I...

[ it's what the traveler and paimon would say, and back then she wouldn't have believed it. but having cloud here with her, sharing his own brand of struggles and vice versa -- it almost makes up for the fun she'd missed back home. ]

There's someone back home who said... that winds always change their course. I don't know when I'll ever change their minds about me, but. [ there's a slight flush on her cheeks as she looks up at cloud with a small smile. ] Just hearing that from you makes me believe that it'll definitely happen one day. Thank you.

[ she's. definitely not used to being sappy, though. it's really not her thing, so she's going to take a looooong sip from her drink until it's thoroughly drained. ]

[ Oh, that smile gets him right in the heart. She has such a pretty smile, he thinks, addled by the alcohol and lingering for just a moment longer than it would have taken to discard if he was entirely sober. ]

...No problem. And— even if the people back home don't change their minds about you, that just means they're all the more fools for not seeing the person you really are.

There are people who would treat me like trash just because I'm ex-SOLDIER. They might have their reasons, but if that's all they see... well. Then their opinion doesn't matter much anyway, right?

[ He's gesturing with one hand, the faint flush of intoxication finally starting to show on his end. ]

[disagree]

[ it really is easier said than done. she's heard that before -- amber, sara, the traveler and paimon. and from the bottom of her heart, she wants to believe it so bad.

but after hearing it from cloud, someone who wasn't even from mondstadt, there's no reason why she wouldn't take his word for it. ]

...You're right. You're absolutely right, Cloud. But you shouldn't be getting hate for fighting valiantly out there as an ex-soldier, either.

[ that's... that's what he meant, right? but seriously. nothing else matters now, except the opinions of her peers. god, the fact that she has peers now... she'll never get over it. ]

Let's raise a toast to it. Just to make it official. [ she may or may not be getting drunk too, with how she's becoming less reserved with that proposition as she raises her glass. ] Cheers?

[ He scoffs for a minute. He'll explain exactly what he meant by 'SOLDIER' another time, maybe. And how it had some similarities to Eula's own situation — a group with no one's best wishes at heart, least of all the people who were meant to fight for them. But that's a talk for another time — they're both a bit too deep in their cups for it to come out eloquently. ]

Yeah.

Cheers. [ He raises his glass, and clinks it with Eula's. ] To knowing whose opinions matter, and whose don't.
