Teach my character something

Also: Please tell me WHY you followed?

"Eheh… well, I’d be lying if I said I was tall, so I guess I feel ya there." He laughed sheepishly. "Guess this ride lasts for a while, eh? It’s not as bad as I thought it’d be…"

"I-I don't understand how anyone could not like this ride.. But I-I guess you kinda do have a reason.." She added hoping she didn't offend him.

"Huh… it must suck to be afraid of heights." He glanced out the side of the carriage at the people steadily getting smaller below. "It is a pretty good view though. And we’re not even that far off the ground yet."

"It makes m-me feel so tall, which is interesting because I'm k-kinda short.." She said watching the ground slowly get further away. "E-Everyone looks so tiny now.."

"Well, you can see pretty far… just kinda takes a while to get up there, huh."

"I-I guess, but I t-think it's nice.  I k-kinda feel bad f-for the people who are afraid of heights.."

"Ah, I suppose they’re at least big enough for two people. I bet there’s a great view from the top; hope you’re not scared of heights!"

"I heard t-that you could see t-the whole city from the top, I d-doubt that's true though... Anyway, the c-carriages are pretty closed in I-I think I'll be fine."

"I always used to like this place too… I guess there is a pretty good view from the top. I didn’t have any siblings to fight for it though, heh." He hopped onto the carriage after she did, closing the door behind them before sitting on one of the seats at the side. "I could swear these carriages were a lot bigger the last time I was here… guess that shows how long it’s been, huh."

"You're lucky you d-don't have siblings, mine g-get annoying..." She told them with a small giggle. "I-I don't know, I t-think these carriages are s-still pretty big.."

Bonus points if you have a reasoning behind the costume you pick!
