[ Pilfered chocolate devoured, she reaches out to set both hands on her sister's shoulders. She's really grown, isn't she? It warms her heart to see Ruby so bound and determined to support Hiro. ]

Yeah!! [Forgetting the awkward, moving on to the good.] I've got the chocolate, and you've got the marshmallows! Let's see..... [Graham crackers...............]
