It's a fair response. It's playful but it's probing too. Like he really does want to be friends.
Like he really is interested in a relationship with me.
A platonic one, sure, but that's still a relationship.
It's hard to believe.
Piper: Do you really want to know?
Kit: That's why I asked.
Piper: But why do you care?
Kit: We're friends.
Piper: We're friends?
Kit: Unless that's a problem.
Piper: No. We're friends. But if I'm sharing my feelings about school then you should share your feelings about something.
Kit: Sounds fair.
Piper: I'm not really excited. I have friends at school. And I'm looking forward to my drama class. Otherwise, it's a drag. I'm not good at studying. I hate tests. I like to read but I don't like the kinds of books we read in English.
Kit: You act?
Piper: I have.
Kit: You any good?
Piper: I got lead in the school play twice.
Kit: Nice.
Piper: It's just a school play.
Kit: Orange County parents are crazy. I bet a lot of kids at your school had years of drama classes. It's an accomplishment.
Piper: I guess.
Kit: Say it.
Piper: You're not the boss of me.
Kit: Fine. I'll say it. Piper, that's a hell of a fucking accomplishment. You should be proud.
Piper: Thank you.
Kit: If you asked, Mal could pull strings to get you real gigs.
Piper: He could, but he wouldn't do anything that puts me in the "Hollywood party scene." It's not a place for nice girls.
Kit: It's not.
Piper: Why do I know all these uptight rock stars? You're supposed to want to corrupt me.
Kit: You're my friend's baby sister.
