Darn right they were cool! Melissa puffed up a little at the compliment, it was nice to see someone being [i]correct.[/i] Even if he had to be corrected. They weren't cute! cute was like, a cuddly li'l Beldum or something, not them. Absolutely cool. Toshi seemed kinda flustered, though? She nodded as he spoke, the baddest motherwowza, swearing! Tsk, not the image you're going for, lad. But oh! ohhhhh. Melissa's head tilted (Lonitt tilted with), as he spoke. One heck of a competitive fella, huh? Was that a him-thing or a guy-thing? Melissa didn't quite get it, but then he asked for advice from her drop of wisdom.

She had [i]wisdom?[/i] Maybe just a drop of it, inherited anyway. She giggled at the blatantly wrong praise (Seriously, her, a genius?...her grades were good, but not [i]that[/i] good! though maybe that's the lack of studying...) and smiled, clasping her hands behind her back and leaning forward and back, still unable to stand [i]still[/i] even if her life depended on it, really. "Welllll, I dunno if [i]I[/i] have any wisdom, but Mom always said, about Dad mainly, that if you try, like, to be [i]great[/i], that's how you don't be great at all. Better to just like what you do and you'll get there." She said it with a bright smile, not caring about airing what some may have been wary of. Yeah her parents didn't like eachother, so what?

Still, her attention was [i]wandering[/i] already, and as much as this guy was nice...[i]oooo[/i] something [i]else[/i] to look at! Her eyes wandered, and soon her bouncing was turning into movement, off to investigate people, Pokemon, [i]that's a fridge[/i], what's on top of it?! She did pause long enough to turn and grin and wave and "Thanks for the compliments! Hope your new partner is as beautiful as you!" Shameless and playful and yup, over to the fridge, bounce-bounce, [i]fuggit[/i], up and [i]climb to[/i] peek on top, before something [i]else[/i] caught her attention.

So many [i]things![/i]
