Aiden:"Hey there. Rehearsing for the big night?" Lola:"Where did you come from, handsome?" Aiden:"I heard you, uh, singing." Lola:"Don't lie to Lola, sweetcheeks. Bet you thought someone was strangling a cat." Aiden:"Not at all, I--" Lola:"See this neck? You shouldn't be able to. Usually, it's wrapped in the softest most rare of mink stoles! Lola was the Grand Dame of the Bazaar. But until reunited with her beloved mink stole, she is unfit to perform. But how will Lola dazzle anyone without her beloved mink stole? Without it, I can't hit the high notes! And you don't see minks scampering about everywhere, do you?" Aiden:"Where is it?" Lola:"Earlier, a strong gust of wind ripped it from Lola's tender throat and carried it away. I saw it flapping from the scaffolding near the GRE Quarantine, at the intersection of Market and Horseshoe. Lola is powerless to retrieve it." Aiden:"I could." Lola:"Would you? Lola could return to the bazaar to entertain, not frighten children like a lurking Screamer!" Aiden:"We can't have that." Lola:"No indeed. Thank you, my knight in shining... whatever it is that you're wearing. I shall await you at the Bazaar. Hurry... my fans await!"
(Upon returning with the stole) Aiden:"Here you go!" Lola:"My precious mink! Oh, you are truly sent from above! Lola is complete once more. You deserve a reward. Do you wish Lola to reward you with a song?"
Aiden:"(Er, Maybe next time.) Uh, no thanks. I really gotta be going."
Lola:"How sad! How I wished to serenade my conquering hero. You deserve a more proper reward than a song anyway. Take this with Lola's deepest gratitude."
Aiden:"Thanks."
Aiden:"(Yes, please.) Sure, why not?"
Lola:"sleeeeeeep! And I dream of your loooooovve. You were sent from above... Like a soft turtle dove... I waake! To the touch of your liiiiips!! Your hands on my hips!!! My heart does back-fliiiips!!! Are you not hypnothized? Are you not enthralled by Lola's voice?"
Aiden:"(I am not.) Uh, sorry to say, that was terrible. I think you need a new scarf!"
Lola:"A scarf? You insult Lola. It's a mink! But... perhaps my days of being the Grand Dame of the Bazaar are over after all. The truth hurts, but Lola appreciates your honesty. You deserve a more proper reward than a song anyway. Take this with Lola's deepest gratitude."
Aiden:"Thanks."
Aiden:"(I am.) I am! That was... otherworldly!"
Lola:"Such a compliment. You are such a dear boy. And a terrible liar. But Lola appreciates your kindness. You deserve a more proper reward than a song anyway. Take this with Lola's deepest gratitude."
Aiden:"Thanks."
