Is that lemonade you've got there?

[phoenix_soldier]

Hmm? [Looks over and then smiles.] Oh.. Yes. It's pretty good.

[preciousreload]

Where did you get it?

[phoenix_soldier]

[Turns and points behind her at the satand she got it from.]

You're soooo nice, lady!

[phoenix_soldier]

Thank you.. My name is Maria.

[preciousreload]

I bet...

I bet you're so nice...you'd just give me your lemonade. No questions asked.

Kindness is so rare nowadays.

[phoenix_soldier]

[preciousreload]

I hope you like it!

::Slouches over slightly:: Signy Sigrun.

[phoenix_soldier]

[preciousreload]

[phoenix_soldier]

[Smiles and nods.] Yeah I get it... I guess I'll just call you Sig then if that's what you prefer.

[Extends her hand.] It's nice to meet you.
