[It says a lot that the moment he's given the chance, he leans into Kaeya, allowing himself a deep breath to calm down. This is something he's worried about ever since he finally convinced himself that Lumine was, in fact, really here. It took about a day to accept that he wasn't just dreaming.]
[But to think this happiness could still be ripped away from him someday, like waking from a dream... he doesn't know if his heart could handle that.]
I'm not asking you to avoid her. I don't think that would be possible anyway. And-- I don't want to lose you, either.
[Since realistically, taking Lumine somewhere far away in the land of Nippon where he'd never see his friends from Teyvat again is really the only means he'd have of ensuring she'd never remember. But just the thought of that is too sad to seriously consider.]
Just... I don't know if she ever would, but if she ever asks... if her memories ever start coming back... don't say anything about it to her. Not about Khaenri'ah, or the Abyss Order, or... anything they're involved with.
The only reason I remembered finding her on Teyvat at all is because I was talking about her with someone. And the memories just suddenly came back to me, as if I had gone and come back from Teyvat and experienced all that lost time in an instant. If that happened to her... I wouldn't even know what to expect.
