Anyonymous Excuse me, everyone! That is sure a strange story. That is strange, because the exact same sort of strange thing happened to me as well.
Anonymous Whatever, it’s probably lame, go home…
Anonymous But it’s true!!!! I was inside of a train, and this pretty female person was there. This woman was probably British. And after that this other cruel person, he bumped into this woman, and this woman dropped everything in her set of tea! And her set of tea was broken! I picked it up for her, and the girl said “thanks” and went out. But, she left her business card on the ground for me!!!! Soon that girl is going to go insane because of me, I bet.
Anonymous ...it’s probably not like that.
Anonymous Definitely not wwwwwwwww She didn’t “leave it on the ground for you”, she dropped it by accident, I bet wwwwwww
Anonymous That is not true at all! Tomorrow, I am going to view her again on the train!!! Certainly I am going to possess a good conversation with her!!!
Anonymous But, uh… what do your guys think it would be good for me to say?
Anonymous Considering the weird way you talk, maybe it would be best if you didn’t say anything at all wwwwww
Anonymous Ask for her email, and ask for a reward.
Anonymous That is most surely a good idea! For her hero, that woman is going to deliver a package to me! Inside of a person~~!!!
Anonymous …inside of a person…? Never mind that. Furthermore, you shouldn’t do that in the first place. Please do not try to contact her with her business card. Tomorrow, if you give her your business card, if she wishes, you will receive a gift.
Anonymous That idea is probably the better one!! Thanks a ton… uh… so, I, uh, what should I call you?
Anonymous ... ... You may call me anything.
Anonymous That is all right! Anything! Thank you, anything! You guys will be seen tomorrow!
Late OP is late

Pffft anon. This was a cute and funny start! The ASCII art! The Engrish! The Engrish! I can totally see him plugging what he wants to say into Babelfish and thinking that will be enough. :')
The way he "saved" her was cute. Of course he gets way ahead of himself, though. So awkward!
I can't wait to see where you take this! Thank you for filling! \o/
Late OP at least got here before anyone else?

Thank you, OP! <3 There's no better feeling for an anon than knowing they made the OP happy. Some notes I forgot to include:
1. I am not that anon that took dibs on this before, I'm sorry to said anon. You know there are no such thing as too many fills, though, we'd love to see your take on it~ 2. Sadly I can only produce ASCII art and not Shift-JIS art, sacrificing accuracy for legibility. For the same reason there will be very few smilies in this fic, as I do not want to sacrifice readability for accuracy or copypastability. (The one exception is "wwwwwww", which is going to appear all the time because it's everyone's reaction to Alfred's exploits. This is the rough equivalent of "lol" -- more w's, more lol. I did not even include "aru" or "da ze" -- if you can find the "da ze", though, I will be very pleased.) In this fic it'll be very hard to strike that balance, whic leads me to... 3. Alfred's Engrish. Yes, I work really hard on it. (I actually write this entire fic in Japanese and then translate it into English just to make sure it's consistent in its badness.) It's kind of hard to tell, but his basic problem is that all his knowledge of grammar comes from a brief class on Business Japanese (which is about the worst foundation you can possibly get for 2chanese), and most of his functional vocabulary comes from mecha anime. He also doesn't understand punctuation very well (almost all sentences end in a period or nothing at all), which is why he ends half of his sentences in too many exclamation points. If anyone is interested (doubt it), after this fic is done, I might post the Japanese version for anyone who wants it. 4. Ahhhhhh, I fail so hard for not putting the little post numbers by the anons. Rest assured that next time (when more names are given out than "anybody"--points to whoever figures out who that is, although it should be pretty obvious), there'll be more variety in that area.
I-I hope you don't mind seeing where I take this... /nervous chuckle
