5; [Location: Dexter's room], with 100% more accidental [visual]
Dexter just doesn't pay attention sometimes. He's pretty darn observant when he does, but that's not always the case. That's how a falling picture frame sprained his shoulder last year, how everybody but him saw Kelly Preston's limo drive past the Commons last summer, and how he'd almost washed Roy with his laundry. More than twice.
So his tablet is on and recording and he hasn't noticed. Some kind of upbeat song is playing in the background, the words unintelligible from here, and Dexter is kind of grooving and mouthing along with them as he cleans Roy's tank. Nothing too theatrical. Next to the tank, Roy is hanging out on top of some palm leaves.
Squirt, squirt, squirt, wipe.

"Hey. Nice gecko."
Obviously not Codex.

"Whuh -- oh! Oh. Uhh, thanks?" He glances at the lizard. "Roy. Is his name."
Man, Roy gets all the ladies around here. Where is the love?
no subject
"Nice name. Simple. Most people would go overboard with names but why would a gecko like that need a really fancy name? He makes up for it with his colors." Babble babble awkward babble sorry she startled you guy babble.
no subject
Awkward smile is awkward!
no subject
"Nice." See Codex try some people skills here. "So what's your name?" She can't exactly ask the gecko to tell her like how the guy told her the gecko's name.

"Dexter! It's Dexter. What's your name...? You're - new here, right?"
no subject
Er. Well as if there wasn't enough awkward. Good going Codex, using your gamer name.

"Canada...?" Dexter awkwardly clears his throat. "Uhh, hey, Kaylee. I'm Dexter."
no subject
Canada? Shiny! [pause] 's that a planet?
no subject
"You're joking, right...? Ha ha, let's all laugh at the Canadian? Eh?"
no subject
Why would I go doin' somethin' like that?
[voice]
Did you get that little one here or is he from home?
no subject
"Yeaaah -- he's. From home. Had him since I was... six?" He glances at Roy.
no subject
Well he looks quite good for his age then. [amused!voice Rose is amused X3]
