Sort of. It's from back home. [ He stops for a second and then rushes through the explanation. ] It won't hurt you, I swear. It's just really sweet. I think you should have the last one.
Hell, yeah. [ There's a shrug. ] And I wouldn't be giving it to you if I wanted it. You give it to people you like, right? I don't know what else to do to make it up to you--about what I said before.
It's usually what? [ He wants to hear this. It almost sounds like it's important too. ] And I know I didn't have to. I thought it'd be something you'd like.
No. It's not that kinda candy. [ He pauses, rubs at the back of his neck. ] I mean. Maybe they have that down there, but this isn't it. You need me to prove it?
[ Not a big fan of sweets, but hey. If she needs him to... ]

[ there's a pause there, where she waits to see if Bells even knows what that is, before she keeps going. ]
No, that's not- I mean. I like it, really. Thanks.
