✨ you only get one chance...

[liltuna]

THE FIRST IMPRESSION MEME   You only get once chance to put your best foot forward. Screw that up, and you'll be forever seared in someone's mind as the person who had spinach in their teeth, or worse! ✨HOW TO PLAY 1. Drop a top-level! 2. If you have previous CR with someone, you'll have to let them know what your first-impression of them was. If this is your first time meeting, you'll be compelled to share what kind of vibe they give off. It's okay to be honest! Are they gross? Do they seem approachable? Do you find them incredibly hot?  3. Find out if your first impression was correct! Maybe that strange loner actually has a heart of gold? You'll never know unless you talk to them!

Ah, oh well. [ He shrugs with a sly little smile. ] As long as I've got your appreciation, I'll manage to persevere!

[ There's an audible sigh of relief that she didn't get too worked up. Even now, he thinks he'll have to be extra nice for a few days to alleviate how bad he feels for making her worry even a little. ]

I wouldn't lie to you, Nilou. I mean it. [ Heizou puts a hand to his heart to show his sincerity. ] If I do ever need anything, you'll be the first person I come to. So promise me you won't go secretly fussing about it, okay?

[ She brightens at that, and quickly hugs him tightly. ]

I promise, as long as you keep your word too, Heizou. [ She lets go and lets out a relieved sigh. ]

I don't know why I worry so much, you can definitely take care of yourself after all!

[unquestionable]

[ The unexpected hug has his eyebrows shooting upward, but his good reflexes come in handy when he embraces her in return fast as he does. ] Oof! I will, I will. Would it make you feel better if we pinky promised too?

[ Heizou holds his little finger out to her once she steps back. ] That's an easy case to put to bed. It's because you're the nicest girl in Teyvat!

[lotusdancer]

[ She eyes him for a second, and puts her hands on her hips with a HUFF. ]

Pinky promise!? I'm not a child, Heizou! [ Footstomp! ... ... Always teasing her and the huffiness she gives him probably doesn't help. But she'd be lying if she said it wasn't tempting. .. ... .. ]

...But yes, we can pinky promise. [ ._. Pinky Promises are special okay?! Don't judge! ]

[unquestionable]

[ And for that, she gets a little boop on the nose. ]

But you're younger than me, right? So you're a kid! [ It doesn't help one bit! He thinks it's very cute. ]

Ah, just like I thought~ C'mere then! [ Heizou pivots his wrist slowly back and forth in encouragement for her to hold out her own finger. ]

[lotusdancer]

[ Ack! Now she is the one who is booped! And.. yeah okay since she's likely about 18..ish...maybe 17..? 19 or 20? (come on Mihoyo stop bein freaking vague, give us the sauce) he is a few years older than her. ]

Hmph. I don't call YOU old.. [ Cough. But she doesn't sulk for long, because she still adores Heizou even when he menaces her with that evil teasing! At the coaxing, she giggles and steps closer to pinky promise. ]

[unquestionable]

[ Being the one that's booped is simply her job. He cannot control this. (Just like he can't control that nobody knows his actual age either!) ]

Of course you don't. Because you're nice! [ The word gets drawn out in a way that makes it seem like he's intentionally talking to her how you would a small kid. The sly little look on his face gladly gives way to a genuine grin, though, once their fingers are twisted together. Heizou shakes their hands to seal the deal. ]

[lotusdancer]

[ OOOOO he's being such the bratty brother right now she could PINCH HIS CHEEKS! She.. can't even really be angry though the way he draws out that word and grins, she, in her 'indignation' sputters into laughter even as they seal their promise with the most serious of all seals! ]

Oh! What am I going to do with you?
