Note: To the readers who read this before WELCOME TO THE REAL CHAPTER SIX!!! I did not go for a rewrite like I mentioned before because I re-read my story and found it wholesome and got some new ideas. I don't have an ending in mind but I hope you still enjoy!

The Fellflower was overly cautious around you...which makes sense since he let his guard down and got stabbed-
"Watch your step." Ruby held a hand out to you, and you take it albeit a bit hesitant. You take a look at your surroundings, the blue ice glistens at the light reflecting it's surface. Underneath the layers of snow was a layer of solid ice that without the proper attire, you would slip off.
'Maybe that's why Ruby gave me his hand...' Your face flushes red at the thought. It took some effort but you managed to cross the ice-covered surface. 'Come to think of it, most lakes in dragonspine aren't completely frozen...how's that possible?' You decide to keep that thought and ask Ruby later.
"I should probably buy you new clothes, although I don't have the means of directly going to Mondstat to buy something..." Ruby mutters underneath his breath. "Ah geez, what have I gotten myself into?" He facepalms himself.
Humans are fragile beings yet he willing chose to take care of one even when he doesn't have the proper means to do so. He doesn't need food or shelter after all. And he can't take you with him to Mondstat since people will question Albedo for bringing a person.
For now, his first order of business is to find a safe place to stay. It can't be too near to the base, otherwise adventurers will find you. It can't be too high up because you might die from sheer cold.
Luckily he knew of a valley that is hidden in the middle of the mountain. Or course, there were a few hilichurls but they were no problem for Ruby. After disposing their bodies and stealing supplies, the two of you worked togeher on a makeshift camp.
Ruby looks at the cabin, dissatisfied, 'If only I had more materials...we could make a cabin.'
"Is it warm enough in here?" He asks. You nod, "It's fine...I'm surprised we got lucky enough to make something resembling a camp."
Ruby takes out a few bottles of warming potions, that he stole from the fatui and adventurers, and gives them to you, "Drink these if you feel too cold. I suggest that you try to conserve them." There were two reasons as to why he said that.
One, he has limited supplies and two, he does not know the recipe. If he's lucky enough to come across the Traveler alone, he could ask. The alternative and the most tedious method would be to check every single camp to find a copy of the recipe. He would much rather take the former option, even if it's risky.
And there's the clothes situation...there were bigger fatui members wearing large coats, yeah. He can just knock them out and steal it. They didn't have to worry about food for now since they just raided several hilichurl camps- But it would be bad if you just ate sunsettia all the time.
"Are you okay, Ruby?" You ask, holding one of the warming potions close to your chest. "It's nothing. I just...have a few things to attend to. Don't go anywhere."
You chuckle to yourself, you can't go anywhere in the first place anyway. At least you have Fellflower to keeo you company- huh? Where did they go?
Out of your siht, Fellflower transformed into a copy of Albedo and follwed Ruby. "Looks like someone cares a lot about a human that came from nowhere~"
"You...! When did you follow me!?" Ruby cried out. "Um...since you left camp. You were verrry quiet after setting up camp. You're worried about the human, right? I'm surprised that you care about them!" Fellflower cheekily says.
"Ugh. Just go back to camp and keep them company. Also, I thought you were still healing, why are you transformed right now?" Ruby asks. "Well...I'm perfectly fine right now, I just didn't feel like transforming in front of that human!" "You little..." "And I'll take that as my sign to leave, bye~!" Fellflower turns back into a whopperflower and quickly heads back to camp. Ruby was annoyed but he's finally alone. Now, time to raid a few camps.

Note: I have 100% dragonspine already (it's the first one I 100%) so I know some good areas where people are likely to NOT explore but also, it has been a while since I visited dragonspine so I will double check the map and gladly put a screenshot on where they are supposed to be.
Also I'm gonna edit some of this fanfic so its up to my current standards
