[indent][indent][indent]The baseball bat had been tucked underneath Sloane's arm when he'd played "The Floor is Lava" over the food court. He hadn't meant to carry it with him away from the booth, but he also feared leaving it within David's reach. Also, what did it hurt? It was on-brand for him. Ex-Captain of the Angel Grove Baseball team, and winner of so many awards that he honestly blurred them together into some amalgamation of grandeur.

Sloane smiled as Vallory corrected him. [b][color=#dc143c]"Ah, that's it."[/color][/b] Though it was hard to know which [i]it[/i] he was agreeing needed correction. He pulled the bat out from under his arm and twirled it before setting it on his shoulder. [b][color=#dc143c]"Afraid I'm not a clown. No luck with balloon animals and all that. But..."[/color][/b] He let the sentence trail off as gave a very over-pronounced bow. [b][color=#dc143c]"I was in the local theater's production of the musical [i]CATS.[/i] So, I think that may be a fair exchange. I'll even sing my musical number if people need a good laugh. Not that I think that would help."[/color][/b] He straightened up, moving off the table and onto the ground like people in a normal conversation did. [b][color=#dc143c]"It might make things worse."[/color][/b]

It was then he turned his attention to [s]Randy[/s], dammit, Ross. It was a battle of social posturing, and it was apparent that Ross had decided to bring his A-Game. Well, Sloane wasn't about to back down. Especially, as Ross tasked him with a duty that'd seem outright rude to turn down. 

[b][color=#dc143c]"Of course!"[/color][/b] Sloane propped the bat against the table and fished out his phone. [b][color=#dc143c]"And that's so sweet of you to want to put Vallory Vance and your own interest above my personal gain. I would never take advantage of that. Promote away! The fraternity had tons of members, and they'll be more than happy to share. Also, don't know if you know this..."[/color][/b] He leaned into the two of them. [b][color=#dc143c]"My dad is sort of a big deal around here. The McCabe Building on the university's campus is named after us. So, anything tied to me and our family will definitely blow up."[/color][/b] Sloane then turned directly towards Ross. [b][color=#dc143c]"And you're so cute for caring so much about the community. So, get in here with me and Starshine."[/color][/b] He smirked. [b][color=#dc143c]"And [i]I'll[/i] hold the camera up for the selfie, since we do need height."[/color][/b] Sloane winked.[/indent][/indent][/indent]
