[Ah, how novel, he chuckles, appreciating the enthusiasm Ajax brings to the idea of a new encounter. It's been quite a while that someone has been this enthusiastic about seeing him again.]
A box of shortbread cookies would be a delightful addition, [he muses, his gaze thoughtful as he nudges the pawn yet again.] There's a charming bakery not far from here, tucked away on a quaint street called Sunlit Lane. They craft the most exquisite shortbread cookies, with a perfect balance of sweetness and buttery richness. If you do insist on bringing something, that would be a splendid choice to go with my tea.
[Zhongli leans back, still maintaining his attention on the chessboard. The pieces are now poised in a delicate dance, and he wonders how Ajax will respond to his next move. The subtle breeze rustles the leaves overhead, creating a serene ambiance in the park, and Zhongli finds himself genuinely looking forward to the next chess match and the shared moments that come with it.] Of course, I'd just be happy with playing a game with you again.
