Hello out there. The name's Euge--wait. [ He doesn't know how often Rapunzel tunes into this thing, but he'd better play it safe. If she catches wind of what he's doing, she'll get curious. And if she gets curious, the surprise'll be ruined.

He clears his throat. ] Lance. The name's Lance. 

Now, I'm here today because I've found myself in a bit of a pickle. You see, I need some speakers. I'd buy them myself, of course, but I'm a liiittle short on funds right now. Which is why I was hoping someone out there could help a guy out.

I only need them for a night, and I swear you'll get them back in one piece or my name isn't...whatever it is I said before.

So, how about it? Do we have a deal?

[He can't help but sigh.]

Having faith in hope is not the same as being optimistic.

Also, you are really bad at being convincing.

[princeadjacent]

Well, you got me there. Guess I'm used to people who take the whole hopeful optimism thing to the extreme.

And that would be because I'm not trying to be. Someone's either going to lend me their speakers or they're not.

[despairing_hope]

Why not just go buy one? Or ask people you actually know.

[princeadjacent]

I'm a little on the broke side, and I only know one person here. Normally I'd ask her, but I'm trying to surprise her with nice music from these speaker things, so...honestly, it's a bit of a dilemma.

[despairing_hope]

You could always ask to hold hands with someone.

Or, actually, explain what it is you're doing. In that case, I don't mind helping.
