My god, look at all of that! Of course I do, you beautiful man!

What do they have that's filled with flavored cream? I love chocolate filled with flavored cream.

They got chocolates filled with about anything you could imagine! I don't get it, ruining perfectly good cherries...I'll look around! Any flavor in particular?

Ruining...or improving both the cherry and the chocolate? Though I prefer strawberries in my chocolate. And strawberry cream. And liqueur.

Are you going to be in Violet for the holiday?

_{[Ralph just sticks his tongue out. Chocolate. Eugh!]}

Eyup, got this gig for the rest of the month. And then I think I'm gonna give the gym the ole' college try again. The Pokemon gym. For Pokemon. I already beat the people gym.

You look good in that uniform, you know. It suits you.

I think you've already beaten every people gym you've visited. Or so much as glanced at! I haven't done any of the Pokemon gyms myself, but I imagine you'll have little trouble with Faulkner this time around.

Speaking of people gyms...that terribly loud man who never wiped down the machines when he was done has come back.

_{[That gets a bashful little laugh out of him. He scrubs at the back of his neck and a little color creeps onto his face.]}

Shucks...never thought I'd hear that.

_{[But at the news of Loud Leroy returning, Ralph's smile quickly inverts.]}

Is that right? Well y'know, I'm just a quick warp away...think he needs somebody to serve him a knuckle sa--I mean...justice?

You look just like the sort of fellow who rescues babies from being stuck in trees or whatever those cliches are.

Mmhmm. I'm sure I can take care of him myself, but I wouldn't say no to a bit of imposing backup. He just...never goes quiet. I swear, I can still hear him shouting out numbers... 'TEN, HUWAH! ELEVEN, HUWAH!'

[A small shudder follows the rather animated impersonation.]

_{[Ralph's face is getting a real work out today because he has to pause and rewind what she just said. Babies in trees...???]

[His train of thought is instantly derailed buy Lust doing her impression and bursts out into loud, he-hawing laughter. HE HASN'T SEEN THAT BEFORE.]}

Enthusiastically shouted numbers haunt my dreams, Ralph!

[But she's laughing as well, feeling a touch ridiculous. But she clearly got the point across.]

_{[Ralph doesn't stop laughing until he's attracted the attnetion of the two Machokes and their trainer. They just kind of stare as this guard is on his knees in tears in the back alley behind the Violet Mart.]}

I'm sorry...I'm sorry it just...your face was just...

_{[He wipes away a tear and coughs.]}

Gimmi a minute! Whooh. Okay. Okay, I think I'm all here. Well, Lust, I'm sorry to hear about your math phobia but if you want me to come make some mean faces at 'em, I can come by after my shift.

Don't mock my flawless impersonation of Loud Leroy, those face scrunches and eye twitches were entirely accurate!

[Lust only has to worry about the side eyes from her Pokemon. Or possibly anyone else in Shark House who heard any of that....]

Your mean faces are meaner looking than mine.

_{[Very little escapes Henry but he isn't about to bust into Lust's chambers and demand to know why she's suddenly turned into the Slim Jim man.]

[Meanwhile, Ralph lifts a brow and tilts his head so that he can look down at the tiny Lust in his Poke'Gear screen.]}

Now I don't know about that.

You're much bigger than me, that inherently makes your mean faces more frightening.

Don't sell yourself short, Lust! Size isn't everything. Back home, I know some teeny meanies if you know what I mean.

_{[His jolly disposition sours suddenly.]}

Actually I know one here. How's uh...how's Wrath been doin'? He's been givin' me the cold shoulder.

It's like dogs. The larger they are, the more intimidating they look when they growl. The little ones need to bite.

Oh...I'm sorry, Ralph. Wrath has...some very set viewpoints we haven't been able to shake him of, he may be taking some things personally. He's doing well, though. I took him to the islands last month, he had a lovely time.

Well...if I can get change through my thick skull, I'm sure he can too eventually. Glad to hear he's doing alright...an' don't give 'em any of the chocolate I'm putting aside for you! That's for non-wolfboys only!

_{[RALPH CAN BE PETTY TOO, WRATH.]}

He's a child, these things take time. There's just so much he doesn't understand and doesn't have the context to. I'm still trying to determine the best way to get him some proper schooling.

But I promise I won't give him any.

[She's already getting him his own box, anyway.]

Man...I never even thought about school in this place.

_{[He runs his fingers distractedly through his hair.]}

I never went to school and I turned out fine...

I didn't go to school, either.

But Wrath could do with some form of schooling. There are so many gaps in his common knowledge, gaps a child his age shouldn't have.

As little as he is, I guess he didn't come with as much pre-programming, huh? I'll keep an ear out for anything like that.

Thank you.

I suppose if worst comes to worst, I can just buy some lesson books and school him at home.
