't want us to find in here.
[ lol. he picks at some utensils doubtfully. ]
...And the stuff here seems a lot older than the rest of the neighborhood should have, too. Looks like some of it could crumble into dust at any second.

[ she has his sympathy. ]
It's not that surprising. Half the people here don't have any sense of self-preservation. Naturally they'd dive right without even thinking about it.

...I'm a little jealous. That's really neat.

...But it has its perks.

[she smiles.]
...but as long as we're cooperating, we can work together to help everyone. That's the important thing.

So - this is your adventure. Pick a direction, Nahida.

[ he's like. vaguely curious at best, but mostly just creeped out. ]
I wonder why it was locked, if no one's even been here.

[all the other houses in the neighborhood are in decent condition so why is this one so creepy]

[huh. curioser and curioser.
although, she'll start to feel a little uneasy as they look around, and she glances over her shoulder, her brow furrowing. no one's there, but...]
