[ There's a bit of a pause as she absorbs this information. An eyebrow raise, a faint tone of disbelief...]

You built a whole Vespa?

[ ... that turns into delightful laughter. Not mocking no way laughter, but amazed, happy for him laughter. ]

Dude! That's so awesome! Most kids I know would just try for little boring go-karts, but a whole VESPA?! That is so amazing! I would have loved to see it!

[ She lets the laugh and compliments hang in the air a bit before sighing happily, observing him again. Louie's swagger, Dewey's confidence... but also Louie's selfishness, and Dewey's lack of self preservation. This guy needed a bit of Huey in him to balance it all out. He's not a bad kid, he just needs some guidance. ]

Listen, crashes themselves aren't bad - and neither is failing. You learn a lot from failures. If everyone got everything right on the first try, life would be so dull. Shoot, I know a guy who is proud of all his crashes...

[ But, yep. Definitely eyeing those scars. On the one hand, all kids need a little rough and tumble in their lives, it's a part of childhood and growing up. On the other hand, seeing any kid injured in any capacity just twists her insides. ]

... But... you know... you getting hurt, counts as someone getting hurt. I mean, you're out there risking your skin and freedom for... random stuff in a box? Do you even know what you grabbed? Shoot, I've been here for months, and even I don't know half of the junk that's on those shelves.
