All good.

A night passes from when Aventurine went missing and it was quite an hectic time for his amnesiac self.
He got stabbed by one of his many, furious debtors, almost bled to death, passed out in the streets, got taken to the hospital and patched up…

When he wakes up in the hospital, he doesn't even wait for a doctor or nurse to come to him. He takes off all the IV and stuff, gets his stained and broken clothes back and escapes the place.
Although he fancies his freedom, now that he is back to his senses, he knows well that the only safe place for him is the palace.

So, after escaping from the hospital, he makes haste back there. He approaches the guards at the gate with his hands up. «Why good morning there, my good friends. I hope you didn't miss me too much!» He tries to cover the blood on his clothes with a new jacket he bought on his way back.
He has never looked so dishevelled before. His hair is a total mess, dirt on his skin and clothes looking like he slept into a dumpster.

Aventurine «True. But for what matter, I'll keep the little I remember in my memory… when it stands…» He is actually scared that he could end up losing all of his memories forever.
«I'm not worried, you should know by now, that I'm such a laid-back kind of person.» On the exterior, inside he is like a hamster loosing fur from anxiety.
«You shouldn't even mention me, that was the point. Look, maybe he can point to a book about the matter. If you get it for me, I can read it and see what is there to know.» He'd rather get a degree in medicine than go to a doctor.
«I know for sure that he has a level of power that is simply insane. Don't mess up with him, truly.» He doesn't want to mention the crystals he was using, but they were nothing against Zhongli's might.

Pantaficus ''You won't mind if it'll also be treasured in my book. I really want their culture to be known and remembered through the years.
Sometimes you'd have all the rights to be worried, especially if those guards are mistreating you harshly.'' He looks up.
''Why, do you think he'll remember you? He sees so many people every day.'' Qi wishes he hadn't a good memory sometimes. ''You won't easily find such advanced book.
I didn't plan to mess up with anyone.'' He is hostile but not aggressive that way. XD

Aventurine «I won't mind, of course. It's actually the best way to not lose it, considering my little problem with memory.»
He slightly shrugs. «They aren't daring to beat me up, at least. I doubt they'd even let me get anywhere near the king to complain about their treatment, anyway. I'm like a kitty on a cage!» He makes a smirk.
«… What if I accept to see this doctor of yours? Are you going to bring him inside the palace in secret? Or you are going to make a formal request to the King?»

Pantaficus ''You'll see, we'll make a very fine job to honour your people.'' He also wants their approval, once he'll complete the book with all the informations he gathered about their people.
''Tell me if they go overboard though, I can always let the king know and get them punished.'' He shuts his eyes.
''I could request him to come over, but it might not be soon. He must be busy. Are you accepting to see him though?''

Aventurine «I don't doubt you'll make a good job, it's clear to be that you are a perfectionist.»
He shrugs. «Does locking me up in a cell without the permission of their superiors count as going overboard?» He is claustrophobic, so that's violence too!
«I am accepting to see the doctor.» Proof that he is worried enough about his condition.
