They were hardly buddies, they weren't going to hang together in the park, were they?" Laura hadn't seemed to grasp that they were mortal enemies from different countries, but that they had to meet sometimes to get things done. "Oh and two - you're forgetting the fact that this was a war and they probably had target and price attached to their heads. Like I said, hardly going to go for a stroll in the park, much less together. Sure they would've attended meetings and so on, but not in public." Bliss paused while she let it sink in, and finished with, "get real."
Smug!Bliss is smug.
"All of them!?" Bliss squealed, bouncing in her seat, all pretense of a calm and collected four year was gone. "Are you serious?" Because joking about food - namely jelly beans - was a sick and twisted and should never, ever be done. EVER. "I'll have a few," she allowed, once again putting on her I'm-better-than-that mask on. Jelly beans, however amazing they were, could not be used to buy her friendship, but nice try. 9 points for effort and effect. 0 for originality. Shame.
"Jelly beans, here I coooooome," the hungry badger said, jumping up from her seat.
Laura looked at Bliss and blushed. "Oh I didn't think about all that." Laura decided that she would stop before Bliss thought that she was a total nutter, she really didn't want her cousin to think of her like that, it made her sad but she knew she had to earn her cousin trust again.
Laura looked at Bliss and smiled. "Yeah you can have the box to yourself." Laura promised, she had like 4 boxes so giving Bliss one box wasn't such a big deal. "I like cola-bottles better anyway, I have a box of them for myself." Laura giggled.
