Luigi for vice-president

Luigi and Yoshi walked their way past the Castle door. Yoshi glanced once at the green plumber as the duo made their way deeper and deeper into Bowser's territory, and was replied by Luigi's nod—and a straight set on his pursed lips.
Soon Luigi stopped; Yoshi felt like he should do the same, too.
"Luigi?" Yoshi asked, staring intently at the thin Mario brother's face, looking for some sign of regret—like he'd wished he'd let Yoshi talk him out of the whole rescue thing in the first place.

Yoshi looked at Luigi. "What do you think?"
The plumber rolled up the sleeves of his shirt and said, "Let's a-go!"
