[Being capable of tolerating the Traveler's presence didn't mean he suddenly cared for what he was going through. The moment they got back in Teyvat any meetings could very well result in attempts taking the man down if the mood struck him. While in Nippon however, he's simply not in the mood, not wanting to deal with the consequences that would come from it.

Scaramouche seems insulted that Aether would even dare imply he was attempting to make him feel better. Acting as though he wasn't a feared Harbinger, or that he was capable of anything remotely kind towards another person - that he could be kind towards someone he'd tried to kill.]

You're not fun like this.

[There's nothing further than selfish reasoning, and he's intent on telling it to himself and Aether until they both understand. He's not even good at this, so it wasn't as though he expected it to get very far.]

You're dwelling too much and that's not helping you. Sleeping around isn't going to help you either.

[A finger aggressively prods Aether's chest, the Harbinger glancing back up at him.]

You're the Mighty Traveler, capable of using the elements with barely any effort. Are you really going to let loss and heartbreak take you down? You're better than most, so start acting like it.
