─"JEAN PLEASE DON'T FIRE ME IT'S ONLY MY FIRST DAY ON THE JOB I PROMISE TO NOT DO IT AGAIN!" you pleaded desperately to the acting grandmaster.
all of the confidence amber had helped you build up outside the door instantly disappeared the second the door to jean's office closed behind you.
the office seemed so much scarier when you weren't going in there to deliver baked goods and remind jean to take breaks and not overwork herself.
jean sat peacefully at her desk piles upon piles of paperwork on top of it slightly obstructing your view to her. she waited calmly for you to stop your consistent rambling already used to it after spending so much time with you.
finally, you had stopped your disjointed apology speech and jean waited a couple more moments to make sure you wouldn't continue before beginning her response.
"(y/n) pleases sit down and have some tea to calm yourself down before we continue i promise i'm not gonna yell at you or fire you or kick you out but we still need to have a conversation but still i'd rather you be calmer and more collected before we continue." jean clarified with an amused smile at your frantic state.
"oh- oh ok that sounds nice jean thank you." you mumbled to yourself in relief.
although jean's desk was full of paperwork there was a side table with freshly brewed tea like she had promised.
you beamedonce you realized she had taken your suggestion of keeping warm tea to keep her mind serene. you felt your smile grow even wider once you had tasted the tea and realized she had made you your favorite tea.
"wow jean this tea's really good who brewed it?" you questioned jean curiously.
"oh of course i brewed it i always brew tea myself when my friends come by." jean smiled at you softly.
the room suddenly filled with your laughter making jean tilt her head slightly in confusion. "what is it (y/n)?".
"i remember when you were absolutely terrible at brewing tea and i had to teach you." you laughed at the memory of you trying jean's first cup of tea and getting violently sick but then promising her you would train her in the art of making tea.
"those were some really fun times." jean sighed nostalgically.
you and jean had a close childhood even though in the middle of it you had to relocate to liyue due to your family's business.
"let's not get too nostalgic though we still need to discuss what happened today." jean put her serious grandmaster persona back on after reminiscing.
now that you had loosened up you weren't as nervous and you let her continue smoothly.
"i am not at all happy with the stunt you pulled today i understand you were worried with us treating you too childishly but we promise to treat you with the utmost respect like any other knight of favonius in training although the knight i sent to watch over with you said you were holding your own pretty well until amber showed up." jean ended with a proud smile.
"i understand jean i promise to treat the knights of favonius with equal trust and respect. " you agreed with her former statement before finishing your tea and placing your empty teacup onto the side table.
"now that you understand you're free to go and um." jean shifted in your chair awkwardly as you started to rise from your chair and walk towards the door.
"before you leave the building could you please go to the library and get me lisa." jean whispered almost incoherently.
"of course jean." you smirked cheekily before gently closing the door behind you.
"now i see how she got so good at making tea so fast." you whisper to yourself.
