WHO: (

WHAT: Sumeru crew have a little huddle.
WHERE: Some little cafe with outdoor tables.
WHEN: Early July
WARNINGS: N/A
[It's been a couple days for them all to try and orient themselves in this situation. And, given it's already a strange situation, it might as well just get stranger when Alhaitham is the one who makes a decision that they need a gathering between the four of them that already know each other and have the same place to get back to.
In the morning, he scouts nearby blocks until he finds a small cafe, empty as every other place is but with small tables outside which are a suitable meeting space. Also, maybe he can take some coffee bags to go.
Then, he sends a message to Tighnari and Cyno:]
You're not busy this afternoon, right? [Trick question none of them are busy.] Come meet with Kaveh and I around 1 pm. We should establish a routine with each other and share what information we've found.
[And he'll send along the location, and a photo of the cafe front. Just in case.
Kaveh gets less warning, because Alhaitham decides to just tell him in person when he catches him: they're meeting with Cyno and Tighnari (did he know they were here? Well, anyway,). They'll walk there together. Alhaitham brings one of those blank books and a pen, because he's sure he'll want notes.
And slides into one of the cafe seats, just a bit before the designated hour.]

apologies! been busy/depressed/traveling
There is a chance of that. If the gods could not prevent this from happening, then it stands to reason that whatever has done this supersedes them. Again, it is only speculation. Unless we know more about the nature of the entities or phenomenon that brought us here, it's impossible to say for certain.
[ Because they don't even have answers to that. Nothing has come forward to establish or introduce themselves. While there is a little evidence of this place being a host to people prior to all of them... There are no signs as to who or what those people had been.
His ear twitches at the familiar complaints start to form. ]
And just what would Alhaitham do to warrant that? Here, you're on relatively equal footing, yes?
No worries!
It could be the difference between what's innate and external. [As ones Vision abilities are inexorably linked to the Vision itself, if reports from the recently opened Inazuma are anything to go by.
No comment on Kaveh's toothless threat of murder. He hasn't even caused any trouble (yet).]
