"Eh we try," Mush said with a nonchalant shrug. He smiled as he picked up the turkey sandwich. "If you need any help I'd be happy to lend ya a hand, he promised her. "I'm around Manhattan, a lot, sure ya can find me if ya look hard enough," he said nodding to her. "Hope I getta see ya a lot... you're a nice goil."

Moira smiled and blushed. "Uh..I...thanks." She finally found the right word. "Sorry. I get flustered sometimes." She finished her sandwich quickly--she hadn't realized how hungry she was.
"And thanks for the help...I think I'm doin' okay so far...not big on the 'lyin' or 'stretchin the truth' part...but I'm gettin better."

Mush nodded. "Yeah, it takes some time," he said. "But b'fore ya know it headlines jump inta ya head taht are just too good not to yell," he said laughing a little. "Hey... uhhh... lemme buy ya lunch, okay? Consider it a welcome to da Newsies gift," he said with a shrug.

Moira sighed. "You sure? I really feel bad..like I'm takin' advantage!" She watched him carefully, smiling a bit. "I can at least pay my part..."

"Oh, no, it's alright, really, come on, I insist. Tell ya what, I'll letcha buy Lunch for me some other time, okay? Then we'll be square," he smiled at her. He figured it was the least she could do. He sort of invited, her, so he should be the one to pay.

Moira blushed a bit. "Okay." She put out her hand. "Shake on it...I'm not going to have you deny it later!" She laughed softly. So far, another good day. She couldn't complain. Hattan had good kids.

That's when Alanna finally found Moira. She'd been looking for a couple hours, she smiled a bit and walked up, looking around her friend at the boy she'd been shaking hands with. Her eyebrows went up a bit.
"Mon Deiu, bebe," Alanna whispered looking up at Mush then at Moira. "I've been looking for you for hours now." She smiled at Mush a bit, her eyes sparkled. "Hello."

"Deal," Mush said shaking Moira's hand. No backin' out now.
"Oh, Hello," Mush said with a smile to Criol. "You must be Moira's friend she told me about," he said. "My names Mush Meyers, pleased to meet ya," he said. "Do ya wanna sit down?" he asked offering her his chair since there were only two. He could go and get another one easily.

Moira blushed a bit and rolled her eyes. Great. Lanna was going to try and make her feel uncomfortable for fun. And it also meant that she was going to lose attention--but she didn't mind. Giving her friend a hug, she smiled.
"Mush, this is Lanna...and Lanna...do come sit with us!" She smiled brightly.

Since the invitation seemed the be genuine Alanna smiled, hugging Moira back.
"Thank you, hope I'm not.. err.. interupting something?" her accent was fluid, that smooth southern drawl mized with creole french. She looked at the chair Mush offered then smiled at him, "Nice to meet you, chere." She bit her lip and took the chair he offered, hoping she wasn't putting him out at all. She wasn't fond of dping things like that. Quick as a humming bird her mind shifted gears as she grinned at Moira. She'd give her a hard time later, and she still wanted to meet this Blink character.

"Not at all, not at all," Mush said as he picked up a chair from another table and brought it to the table. "And it's very nice to meet you as well. Would you like anything to eat?" he offered. Since she'd come a little late, perhaps she was hungry too? He figured it was worth offering.

Alanna held up her hands and shook her head with a soft laugh, "Oh no, thank you, chere. I kind of stopped at a fruit cart an hour ago." It wasn't really that, Lanna was flat broke, again. And she didnt' feel like smiling pretty for anyone just to sell a newspaper. Not today.
Made her feel lower then dirt when she did anyway. She gave Moira a smile, knowing that, Moira knew where Lanna's head was at. Not knowing Mush all that well, but enjoying the company she just laughed. "So.. you know this Blink person, Moira's gone on about?"
And that was going to earn her a kick.

Moira just turned bright red and gave Lanna a look that meant 'you are so paying for that later'. She smiled oftly. "Sure Lanna? Come on...I know you wanted to meet a handsome boy...and here he is.." She gestured to Mush. "...I'll get ya a soda at least, Lanna..."

Mush laughed but accepted the compliment gracefully. "Yeah... yeah, I know Blink, he's a real good friend of mine," he said nodding to the two girls with a smile. "And ya won't find a nicer guy this side of the Harlem River," he said nodding definatly. Mush still figured he could buy Alanna something, but he'd see what she said to Moira first before he went offering to buy her food for the rest of her life.

Alanna went a few shades of red at Moira's words, then wrinkled her nose a bit and laughed, "That he is, bebe." Shameless, she knew but she wasn't one to lie. Hearing what he said about Blink she just prayed that he wasn't being biased. Alanna was a real steal magnolia if she had the mind to be.
She gave Moira a grin and sighed a bit, "I'd have to pay you back when I could, bebe. Only seems right." Alanna knew it was a kindness, but she also knew her friend didn't have much money either.
Her stomach growled and she giggled. ".. I guess my stomach wasn't satisfied with that apple.."
