Yomite knew that Fischl's real name wasn't actually Fischl, rather just a Chuuni roleplay name as was revealed in her status sheet before. However, he had grown fond of that name, and while, the name, Amy was cute in itself, he still planned to call her Fischl in front of other people.

At least that was the wish she had asked for, the promise they decided to keep in that blissful moment sealed by the divine kiss.

And he had no reason to refuse her, of course.

Even with the name change, his feelings towards her would never change.

Their first date was incredibly fulfilling, and frankly, quite fun as well, and it also made him realize just how much she cared about him.

He talked about their romantic date with Hu Tao, leaving no details excluding the promise a secret, and she told him that she would want to go on the so-called date as well. They scheduled it to be held tomorrow.

But today, Yomite had some fluffy business to attend to...

It was late afternoon.

He was currently standing in front of a large, old stone building, which looked like it could withstand even a battering from catapults without much difficulty.

Truly a reinforced building, despite being just a bar full of drunkards of different ages and professions.

Hanging over its sturdy and old wooden door was a newly painted sign declaring that the building's name was Cat's Tail.

A cute name if he said so himself.

(I hope there will be some cute kitties around.)

He thought to himself in excitement, as he entered the establishment. Kaeya had wished to meet him today, and so he came. He wondered if he wanted to meet him for another advice in his romantic relationship with Vile.

And just like he prayed for, the spacious bar inside the Cat's Tail was packed with all manners of cute and adorable cats, lazing around and sometimes playing with the drunken customers.

They were incredibly cute and fluffy...

However, the biggest surprise was to see...an actual cat girl!

The moment he entered, the short heighted young girl in question, the one with cat ears and a long fluffy tail, took notice of him and approached him with a slight frown marring her extremely adorable and cute face.

"Welcome...What would you like?"

Her tone seemed a bit angry, as if forced to repress her grief and indignation, yet she was trying to act polite and professional.

(Dog ears and cat ears...are both simply wonderful...wonderful and cute…! To think I would meet a real cat girl...I want to pet her so much...)

Animal ears were true justice unlike anything else!

Nothing could compare!!

Dog girls had this indescribable charm about them unique to their own plus the aura of nobility they exuded from how loyal they were to its master was second to none.

Meanwhile, Cat girls had an aura of elegance that no other beastkin possessed and ambivalence akin to a tsundere beautiful girl.

"I came to play with the cats." Yomite replied while picking up a black cat, cradling it in his arms, that nuzzled against his leg. "Oh, how cute you are! Oh, and also to try out the quality drinks!"

"Tch." The cat girl clicked her tongue in extreme annoyance, her frown deepening further.

"Another lazy bum came for the cats..." She mumbled under her breath, lowering her tone, but Yomite could still clearly hear her, thanks to his slightly enhanced hearing.

(Ehm...well...this is slightly awkward...)

He placed the cat lazing happily in his hands on the ground and let it be free.

"Take your seat!" The cat girl rudely pointed at an unoccupied table and left in a hurry.

He did as he was told and checked a catalogue that was placed on top of the table. It looked to be an ordinary one— just a list of names consisting of the available drinks— he could see from where he sat it had no special features or even any unique design on it, which was befitting of the quality of a tavern.

Restaurants were bound to have nicer, and aesthetically colored menus decorated to catch the eyes of the customers, but he could care less about stuff like that.

As he leaned in to take a look at the drinks they offered...

...

..

.

He blinked extremely rapidly and hurriedly wiped his eyes with his hands and tried to look again, as if not believing what was written in it.

"…"

(Kitty Kitty Creampie...That sounds...way too wrong...Also what the hell is a Furry Special Cock Tail…!??)

The names of the said drinks sent cold shivers down his spine. He knew that they probably didn't mean what was said...but it was still uncomfortable for him to imagine how the drinks might actually look…

And smell like…

And tastes like…

Dear Goddess, he was almost retching, picturing himself drinking said drinks…

Absolutely horrible...

He put down the catalogue and saw that Kaeya was slowly approaching him from a distance.

"Yo, Love Master, long time no see!" The tall and intelligent Cavalry Captain of the Knights of Favonius greeted his self-proclaimed little brother with a wide smirk adorned on his face.

"...We literally saw each other two days ago...is that really so long?

"Time is fleeting. We better make use of every second."

"It's not about how much time you have, it's about how you use it."

Hearing him, Kaeya glanced at him with amusement flickering in his one diamond-shaped eye that was revealed.

"Anyway...just sit down already, you're starting to sound weird..." Yomite snorted through his nose and gave him a sour look, motioning for him to sit on the opposite chair.

Kaeya simply laughed it off with a wave of his hand and sat down, accepting his inviting gesture.

"So, what are we doing here?" Yomite questioned as he looked at his surroundings. It wasn't that he didn't enjoy being in a place full of cute cats. A place that even had a catgirl bartender! But the whole thing just seemed weird to him. Why not meet in Diluc's tavern? Why here?

"Well, obviously! I invited you to celebrate your recovery! My dear little brother."

"...Surely not just that...right?"

Kaeya didn't reply immediately, picking up the menu instead and his eyes scanned through the list of drinks.

"Hmm...it's so hard to decide, but I think I will have the Kitty Kitty Cream—"

"Don't say it." Yomite warned, his voice sounded so defeated, so broken, and he was barely holding himself together...

"Eh? Are you perchance saying that the Furry Cock Tail is better? I never had it before, but if you say so, I might try it!"

"Neither is!" He replied weakly, eyes still trained on the ceiling, fingers clenching, as if he was looking for an answer to this stupidity.

He refused to believe that the term creampie and furry wasn't a common term of this world...There was simply no way...

"Oh by the way, I saw you with that Investigator, Fischl, yesterday. It looked like you two had quite fun." It was spoken in a mocking tone but Yomite was already aware of how the other people viewed Fischl. Simply as a weirdo with an incoherent vocabulary and disturbing sense of fashion.

The eyes of the public were harsh, and the people themselves were even worse. Although he could care less about gossiping and even less about what they thought about his dear lover.

She loved him and he accepted and understood her, that was all he cared for...

"I enjoyed it, yes. We had fun." Yomite's lips curved upwards ever so slightly, his gaze shifting from Kaeya to the ground as he spoke. He truly enjoyed their time alone together.

"Is that so? Could it be....that you are also one of those people that believe that Fischl having one eye covered is very fitting given her title of Prinzessin der Verurteilung, so you wanted to spend some time with her to know the full truth?" Kaeya looked at him and roared in laughter, "If that's the case, that must make me a future royal progeny too, no? A charming prince, nonetheless..." Saying that, he pointed at his right eye covered with an eye patch.

"Weren't you supposed to be the so-called Pirate? Where did the royalty come from…your lying ass?" He watched, amused, as Kaeya stared blankly back at him.

He then shrugged his shoulders with a small laugh, "Maybe. Maybe there are other things my amazing self is proficient in, who knows."

"Yeah...sure...I still vividly remember how you tried to set me up to look for some stupid treasure…"

That truly was a long time ago. The freshly formed party met with Kaeya who told them that he was actually a pirate and that he was looking for his grandfather's lost treasure.

Obviously, Lumine, the woman that couldn't get a hint, and the trio of Paimon, Fischl and Hu Tao were all excited to look for a secret treasure and ruins and whatnot, while Yomite went drinking with Kaeya as he obviously saw through him and knew he was making it all up.

Yomite used that chance fully, to earn himself some alone time full of peace and quiet.

(Good times.)
