 So, random thought: do you think this place is listening to us talk to each other like this? I mean, something here is alive, right? You suddenly get magical veins pulsing everywhere that somehow give us telepathy, plus the fact that there's a bloody beating heart underground!  I don't know about you, but I bet it's all connected somehow. It's got to be!

[ he sounds certain, but just as quickly as his thought ends, another, more lighthearted one follows. this doesn't have to be a Pepe Silvia situation, and he doesn't want it to be. ]

...Either that, or I'm going completely mad. But on the off chance I'm not and my natural genius is leading to some wild breakthrough, humour me for a sec - what would you want to say if you could talk to it directly? [ and before anyone has the chance to answer, he adds- ] And no "Take me home!", 'cuz that's too obvious. 

[ everyone wants to go home. he's pretty sure that's been made abundantly clear by now... or at least he hopes it has. ]

Oh yeah? [ he chuckles. ] Alright... I think I like your name for 'em better than mine. So, were you able to send thoughts like this back in Teyvat, or did the void take some liberties with it?

[ the mechanic feels a bit invasive, but maybe it was the norm where Zhongli is from. if it was, maybe he can get some pointers on how to use them properly. ]

Sounds like something easier said than done.

I would think its telepathic function is something taken from another world. Ordinary humans would not be able to tap into the ley lines of Teyvat.

[ It would be something that gods could do, but Zhongli is masquerading as a mortal here, so... ]

Everyone would need to be agreeing on the same thing as well. Locating all the inhabitants physically would take time.

I wonder where they picked that part up, then. [ very curious! well, this is an open forum; if anyone else is picking up on his question, they can chime in. ] I'm still getting used to hearing people in my head, honestly... Maybe I can teach them to text, instead.

[ please, don't. ]

It'd take some serious networking, let alone organizing and negotiating... but I'd be willing to give it a shot! What've we got to lose, right?

[pragmatism]

Would you take on the task, since you have been here awhile?

[ Zhongli is more of the sort to keep to himself. Plus, he already has someone that would not willingly work with him. Raihan doesn't seem like the sort to shy away from networking, he'll definitely know more people. ]
