I haven't done anything different with it and it is not that old." She was grumbling more to herself then to him, though talking aloud.
Her face blushed a bit as she questioned the purple, knowing how dumb it probably sounded. "I like grape flavor. The others are alright, but the grape flavor always last just an extra bit longer." Chewing gum that didn't hold a flavor was just the worst in her eyes. There was more blushing as he said about not discriminating against gum balls. "What can I say I know what I like." A faint chuckle game out nervously as she tried to joke.
Moving to the machine she put her money in and started to turn the handle. Her brown eyes moving to the boy who had just said about school. "I do, I was new last year. I'm going to assume you do? I think I've seen you around." She was sure she had seen him before. "I'm Nat." "I would think if they weren't your coins then it'd be called karma, not luck," but that was just his humble opinion. Zeke shrugged to emphasise his uncertainty. At this point, anything went. Tilting his palm upside down he emptied his hand of her coins, satisfied as they made that soft clinking sound upon landing in his bag. "Sabotage? A feral animal?... been around nifflers recently?" Those were fair guesses he supposed. He was oblivious to the fact that she was more talking to herself than to him, he was busy inserting coins and collecting gumballs. He added them to the stock he'd already purchased, waiting until the carry bag filled. That would be a good sign he'd need to stop.
He hadn't been judging, everyone had their own thing. "Fair enough," he acknowledged in response. Zeke's grinning lips split a little to let out a light chuckle along with hers. "That's a good thing," he commented, regarding the knowing what she liked bit. EVERYONE ought to know what they liked, it made life so much easier.
What was more interesting than building his stash, was that the purple-gum-girl did indeed go to his school - he couldn't be sure, people travelled and the girl was clearly not from here. "Oh cool, liking it so far?" he asked conversationally, which also answered the question of his own attendance at the school. And then there was a name, albeit a short name. "Nat, nice to meet you, I'm Zeke," he introduced himself, instinctively extending a hand to shake.
