Until, Ayaka told him don't, she told him that she'll let him meet the Raiden Shogun but on one condition she told. She told him to fulfil 3 small wishes for her, so Aether accepts it.

After doing the 3 small wishes, Aether comes back to the Kamisato Estate to tell her that he finished it. When coming inside, there was no voice, until Ayaka comes out behind the screen. Meeting him, face-to-face. Ayaka told him that she was delighted to meet him face-to-face. Ayaka states that she now considers Aether as a friend after fulfilling the 3 small wishes for her.

Aether accepts her as a friend now, Ayaka thanks him for it.

Ayaka ask her if he actually will, Aether told her she must keep the promise that she gave to him. Ayaka nods to his response.

In Act 2 of Inazuma's Chapter, Aether went to the Komore Teahouse to just find out that Thoma wasn't there. Ayaka suddenly came in, Ayaka asks him if he saw Thoma, in which, he didn't.

Ayaka had to go and save him but since she was the Shirasagi Himegimi, Aether tells her that he will be the one instead, to save Thoma.

Fanon
Ayather is a small ship within the Genshin Impact fandom, it's often overshadowed by the two most popular ships, being Thomaya and Xiaother, as well as its counterpart ship AyaLumi. It currently only has 13 works on AO3.

There were lots of implications that Ayaka had a crush on the Traveler due to her Story Quest and her special dish description, which was the reason why Ayather sailed.
