[Uh oh, here comes the moment of truth. Ralph looks down as he answers her question. He sounds dejected, there's no point in lying about it, they'd find out as soon as they saw him.]

They're enormous. [He sighs and glances at his free hand, slowly clenching it into a fist.] I've got giant wrecking hands.

[yesadministrator]

[She sounds quite happy, suddenly perking up.] Great!

How are you with guns? And sandwiches, for that matter.

[wreckingduty]

[Ralph almost drops the phone in pure shock when she sounds happy about the size of his hands.] R-really?!

Uh, no experience with guns, but I do like sandwiches! [Hey, two out of three things wasn't bad at all, was it? Especially if having giant hands was a plus, he had that down pat.]

[yesadministrator]

[Oh. Sandwiches would have been okay to not like- there's still the chocolate- but guns...]

Ah. See, guns are quite a big part of Team Fortress 2... We could train you, but, well, you won't be able to respawn if something goes wrong.

[They don't have their own machines- well, okay, technically they do, but she can't promise Ralph won't be crippled for the rest of his life.]

You are aware that you can't respawn outside of your game?

[wreckingduty]

[Ralph responds in an odd tone, a mix of determination and despair.]

I know.

That's the thing, I'm only interested in being in the game long enough to get a medal. I'll do whatever you ask until I obtain one.

So, does your game have any medals in it? If you do, are they shiny?

[yesadministrator]

[Oh, so that's his game? Still, if his hands are as big as he says they are, he could be a brilliant build for a new Heavy...]

Not really. We do, but they aren't achievable through regular means. They're just code from other platforms.

[Medals for special players, or for mini-games not implanted in the arcade version.]

We mostly deal in hats.

[wreckingduty]

[Ralph sounds disappointed in this information.] ...Is there any way at all I could get at one of those medals? I don't care what I have to do, just as long as I end up with a medal, that's all that's important to me.

Sorry, I've got no interest in hats. Not unless you've got a big, shiny one that says "Hero" on it or something similar.
