[ he picks up but—]

If you start making whale noises I'm gonna cut you off.

[ and that earns an immediate laugh… one that’s a lot higher pitched than it should be. hm. ]

Hi.

…

Are you going to bring my snacks?

No.

Was that you trying to get my attention so I would bring you food?

Did it work! But you should bwing me some candy!

... Are you okay?

...? [ stares at the phone. ] Uhm, yah!, I f'ink I'm otay. Are you going to bwing me that candy? I'll be even more otay if you do!

No you are definitely not okay. You're talking weird. And since when do you like candy this much?

Nauh! I'm not tawking funny. [ huffs, making a face at the phone that five can't see. ] ...dunno. It looked dewicious and I'm hungwy. I'll find it mysewf if you're not gonna help.

Are you baby talking me? This is getting even more weird. Should I call Zhongli? Where are you?

I AM NOT A BABY! Zhongwi?

[ . . . ]

[ looks around. ]

Wobby! but becawse you're not cooperwating not for much longer. I'm gonna find a snack mySEWF!

Stay there. And on the phone. I'm giving you some cake or whatever.

No.

[ and he's trying to leave the lobby to be a spiteful little shit. ]

I can get my own cake! Better cake!

[ but he can't push the door open so... five will find a small child[e] trying his VERY BEST. ]

[ he was totally lying about the cake anyway so that would have been a good call. But fortunately Childe is too small to get away and he's going up to him as soon as he sees him ]

Jesus. This isn't what I meant when I thought I'd like to be taller than you.

[ his fox bits are extra fluff by the way and as soon as five approaches he turns around, presses himself flush against the door, ...and growls. BE AFRAID. ]

I'll... I'll bite you!

[ it is not even the least bit effective he's going to reach for him to pick him up ]

What did you eat.

[ bristles! fluffing up to the max, and he’s absolutely going to try to bite five. it definitely doesn’t hurt and is honestly probably more annoying than anything. ]

[ om nom nom. ]

[ swiftly realizes that he’s getting nowhere. ]

You. I’m full now. [ he’s not full and the grumble from his stomach can attest to that. ] Shhhhhhhhhhh! [ moves his tail around to block his stomach and try to muffle the grumbling. ]

Well you must have gotten somewhere to be turned into a child again. I haven't seen anyone else with this effect, so it can't be a game again.

I hope.

[ the biting does nothing, obviously, but he does try to secure his hold on him a bit better. ]

You can turn into a fox and I'll let you hite in my clothes.

I dwank somefing. A potion. [ he’s going to keep wiggling around to make it hard on five. ] But what if I want to stay a me? [ don’t mind him trying to stuff his tiny hands into any pockets five’s got on his person. ]

…you lied about the cake.

Well, you said you would get your own, so I didn't bring any.

[ how dare you bring logic into this. ]

[ his stomach grumbles again. ] Five senseeeei. [ baps his chest. ] But I’m hungwy and I’m gonna die. [ being just a touch over dramatic. ] I need it.

If you're hungry you should eat something a little more nutritious than a snack or a cake.

[ but he is going outside, still carrying him ]

[ he is going to change into a fox and then quickly wiggle his way out of five’s arms to hide in his robes. pokes his head out, ears twitching and tail wagging. ]

I’ll eat whatever first then, but I want you to promise me you’ll get me something sweet after. [ lifts his hand and holds out his pinky. ]

I promise, but I'm not going to piky swear.

How come? Are you scawed, sensei? [ laughs. in. his face. ]

Because I'm not a child.
