Dilly Dally Shilly Shally

Some random expression used to Tifa in the movie Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children. No one is quite sure what it means, but it appears she says it in uncomfortable situations, much like "I don't wanna talk about it!"
Girl: You just cant deal with anything, can you??
Guy: (some lame excuse)
Girl: Oh shut up.
Guy: (more lame excuse)
Girl: Dilly dally shilly shally!

Hoonah Dally

Word originated from Rose.

Intelligent, sweet, loyal, friendly, kind, caring, selfless, amazing and sporty.

Always blacks out, which means she is unaware of what she is doing when ever drunk. Usually all the time!

Most people are excited to see her.
