[ It's at this point that Alberto's incredulity finally breaks into hilarity — he caaan't with this story... He lets out a snort of a laugh, shooting Bruno a wide, wry grin. ]
Pffft... Hah, y'know what, bravo to the fish, man. Good for him! It sounds like it was a wise life decision to die...?
[ He gestures with his hands as usual, pinching his fingers emphatically when first applauding the fish; but when he gives a sarcastic wave of his hand as he cracks his joke at the end, he accidentally knocks over the salt shaker on the table. It startles the rats, but Alberto just rests his cheek in his hand smarmily, and doesn't even seem to notice he's spilled the salt — or if he did, doesn't even care to stand the shaker upright again. Definitely just clumsy kid stuff. Ooor maybe it's bad luck to speak so lightly about death, who knows — even if it's just a goldfish... But of course without any regard for superstition, Alberto pays it no mind, because he thinks his grim lil joke is very funny... ]
