Signora
Well well. If it isn't our pyro user strolling in ten minutes late once again.
Diluc
I don't want to spend more time here than necessary.
Signora
Believe me, the feeling is mutual.
Childe

Childe

Diluc
Tch.
Childe

Scaramouche
they dropped the area hours ago
Scaramouche
other teams could’ve cleared it
Signora
Well, you certainly have higher expectations of other teams than I do.
Signora
There is a reason our team is still top 10 despite having nonexistent teamwork.
Childe
no signora u cant be calm
Childe
u gotta feed scaramouche's conspiracy theories
Scaramouche
oh you think they're conspiracies, do you?
Scaramouche

Paimon
Hello Travelers!
Paimon
Today, the newest floor to the Spiral Abyss was added.
Paimon
Dozens of teams have already attempted this daunting challenge, but none have been able to clear it yet.
Paimon
Which team will prevail? What lays beyond the abyss?!
Paimon
We’ll have all the breaking news for you right here, so don’t miss out.
Paimon
What’s this? It appears that Team BP has arrived on the scene!
Paimon
For those who are new to the game, Team BP is currently ranked number 8 in the world.
Paimon
They have been responsible for clearing approximately 30% of the abyss chambers.
Paimon
Their members are all on the top 20 most powerful players list.
Paimon
They sure suck at working together, but at the very least there’s no shortage of explosions and property damage when they’re there!
Paimon
For more information, Outrider Amber is on the scene!

Diluc, Scaramouche, Signora
Signora
Scaramouche, if you hit me one more time I will break your fingers in real life.
Signora
Sometimes I wonder why I’m on the same team as you buffoons.
Childe
o signora hey
Childe
didn’t see u all the way back here
Childe
taking a break?
Signora
No, I am simply waiting for the right moment to swoop in and steal your kill.
Signora
Please carry on.
Childe
huh
Childe
u sure?
Childe
you’ll feel much better if u hack some stuff
Childe
u know what they say
Signora
If you say that line about the candy bar and acting different when I’m hungry one more time, I will freeze your mouth shut.
Childe
u know for someone the same age as all of us
Childe
u sure are a boomer

Amber’s Announcements
Amber
Hey guys! Amber on the scene here.
Amber
Team BP is once again tearing the floor up.
Amber
I can’t see much because Diluc just unleashed his fire birdy attack uselessly at a hoard of pyro slimes but hey, you do you, friend!
Amber
Oh! I hear the sound of the finishing alarm.
Amber
Congrats, folks! That’s another floor cleared.
Amber
Will it be another staircase beyond the door? Or will there actually be—
Amber
Wait, huh?

Diluc
Paimon
Amber
Diluc, Scaramouche, Signora
Signora
That’s not our team next to “First Cleared”.
Signora
Team Liyue? Who is that?
Signora
They do not appear to be ranked.
Childe
o wait
Scaramouche
this wouldn’t have happened if strawberry shortcake pulled his weight
Diluc
I did double the amount of damage you did.
Scaramouche
and you had to be revived SEVEN times
Diluc
You need to do better with the support then.
Childe
what support
Childe
we are literally all dps lol
Diluc
Shut it.
Scaramouche
speaking of fucking pitiful numbers
Scaramouche
childe
Childe

Childe

Signora
A likely excuse.
Childe

Childe

Childe

Childe

Keqing
Just because I turned you down doesn’t mean I don’t have one
Childe

Keqing

Keqing
She’s improved so much. I’m really proud of her
Diluc
Do you have an opening on your team?
Childe

Keqing
Sorry, no
Keqing
We added Xiao a couple weeks ago so we’re all filled up

Childe

Scaramouche
Yay! You’re the best <3
Scaramouche
It’s so difficult playing by myself sometimes, you know? Little old me, against the whole world...
Scaramouche
But now that you’re here, I have nothing to fear anymore <3
Scaramouche

Also don’t use my face.
Childe
hey i have a good excuse this time!
Childe
he complimented my bow skills!!
Keqing
Anyone who compliments your archery skills is immediately sus
Keqing
You suck at it
Childe
Keqing
Anyway, I’ve told you again and again that there have been reports of hacking
Keqing
Do you listen to me at all?
Childe

