I probably sound like I’m bragging, but it’s the truth and I’m proud of it! Well, I’ve got a record, see. I can dismantle a car and put it back together again in such a short span of time! It’s something I’ve been practicing for quite a while now. Something I do enjoy, too. A hobby that I’m quite lucky to have. Mind if I ask you if there’s anythin’ you enjoy doing? There’s gotta be something you’re brilliant at.

[He chuckled and took a few steps forward, trailing slightly behind her]
Of course, of course. Lead the way, miss!
Hahha, yes sir, you do sound like you’re bragging! So, what’s the fastest record you made for a whole car? Can you do it in 15 minutes? That would be amazing! Well, you do seem to love it very much, did you grow up with cars?
And so she began to walk. Constantly turning her head to make sure he didn’t disappear, that weird person.
..Something I enjoy doing, huh? I can’t think of much now, but I guess I do enjoy reading. That doesn’t require much skill, though!

[A smirk dawned on his lips, mouth twitching, as he continued steadily behind her. Ah, should he tell her? Would this be considered bragging? Oh, well, he deserved it, didn’t he? Sort of, somehow. Hey, it wouldn’t hurt to tell her]

My latest record is tryin’ for under a minute, actually. And while I didn’t grow up around a lot of vehicles, I did enjoy takin’ things apart at a young age. I guess becoming a mechanic was just natural. Maybe I even had it in my blood! ‘Cause inside we’ve all got that same tang of iron, anyway.
And I’m not much of a reader. I don’t believe it takes skill, but it certainly takes patience. Such a heavenly virtue, of course. Fit for someone quite like yourself.
Oh, that’s–
Cue the abrupt turn and look of disbelief/excitement.

WOAH! A minute?! For a whole car?! That’s amazing! How’s that even humanly possible? Wowzers, sir, that’s unbelievable! Well, I believe you, but wow. Wow! I’ve never heard of such a feat before.
A-ahh. Well. I find books very enjoyable, myself. So I get lost in them pretty easily, just as well. Kind of like.. Escaping from the busy city life once in a while, you know?
