Half an hour later after Lumine had her intimate talk with Barbara.
Lumine looked around the room, her eyes adapting to the dark as night arrived and light disappeared.
When everything around her started turning black, she grew hesitant whether to go or not, but in the end, she decided it was time.
She quietly got off the bed and crossed through the empty living room towards the door, not making much noise along the way since she was the type that was used to sneaking often.
Once she left the room, Barbara lifted her head and followed her silhouette along the path, moving quietly like a cat.
Lumine didn't notice her at all and quietly entered the bathroom.
Once she was there, a bright light shone inside, illuminating her entire form.
Once she noticed the light, Barbara rushed inside the room, but found nothing.
Lumine was gone.
Not only was the room vacant, but no signs of her presence could be found anywhere either.
"Did she perhaps..." Barbara inquired with a frown, treading lightly over the tile floor.
There was no sign of human presence anywhere, leaving her in total bewilderment.
Lumine did not return that night.

When Fischl woke up in the morning, a sorry sight greeted her.
Hu Tao was kneeling on the floor with her feet placed neatly underneath her butt, right in front of her coffin with a sign that hung around her neck, reading,
[I am a bad dog. I did a terrible thing. Do not feed me. I deserve it. This is my punishment. Goodbye cruel world.]
It was immediately clear to her that Yomite somehow taught her a lesson for some reason...
Looking around the room, he seemed to have disappeared entirely, no trace of him whatsoever.
As she met the glazed puppy gaze of poor Hu Tao, Fischl came up to her to ask what had happened.
"Fishy-Fishy! He beat me up! He beat me up! Can you believe it! My lover beat me up! My butt is in such a pain I'm surprised I didn't pass out! It's on fire! Fire!"
"...You probably did something to deserve it..." Fischl responded, caressing the back of her head affectionately.
Hu Tao cuddled closer to her with desperate chuffs.
"...I-I did, but he still beat me up! Only I am allowed to slap him on the back! He abused my butt to the maximum!" she muttered sadly, crying as tears ran down her cheeks. "My butt is on fire! I swear to Zhongli that I will make the greatest prank ever to get my revenge!"
"...Isn't your prank the reason why you are like this in the first place..." Fischl whispered softly, cutting Hu Tao off mid-sentence.
Hu Tao stopped crying for a moment before glancing up at her nervously.
"...It is."
She didn't even deny it...
Fischl sighed, giving her a hug of reassurance before heading towards her bed. She picked up some sort of a flask and returned back to her.
"Fishy-Fishy, what's that?"
"An ointment, go lie on your bed, I will apply it directly."
"E-Eeeh...but I would have to show you my butt..."
"...We are both girls...why does it even matter..."
Upon hearing those words, Hu Tao nodded and lay down on her bed, before taking off her shorts. Usually she was the one teasing everyone, but for some reason it felt embarrassing to let someone else other than Yomite stare at her butt.
Her backside exposed in front of her best friend's full gaze, no joke seemed funny anymore and her cheeks flushed red with embarrassment.
As if for protection, she squirmed over until Fischl stopped her from moving forward, wrapping an arm under her back.
She felt ashamed having her backside seen like that. Yet as she did so, Fischl spread the ointment all around with no hesitation.
"...T-Thank you Fishy-fishy...I-It's cold..."
As Fischl stared at the red slap marks on her butt, while the deep pink bruises were in the way, she had to admit Hu Tao's buttocks were big and round like a perfect piece of fruit ripe for picking.
(I did hear Yomite say he loved her butt...I have to admit it's pleasant to look at...) Fischl giggled to herself at the thought.
Spreading the ointment over Hu Tao's buttocks for five minutes...both hands working slowly at first, until she had finished covering the entirety of her behind, she changed the frequency of strokes based on her whimpering to rub it in softly. It hurt a lot for some time and Hu Tao squirmed on the bed a lot, but soon enough the treatment was done.
"Ouch...it still hurts, why-"
"...Just lay there and don't move. It will be fine after a couple of hours."
Fischl sighed with exhausted look, hoping to relieve her friend's suffering.
"Umm...thank you for helping me Fishy-fishy...I love you!"
"...You're welcome."
Unable to stay awake any longer due to both physical and emotional exhaustion, Hu Tao gave in and fell asleep as soon as she could.
Fischl just observed her friend from afar, feeling pity once again.
She must have angered Yomite to a boiling point for him to do this.
(I wonder what was happening last night...I completely slept through it...)
She had an inkling that Hu Tao must have attacked him during the night which resulted into this. Hu Tao told her she would do it soon, and she most likely did. Although it did not end up well for her...
"I will ask him about it during our date today. I am sure he will explain it..."
