[ excellent news. in that case, heine is going to stand and immediately dispose of the rest of the popcorn before leading the way out of the fun fair entirely, back through the park towards the city proper. ]

I was talking to somebody who mentioned this thing as a fruit that she likes from back home. [ this is heine's best attempt at an explanation of why he knows what a durian is, when his home had so little access to fruit. ] She described it, and I spotted one later on and picked it up for her, and... you'll just have to see it for yourself.

[ there's only one grocery that heine has found so far that has them, which is sort of a blessing for reasons alhaitham will fairly soon discover on his own. heine leads the way in, then straight to the fruit section, although he slows on approach to let alhaitham go ahead. ]
