"You know... when you said you needed help with something, I didn't think it meant spying on your sister's date," Kaeya says wearily. "Do you really not like her boyfriend?"
"I'LL NEVER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT MAN AS HER BOYFRIEND," Aether hisses furiously, whipping his head around.
"Besides we're not here to spy, we're here to sabotage." Aether seriously states. Yelping when Diluc hits him over the head.
"Let your sister date whoever she wants to date." Diluc huffs.
"Easy for you to say! I'd be fine if it was one of you guys but not this one!!"
Before Diluc could get another word in, he's immediately shushed by Aether's "SHH! HE'S COMING! EVERYONE GET DOWN!!" before getting yanked down behind the bushes.
Because ah yes, did he mention they, a group of 4 men, were 'hiding' behind some shrubs by a nearby amusement park?
These 4 men are tragically Venti, Kaeya, and Diluc with Aether as the leader who gathered them all here today.
Venti's purely here because for the fun of it all.
Kaeya dragged Diluc with him. Bastard.
But like good friends, they do quiet down to watch the scene before them.
Lumine was standing there by the booth, looking at her phone and occasionally back up to look around her. She's in a simple dress, very cute and perfect for her style.
Her face lights up when Childe approaches her, a blush adorning her cheeks as Childe presents her a gift.
"Wait, her boyfriend's a FATUI?" The term they usually spat out when someone was from the one elite school rivaling theirs and all their sister schools.
"YES!! Now if you don't mind," Aether says calmly as if he didn't pull a gun out of nowhere, aiming it right at the boy's head
"Hey now..." Kaeya's sweating because what the FUCK. WHERE DID HE GET A GUN FROM?! "Let's not be too dramatic. Hey Diluc, help me talk some sense to Aether."
"Who are you calling Diluc? I'm Darknight Hero 13."
What.
And suddenly Diluc pulls out aNOTHER gun from nowhere.
Kaeya watches helplessly as Aether AND his brother both charge in after Lumine and her date, guns literally blazing.
"Venti, come on, we've got to stop them."
"Who's Venti?"
Oh FUCKING no.
Turning around he sees Venti, shades on with anOTHER GUN. "I'm assassin Barbatos 13."
"This looks like fun ehe!~"
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN EHE?!?" Kaeya calls out when Venti charges in after the other two.
How is HE the sane one of the group?!
Kaeya silently sends a prayer for Lumine and her date, even if he also doesn't approve, they don't deserve THIS.
