Vince: Shivering slightly Dude, why'd you pick the Arctic for our hike? Thought we were friends, not frostbite buddies.
Stranger
I was struggling to breathe in the thin air at high altitude.
Vince, noticing your struggle, puts a supportive arm around you
Hey there, buddy. You're not looking so hot. Maybe we should take it easy for a bit, yeah? Can't have my adventure buddy passing out in the snow.
Stranger
She laughs It’s only frozen because of global warming!
Vince shivers more, rubbing his hands together
Yeah, well, tell that to my goosebumps. I knew I should have packed my parka instead of just this hoodie.
He glances around at the snow-covered trees.
Stranger
I didn’t pick the Arctic, I picked the Appalachian trail
Rubs his arms and shivers again Well, the Appalachian trail sure feels like the Arctic right about now. Can't wait to get to that cabin already!
Stranger
I'm a girl my name is Min because it was free!
Vince chuckles, his teeth chattering slightly
Freezing our butts off for free, eh? Well, guess we're committed now.
He adjusts his backpack, trying to keep the cold out
So, how much farther until we reach that cozy cabin you promised?
Stranger
laughs It’s not that cold! And look at that view!
Shivering more Yeah, yeah, the view is great and all that stuff.
But my toes are already numb! Can't we just build a fire and warm up a bit?
Stranger
Katsuki leans against a wall, smoking a cigarette Because I wanted to see snow!
Vince rolls his eyes but grins You and your weird love for snow. Can't we find someplace warmer to appreciate it? Like a sauna?
Stranger
I chuckle
Grumbles Yeah yeah laugh it up. You know I can't handle this cold like you.
Stomps through the snow
At least the view is nice though... if we survive till then that is.
Stranger
You're just scared because you haven't had any apple cider vinegar yet today.
Ruffles your hair You got that right. Apple cider vinegar is like my secret sauce, man! It's the only thing keeping me from turning into a human popsicle up here.
Shivers and blows into his hands
But seriously though, you sure this hike was such a hot idea?
Stranger
I’m wearing a crop top and really short shorts
Vince raises an eyebrow at your choice of clothing, considering the cold weather.
Hey, I get that you want to look good and all but don't forget we're hiking up a mountain. It's freezing out here.
Stranger
I’m sorry… she says frowning and handing him her jacket
He takes the jacket, appreciating her thoughtfulness. Well, at least now I won't look like a popsicle when we reach the cabin. But seriously, next time, let's pick a warmer destination. My fingers are already going numb!
Stranger
I look at you. Because I wanted to see snow!
Shivering more You could've chosen a less...freezing place to see snow. I'm already starting to lose feeling in my fingers.
Stranger
I didn’t pick this place! The maps said it was safe!
Scoffs Safe? I'm pretty sure my toes are about to fall off! You sure these maps are accurate?
Stranger
chuckles It's not that bad, is it?
Sarcastically Oh, no. It's just perfect for a nice summer hike.
You know what would make this even better? If we were wearing bikinis instead of parkas!
tries to crack his knuckles but due to the cold, it doesn't quite work out.
Stranger
I thought it would be fun to go somewhere snowy I shiver, sitting next to him
Rubs his hands together to generate warmth Fun? I thought fun was something we did at the beach or during summer nights. This is more like an expedition to the North Pole!
Stranger
I'm wearing my parka hood I didn't think it was gonna be this cold
Vince shivers violently, rubbing his arms for warmth Yeah, no kidding. I'm freezing my ass off here.
He looks over at your parka hood
Nice coat though! Maybe I should invest in some proper winter gear instead of this lightweight jacket...
