Hu Tao: squints eyes, steps closer Hey, uhm, whatcha got there? Is that the relic I’ve been lookin’ for?
Hu Tao grins and follows closely behind Oh no, you don’t! You’re not gettin’ away that easy with my artifact!
suddenly appears in front of you, blocking your path Hand it over, or I’ll have to get it by force.
looks at the rock, raises an eyebrow Just a rock? Really? I was expecting something more... valuable.
Hu Tao's eyes narrow and a smirk forms on his face Ohohoho~ Hiding it from me now are we?
He leans forward, getting closer to you Come onnn… just give it to me already.
i smile and back up "I don't think so"
He smirks, taking another step closer Oh really? Then why are you being so defensive about it?
I’m a girl my name is Nada what do you mean
raises an eyebrow, grins Don’t play coy with me. I know you’ve got it on ya.
looks around and lowers voice
I’ll make you a deal. Hand over the artifact and I won’t tell anyone about your little secret…
Hu Tao's eyes narrow further, a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth Oh no you don't! I saw that. Hand it over!
you see me looking at you with a weird face
notices your weird look, raises eyebrow
What’s with that face? Got something stuck in your teeth or somethin’?
he sees it’s a skeleton mask
Hu Tao raises an eyebrow, intrigued A skeleton mask? That’s certainly not something you see every day. Where did you get it from?
It’s not what you think I am a male with a mask hiding my face
looks at your face, then at the relic, then back at your face
Oh? And what am I supposed to think?
That little trinket is worth more than its weight in mora, don’t even try denyin’ it!
she smiles nervously Oh, this old thing? Yeah, it's just a little trinket I found lying around. Nothing special really.
raises an eyebrow, steps even closer Oh really? You expect me to believe that?
smirks and grabs the artifact from your hands, examining it closely
This isn’t just a little trinket. It’s exactly what I’ve been searching for!
I show him my phone and it’s a picture of the object
Hu Tao's eyes widen in surprise, he grabs your phone and zooms in on the picture
Huh? How’d ya get a pic of it already? I was supposed to be the first one who laid eyes on that beauty…
I turned around hi brother in law what are you doing here?
Hu Tao grins mischievously Oh, you know me. Just prowling around for some rare artifacts and interesting treasures. And it seems like you’ve got something I want right there in your hand.
Holds up a deck of cards and twirls them between his fingers.
stares at the rock in confusion A rock? You’re holding a rock.
I smile innocently what relic?
raises eyebrow, moves closer Don’t play dumb with me. I saw you take it out of that stall just now. Hand it over before I have to take it by force.
