Paimon's Companion Keeps Flirting with the Tone-Deaf Bard

Use 1 Cecilia to send love and blessings to the Anemo Archon?

.

"Venti, what kind of flower do you like?"

Huh.

Is Aether really asking what kind of flower does Tone-Deaf Bard like?

"Eh? …Very cunning, trying to cheat, are we?"

"Ahem…"

Even Jean is so done with their flirting now! At least this time Paimon is not alone while these two are flirting!

Aether tries to act dumb but even Paimon knows what Tone-Deaf Bard's favourite flower. How could Paimon not know when Paimon has to accompany Aether hikes Starsnatch Cliff once every three days just to collect Cecilias?

Ascension material, he said.

Don't joke with Paimon!

Paimon has been collecting flowers and ores with Aether for so many of our friends that Paimon knows exactly how many are needed to help them get stronger. And it's only this particular flower that Aether keeps collecting regularly. Hiking Starsnatch Cliff is so exhausting, you know!?

Oh, and even if no one realises, Paimon does realise how Tone-Deaf Bard is keeping the flower on his hat fresh every day. They're without a doubt the result of the Paimon's hard work hiking the cliff.

Even if Aether is indeed secretly supplying Tone-Deaf Bard's silly hat with Cecilia, he definitely does not need that many. What does he even use those flowers for? Eat it for breakfast!?

Okay wait, wait, wait.

This is getting worse now.

Did Aether just say he would offer Cecilia to the Anemo Archon?

Aether, listen. Jean had just said to consider your choice carefully twenty-nine seconds ago! You are representing the whole of Mondstadt!

Technically, the Anemo Archon is Tone-Deaf Bard.

But please, involving personal feelings in front of all these people in plaza? You're embarrassing Paimon!

Paimon can't even complain now since we're in the middle of the plaza, and Tone-Deaf Bard is still hiding his identity as their Anemo Archon.

Alright.

Since Paimon is Aether's best travel companion, the one and only bestest travel companion…

… Paimon will just hold back from complaining about anything now and give Paimon's cutest smile in response to Aether's choice of Windblume offering.

"Oh! Same idea as Beatrice, Cecilias for Windblumes. Pretty niche, but not without advocates!"

Dear Archons, Paimon knows Aether's reason for picking Cecilia has nothing to do with Beatrice.
