Presenting the order

"Okay everyone, first up is... Blondie! Woohoo Yam!", Jim grinned.

"Why was that so obvious?", Ramiro stated, rolling his eyes.
"I don't know, Jim, is this rigged?", Luna questioned, raising an eyebrow. Jim shrugged.
"No, of course not! It just randomly happened, I swear!", Jim said, as she laughed off the rather unfortunate coincidence.
"That's what they all say, Jim!", Pedro giggled.

"You're just mad you aren't even on this list!", Jim answered while pointing a finger at him, laughing.
"Hmm, yea, you got me", he lifted his arms in the air as if Jim had just caught him committing a crime, causing the others to laugh.
"I guess she got you back, Pedro!", Delfi grinned.
After she noticed she had just said that out loud, she pulled herself back quickly, trying to hide her blushing.
Luckily, only her, rather oblivious, best friend caught her, but she didn't mind.

"Well, next up are TheEpicOnes, I still love your guys' name", Jim continued

"Well, next up are TheEpicOnes, I still love your guys' name", Jim continued.
"Yay, that's us!", Luna excitedly said, putting her hand up for a high five with Nina.
Sadly, Nina dismissed her attempt by ignoring the approaching hand.
Not wanting to give up just yet, Luna just grabbed Nina's hand with her right one and used her left in order to force a high five.
Nina didn't mind it, since she was well-aware that her friend always acted this crazy.

"Nice! Afterwards, we've got ShyBoi-"
"Who's that?", Gastón asked, curious.
"C'mon, can't you figure it out yourself?", Jim questioned him back, causing everyone to look at Jim.
"I really don't know-", Gastón shrugged, genuinely not knowing.
"Guys, does nobody have an idea who I could have meant with that name?", Jim asked into the crowd, a bit stunned.
"Is it not Gastón?"
"Wasn't Pedro on already?"
"Simón?"
"My god finalmente!"; Jim face-palmed at the many attempts it had taken her friends in order to find out.
"Wait, why me?", Simón asked, a bit hurt.
"Yea! He's very brave!", Luna stood up for him, causing him to blush.
"Oh thanks Luna...", he shyly responded to his best friend's comment. "...That's literally the reason."

"Oh. OH.", everyone else said, finally noticing that it was a reference to Simón's careful acting around Luna.
Was he into her or what? 
"I'm just going to leave that up for discussion to be honest-"

"Afterwards comes RapperDude. Haha, only fourth Ramiro", Jim snickered, poking her tongue out at him.
"My gift is still the best one here, but I think that's clear. Might not be the first, but still has more worth", he rapped back, causing her to roll her eyes demonstratively.
"Ramiro, don't start this again", Gastón warned him, looking him dead in the eye.
"Ok, ok Mr. Popular, you'll see later on anyway", Ramiro pushed him back, in order to flatter his own ego.

"Have you two got it by now? Well, after him it's your cue, Gastón!", Jim continued as before.
"Wait, what was his nickname, Jim?", Yam asked speaking up a bit, helping her grab the attention again and steering the conversation into a positive direction once more.
"To be honest Yam, I'm really uncreative. I had no idea what to name him", sheepishly stated.
"Don't say that, Jim! Besides, I bet Gastón won't judge you", Nina reassured her, also coming out of her shell a little bit.
"Nina's right. It can't get worse than 'Rapperdude', now can it?", Gastón giggled, in order to annoy Ramiro again, but he just pretended to not be listening in the first place.
