Buenos días, bella! Can I interest you in a pretty necklace or perhaps a brooch that matches your eyes?

[Ahh, a lady. Finally, something to rest my eyes on that's truly valuable. Not to mention she looks wealthy, which doesn't hurt, haha!]

[She turns, surprised, and looks at him carefully.]

I- No, I don't...I don't believe I'm interested in that sort of thing, sir.

[SUSPICION.]

...who are you?

My name is Miguel, at your service! [I bow, grinning. She'll change her mind if I can charm her just enough!]

What is your name, bella?

...Evelyn.

[She eyes him warily.]

Oh, I peddle all kinds of things! Why, is there something else you're interested in?

...nothing in particular, sir, but you seem to have a very high opinion of your wares.

[EYENARROW.]

This isn't some kind of flimflam, is it?

Flimflam!

[I mock outrage. How dare she, who does she think she's speaking to, etc. etc.]

Perish the thought! I'd sooner die, bella!

...and there's that word. Bella. What does it mean?

[She's a wee bit suspicious.]

Beautiful, of course!

[I would never call her something offensive! She's a bella flor for all to see!]

Do I look like the lying sort to you?

[I grin at her, the charm turned up all the way.]

I'm afraid you'll just have to accept it. You are muy muy bella.

...you look a bit untrustworthy, yes.

[Shady. Veeeeeeeery shady.]

Albeit charismatic.

[She eyes the jewelry skeptically, then smiles.]

Do you make a habit of selling knock-offs, Mister...?
