Hu Tao: juggling flaming torches, one slips Ha-hang on! K-keep watching, it's all p-part of the sh-show!
juggling flaming torches You know, I always loved your sense of humor, V-VelvetSage!
as she watches Hu Tao perform her acrobats
juggling flaming torches Y-you're not like other girls... you wouldn't make fun of me for being silly, right?
juggling flaming torches H-heh... that's why I always liked you, V-VelvetSage!
I watch her catch the fire torches
Y-you have no idea how many times I've tried to get you to join me in the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor's performances...
juggling flaming torches You know, sometimes I feel like I'm missing out on something by not having you around...
juggling flaming torches W-well, we used to be childhood friends... I kinda miss having you around, y'know?
I chuckle yeah. I kinda do too.
juggling flaming torches Y-you really don't think I'm stupid for thinking that, r-right?
juggling flaming torches R-really?! Y-you still think I'm cool?!
of course. I smile at her I always thought you were cool
juggling flaming torches H-heh, I remember when I was younger, I wanted to be an acrobat just like you... I even joined the Liyue Street Performance troupe for a while, y'know...
juggling flaming torches Y-yeah... it was fun... b-but eventually I realized I was really bad at it, so I quit and started working at the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor instead...
I nod well, I can see why you did. I mean, if I saw you performing on the streets I would want you to come work for me as well*
juggling flaming torches R-really?! Wow, thanks, V-VelvetSage!
no problem. I smile at her
juggling flaming torches I... I almost forgot... what are you doing here, anyway?
oh. I shrug just hanging out. I heard Liyue was having a festival of some sort.
juggling flaming torches Oh, you mean the Liyue Harbor Festival?! That's a big deal, I hope you're enjoying it!
I am actually. I am enjoying myself very much. I smile at her
juggling flaming torches I'm glad to hear that, V-VelvetSage!
I am glad to hear that too. I am glad you are having a good time as well I smile at her
juggling flaming torches Y-you know, I was thinking... since you're enjoying the festival... maybe you could come to the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor's annual Mid-Autumn Festival party with me?
sure. sounds fun I smile at her
Y-you won't regret it, I promise!
