A uncle? …Eu entendo. He is someone special then, why do you consider him a uncle?

I… I can’t explain it. -rubs his neck- He just kinda… is special.

Uh, bom… -sharps his eyes and looks at sides- Okay then… Not sure if I want to know the rest of the story.

-blinks at him , looking confused- What? Are you sick or someth’n?

-he chuckles awkwardly- Não, não! Don’t mind me… I was just trying to figure out how a mouse would be a parrot’s uncle…

…He’s not…blood related to me. It’s…more like a adopted family.

Adopted? Ah, sorry, I didn’t wanted to offend or something?

Eh? Nah , It takes alot to offend me, Mr. Jose. I get that kinda question a lot.

-pats his shoulder and nods- Yeah, it must have been hard for you before Ratigan. You are strong, Iago.

-puffs up a bit- I-I’m not…that strong. I’m ….just kinda used to be’n…. I had Abu ,Jazz and Aladdin

Hm.. Bem, Eu suponho those are more friends of yours, right? I’m glad you have people to be on your side now. -half smile-

Yeah. Though they’re more like… family than just friends. …

It’s better than my old life. That’s for sure.

Heh, well. I guess you are in good hands then, amigo. -nods-

Shinko giggled a bit as well. “Sounds like fun!” She flustered a bit, rubbing her arm. “Well…I guess you might be busy, so I won’t take up anymore of your time if you are…”

"Não, não..." He chuckles "I have nothing to do, you are not bothering me."

“Well, I’m almost sure you are going to like Rio! Hope you enjoy your visit.”

“Ah- yeah, I hope so too. Oh! And, I’m sorry if I’m bothering you, but….is there anything you recommend for a tourist like me?” she asked, giggling nervously as she rubbed the back of her head.

"Well... There a very beautiful place called 'Pão de Açucar'! It's a... trolley." He chuckles.

He scratches his head confused “Uma fan? Well, you flatter me!” José shakes her hand fast “Didn’t know someone would come here just to meet me!” He said surprised

She giggled at that as she shook his hand. “Oh! I’m sorry, I didn’t introduce myself yet! My name’s Shinko,” she replied, flustering a bit.

He takes his hat off and bows “Prazer em te conhecer, Shinko… Is it the first time you come to Rio?”

Shinko nodded, doing a sort of curtsy in return. She didn’t want to come off as rude, after all. “Actually, yes, it is my first time coming here.”

"Well, I'm almost sure you are going to like Rio! Hope you enjoy your visit."

He takes his hat off and bows "Prazer em te conhecer, Shinko... Is it the first time you come to Rio?"

-tips hat- Well, it would be pleasure to meet that Timóteo person.

-smiles- You’d like him , Mr. Jose. -tilts his head , blinking- Are there things to do in Rio?

Well, of course there are! ..Not quite like Bahia, mas todavia… People care so much for the music and landscape that they don’t seem to look at some little forgotten places from this city… I always like to see the sunset on a abandoned cathedral near house, even if the place is full of… er… rats. -he laughs- Your friend would like it.

So there are a lot of sights to see. That are scenery mostly? Er…I’m not sure Ratigan would like go’n to a dark abandoned place so much. He’s more of a high society;Opera and music type of guy.

Is there some kinda…. festival with music and danc’n?

-he slaps his forehead- Ah, sim! Como eu pude me esque—…? -clears throat- I mean… Of course there is! For me, the Carnival is the most beautiful event of this world. -sighs-

…. ?! - looks fairly alarmed- …Er. Well I wouldn’t really…know about… Carnival? Is that….like a fair? I like fairs , they have candy floss and rides.

-chuckles- Meh.. fairs… The carnival works like a big show of music and dance! Followed by the habitual Samba clubs competitions.. Your friend… Er.. -tries to remembers Ratigan’s name- ..’Marvigan’, would like it. -he nods- He likes music, right?

-Tilts his head at Jose’s pronoucians- …Um. I suppose that Ratigan would like it if there’s music involved. He seemed to like the play we went to were characters started sing’n randomly.

Singing randomly? Where this place is? ..Anyway, I think I would like to meet that.. Ratigan.

It’s kinda weird… It’s like… a bunch of fellows act’n someth’n out with a bunch of others watch’n them. -blinks- Well you sure changed your mind about him then. -smiled a bit- He’s pretty interest’n besides that no-call’n-him-a-rat thing.

…But… He IS a ra—-.. Perdão, I will keep that in mind. But he lets you call him that name, right? He’s your friend afterall…

….Just try not to say that around him okay. ….It’s kinda a nickname that stuck, he is a bit more than a friend. He’s… like a uncle I suppose.

A uncle? ...Eu entendo. He is someone special then, why do you consider him a uncle?

Shinko had just arrived in a nearby beach in Rio de Janeiro. She had never been outside of the United States, and so she was more than a bit nervous.

“I can’t believe I’m doing this….I just hope I’m in the right place….”

The half-animated Toon looked about, hoping she’d spot the green parrot that she came to meet.

He noticed a girl that looked nervous about herself and walked toward her “You seem to be lost… Are you searching for something?”

“Oh!” She turned to see who she was looking for. “Oh, well, I kinda was….see, I came to Brazil to meet you! I’m…well…I’m a big fan of yours!” she replied nervously with a smile.

He scratches his head confused "Uma fan? Well, you flatter me!" José shakes her hand fast "Didn't know someone would come here just to meet me!" He said surprised

Hey, José! Random question from a long-time fan. I know Disney has kind of had you edge away from it in more recent years, but do you still smoke cigars?

O que você acha?
