[ If he doesn't want jokes, maybe he shouldn't fill her with so many fluttery feelings?! Don't give her such sweet compliments, for one! She couldn't even sputter out that braiding her hair was a time-saving thing, because who needs her to spend another hour fully drying and getting it back up in a ponytail? But no. He had the audacity to be nice. The most she managed was to thank him, but despite how petulant the gratitude was, he made her light on her feet for the rest of the trip.

[ Her nose twitches after the boop. Rude! How did he learn how to do that? And with that call out, she might go thinking he's a mind reader or something. Double rude! Not that it's a thing to worry about, so she won't entertain the idea.

Gosh, I wonder if this is why my favorite foods have been hard to get lately...

[ Her dietary needs are more important than rabbits! ]
