Pie. Roxy stuck out her tongue at that, no wonder she couldn't place the name immediately when he had suggested it; it had sounded familiar but not being a consumer of the pastry it hadn't occurred to her. Obviously her brain went to fabric. "Nevermind about Lemon Chiffon then," she agreed. "Pie is disgusting." Frilly dress she could do, pie was a no.
And while Sunshine was particularly common and obvious, the blonde delightfully agreed to it, "alright," she chuckled with a slight blush, "a little sun couldn't hurt."
"But well, your name is something, isn't it." She half teased, now sticking her tongue out playfully. "First it was Fritz and now Frederick? Hmmm," There was another chuckle, "but calling you Fred would really be boring, so I wouldn't mind sticking with Fritz."

Fritz eyed the girl with a look of deep amusement, one eyebrow quirking.
"I might change that, you know," he said carelessly, as if it did not matter to him, but there was a look of mischief and pleasure in his eyes that belayed the otherwise seemingly indifferent glance. "I could call you Sunshine one day and then Sunglow the next...or perhaps Sunrise or Sunset even, depending on my mood."
He was teasing her, of course, but at least it appeared that he had managed to lift her spirits - even if it was only for a small amount of time.
"Frederick Alexander St. James," came the answer, Fritz waving a hand extravagantly. "My mother's idea. My twin brother was the one who came up with calling me Fritz after he'd seen the name in a book somewhere, and it stuck."
He shrugged, grinning. "I am all right with any nicknames, really. The little girl in the other outpost already calls me FredBob, after all."

Roxy shrugged her shoulders, nonchalant, "not that I would mind, just as long as its not insulting," she replied to his suggestions of other names; really she now comparing the idea of numerous nicknames to having a plethora of clothing, never a bad thing to have too many.
Even though she was trying to be cool and indifferent about it, there was still a smile on her face. The teasing was totally working and her mind was more settled into a state of normalcy in just a short time. Fritz really was a miracle worker.
"My compliments to your mother then," Roxy grinned as she leaned a little more on the railing, "she does have wonderful taste. Does your brother have a wonderfully put together name as well?" And honestly, she wanted to know more about this whole twin thing as it was, she was an only child and having a sibling alone seemed to be an experience... but having someone with the same face? Well.
She also wasn't sure how to comment on his nickname of FredBob, she gave him a peculiar look from his statement about it. Two bland names put together in an attempt to make it interesting. Leave it to a child. Wait. "A little girl?"

"I would never dream of attaching an insulting nickname to someone as lovely as yourself," said Fritz breezily. "It would be a detriment to society, should I decide to do so. Nicknames in general should be something cheerful and uplifting, don't you think, Sunshine?"
He still had no idea what the girl's real name was, but at the current moment he did not really care. A playful nickname was enough for him, especially in the uncertain situation they were currently in. And it was making her smile - Fritz could see her lips twitching with amusement, despite the fact that she was clearly attempting to remain stoic about the entire situation.
"Why thank you," he said, and grinned. "I quite like her, you know, though I rarely get to see her. She and Dad still make their living in London while twin and I spend time here in good, ole' Destiny City."
"And his name is Tolliver," Fritz went on with a smile. "Tolliver Thomas St. James. I call him Ollie every now and again - when I want to be walloped upside the head, that is, since he prefers his full name to a shortened one."
He tilted his head, giving her a scrutinizing glance, then said "Yes - I'm afraid I forget her name, but she was one of those senshi people - quite a young one, though, with bright orange hair. A clever and quite pleasant girl, to be sure."

Roxy found herself rolling her upper body back against the railing, nearly to the point of being able to flip herself backwards off it. But it mostly just to crack her back. It was oddly comfortable as she allowed the name Tolliver to rattle around in her mind, "Tolliver," she then said allowed to let it slide off her tongue. She found she rather liked the name.
And this whole eccentric family with their names, if the rest of the lot were like Fritx they seemed like they would be awesome company to keep. "London, eh?" She decided to press upon instead, "must be nice to go over seas though," she mused, flipping her upper body back upright at last with a sigh. "This is, honestly, the first time I've been ever left the country." True, she often went to various neighboring cities, but never enough to cross an ocean .... or a planet for that matter.
Roxy still wasn't sure what to make of the little girl though. A senshi person to boot? She didn't want to add anything else to the weird pile, since really at some point nothing really was going to be odd about this place and it would establish its own set of 'normal' but it was still... weird to hear about.
