[ ooc: No worries! They can butt-touch during the raid. In the meantime, Thoma sent a gift with Childe. ]
[ His body aches too much for him to do much then watch Kaeya retreat quickly as if Kaeya himself had now just realized he'd been holding back. It might have been an unconscious gesture, but it's one Thoma appreciates as he's sure he wouldn't have been able to save Kaeya's target otherwise.
At least it's proof that Kaeya's humanity hasn't been completely stripped, but Thoma isn't naive enough to think he'll be fortunate the next time they meet. As much as he'd like to avoid to fighting, it's getting less and less likely that he'll survive long if he doesn't, and he can't afford for his shard to be broken in this world.
There are two people waiting back home for him, just like he knows Kaeya has his own allies, even if he may not believe they're still alive. Maybe next time they meet, he'll have better proof to offer that Teyvat still stands. ]
Goodbye, Kaeya...
[ It's murmured more to himself as Thoma sinks even further and catches his breath, already anticipating the next fight up to come. ]
