If I may pose a hypothetical question.

For a being that has existed many a millenia, what would be information most pertinent to their enjoyment of a... modernized life?

[ Yeah this absolutely has nothing to do with him. He's not 6,000 years old and still doesn't understand how to use the microwave in his inn room, nope. ]

Zhongli! Have you figure out the joys of taking pictures with your smartphone yet? If not, I'd be more than happy to show you! I'll just need your smartphone.

Also, there are things inside bars called karaoke!

[ ...............why does the bard know more than he does??? ]

[saxum]

I am perfectly capable of learning such things upon my own volition.

[ .................. ]

What is karaoke?

[concierto]

Hmm... Are you so sure? Can you show me a picture of yourself that you've taken with your camera? I just want to exchange photos, old friend.

[Prove it, old man!]

And karaoke is a joy that I've learned that is better shown in person. I hope you don't find yourself busy sometime soon.

[He's going to drag Zhongli there. Yep.]

[saxum]

I've not had a need to take photos, thus I have none. When the time is right I shall offer one to you.

[ AKA he needs to figure out how to turn on the camera function in the first place. ]

Bard. Does karaoke include drinking?

[concierto]

[Aww, come now! Give Venti the phone so he can tastefully rearrange his contacts...! Or- show him how to use the camera setting. Yeah.]

A picture speaks a thousand words, Zhongli. I only want to keep one of yours! Don't hold back on me now.

[Ehe.]

And most taverns and bars do include drinking one way or another. Care for an evening of drinks with me?

[saxum]

[ Why keep a picture of him, he's not going anywhere... we're both immortal Venti. ]

I see the reasoning to your liking of this karaoke then. I shall have to decline your offer. I'm not interested in watching you make a fool of yourself in front of others.

[concierto]

[Why is Zhongli rejecting his date?? It's totally innocent.

He sighs softly and dramatically.]

I wouldn't be making a fool of myself, it's merely a test of this world's traditions! Isn't that important to you, Zhongli? Experiencing the world as it's meant to be? Learning what a modernized life truly means?

[saxum]

[ This fuckin drunkard twink. ]

While I cannot doubt I am curious to understand this particular land's customs, being so vastly different from our world completely, I am hesitant to throw myself into the deepest recesses of base indulgences.

[ God of Freedom? More like God of Booze. ]

However I would be remiss to ignore this opportunity. Occupy yourself as you see fit, bard. If I accompany you it shall be only once. Not for your sake, or the sake of your drinking habits.

[concierto]

And here I thought you'd be happy enough to share a drink and a chat with an old friend... Alas. How long has it been now? Maybe retirement has made you even more fickle.

[Zhongli, stop being an old stick in the mud and go on a date night with him wtf.]

If you do end up showing your face, I hope you know I won't let you get away without listening to a song, at least! We can't have you meandering around without any knowledge of what real karaoke is. I'm only trying to help!

[Even if Venti himself is still learning what "real karaoke" is-]
