"COUGH SPUTTER COUGH"
Y/N: "h-hey... cough before I die..."
???: "You're not going to die."
Y/N: "It certainly -sputter- certainly feels like I'm about to..."
???: "Well you're not going to die. So calm down."
Y/N: "I just fell down most of that mountain and -cough cough- got swallowed up by an avalanche... I'd be dead if it wasn't for you pulling me out..."
???: "And now you're fine. Be quiet, or they are going to hear us."
. . . How did I end up in this situation? . . .
*FLASHBACK*
Hu Tao: "Hmmm... I'm not so sure about this one... What do you think sweetie?"
Y/N: "Are you kidding? You look so cute! It suits you so well!"
Hu Tao: "Tee-hee? Really, you think so? It doesn't make me look too... poofy, does it?"
Y/N: "Of course not! You look so warm and comfy. I can't wait for the colder weather to come around so we can snuggle together indoors for heat!"
Hu Tao: "Me neither... that sounds really nice! Hey, sweetie? c-Could we maybe just... get some practise in now? We can pay for these and then head right back to my Parlour for cuddle time...?"
Y/N: "Cuddles with my Walnut? I couldn't think of anything better!"
Hu Tao: "Tee-hee! Well let's head back to my place, shall we sweetie? I've got to get as much of you as I can before you head up onto that mountain. After all... not everybody comes back down without becoming a client of mine! ♪ "
Y/N: "Hu Tao... it doesn't matter how sweetly you say it, joking in a singsong way about my death on that mountain isn't going to make me any less nervous about actually getting in to trouble up there, you realise that... right?"
Hu Tao: "I... well-... sigh I guess not... I didn't mean anything by it though! I just wanted you to laugh a little bit, you've been so worried these past couple days- I don't think I've heard even a little chuckle leave your lips since Ganyu told you that the two of you were going up to Dragonspine. It's not that scary, I promise!"
Y/N: "... It's just so different to everything else I've done so far, and I could barely walk across that sandbar without having a mental break... I can't help but worry that... I might end up doing something stupid up there..."
