*waves hand in the air* Psh, When you win, when you win… Exactly! So go out and do somethin’ /exciting/! And yes. Yes I am. *pouts a little and rolls her eyes up when patted on the head* Instead of a “reporter-who-hasn’t-written-a-thing,” ‘course.
Ahaha… [Sloowly slides his hands into his pockets sheepishly at the sudden remembrance] Sorry about that. Though, you know, I’ve never tried an orange sherbet… [Brow wiggle] Why don’t— Uh, why don’t I treat you to one? To celebrate your legit reporter-ness!
*sighs and covers his face with his hands* Gretel called me a Romeo, too! Just because I was smiling at the girls! I just act the same way I do with everyone. *sighs and then rubs the back of his neck* Well, at least I know I’m not alone! Heh, I keep forgetting about him! Mr. Grumpy pants! *beams* Yeah? Well, I’m sure as hell more driven than she is!
[Leans in, staring into his eyes] Hm. [Leans back just as quickly, lacing his fingers behind his head] Dude. Maybe it’s ‘cause you’re totally oblivious? Just a thought! [Chuckles] Yes, exactly. I haven’t talked to him in a while, though… I should probably drop by and say hi or something— [Realizes he’s speaking more to himself than Hansel and stops himself mid-sentence] Hey, man, I’m not so sure about that. You guys are both pretty psyched about the whole thing!

Pft, suuure. But when I win, y’know what to get me, just saying. [Tries for a grin, which slowly slides to a deadpan stare] …I know that much! I mean, you can’t exactly mope around all day waiting for something to happen… [Widens eyes] Hey, you serious? Aha, now you’re a real reporter! [Gives her an impromptu, thoughtless pat to the head] Congrats!

Yup, sure am! *Nods with a big grin on her face* And lately the competition’s getting fired up! it just keeps getting more and more exciting to work there! *eyes sparkle in excitement*
Good to know you’re still keepin’ at it! [Thumbs up!] I heard from Hansel that you two have this whole rivalry thing going on, too… Though to be honest, I still don’t think either of you exactly outshine the other. [Sheepish grin] You’re both too awesome.
[Startled by the distant call of his name, he spins on his heel flamboyantly and— and— and— GETS SMACKED IN THE FACE BY KEVIN’S PALM]
*raises his eyebrow but then shrugs it off* Yeah, I understand! *rubs the back of his neck* Weeeell… Ever since I got back, all these girls introduced themselves to me! Real cute girls too! Man, was I nervous! I didn’t even know what to say most of the time! Most of them must think I’m a total goof! *sighs* Oh, Gretel and I have got this little rivalry going on too! To be the very best at the bazaar! *grins* Think I’ll win?
[Brings a hand to his mouth in an attempt to stifle a cocky snicker] Hehe, I see someone’s not too suave with the ladies. But don’t worry! [Dramatic pause] Neither am I. Got into a tiff with one— Well, she’s more of a girl, really— A couple of weeks ago! [Shakes head, then stops a moment to think] The very best at the bazaar? Hm, I remember Lloyd being pretty high up there around the time I left… Butcha never know! You guys are both pretty great at it, so it’s kind of a tough one…

Probably, mail delivery takes some… Some… [Blink, blink, facepalm] That’s why you’re asking. How could I forget! [Shakes his head like he’s totally disappointed in himself] But moving on. You know, nothing really… Hm. How ‘bout you?
Heeey, Tina! The race still on? Anyway, uh… This is kinda sudden, but my absolute favorite is cream croquettes! As for least favorite, probably seaweed stew or simmered potatoes. Why d’you ask?
Yup! [Nod nod] Wait, glad to be back? Where’d you go, huh? Huh? [Narrows his eyes for a second before nodding again] Oh, yeah! Not too stressful, though. And if by “all over” you mean walking between two towns, then I guess so!
*chuckles* Yeah! I left for a little while to visit my uncle! Nothing too exciting! *smiles* Well, at least you like it! Hmm, I gotta tell ya something too! It’s real strange!
[Chews his lip in thought] ‘Least you visited him… [Scratches at his cheek] Yeah! I mean, I can’t exactly go waiting tables all my life, y’know? Oh— You do? What is it? I’m all ears!
