I’m hoping that’s the case, comrade!

[Yeah, they’re at that level now.]

It’ll be a great test of my skills either way, and I’m sure you appreciate not getting rusty.

[He’s so excited. Like a puppy.]

[judgementor]

Of course. I trust I can rely on you to bring your best.

[Not a single doubt in his mind that he can. This young man enjoys battle to a startling extent. Like few humans he's ever seen, and even few Food Souls...]

I'm free later today, then, if you are.

[commediadellanime]

I always do!

[Beaten, ill, barely hanging on... Childe will always fight at 100%, even if he knows it would be better to hold himself back.]

All the plans I've got are pretty flexible. I'll see you later, then?

[With Zhongli gone, he's... Got a lot more free time.]

[judgementor]

[It's just as well that Red Wine would probably refuse to fight him if he wasn't physically up to the task (in his estimations), or he could accidentally kill the man given how they both throw themselves into their sparring.

Childe, he feels, would accept nothing less than his best.]

I'll see you later.

[He's... actually looking forward to it.]

[commediadellanime]

Great!

[His excitement is obvious, like a puppy who's owner has just come home from work and they've been dying all day to see them again.

And, unsurprisingly, Childe is at their agreed upon location early. He feels like Red Wine is the sort of man who appreciates being punctual, and he's not really looking to make a certain sort of impression on the man. He's here for a fight. A good one, where he can learn from someone who's been fighting for much longer than he has.]

[judgementor]

[Red Wine isn't there quite as early as Childe but he's still early regardless, having expected the young man to be ready and waiting for him with how eager he is about all of this.

He approaches with an easy half-smile, one hand already resting on the hilt of his sword.]

I trust you're going to give me your best, today?
