Massimo's boat fit me and Luca, the fish, the cat, and Massimo! And Massimo's like— the biggest human ever, probably? When he sits down to dinner, the table shakes! He's like— this wide, and this tall!
[ Alberto holds his whole arms out at their full span, and rises from his seat to spontaneously climb up and stand on his stool. He might be exaggerating a little... but not by much. Massimo really is huge. He keeps his perch for a moment longer, standing tall and towering over the table, as he continues embellishing this idea with gusto. ]
If a little rowboat can hold all thatand Massimo, we could definitely make one that'd hold just us and some fish! We'd just need some wood — I've got all the tools! We could totally do it!
[ He gestures with both hands at the tools sticking out from the drawers of the desk and the toaster sitting at the bottom filled with more random hardware supplies... He surely doesn't even know what half these things are, why does he have so much of so much... ]
And besides— I wouldn't let Asriel drown...! I'm a great swimmer — even better at swimming than I am at walking, right? If he fell out, I'd save him. But we'll get him one of those floaty vests anyway, okay?
[ Alberto's clearly getting ahead of himself here... But at least on that note, climbs down from the stool and resumes his seat like a normal gd person. ]
[Chara has to stop themself from saying that Asgore is bigger than Massimo at Alberto's showing off the size of his adopted human dad, and does so by putting more food in their mouth. They'll just listen to Alberto speak and wait until the boy is done talking to say their own piece.]
Well, okay. But I really don't think we could build a boat, or should at least wait until it's warmer to do boat fishing. Wouldn't want to hit the ice and like sink the thing.
[They can just find the bad outcome for everything it seems, as the go back to focusing on eating the meal.]
Okay, fair, fair... The weather's been lousy, lately, and I don't wanna get caught outside mid-boating when the sky starts leaking. So— after the sky stops leaking so much, we'll build a boat. There are a lot of fish in the springtime, anyway— at least back home.
[ He takes another bite, rattling off his marine expertise thoughtfully without manners. ]
Mackerel, gallinella, branzino, a ton of fish in the spring...! It'll be the perfect season~
[ He doesn't even know yet that there's snow coming soon enough and he's gonna run into a lot worse weather than these rainy days have shown. Springtime will come as a welcome reprieve far beyond any fishing adventures they have planned. But in the meantime, plenty of time to secure wood for this project. ]
[Chara is hoping that the delay that possible weather changes will cause Alberto to just, you know, forget about the whole boat idea anyway. Anyway, they'll listen to him list off fish and focus once more on their meal.
Since really they don't have much more to say on the subject.]
