Hi Manabu!!!!!!!
Hey this is really out of nowhere but have any monsters approached you?
Like hit on you
Like they were interested in you
Romantically
Or you know
[ The other "ly" that he's uncomfortable with typing ]

[Early Christmas morning wrapped up in a towel and nuzzled in a basket with sprigs of evergreen pines and dried orange slices will be a peach pie.
Attached is a card with elegant writing:]
Merry Christmas, Manabu!
I hope you stay warm and safe!
Love,
Snow White

[The morning of the 25th yields an unmarked package that shows up to Manabu's door, tied with a small decorative rope that seems to be securing an envelope to it. Inside is a letter that reads as thus:]
Dear Manabu,
I hope that this letter finds you well. I know it's been some time since the last we spoke, and I hope your recovery after returning home was swift. We don't have Christmas in Teyvat, but I know this is a widely celebrated holiday among those from other worlds, so I've sent you something all the same. Winters here are reminiscent of the ones back in my hometown, and the white snowy landscape has always brought joy to me and my family. Enclosed are a pair of fingerless glove mittens that I think you'll find useful. They're quite handy if you're going ice fishing or even having a snowball fight, and hand warmers fit perfectly into the mitten portion! I hope they serve you well.
Sincerely,
Childe

[He's gotten better at using the Omni that he's figured out how to do video calls.]
Manabu! Look! [He sounds excited. The screen pans over to the table in his kitchen, and there sitting on top of the table is a black Japanese bobtail cat looking straight at the camera, likely unamused.] I think I've figured out my Omen.

[it takes a while to get back to this. Manabu's not there - not in the house, not anywhere...he's in that alternate Trench, that pocket dimension where Sodder's still revered, where...where Ryunosuke's died.
he's there for two days more. two days before he can stagger back into "reality," and even then, he's disoriented. so two days and some change before he can catch this message.
raspy, strained:] Jun. Whereh-- Where? Are you?

Vi let me know you all got back from the other Trench. Is there anything you could use?
Hey Manabu, it's been a bit. Sorry about that.
But I was wondering - when are we going to try another expedition? I know we still have to fortify what we've got, but it's been a few months and I'm itching to explore.

Oh this is naraa right?/
Im not sure
I should probably ask d since he kind of took up a bigger mantle in getting things set up
But im not sure we should be going out anytime soon because its going to be getting dangerously cold soon
Maybe after mushroom season

Can you stop singing? It's very annoying.
do you think it would just be better if your father was not around
[ .. that's a very ominous yet text to receive out of nowhere, huh. ]
i mean if he was not around here and you got a chance to see him
would you take it

[There's the distinct faraway noise of things crashing through the trees and heavy breathing. It sounds less humanoid and more... animalistic?]
[When he does speak, it's clear it's Nara'a talking to his omen... but his voice is wrong. Rougher and deeper, an almost bestial sound.]
Tell him... tell him to forget... about -
[He coughs, and there's the sound of something spattering, hitting the ground in clumps.]
... Tell him to not... come after me... it's too dangerous...
If... if he's hearing this... Manabu... I'm s -
[He breaks into another coughing fit, more spattering. The transmission cuts off.]

[it really, really doesn't take a lot of guesses. Nara'a's voice may be strangled and struggling, but given his encounters recently? there's no doubt when he processes what he's receiving.]
Nara'a. [when the sound cuts off, louder:] Nara'a. [in earnest, to both him, the omen, whatever's transmitting:] Give me your location! Before you hurt someone! I'm coming-!

[It's been about five days since... well. Since Manabu did what he had to do. On the fifth day, a message lands in the man's inbox.]
... I... I'm sorry. I can't excuse my behavior, so I won't. But... I am sorry.
That's... that's all I wanted to say...
