september 1st; [Childe told Izumi he was interested in the Kaika Company, and he's by and large a man of his word. Sometimes his word is something like "you shouldn't trust me", but, you know. It's his word and he was right about that.
Still, he shows up to put his money where his mouth is in a very literal sense. He's been busy since arriving in this new world - while he had the funding of Northland Bank back home, here he has to rely on himself. He's spent a lot of his time working and questing to get himself a significant cushion, which has come in handy more times than he'd like to admit. He really needs to stop buying things for people... Still, he's here to spend money and support the arts! And his new future job, possibly.
He's not crazy about cupcakes, but he will buy something to drink and stop by the curry roulette table.]
So one of these is extra spicy, huh?
[He's gotten somewhat used to the food in Liyue, so it should be fine, right? Right?
He grabs one at random, biting into it with vigor. He chews for a moment. Swallows.
And his face very quickly starts getting redder than his hair.]
Ahaha, oh, wow, that's. That packs a punch!
[He's dying. Goodbye, cruel world, and thanks for nothing.]
september 5th; [Childe does not actually die via curry bread, so he returns to Kaika Theatre to give it his all during the auditions. Despite, or perhaps because of, everything Childe is, he's a natural on stage. He does, technically, have experience with acting, and he spends his time waiting for his turn trying to chat with the others around.]
Y'know, I've never done an audition before. This should be fun!
[Of course he's not the slightest bit nervous.
And, unsurprisingly, because Izumi is Izumi, he passes! He's at least polite enough to thank the Director, and to anyone who seems willing to listen he'll just cheerfully say:]
Man, it's so much different from opera! It also helps when you know the lines, huh?
childe appears nonetheless!!
