Hiccups (Text) - COMPLETED!

Pull harder. Duh.

Well, you may as well try.

OH GOD AGH IT'S STUCK IN THERE SO HARD THIS IS SO PAINFUL BLARGH

This doesn't seem to be working HICCUP oh god there you go, it's loose now.

You look at what's in your hand... it's a gnome? What? Is there really a Hiccup Gnome in your throat? You begin ask the gnome if that's what he was doing, but you start hiccuping partway through.

"Those are some bad hiccups ya got there," the gnome says. "No wonder I couldn't sleep at night! Oh, and, uh, sorry 'bout being inside yer throat. It was kind of an accident. Long story, not gonna get into it."

He pauses, then after a few more hiccups, he speaks up again.

"Say, there's a cure I heard about, you might wanna try it..."

You can cure hiccups with a kiss.

Mountain climber's right there. Just sayin'.

"A kiss!" the gnome says. "That could help. I'm too little for it, but maybe that guy can help ya out?"

The mountain climber looks a bit nervous.

"But we only just met! Do I have to?"

"Look, pal, it's just one kiss. Not like you have to marry him."

The mountain climber grumbles. "Well... I guess..."

He leans in and kisses you quickly. You hiccup partway through.

"Didn't work," he says. "Um, sorry."

You can only hiccup in response. He's a good kisser.

> Use your drool to lubricate your arm to allow easier extraction from your mouth.

Disoriented from the kiss, you start drooling over your arm. When the mountain climber asks why, you quickly claim - between your hiccups - that it's to lubricate it so it will come out of your throat more easily if it gets stuck down there again.

"Won't it dry up before that?" he asks.

You stop quickly. This is so embarrassing.

> Suffocate. Ghost can't have hiccups!

You aren't that desperate yet! Besides, you still have this herd of giant demonic cattle to deal with.
