"I doubt that there's any food down here. Luckily for us, I've packed some berries to keep up nourished. Please, help yourself!"
"Oh! I never introduced myself. I'm Yoshi, inhabitant of Dinosaur Island! ...Well then, it's very nice to meet you, Luigi!"
"Y'know, you remind me a lot of somebody... they looked just like you, but they were a lot shorter and wore red. Oh! I'm starting to remember now! His name was Mario. That also reminds me of how I ended up down here."
"I helped him get across a huge gap while we were travelling Donut Plains. I underestimated my jump, only to realize that we weren't going to make it. So, I took it upon me to sacrifice myself by chucking him over to the other side."
"What's that? Mario's your brother? Well, that's not surprising at all! You do look quite... 'similar' to him. Hehe!" ;P
"I wonder if Mario's doing okay, I hope so anyway. I can see that you're worried about him, too."
"Not to worry! If we team up, we'll soon find our way out of here. And you'll be reunited with your brother!"
"But let's rest before we do any of that. All this talking's making me tired!" XP
