Together Till' Death Do Us Part (Reader X Hu Tao)

(Five): The Windblume festival

"Woah!"

"Aaaah, the good old Mondtsadt, as vibrant and windy as ever!"

"Wait, you've already been here?"

"Twice, although we didn't stay a lot, Yanfei wanted to visit a friend, and I just accompanied her, it's the first time we come here during the Windblume festival."

"Hey, Y/N, can I go search for Eula?"

"Sure, just stay in the city for now, okay?"

"Okay! Thanks!"

Yanfei went searching for her friend.

"Hu Tao, have you got any idea yet on what your windblume will be?"

"Well, since now we're in Mondstadt I guess it should be one of the local specialties, but I still have an ace up my sleeve in case I don't find anything fit for the role."

"Lucky you, I'm still very confused about what it should be, Cecilia flowers are really cute, but dandelions just feel right. What about wolfhooks? Are those even considered flowers?"

"Hehehe~ Why don't we go play some games to clear out minds? I heard there are a lot of activities to do!"

"Like?"

A man approached us

"Hey, I heard you were talking about fun activities to do, right? Why don't you try floral pursuit?"

"What's it about?"

"It's basically a maze where you have to collect as many bloom balloons as possible while avoiding getting caught by the ersatz balloons"

"Sounds good, wanna try, Y/N?"

"Hmmm, yeah, why not?"

Level one, first room.

"Ok, so we just avoid the slime balloon and try to gather the small ones?"

"Yup, seems kinda easy.

Second room

"Okay...? This became a labyrinth."

"You can also activate a thingy that destroys the balloon if you find yourself cornered."

"Neat! Wait, is that balloon going towards me?" Asked Hu Tao

"What? No, I think they have like, routes they have to follow, try doing a sudden turn or something like that. Also, why did we split up?"

"I have no idea, but I'm calm, since I can still hear you. Eek!"

"Hu Tao? What happened?"

"I'm back at the start!"

"Why?"

"Because it WAS following me and I got stuck at a dead end.

"You mean they actually follo-woah!"

Somehow I found myself at the start after numbing into a slime balloon.
