Resident Human: "Happy National Maple Syrup Day, Mudpie!" Mudpie: "Thank you! So excited for mapley syrups!"

Mudpie: "Original. Not reduced sugar. Mudpie doesn't play games."

Mudpie: "Syrup, syrup, syrup! Resident Human: *chuckles* "Alright, let's just stay calm." Mudpie: "Never! Must appreciate the syrups!"

Resident Human: "There you go!" Mudpie: "Uhhhhhhhmmmm..."

Mudpie: "Surely you jest." Resident Human: "What's wrong?"

Mudpie: "It's mapley syrups day! Have to put syrups in every square!"

Mudpie: "Every... square!"

Resident Human: *laughs* "Alright, alright, don't get your roots in a bunch. There. How's that?"

Mudpie: "Excellent. Mudpie thanks you for your cooperation." Resident Human: "You're at least going to share, right?" Mudpie: "In the spirit of giving season, you can have half of one waffle." Resident Human: *chuckles*

Master Marshmallow: "Greetings! What are you up to on this fine morning?" Resident Human: "I'm celebrating Cream Filled Donut Day. I've just purchased some donuts, in fact."

Master Marshmallow: "Ohh, I see. Well, I suppose donuts are a favorite of some. I prefer marshmallows, myself." Resident Human: "I've occasionally heard that said, yes." Master Marshmallow: "I know... I am a bit obvious, aren't I?"

Resident Human: "Let's take a look, shall we? Wow... aren't these some delicious looking donuts?" Master Marshmallow: "I suppose... I don't see what all the hype is about, though, really." Resident Human: "Oh, no?"

Master Marshmallow: "No. And... I don't even think any of these donuts are cream filled. Three of them have holes." Resident Human: "Well, you've got me there. I was just going to buy a cream filled one and the rest just sort of... followed me home."

Master Marshmallow: "Where? Which one is the cream filled one?" Resident Human: "Right here. It's a Boston cream donut." Master Marshmallow: "Oh, it... it has chocolate on it. So do s'mores... and I love s'mores." Resident Human: "Mm-hmm..."

Resident Human: "But you said you really didn't care for donuts, so I'll just-" Master Marshmallow: "Well, now, hang on a minute! Perhaps I was mistaken!"

Master Marshmallow: "I... I could try it." Resident Human: "Oh, you could, hmm?" *chuckles* Master Marshmallow: "Absolutely! You know, I am a very open-minded rootling."

Resident Human: "Mmmm... Look, there's the cream." Master Marshmallow: "Oh... oh my goodness... Please let me have a taste!"

Resident Human: *chuckles* "Well, if you insist." Master Marshmallow: "Thank you so much! I don't know what came over me there for a moment, saying I don't like donuts. Can you imagine? Me? Not liking donuts? Heh heh... heh..." Resident Human: *shakes head* "I'll get another plate."

Resident Human: "You've really been such a good friend lately, Marshmallow. Helping to educate everyone, telling stories, spreading positivity... You're an invaluable member of the Roots & 'Shrooms Gang." Master Marshmallow: "I-... Why, thank you, I... I don't know what to say."

Resident Human: *shakes his arm nub* "Thank you for all you do." Master Marshmallow: "You're quite welcome!"

Resident Human: "As a token of my appreciation, I got you a little something I came across at the supermarket today." Master Marshmallow: "What do we have here? Wait... Is... Is that...?"

Master Marshmallow: "IT IS! IT'S A S'MORES PIE!" Resident Human: "Yep! Perfectly rootling-sized, too."

Master Marshmallow: "It's... the most beautiful thing I've ever laid eyes upon..." Resident Human: "It does look tasty, doesn't it?"

Resident Human: "Let's cut it open... Oh yeah, see that?

Resident Human: "That's all marshmallow cream filling inside." Master Marshmallow: "Oh... Oh my goodness... Ohhh..."

Master Marshmallow: *falls over* Resident Human: "Marshmallow? Are you alright? Did you faint?"

Resident Human: *lifts his leaf* "You okay there, buddy?" Master Marshmallow: "Y-yes, I... I just... The excitement overwhelmed me. I'll be alright. You know... what would really help me is a sample of this pie..." Resident Human: *chuckles* "Dig in, my friend. You've earned it."

Resident Human: "Well, how 'bout it, Mudpie? How many stomach aches have you had in your life?" Mudpie: "All of them. All necessary stomach aches were had by Mudpie."

Resident Human: "Um... no stomach aches are ever necessary..." Mudpie: "Necessary if Mudpie wants to maintain proper snacking levels."

Resident Human: *chuckles* "Oh my gosh..." Mudpie: "I know, right? Mudpie's logic is astounding."

Resident Human: "That's not exactly how I would put it, but- Hey! Now what are you doing?" Mudpie: "All this talk has made Mudpie hungry. Please to be opening pretzels now."

Resident Human: "You shouldn't be having pretzels right now, Mudpie, you just had breakfast." Mudpie: "Okay. No problem. Doritos will work too."

Resident Human: "That's not what I meant!" Mudpie: "Allow Mudpie to clarify situation for you. One of these snacks is happening right now. Please make decision and open. Mudpie thanks you for your cooperation." Resident Human: *facepalms and laughs*
