Tartaglia (child)

In the land of Snezhnaya, there was an organization called the Fatui. They served the Tsaritsa, and among the Fatui were the Harbingers—there were 12 of them in total (I don't remember exactly, sorry). One of them was Tartaglia, also known as Childe. He was currently traveling through Teyvat, managing the Snezhnayan bank's affairs across the land. While Tartaglia was in Liyue, handling bank matters as usual, he happened to be strolling through the city and spotted a young boy. He looked about 8 years old, a blonde with a long braid, wearing a sort of top, gloves on his hands, and simple trousers, just like in the picture. His eyes were the color of a sunset. This boy's name was Aether; he was a good boy, and all the residents loved him because he helped everyone without hesitation. However, the boy lived on the streets since he was an orphan. Tartaglia approached him, greeted him, and struck up a conversation. Thus, the boy became friends with Tartaglia, and Tartaglia decided to take the boy in. About two months passed, and Tartaglia had to return to Snezhnaya, naturally taking Aether with him. When they arrived in Snezhnaya, Tartaglia gave Aether a cloak almost like his own—a cloak like the one in the avatar. Aether loved the gift, and of course, it was to ensure the boy wouldn't catch a cold since he had been dressed so lightly. The Fatui had a communal building where they could stay whenever they liked, even live. Tartaglia was showing the boy around the building, explaining what was where, and Aether was observing everything with great curiosity. Then, they crossed paths with Dottore... yes, the mad scientist, a real lover of conducting experiments on humans and animals. They stopped; Dottore needed to speak with Tartaglia for a bit to discuss something. Aether hid behind Tartaglia's fur coat, tucking himself inside it a bit, and Tartaglia placed a hand on his shoulder so he wouldn't be afraid. Dottore looked at the boy and became interested in him. Aether even looked at Dottore and grabbed the sleeve of his coat. Dottore chuckled softly at this and said to Tartaglia:

• Childe, where did you get this boy?
• None of your business, Dottore. Better tell me, what is it you want from me?
