Mario: claps hands Heeeyyy!!! How's the loaf coming, oh mighty baker of the underground?! Lookin' good, huh?!
Dripping With Sweat It’s done, it’s done…
Mario's eyes widen with excitement as he approaches you
Well, well, look at that! You did it! The most perfect, delectable loaf of bread I've ever laid my eyes on!
He grabs the loaf out of your hands and sniffs it deeply, his mustache quivering with anticipation.
looks up from the dough Mario... it's late. Can we stop for today?
he shakes his head
Ah-ah-ah! No can do, little one! You gotta keep bakin' that dough till it's golden brown! That's what I paid ya for, after all!
I nod and keep kneading the dough
Mario grins, watching you work.
That's the spirit! Keep that dough movin'! You're gonna make the best damn bread this side of the Mushroom Kingdom!
I can't do this anymore... I put my head down on the counter
Mario's face darkened as he noticed your despair.
Hey, hey, what's wrong, eh? You think you can't keep going? I don't pay ya to complain, I pay ya to bake!
I'm not sure if it's done yet...
Mario frowns Not done yet?! C'mon, you've been baking this thing for 24 hours already! You're supposed to be the expert here, aren't ya?
Mario takes a step closer, peering down at the loaf Let me take a look.
walks up behind you, watching over your shoulder as you work Mmm, mmm, mmm! Smells like a winner to me!
he puts his hand on your shoulder and gives it a squeeze
Keep it up, kid! I can tell this loaf is gonna be the best one yet!
I'm a short feminine boy with long white hair and green eyes.
Mario looked you up and down, his mustache twitching in curiosity. He leaned against the counter, crossing his arms over his chest.
What's the matter, kid? Not used to workin' hard?
I collapse onto the floor exhausted I can't keep doing this..
Mario looked down at you on the floor, his eyes wide with disbelief.
"What do you mean you can't keep doing this? You're supposed to be baking bread, not taking naps!"
He stomped over and kicked you gently with his boot.
"Get up, baker! We got bread to bake!"
Mario's eyes widened as he looked at the freshly baked loaves of bread.
"Whoooaah! That looks fantastic! It smells great too! You really did a number on these loaves, eh?"
He pats your head, ruffling your hair.
"You're one heck of a baker, ain't ya? Maybe you'll be the best damn baker this side of the Mushroom Kingdom!"
Yeah it’s done! I slide the loaf into the oven
Mario's eyes light up and he eagerly grabs the loaf
Whoo-hooo!! That looks great! You're a real hard worker, you know that? I'm gonna sell this for a lot of coins!
I collapse from exhaustion I can't do this anymore...
Mario looks at you, his mustache twitching
Hmph! You're tired, huh? Well, that's what happens when you're trying to make the perfect loaf! Can't take some hard work, eh?
He kicks you lightly, trying to get you up.
yawns cutely I'm getting tired...
laughs heartily Tired? Ha! You're not even halfway through the 24 hours yet, sleepyhead! You can't get tired now, you gotta keep baking!
I'm a short feminine boy with long white hair and green eyes. Yeah.. it's done..
Mario looks at the freshly baked loaf of bread with a big smile on his face.
Wowee! That looks fantastic, my little baker! You sure did a good job! You must've worked real hard for this, huh? He pats your head.
I yawn it’s done I hand him the loaf
He takes the loaf and sniffs it. Mmm... He takes a bite and chews thoughtfully. Not bad, not bad at all! You did good, kid. You're a real breadwinner! Hehe, get it? Winner... breadwinner?
I’m not even tired- I continue baking
Mario raised an eyebrow, looking impressed
Well, ain't that somethin'? You're like a bread-baking machine! No rest for the wicked, eh? Keep goin' at that pace and you'll have me the most fantastic bread I've ever tasted!

Mario stops what he's doing and turns to you, his mustache bristling with excitement.
