Not long after, Dorothy jogged back with a handful of quarters, flaunting them in front of him with a shake.
"Pick any plush you want, and I'll win it for you!"
Everett scanned the lineup seriously before pointing at a strawberry bear plush, "That one."
"Got it!"
Dorothy immediately started feeding quarters into the machine, sliding the joystick around while explaining with focus, "I used to work at an arcade, you know. After closing, we'd play with the leftover quarters. There's a knack to it, you gotta shake it a bit, then—then, ah!"
She let out a yelp.
It was because she had almost won the plush, only to watch it fall back down!
"This machine's definitely rigged! I would've had it otherwise! Let me try again."
Everett nodded, quietly watching from the side.
Before Dorothy could insert another quarter, the sound of a camera shutter caught her attention.
She glanced over to see two girls taking snapshots of Everett.
Him being stealthily photographed wasn't unusual, so Dorothy didn't dwell on it, focusing instead on her next attempt.
But after three unsuccessful tries, she felt a tad embarrassed.
"Mind if I give it a shot?" Everett suggested gently.
"Sure, your turn." Dorothy handed him the box of quarters and took over his milkshake, instructing, "Drop the coin here, then move this stick around to navigate. Easy."
She was secretly hoping to watch him fail.
But, to her surprise...
He won the very plush Dorothy had been aiming for on his first try!
