[It's a fair concern to have, given how guarded Diluc can be. Luckily, he isn't so hard-hearted that Aether will have to start earning his trust again from nothing. Lumine has paved that path for him, and while the siblings aren't interchangeable he's certain they have a lot in common.
Trust is a given, as far as Diluc is concerned. What needs to begin anew is their friendship.
Diluc arrives not long after Aether, and is able to identify him immediately despite never having met before. Thoma's description of him helped, certainly, but even without that he would have been able to point him out based on how Lumine has described him. He approaches and takes a seat.]
It's nice to see you, Aether. I apologize that, for me at least, this is our first time meeting.
