=================================================================2 months later
"Alright! For today's lesson you two must go do an act of kindness! For Gia, help someone in the first reality you find, and for Wanderer whatever you find first here." Nahida says.
"Okay." They agreed.
A few hours later
"Alright! So, what act of kindness did you do?" Nahida asked.
"I stopped a cart from running someone over." Kazeharu answered.
"I'm doomed." Gia said.
"Huh? Why?" Nahida asked.
"You told me to help someone in the first reality I found. That first reality was one of the most dangerous realities!"
"How so?" Haru asked.
"To put it shortly, in this reality, the version of me is a doctor in a mental hospital. These people there are so freaking insane. They suffer a lot of mental disorders, and they all have obsessions. They've killed every doctor they had if they happen to try to escape. And whoopee, I'm everyone's favorite doctor of all time! If I try to escape, I'm getting captured, tortured, killed in a gruesome way, you get the point. And since I'm trading places with other me, I'm never getting out there."
"So people being obsessed with you are going to cause your downfall. HAH!" Kazeharu teased.
"That isn't funny Wanderer!" Nahida chided.
"Yeah, and you are coming with me by the way!"
"No, I'm not."
"Yep! Nahida is coming too, right?"
"Sure! I'll help."
"Great! I'll ask Venti for help, along with the Traveler and…I can't bring Dottore right?''
"Hell no!" Haru yelled.
"But…He's actually kind! When I make him!"
"I think you need to go to that hospital. Il Dottore is NOT kind!" Wanderer yelled back.
"Fine. Capitano."
"He's alright to bring." Nahida said.
"Hmph!" Kazeharu huffed.
*Pop!*
================================================================="Hello my favorite bard!"
"Hey Gia!"
"I need your help."
"Oh? With what?"
"I'm doomed, so I thought if you come to this reality and help me, I'll be less doomed!"
"Why are you doomed?"
''Nahida told me to do something kind, so that's what I'm doing. I'm trading places with other me who's a doctor at a mental hospital with people that suffer from mental illnesses and obsession."
"Oh."
"And I need help getting other me to be safe and out there. Or get a cure for these problems. Be warned, you are in this hospital and so is Morax. And a bunch of vision holders. And a half god. And an adeptus. And the Traveler and her brother. AND-"
"I get it! A lot of dangerous people. I'll be careful! So what do we need to do?"
"Help create a cure for them. It happened suddenly; It started raining and everyone in the rain turned insane!"
"I'll come help!"
"Great! I'm getting Capitano, the Traveler, Nahida, and Kazeharu to help."
*Pop!*
================================================================="Venti here agreed! Now I just need the Captain… WAIT." Gia said.
"Hm?" they asked.
"I just remembered something!"
"What?" Kazeharu asked.
"Once again, I've forgotten a crucial fact. I can either create a clone or ask a dear friend of mine! And since just making a clone is boring, we're meeting my friend!"
"Who is your 'friend'?" Nahida asked.
"Why, the Universe!"
"WHAT?" they asked.
"Oh, sorry. I'm friends with the Universe! I'm also friends with their best friend! But we're meeting them directly."
"I'm sorry-How do you know the Universe?" Venti asked.
"I come from the same plane of existence as them. So, they're like a neighbor to me!"
"That's awesome!" Lumine exclaimed.
"Yep!"
"Can we not just do the simple thing?" Haru asked.
"Buzz kill! But fine. We're still meeting the Universe though. Consider it a great honor!"
"…"
"I thought you couldn't create clones." Haru said.
"I learned from Dottore and modified it to make it happen in an instant, and it doesn't have to be a different age. Observe."
Gia then created a clone. She opened a portal and sent it through, saying, "Alright! You gotta help cure these people."
The Gia clone nodded and walked through.
"Alright! Hold on, I'm gonna get a friend of mine. After that, it is time to meet the Universe! You guys prepared?"
"How can you be prepared to meet the literal Universe?" Haru asked.
"Good question. Be right back!" Gia announced with a *Pop!*
"I can't believe she forgot such a major thing!" Kazeharu complained.
