[ Zhongli has really only been in the presence of one other shard-bearing Advocate, and they both had such old man vibes that he didn't quite realize that those feelings and emotions were not his own. The static and white noise confuse him and he begins to breath in long slow steady breaths to calm himself when---
Oh.
That's not him.
Hmmm. Zhongli listens patiently to what Kaeya says, keeping his breathing even and offering what calmness he can. He even adds small clarifying questions to try and parse some of those thoughts because there are so many threads he's trying to follow. Kaeya has been busy. Very busy, it seems.
There is a small bit of uneasiness lying under the surface though. Like an itch prickling between one's shoulder blades that they just can't scratch. (Zhongli still doesn't know where some of his sand went and that lapse in memory has him on edge.) ]
Captain Kaeya.
It seems you are trying to take on enough work for half a dozen Knights. Might I ask what you think is most important to accomplish in your time here?
