Say.
[Generally when Fuji starts off with a phrase like that, coupled with that particular glint in his eyes, those who know him well enough give him a wide berth and try not to maintain eye-contact for too long.

Funny. I've heard that it was more partial to the waltz, myself.

Maybe a quick waltz. I've heard the bastard's fast.

That's some grapevine. What else have you heard? Besides that it dances and that it's the illegitimate child of an aspen.

I wouldn't know. I'm not a tree. [Amusement goes here.] Of course, you could always ask it yourself. I heard that for a tree that doesn't like water, it's really quite stationary.

Gotta find out what's up with Surf.

Oh, I don't know. Sometimes, taking the scenic route can be rewarding.
[Still, a chuckle at that.] I'll leave that up to you. I can't imagine that nobody's found out anything about it all this time.
