"Yes, please!" said Sparrow delightedly, folding the shirt neatly before handing it to Yin. He rocked back on his heels, thoroughly pleased. "And thank you, you are a kind boil, if I might say."

Enzo had taken a minute to shake off the heebies from the rather invasive tentacled-interview. He hovered between booths, checked his equipment, dusted the roaches off his hat, straightened his coat, and sauntered into the next Student Council Candidate booth he spotted. Ah! A Vice President position, this time! Perfect. Tapping a rhythm as he made his way to the front, he swatted away a pair of birds that suddenly became completely entranced with him like a pair of possessed flies buzzing. They could have been after the bugs on the shoulders of his suit but with a final, "SCRAM, damn feathered rats-" He staggered before searching the crowded booth, "There a guy named Sparrow here?" Ah. That would explain the birds.

He didn't recognize the boil that swaggered up to his booth, but Sparrow gave him a bright smile anyway, rocking back on his heels.
"That'd be me," he said cheerfully. "And who might you be?"

Enzo's eyes were still glued upward for any dive bombing feathered shadows. "Sorry, critters just seem t'get sweet on me," He muttered, clearly not being very sweet on them. He made sure his cap was in place protectively before swinging his shoulder-bag of equipment around and offering out a hand, "Enzo. Enzo Valentino. Head of the student Radio Station. You gotta' moment for an bit of on-air gum flappin'?"

Sparrow reached up and grabbed both of the birds in question, dragged them over to their cages, and stuffed them somewhat unceremoniously back into place, snapping the locks smartly shut. Then he turned around and smiled rather sheepishly.
"My apologies," he said lightly, and then reached out and took the boil's hand, giving it a shake. "A pleasure, Enzo," he said, and then blinked at him curiously. "An interview, you mean?" The smile relaxed. "I'd be happy to."

"Copacetic." He wasted no time pulling the bag back around, flipping a few switches and unhooking the microphone from it's cradle, sending a previously-sleeping rat down to the ground at their feet. " Welcome back, listeners! You're tuned in to RA66.6 Radio Amity with The Rat Man live at Fright Night with Vice Presidential Candidate, Sparrow. Now can I say what a relief it is you gotta' mouth, Bird?" The microphone was immediately swung his way.

It took Sparrow a beat to realize what Enzo was talking about.
"Oh," he said with a laugh and shook his head. "Am I correct in guessing you've just been talking to Riley? But I'm glad to make you feel a bit more comfortable."

" Just so long as you keep your hands offa' me, we're good-to-go." Enzo grinned, giving him a wink. " SO! Vice President! That's a pretty big amounta' responsibility!"

"Rest assured, my hands will stay far away from you," said Sparrow, grinning. He folded his arms across his chest and the grin relaxed into an easy smile.
"Yes it is," he agreed. "But nowadays, what isn't? This is a responsibility I'd love to take on, though."

" You organized shindigs before, then?" The first President Candidate he had offered hadn't even thought about it, and the interview with Riley hadn't exactly given a good opportune to explore the topic.

"Ah, not here at school, I'm afraid not," replied Sparrow, with a small laugh. "I'm afraid the other candidate for the vice presidency has more experience in organizing events at Amityville than I have. But that doesn't mean I can't still do my best and work with the student council to have great student opportunities. I could be an amazing planner just waiting to be seen," he added, smiling.

" I'm surprised! A real sheik like you have the dames crawlin', I imagine." Enzo gave the young man a nudge and a wink. " We all know whatta' school fulla' bloomin' flowers is really goofy for, ammirite?" The rat was growing antsy, and they were far from that lovely cake-ridden booth, and soon set about sniffing at Sparrow's shoes and investigating his socks.

Another laugh.
"Well, I don't know about that," he said, eyes twinkling with amusement. The rats around his feet itched a little, but he made no move to step away. "But I'm afraid I'm already happily taken."

Enzo pouted. Another stiff. " You know you're killin' the votes, breakin' all them poor ghouls out their's hearts hearin' news like that! Alright, alright, alright, numba' one pierogi." Microphone back to Sparrow and a serious expression on the little Reaper's freckled face.

"Alas, yes," said Sparrow, with as straight a face as he could muster. "But that's just how it goes sometimes, isn't it?"
He grinned a little, and then blinked, momentarily confused. "Ah...I'm afraid I might not understand what it is you're asking, but if you mean what's my number one goal as Student Council Vice President, it would be unity among the students. I don't draw lines or discriminate; everyone's on equal footing in my book, and I'd love to see a wider sense of camaraderie among everyone."
