#and so they kinda start characterizing shit that would horrify the average person as 'cute'

OK WAIT THIS IS KINDA FUNNY
We don’t know much about what shit looks like in the Abyss. For all we know, the most fucked up shit is seen as mundane. Maybe even cute! Hence, I propose this interaction between my main squad during the Childe boss fight.  
Childe: Behold, my horrifying and Abyssal FOUL LEGACY TRANSFORMATION
Xiangling: OH GOD OH NO OH THAT’S SO FUCKED UP! I don’t even wanna eat that it’s so nasty!! 
Kaeya, speaking as if talking to a small animal: Aww, you look adorable! Does the little abomination to the Archons want some head scratches? Maybe a few dreams to devour as a snack? Oh I bet you do, you cute little guy! 
Jean, usually cool-headed: KAEYA WHAT THE FUCK
Nigguang: In business, one must expect a wide variety of reactions to horrible circumstances or unfathomable truths. But...all my years of experience didn’t quite prepare me for this.
Kaeya, not even paying attention: C’mon little guy! I wanna see that cute tongue of yours, I’ll even let you have a bite of flesh as a treat! Who’s the sweetest, cutest, most abominable thing in existence? 
Childe: *Is torn between feeling condescended to and wanting to respond with an enthusiatic ‘I am!!’ + get some head-scratches*
