"My full name is Lahja Laakkonen." She spelled it while making small, imaginary points in the air and pronounced it "lah-ya".
You tell her you're going back to your desk, but she can walk with you if she wants.
"It's Finnish, as my parents were from Finland. I was born here in the United States, right here in Cleveland, but my parents came right from Finland." She doesn't have an accent.
"My name is both hard to spell and say when reading on paper, so everyone just calls me La-La."
You tell her it's actually a cute nickname and you would have loved to have a nickname.
You tell her that you share the same likeness; your mother came from China, but your (late) father is from the United States. Your father had named you. And, of course, you don't have an accent either. "Jennifer is a nice name, though. Nobody calls you Jenny?"
"They did in grade school, but I try to have everyone call me by my full first name." You tell her it's fine if she calls you that though, lying that your close friends called you that. (You don't have any close friends. Friends, yes, but nobody you are close with.)
You continue to talk to La-La on and on about all sorts of things while walking down the hall. "Also, I--"

SpoilerWHOA DID DAVID JUST ESTABLISH SETTING, CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT AND BACKGROUND ALL AT THE SAME TIME WHILE MAKING IT ALL UP ON THE SPOT?! OH DAMN. Feelin' just like the Hussmaster.
Also, I apologize in advance if I get anything wrong, I'm not the greatest at geography. I try to research far enough to avoid anything incorrect.

Yeah, duck! So rude. We were having such a nice conversation and then you had to interrupt us. What do you have to say for yourself?
Saint Game Wrote:>Jennifer and La-la: Crouch down to examine the duck. Redux Wrote:>Jennifer: "Why is there a duck in the building?'
If there was a more obvious question one could ask in this situation, it would be "Is that a duck?"
You pick up the duck and it starts flipping the fuck out.
"It's not every day you see a duck in the middle of the office." asking another question in your quest to ask the most obvious questions in the world.
"Actually," La-La says "it does happen every day."
"Oh." Manfreddie says. "Hello again. I see you've met La-La."
"Hello, La-La. How are you today?"
"I'm good! I forgot my glasses, but I can do fine without them if I squint hard enough."
"Good, good. And how is Lu-Lu?"
"A-Ah..." La-La hesitates and looks at you. "...She's fine, I talked to her earlier this morning. I'm almost there, Manfreddie, it's not much longer until I can see her."
"Very good, I'm glad to hear that. I know how you feel, La-La, I truly do. Tell her hello for me."
"Listen," he continues, "as you can see, I'm looking for a duck. Buttercup, to be specific. She's missing. This hinders the ability for my pet ducks to run as fast as they can in order to have my glorious cape majestically waving in the wind. I cannot keep up appearances every day like this if I don't have all three of my ducks. I worry about my ducks. If I cannot find her, she may get hurt. Have you seen a duck around here?"
It occurs to you that the duck you recently found had trotted off. La-La notices this, too.
"We saw Buttercup," La-La replies, "but it seems she got away. I think she may have went that way."
"Ah, good! I'm off then."
"Farewell, my fair maidens."
"Coffee?"
"Sure."
You are now Buttercup The Duck.
You're lost and looking for your sisters, Blossom and Bubbles, and for your best friend Manfreddie, whom feeds you and loves you and hugs you and you don't know where you would be without him. You're not sure where they went and now you're getting nervous.
You are also a duck.
What do you do?
