I think I shall pass but I think a certain exorcist might be willing!

[After all, she doesn't have the time to clean up! She was much too busy trying to find ways to promote her business. Even in a strange new world, she needs to keep herself busy. That and the idea of cleaning was much too boring for her, she would rather do anything but cleaning.

With a sigh, she ventured further into the place before raising an eyebrow or two.

So far, she was hoping to find something interesting that she could find out about her friend. Perhaps something that she would embarrass him with? Nothing really comes to mind despite knowing how much of a mess he was.]

And here I thought I was hoping to find something else about you.

[How disappointing.]

Oh! Then you already know that Chongyun is also here in the city. Incidentally, we are currently sharing this living space...

[ Which begs to question how it got so messy; at this point, it could be easy to assume that the exorcist may have gotten fed up with cleaning after Xingqiu or more than likely the mess was made after Chongyun left to go on one of his excursions. It's often that Chongyun seeks to go in search of clues, often, Xingqiu will join him but he has been here so long that most avenues have already been explored. However, he doesn't miss the opportunity to spend time with his friend. Today is a rare occurrence which is fortunate for Hu Tao otherwise he may not have thought to send a message.

Now watching her as she scans the room they're standing in, he can guess she is trying to decipher something. Although he wonders if she is trying to get to know him better. She could have been a guest at his home back in Liyue but partaking in their shared hobby there would have been much more difficult. He hasn't exactly received much in the way of encouragement towards that subject.

When she finally speaks again, he smiles, and there is the sound of a suppressed laugh. ]

I do believe I've already shared something with you but if you wish I can teach you something else.

[It explains why things have gotten so messy. While she could understand Xingqiu not wanting to clean up after himself, it was another to hear how Chongyun wasn't much for chores either. Crossing her arms, she stared at the place once more as she pondered just how much they could get away with. Or better yet, she also wondered what would happen should she decide to stay here.

Was it going to get even worse? Perhaps, she wasn't once for cleaning either. But at the same time, she wasn't sure where else to go. She could find a place of her own but it seemed so much liver to be staying with friends...]

And what might that be? What else can you teach me?

[She gave a smirk as she pondered what else he might do.]

[ Rather than deeming Chongyun messy perhaps he finds that sharing living quarters with Xingqiu is overwhelming; not due to how disorganized Xingqiu is! It's been noted by Xingqiu on occasion and it does make him smile slyly. Chongyun can be so naive and entirely chaste at times. Really that's what she would be dealing with when it comes to these two boys here. Of course, when he invited her over he thought to give her temporary refuge, or depending on how she felt she could extend that stay.

That means they will have to come to some consensus on how to keep this place tidy. Two could be messy enough, with Xingqiu being the more disorganized one but adding a third. They could figure it out later right now, he takes his phone out. ]

Remember what I said earlier through messages? I'll show you how to use those images. Here follow along carefully.

[ Getting close to Hu Tao so that she could see his phone's screen he is going to show her exactly what he did to send those texts earlier that included the bunny emojis. ] It's really simple, don't you think? I know you're clever enough to get it on the first try.

[As she raised an eyebrow at the phone, it didn't take her long to realize what he was saying. With her eyes widening, she couldn't help but give a small gasp before nodding her head.]

Of course, please do tell me how you use those faces! Don't hold back, let me know everything!

[She said before looking at her own phone too. As she got it out, she was scrolling through to see where he might have gotten those faces from. So far, it seems that her search was fruitless as she gave a sigh.]

...What a bother....

[ Inserting the images into messages isn't difficult, but it isn't obvious either. It functions much like sending pictures or sound. He pulls up their last exchange on his phone and presses the tab that has the emojis. Of course, this shows basic face emojis. His gaze flickers over to her face to catch her expression and what he sees is disinterest. ]

Try over here. This here.

[ He doesn't know that the ribbon he selects from is called "stickers" and that's where he seems to have gotten a variety of images. In fact, it's from here that he can send pictures and songs. Not that he has any music on his phone. He doesn't know about that! He soon swipes over to the bunny stickers. ]

See. Yours doesn't have it... Perhaps you have to do something first to get them to appear. I know I was looking around and it asked me if I wanted to... download(?) stickers.

[As soon as she saw what he did, he had to copy what he was doing. Looking at the tab that said emojis, she raised an eyebrow or two. While it did show her some faces, she had to wonder just how common it was if there was a whole section for it...

Either way, she didn't think too much of it. Instead, she'll just look for said ribbon that says "stickers". Narrowing her eyes at her phone, there wasn't anything on there just yet. However...?]

Then how do I 'download' these stickers? Perhaps I could find something that is a little different from rabbits?

[ It doesn't surprise him that rabbits don't exactly garner her attention no matter how adorable he might find them. Then again, rabbits don't exactly bring Hu Tao to mind which leaves him to wonder what she would want. Although looking at his own phone, he knew he had played around with it out of boredom one day and that's how he came upon the option to get those images. ]

So if not rabbits then what do you prefer?

[ He tries messing around with his phone to see if the option for more images comes up. It took him a moment, he hadn't been paying full attention when he had been exploring what the device had to offer. ] Look here, see, I think you can select from this spot. Did you follow or should I do that again?

Look there sure are a lot more rabbits to choose from.

No, I don't think you need to. I'm sure if I look around, there would be some 'stickers' that I'd like.

[That said, as she scrolled through the various images is said 'sticker' section, there were quite a few that didn't seem to interest her. Was she being picky or was she just struggling to find out what she might like? Either way, it seemed to be a bother until there was something that came up.

Narrowing her eyes, it seems that there was one she might use often.]

How about this one? This seems lie something I would a lot!

[She said before showing him a series of stickers on her phone.]