"Well, good thing she remembered before we went in." said Venti.
=================================================================Gia walked to Wangshu Inn with a plate of almond tofu in hand.
"Alatus? I mean…Xiao! Oh Xiao!" she called. In a flash of anemo, he appeared.
"It's been a long time, Aleshk."
"It's Gia now…How have you been?"
"Fine…You? Find any realities?"
"I'm well! I've found so many! I'm going to stay in this reality though! Of course, I'll still go to others. Anyways, do you know where to find Zhongli?"
"He's having tea at his favorite place…You know where right?"
"Yep! Oh, wait, it's been a millennium! Time for cleansing."
They grabbed each other's wrists. Gia hummed a soft tune and Xiao's arm was engulfed in white. It then faded away.
"Feel better?"
"Yeah…"
"Before I go, I wanted to say…I-I'm sorry." Gia said.
"For?" Xiao asked.
"For-Not being able to help the others…"
"Oh. I…I don't blame you. It isn't your fault, either way I forgive you. "
"…Thank you."
*Pop!*
"Hello Zhongli! Long time no see!"
"Oh, Aleshk. Very long time indeed. How have you been?"
"I've been well! You?"
"Yes, I've been well too. What brings you here?"
"Just wanted to stop bye before I go introduce some friends to the Universe. Want to come?"
"Depends. Who're you bringing?''
"Nahida, Venti, the Traveler, and Kazeharu."
"2 other archons are going to be there?"
"Yeah. It's okay if you don't want to come!"
"No, I'll come."
"Great!"
*Pop!*
================================================================="Alright I got Zhongli! Now we can go meet the one, the only, Universe! Everyone grab one of my arms!"
*Pop!*
================================================================="Hello guards! It's me! Can you request an audience with Universe?"
"Welcome back Aleshk…and welcome friends?" one of the guards greeted.
*Ring!*
"Who is it?"
"It's your #2, Aleshk, and some of her friends."
"Let them in!"
They walked into a white throne room and bowed.
"No need to bow…Hello my dear friend! What brings you here?" Universe asked.
"Just wanted to introduce my friends to you! And they can ask 1 question too!"
"It's an honor to meet you." Everyone but Haru said.
"Thank you! So, anyone have a question?"
Lumine stepped forward. "I just want to know…Will me and my brother be together again?"
"Yes, but whether or not alive and well depends what path you take."
Lumine nodded and stepped back.
"My question is…Will the Wanderer find love?" Nahida asked. Haru rolled his eyes.
"It can come from 1 of 2 sources." The Universe answered.
"That's good! He deserves it!'' Nahida said.
"Will Teyvat be free?" Venti questioned.
"Free from Celestia and the Heavenly Principles, yes. Teyvat may have a cruel ruler, a peaceful ruler, or may not have a ruler at all. It all depends on the choices everyone makes."
"Thank you." Venti said.
"Now, anyone else have a question?"
The rest shook their heads no.
"Alright then! Have you been enjoying my #2's company?"
They nodded their heads.
"That's great! She's one of my best friends! She told me that reality is her favorite! That's saying something because there are soooo many realities!"
"There's a lot of weird realities, realities that make me mad, and realities that make me smile! A lot of realities make me cry though…But this one makes me happy!" Gia exclaimed.
"Yeah, she's always talking about everyone there! Especially that Kazeharu…All good things don't worry!"
"What good things?" Haru asked with his brow raised.
"She's saying how she's very impressed! She loves your eyes and hat sooo much; apparently your eyes are mesmerizing and your hat is beautiful, and so are your clothes!
"ANYWAYS, we should get going! Bye best friend!" Gia waved.
*Pop!*
================================================================="The Universe was not how I imagined them to be…" Zhongli muttered.
"Yeah, she's been spending too much time observing Earth!"
"What were they about to say Gia?'' Haru asked.
"Umm…"
"It sounded like you're-" Kazeharu started to say with a smirk.
"Hehe…Venti why don't we go have wine! ANYWHERE but here!" Gia cried.
"Alright!"
*Pop!*
