                PEACH WAS SLIGHTLY disappointed for a moment, she had been so excited to meet the heroes she had heard so much about but at the same time she was not upset. Of course they must be busy ! Meeting someone who had won a contest was the least of their worries and she understood that. Introductions were made and disappointment faded to be replaced with STARS in her eyes. She had a special place in her heart for heroes, for those that helped and protected others - she couldn’t help but be starstruck.

               ❛ TRULY ? OH ! IT is such a pleasure to meet you ! You’re amazing !       Oh, I hope you don’t mind me saying. ❜

       THEY DO NOT GO UNNOTICED,  way her facial features lit up  ——  peerless was the euphoria of citizens he swore to protect, COUNTLESS smiles always infectious   (   ah,  either corner of his own lips curved at her kind words.   ),   path of a hero no longer seen as one for monetary value, per his own ideals, no longer seen as a road to FAME.   no, the satisfaction of keeping the peace  &&  helping those who needed a hero’s hand is unmatched.   being a hero is not just a job, it’s nothing less of an honor.   equal an honor to meeting the winner.

              ❛   no,  no,  it’s  fine!   really,  it’s  sweet  of  you,  thanks!   ❜     no better way to back up reassuring words than through toothy grin  &&  signature thumbs up.   sound emits from throat ;  turning out to be yet another one of many confident snickers.   embarrassing.     ❛   oh,  right!   ❜     hand idly returns to his own side, opposite traveling north to grab hat, tipping it ever so slightly, tied with a cant of the head.     ❛   hope  you  don’t  mind  if  i  for  your  name,  miss …     ❜     like that, he signals her turn to respond.
