[uh, excuse? she's not 'overreacting' she's reacting exactly the right amount. it's not her fault he doesn't know how to sweet talk a girl, here's a hint: don't call a girl a crocodile and then expect her to kiss you??? not that actual sweet talking would prove any more effective on this girl in particular... but, still!
but hey, he's right about one thing, she's easily distracted- even for a kid. it's not to say the trick itself is particularly brilliant or really anything to boast about, it's sneaky and underhanded and 100% effective. in her defense, she'd probably be a lot less inclined to fall victim to it at all... if it weren't for the mention of a 'knight in shining armor'. not that she's interested in those- or rather, she's only interested in one in particular.
maybe under different circumstances it wouldn't matter, but right now she can't help the way her attention instantly snaps to gape in the direction he's gestured towards.]
