[Ah--Dehya holds her hand gentle and steady, gives Freminet a chance to absorb the gesture completely as harmless.]
Well... it's not like this matters much to anyone not from Teyvat, right? No need for us to go around telling people. But if you did, your crew all seem like good people.
[Looking at her hand, he took another deep breath before nodding his head. He didn't want to think about telling the others yet. He already had to deal with the backlash from those from his homeworld. However, it was still something he had to do.]
...I hope they understand. I never intended for all of this to happen, I don't know what I would do if they reject us.
[Freminet couldn't argue against that. Indeed, it would have been better for the both of them to talk about it together. And yet, he knew that Lyney probably wouldn't that to prevent him from dealing with the backlash.]
You got it. [Dehya smiles a bit softer, then gets up to order them both a slice of the recommended cake. Something sweet with lots of chocolate shavings and berries.]
He thinks he knows best for both of you. But you know, doesn't mean you shouldn't push back until he gets that he doesn't have to do everything alone. He cares a lot about you, so he'll listen when he realizes that's not doing right by you.
What I mean is, don't give up on the effect you have on him as your brother. That means you're important.

[Lyney means well, but it's clear this is just as important to Freminet to face directly. He's a good kid, really. Shouldn't be with the Fatui.]
You know, we haven't even ordered anything yet. What do you want? My treat.

But you don't have to do that...

...You already are doing so much, Ms. Dehya. You are much too kind.

[So maybe it'll soothe Freminet a little, too.]

I can try but...that is an order that will be difficult to complete.

Doesn't listen to me sometimes and even then, it's still questionable.

You want to wrap this up or....?
Thank you, Ms. Dehya. I'll try to keep that in mind. I just hope that he can listen to me and my advice as he can be really stubborn.
