"Okay, like what?" Astrid asked with a little lilt of her shoulders. "Tell me something you're good at or something you like about yourself." She encouraged. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

Remus made a bit of a face, he didn’t like much about himself. To be fair he didn’t know much about himself outside the thug he was built to be, but he did know that wasn’t who he wanted to be anymore. He wasn’t good at much either outside of being violent. So he had to think on it for a second.
“I like that I’m observant.” He decided, thinking more in the context of his job and less in the context of taking hints from pretty girls. |

“Oh? Is that why it took me flat out telling you I was flirting?” Astrid teased with a little grin. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

Remus flushed.
“Well that’s different, obviously.” He said, flustered. “What about you? Same question.” He asked quickly. |

“Mm... I’m a good dancer. I’m also a good cook, I can even make better papanasi than my mom, or at least my dad says. He also says not to tell her that.” Astrid nodded. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

“What’s Papa-Nancy?” Remus asked. |

“Papanasi. It’s like a doughnut dessert from Romania. Both of my parents are from the countryside there.” Astrid explained, slowing a bit as the cane up on a bodega with their open sign still lit up and their door cracked open since the weather was so nice. She craned her neck to look inside for a moment before seeing what she was looking for. “Do you like sweets?” She asked, looking up at Remus. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

“I don’t know, I don’t think I’ve ever tried any?” Remus answered honestly. |

Astrid’s face turned in surprise.
“Never? Like...ever?” She asked. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

“I don’t think so...” Remus reaffirmed, feeling a little embarrassed as though that was the wrong answer. |

Astrid took a beat before letting go of Remus’s arm and gesturing for him to stay put.
“Wait right there.” She said before scurrying inside the store. She went over to the little counter freezer and did a quick inventory before reaching in to grab in two push pops. As soon as she paid for them, she trotted back outside to Remus and held one out to him. “Here.” _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

“What’s this?” He asked with an arched brow, though he accepted it still. |

“It’s a push pop.” Astrid said, reaching out to peel the paper off the top for him. She took his hand and guided it to the stick and gave it a little push to get t started. “It’s not papanasi, but it’s a pretty standard sweet. When we were younger, my older brother would buy us all push pops on our way home from school when it was hot.” _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |

Remus observed it, gave it a sniff even, it smelled sort of like an orange but not quite. He hesitantly gave it a lick before nodding almost immediately with approval. “It’s good.” He declared, almost surprised sounding. |

“I can’t believe you’ve never had it before. Did your parents not buy you candy or anything? No birthday cakes?” Astrid asked, licking at her own pop as she reached to reclaim Remus’s arm. _________________ Butts n' butts n' butts n' butts. |
