Piper: Shhh, don’t tell my family. They’re going to know I fell off the wagon.
Finn::raised-eyebrow: emoji
Finn: What wagon?
Piper: A few years ago, I stress-baked a lot.
Finn: Does it help with anxiety?
Piper: It does. You should try it.
Finn: Do I look like someone who can bake?
Piper: Definitely.
Finn: Is that something I used to do?
Piper: Are we starting with the questions again?
Finn: It’s a yes or a no question. I deserve an answer.
Piper: You know the rules.
Finn: Ask away.
Piper: Yes, you used to bake. You mastered the art of baking muffins.
Finn: I do like a good muffin.
Piper: Is Derek driving, and you’re texting?
Finn: You’re using your question for that?
Piper: No. That’s part of our regular conversation. I’m saving my question for later.
Finn: I’m suspicious.
Piper: You know how conversations work, don’t you? I mean, Derek recommended you take a crash course on social skills. Maybe we have to start from conversation 101.
Finn: :unamused: emoji
Piper: Then, answer.
Finn: I flew us here. And before you ask, I have a license to pilot planes and helicopters, and it didn’t come from a cereal box.
Piper: :ROFL: emoji
Piper: I wasn’t going to ask. You seem like a man who’d only play by the rules. I doubt you’d drive with a one-day expired license or jaywalk. Plus, you don’t joke.
Finn: Are you saying I’m not funny?
Piper: Can you be funny?
Finn: I can try.
Piper: Rule one of being funny, ‘You don’t try.’ ‘Do or do not, there is no try.’ Let it come naturally to you.
Finn: There’s a handbook for that? I’ll check online and buy the audio.
