Hmmmmmmmmm.  If it worked for her . . . . . . .

[Knock knock knock! Palom is at YOUR door! No, it doesn't matter who you are or where you live.  Unless you're Crazy Scarf-Eye-Killy Person.  And Crazy Maya-Hating Person.  And even that woman who killed Crazy Maya-Hating Person.  Asura, Matt Engarde, and Sakuya's houses will be skipped.]

Hiya! My name is Palom, and it's a real pleasure to meet you even if I've already met you before and even if I'm lying out of my teeth. I'm going door-to-door collecting delicious sweets, candies, and pastries to assist the children of the neighborhood in their heroic work to turn into sugar crazed addicts escape this town.

Would you have any such things you wouldn't mind parting with? Anything would be a great help!  Urgh, how does she manage to get that heart hanging over her head?  I'm gonna have to settle with a   Lalalala~ Hearts and flowers ~ La ~

[Do you have the heart to say 'no' to this excruciatingly sort-of adorable boy?]

((With sincere apologies to Hustino.))

Umm. No, but the schoolteacher says I shouldn't eat at strange people's houses or go into white vans driven by old men filled with candy which is why I'm going around collecting it instead.

Smart teachers. [laughs]

Okay. And you said this candy's fer heroic work on the part of the kiddies? How's candy supposed to help ya do heroic work?

Energy, ma'am! Here's a handy chart for you!

[Yet another one. This appears to be one of those fundraiser bars that you see all the time in schools, except instead of percentages, the bar is notched from top to bottom with labels such as "Extreme Hunger, No Motivation"; "Two Candies Consumed, Depression Lifts; "Four Chocolates, World a Happier Place"; "Ten Ice Creams and Three Candies, Eternal Bliss of Spring"; "Maximum Sugar Power, KAMEHAMEHA Escape From Mayfield!"]

As you can see, the sooner we reach the top, the sooner we can all leave this place.

[Vorpal stares at the chart before busting up laughing. It takes a bit for her to actually settle down enough in order to speak and her words are still punctuated by hearty chuckling.]

Kid, you are so full of shit, but dammit, you got a set on ya. Stay here a sec.

[Still laughing, she disappears into the house to raid the kitchen, returning with a bag of hard candies and forking it over.]

Go fight the good fight.

Wow, thanks a lot! I should now inform you that you're also being entered in our sweepstakes for a new telephone for being such a generous donor.

. . . You know, someone said I was full of balogna, but I'm gonna tell them that I'm actually full of shit!

*marches away proudly*

[And she disappears to do just that!~]