Hey friend, welcome back! <3
Scaramouche
While you were afk, I stole all your sea conches that you need for character ascension and killed you twice, just because I can <3
Scaramouche
Later, sucker! <3
Childe
wtf
Childe
why would you do that
Scaramouche
you’re one spot higher than me on this month’s rankings
Scaramouche
i’m making sure that it won’t happen again, asshole

Scaramouche
Diluc, Keqing
Keqing
You really decided to be friends with someone like that?
Diluc
He just likes fighting him.
Diluc
The two of them waste all our healing resources fighting each other.
Childe
this wouldn’t have happened if diluc agreed to spar with me
Diluc
No.
Childe
Childe
anyway so he kept coming over to fight me
Childe
and then one day one of the regisvines spawned next to us and scaramouche kinda oneshotted it by accident
Childe
trying to murder me
Childe
and then the media came and ignored the bit about how scaramouche grabbed me and tried to use himself as a lightning rod
Keqing
He what
Childe
and then they started praising our teamwork
Childe
at that point we kinda just had to make a team, y’know?
Childe
the media already hyped us up that much
Diluc
You told me you two were friends.
Childe
well u wouldn’t have joined otherwise!
Childe
also we are friends! i think
Childe
friends with murder, as a treat
Childe
anyway i don’t remember how we added signora
Diluc
She said she wanted to be on a famous team and bandwagon off of our successes.
Diluc
And you let her on because you said you admired her honesty.
Childe
o
Childe
was that what happened? that doesn’t sound like something i’d say
Diluc
Yes it does.
Keqing
Yeah it does
Childe
Keqing
Anyway, forget Genshin
Keqing
You guys want to come over? I got a new game right here that I can’t wait to play
Keqing
You should see the boys in this one. One of them is just there to look pretty and I’m pretty sure he’s going to be your favorite, Childe
Childe
hey!
Diluc
I can be over in five.
Diluc
Should I bring some tissues?
Keqing
Two boxes please. I have a feeling this one’s going to emotionally destroy me
Keqing
Childe, you coming?
Childe
maybe in a bit
Childe
i still haven’t finished this coop event yet haha...
Keqing
You had more than two weeks
Childe
i’ve been busy!
Childe
scaramouche is coming dangerously close to stealing my rank 4
Diluc
Do you need help?
Childe

Childe

Childe
hey wait
Childe
aren’t u the same guy as earlier
Zhongli
Oh, hello.
Zhongli
I was not expecting to run into you again.
Childe
did u request me specifically
Zhongli
No. I did as you instructed and clicked the random matchmaking button.
Childe
huh
Childe
weird coincidence
Childe
anyway, u down for running the event?
Zhongli
Of course.
Zhongli
You are very good at fighting, from what I remember.
Childe
thx
Childe
it’s my specialty
Zhongli
I can see that.
Childe
what about u
Childe
anything ur good at?
Zhongli
I am good at creating shields.
Childe
o yea! ur shields were great
Zhongli
Other than that, no.
Childe
huh?
Zhongli
My damage output is low. My specials do not work most of the time. My attacks are inconsistent and scale terribly.
Childe
o
Zhongli
I have no invincibility frames during my attacks. I can barely generate my own energy particles.
Zhongli
In addition, my petrify ability is unreliable and does not work against some mobs. Dominus Lapidis does pitiful damage and scales wildly based on external terrain.
Zhongli
As my friend Venti always informs me, I am a Useless Good-For-Nothing Blockhead who built my kit completely wrong and put all my assets into my appearance instead.
Childe
uh
Childe
sry ig
Childe
sounds rough
Zhongli
Thank you, but it is alright. I have already accepted it.
Childe
uhh do u wanna just do this coop now
Zhongli
Of course.

Childe

Childe
i think i’m getting robbed
Diluc
What.
Childe
ikr!
Childe
i just feel kinda bad for the guy
Childe
i just watched a hilichurl do more dmg than him
Childe
so it’s consensual robbing! dw about it
Keqing
“Consensual” “Robbing”
Diluc
Childe, do you remember that teams share the same resources?
Childe
o yea lol
Childe
how upset do u think signora’s gonna be when she realizes i spent half of our mora buying this dude atk items
Diluc
Half?
Childe
o oops shouldn’t have said that

Scaramouche
I’ve already made back double what you lost <3
Childe

Scaramouche
an eye for an eye bitch
Childe
ur 100% the reason our team is called team bad personalities
Scaramouche

Scaramouche

Keqing

Keqing
