*Solar looks surprised by this, but nods a moment later, grinning.*
Solar:150? That'll make this interesting. What track are we doing?
*Setting the drinks on the coffee table, Heart turns and heads back over to Lime. If she notices his troubled expression, she chooses not to point it out, at least, not to where the others can hear. Instead, she quietly asks.*
Heart:...Wanna see if we can join the next race?

*Dancer shrugs.*
Dancer: Vote already and we'll find out. Come on!
*Lime turns his phone screen off, giving Heart a smile.*
Lime: I'm no good at these games, they'll just thrash me. I think I'll just sit and watch.

Solar:Okay, okay! Hang on-
*Solar votes for a track that looks like it takes place in a haunted mansion. Stripes votes for a track that looks like the inside of a giant pinball machine.*
*Heart nods after a moment's consideration.*
Heart:If you say so. Nothin' wrong with watching and cheerin' either.
*Heart glances back at Dancer, Solar, and Stripes before looking back around the rest of the game room.*
Heart:....we could do checkers or somethin' if you wanna do that, too.

*After a few moments, the pinball machine track wins. Dancer gives a shrug, readying her controller as the race preps to start.*
Dancer: Alright, get ready to get thrashed.
Lime: That... sounds good actually. I'd like that.
*He offers a smile... And also a bowl of popcorn.*
Lime: I should uh, probably get some of this to the others first though.

*Solar's eyes narrow, studying the different parts of the track that shows on screen before showing the players at the starting line. Stripes only grins, leaning back and adjusting his hold.*
Stripes:If you say so.
*Heart glances at down at the bowl before looking back up at Lime, nodding with a small smile.*
Heart:Aight. Want some help passin' it out?

*Lime gives a grin, gesturing to the counter and pocketing his phone.*
Lime: If you want! That or set up the board.
*With this, he heads over to the others with the popcorn.*

*Lime eventually comes over after sorting his tasks out, sitting nearby.*
Lime: So, I was wondering. Do you like your job, Heart? Is there something you would like to one day become instead of a mail pony? Not to say it's a bad job but I can't remember many foals saying they'd like to be one when they grow up. Usually they have another job in mind.

*Heart doesn't immediately answer, seeming to ponder Lime's questions before answering.*
Heart:....It's a good job if you want to keep yourself busy. You get to go to a lotta places everyday, so there's that. It...
*Heart glances back at Dancer, Solar, and Stripes, making sure they're still distracted by the game before continuing, her voice slightly lowered.*
Heart:...it wasn't what I thought I'd be doin' at this point in life.
*Heart gives a small shrug, and gestures to the game board.*
Heart:Eh. Stuff happens, things change. Dreams can't always come true. So... you wanna go first or second?

Lime: Uhhh... You go first.
*He watches the board intently.*
Lime: In an ideal world, what would you want to do then?
