The Haling High kids I met on Saturday wanted to know if we play sports.

I just told them no but now I want a decoy sport that we can say we're secret champions at in case this issue comes up again.
Someone join my ragtag imaginary fencing team or come up with a better idea.

That can't be his n [...] Maybe he was just being nice?

[vanghost]

To what end?

[selbydenman]

Just [...] being nice?

[vanghost]

Maybe.

[survivalof]

Nah.

[selbydenman]

Why not?

[survivalof]

Because like what's the motive?

[selbydenman]

Do you need a motive to make friendly conversation?

[survivalof]

Most of the time.

[selbydenman]

[...] Well. I don't think that's true for everyone?

[unremittent]

Aw honey, that's just because you're one of the good ones.

[selbydenman]

I'd say a lot of people here are 'good ones'.

[unremittent]

And that's where you're dead wrong, but ain't you just precious for saying it!

[selbydenman]

I think you're all too critical of yourselves sometimes.

[unremittent]

Oh, I'm not the one I'm judging. [...] No, no, I'm just teasing. I think all of y'all are wonderful.

Say, Selby, you'd pretend to be part of the Finchwood archery team, right?

[selbydenman]

Just to compete with the Haling Cove kids? [...] I'd feel sort of weird about it.

[unremittent]

Well, it'd be for Slade. He needs our support.

[unironickylorenfan]

Look at you, leading Selbs down the dark path of fake competitive archery.

[unremittent]

Liam! You're making me sound downright awful! I'm only trying to help.

[selbydenman]

I'm just not actually sure he needs our help?

[unremittent]

Maybe not. But we can't let those snobs from Haling Cove make anybody feel bad about this little school of ours.

[unironickylorenfan]

A valiant effort, for sure. I think you've almost won him over.

[unremittent]

It's hard to convince you boys I'm right sometimes, but trust me, it's always worth it.

[survivalof]

Only most people.

[selbydenman]

I don't think that's true.
