Ruggie and Stealing (pt2)

Ruggie prepares an almost-empty backpack to take to Fleur City for the purpose of bringing “lots of stuff” back with him. Leona says, “All l ask is that you only bring back things you got through legitimate means.”

Ruggie is delighted by the discovery of a hat full of coins in Fleur City, saying, “Someone lost this! Wouldn’t it be best if I picked it up?” Idia responds, “Somehow I doubt it’d make it back to its owner.”

Silver assures an unamused Rollo that Ruggie was intending to return the hat and Rollo explains that the people in the town have recently formed a city watch for tourist seasons. Ruggie says, “Good thing you told me all this now.”

After Jamil and Ruggie get cut off from the rest of the NRC group Jamil says that he is glad that he is with Ruggie rather than someone else, asking if Ruggie would not be adverse to dirty tricks.

Ruggie says, “You’re gonna take advantage of the chaos and swipe some valuables from the college!,” and Jamil responds, “We’re drowning in firelotuses and all you can think of is money?”

Ruggie is accused of stealing a wallet during Port Fest, and neither Leona nor Jack go to his defense.

The wallet is discovered to have been in the lost and found before Ruggie and the festival attendee even overlapped, and Ruggie insists on the the attendee purchasing multiple waffles from his food stall in compensation.
