[Sam's broadcasting from a seat at Your Place, a milkshake on the table in front of her.]
Having now completed a couple years of it, I'm now pretty sure everyone under a hundred is improvising this 'real adult' stuff. And as for the rest of you? [She grins a crooked little grin, pointing at the camera with a cherry stem.] I've got some suspicions still.
[The broadcast would end there---and does, briefly---but the network's treated to Hiro hijacking Sam's drone to properly inform other Haveners.]
Hey, so, uh, what Sam means is that it's her birthday and she's just being cryptic. So, y'know. Don't let her forget it.

Kiddo, when's your birthday?
no subject
The question gets a pause, like he actually has to think about it.] April 2nd.
[Another pause, then:] Wait, is it your birthday?

Point. Mostly the 'hey, hey, hey, at least eat those vegetables' and my 'shoes off' moments, and some 'it's okay's.... though, you should know, most of the flak you catch from me is straight Sam. Like 'the groceries come in all in one trip, or not at all'.

The vegetables thing has got to be some sort of brain implant thing that only kicks in when you hit eighteen. Has to be. But the groceries thing is straight-up a matter of pride. None of this weak wimpy "make two trips" stuff.
no subject
I think it kicked in for me when I was first properly exposed to a southern farmers' market. [Musing, she'll wave over the server who's got Hiro's shake.] The produce here tops that, though. And you see, you see, you understand. Who does two trips? No-one in our house, that's who.
no subject
People who do two trips won't survive the winter. [Said solemnly, before he downs the other half of the shake.]
no subject
You are seriously underappreciating the quality of the stuff we have here. So's you know. I got a cousin in Kugluktuk and not-great apples are three bucks a pound there.
Even doing one trip, I'd have some doubts about you.... buuut, you're with me. You'll be okay.

[And he's about to retort to that very rude/besmirching comment, but then ow, brain freeze.] Ow, ow, ow, jeez...

Oh, hey, it worked. [Right back to gulping ice cream, though not without a:] Hey, I'm tough!
