[ Ah, Killua gets a sheepish laugh as Riley ruffles his hair. ]
Apparently not. We don't have anything called that where I'm from.
[ Silver eyes follow the boy's gaze from the shake and then over to the shopkeeper curiously. ]
You don't have to—! [ Really, it isn't necessary and Riley would never want to take a sweet treat away from someone but the owner seems pleased. If he just takes a taste, then the young man can have the rest for himself. ]
If you're sure.
[ Riley will take the offered cup and take a taste. Blinking afterward. ]
That is very sweet. Also, it's pretty good. [ But he'll hand it back without a fuss and a small smile. ]
I was never big on sweets. I'm not sure I could through a whole drink of that on my own.
[ Just going to be truthful here. He won't be reaching or asking for the drink again, better to let someone who will appreciate it have the rest.
Silver eyes look back towards the shopkeeper. ]
It seemed like you were having a problem with the seller about it, so I thought I'd help you out. You must have really wanted it if you were willing to share it with a stranger.
[ He turns his attention back to Killua now and smiles softly. ]
[ He still sounds like he thinks the guy is crazy, but since this means he won't have to share more, Killua doesn't push.
He nods in acknowledgement at the name. ]
Killua.
Nah, it wasn't really a problem, per se. But apparently that's the tradition... it's some holiday, and you're supposed to share desserts. Or whatever.
Really, I couldn't have asked for someone more perfect. You don't even want anymore, so it's all for me anyway!
[ Killua grins, shamelessly pointing out his win in all of this. He doesn't seem about to run off or chase away his new companion though, even if he doesn't intend to share the shake. ]

You've got good tastes.

Sheesh.
[ Killua takes back the shake without insisting he have more (though he won't protest if asked, or if Riley reaches for it again).
He goes right back to slurping it himself, apparently unbothered by sharing the cup. ]
First time trying chocolate, and your response is positively underwhelming. What a disappointment!
You should appreciate these things more, y'know.

I'm Riley, by the way.

You one of the newcomers too?
