"Hey! Nobody! Long time no speak!"

"You're really scary, you know that?"

"Nope, I didn't."

"You sure you weren't joking when you said you were gullible? Virtual wink."

"Yeah...I am gullible."

"I would sigh now if it wouldn't be cliche."

"Well, most things you do are cliche. Is cliche. However you say it."

"Ouch. Flora, easy on my self-esteem, please."

"Oh trust me, somebody needs to be going very, very hard on your self-esteem."

"What, you don't believe in self-love?"

"I believe in narcissism."

"Nice. You've sharpened over the past few days."

"Sharpened?! What's that supposed to mean? I'm not a pencil! You've dullened."

"Dude-"

"Wait, I almost forgot. So how old are you?"

"Oh yeah. That."

"Are you scared?"

"Was that some virtual teasing?"

"Teasing doesn't have to be virtual."

"All right. So tell me, Smart Floral Underwear, why would I be scared now?"

"Do. Not. Call. Me. That. And, you'd be scared because you don't want to be rejected for vulnerability."

"Now maybe you don't want to be rejected for vulnerability, but I'm asking about me."

"Okay, okay, fine, sheesh. Eighteen."

"For real?!Dude, you're a little baby! I'm like twenty years older than you!"

"..."

"Actually?"

"Nah, I was exaggerating."

"..."

"It's like seven."

"..."

"HAHAH  KIDDING I'm sixteen and a half!"

"I'm suspicious."

"You're a goof."

"..."

"I mean-"

"I'm confused."

"Well, join the rest of us."
