"So then I told them: 'Oh, that's a nice opinion you've got, unfortunately, I didn't ask!' Hahahah!" he said as he planted one foot firmly on the ground, using it to push and swing himself forward.

"I would've punched them in the face!"

"Hm... Respectable choice, though a bit too violent for my style"

She chuckled under her breath, "Of which you've got none of..."

"Oh come on..." he sighed, a bit frustrated, interrupting his swing and look at her, "Do you really mean that?"

"Mean what, exactly?"

"You know, the whole style thing" He replied, "I mean, I work hard to be this stylish! I've got these cool shades, I can skate..."

"You want me to be honest?" She interrupted her swing to look at him as well, "You try too much, in my opinion"

"I don't care if I seem like a try-hard! Do I've really got ZERO style...?" He asked again, looking a bit worried.

"If I say yes will it help you sleep at night?"

"Absolutely!"

She sighed, a bit irritated, though she didn't actually want to see him bummed out, "Okay, I'll admit: Nine, you're pretty stylish, even if your skating skills are a bit mediocre" Six said, putting up a small smirk.

"Hey! They're decent, okay?! ...But thank y-"

His words were interrupted when Six lightly shoved Nine to call his attention, her expression was one of shock as she looked behind him.

"Uh" Nine looked at Six, a bit confused, "...What?"

"L- Look!" Six said, pointing behind him. Nine turned around, gasping as soon as he spotted what she was pointing to.

"D- Dude!" Nine smiled after the shock passed, hopping off the swing set to greet them, "Bottle girl! No way! I haven't seen you in so long!"

"Hi Nine!" Bottle shouted from the distance as she waved her hand to greet them both. She began to sprint towards them.

"Wow" Six said as she stepped off her swing to look at Bottle as well, "Must've been like... a decade?"

"Almost!" Bottle replied as she reached them, "Nine years, the day I decided to join BFDIA is the day I lost my freedom!"

"That sounds horrible!" Nine said with a shocked gesture.

"Eh" Bottle shrugged, "You get used to being trapped in boxes after a while"

"You look... different" Six noted, crossing her arms.

"Oh yeah, the area below my eye got a bit cracked-"

"No, I don't mean that, I mean... you look... prettier?" Six internally cringed at her choice of words, "Like, your body looks prettier... that does NOT help-"

"Oh I know what you mean!" Bottle said, "Yeah, me and the other people in the locker of losers were hit some kind of laser years ago... and now I look like this!" she smiled as she looked at herself, "Much better if you ask me, teehee!"

"Oh, the Enhancement-L-Yoy-Ser!" Nine figured out, seeming to know what Bottle was talking about, "That thing is awesome, it made this place so much cooler!"

"We looked quite horrifying before we got hit by that, if I'm honest..." Six added.

"Uh, anyways, Six? Nine?" Bottle called their attention, "Let's cut to the chase, have you guys by any chance seen Four or X... like, at all, around here?"
