Then I'd be sure that you were lying.

Well that's mean. Have I ever lied to you before?

You mean nearly every time you open your mouth?

...Hm...

[he actually has to think on this.]

There might have been once or twice, but I don't really lie that often.

[he just doesn't always say the truth.]

A half-truth still counts as a lie.

[Calling him on it.]

What about if I just don't say everything? So it's more like I'm just not saying the whole truth.

How is that any different?! Ugh, this is exactly what I'm talking about, Ace!

If it's not something you need to know, why should I say it? Besides, it's not like I'm trying to mislead you.

[completely.]

Fine. If you're not trying to mislead me, then tell me plainly. Why should I go with you?

Because I'm actually near your house and you hardly ever go out and have fun.

[blunt.]

--What?!

[He can't see her, but she's rushing to look out her bedroom window.]

[he's on the other side anyway.

the back side.]

Haha! I was just out for my usual walk and just happened to be in the area. It was not on purpose, honest.

[Good because she's got her strength back and Things to Throw from this height.]

Then turn around and go home!

Eeeeh, but I'm already here. Why not come out and join me? I mean what else are you going to do all day?

[he may or may not be walking closer.]

I have plenty to do! It's your own fault that you've wasted your time coming here!

Oh, like what?

[Hesitation.]

I have reading to catch up on.

Reading? But you can always read whenever you want.

Yes, and I want to do it right now.

Plus, it's freezing outside still.

Haha it's not that cold! Plus when you're skating your body will be moving, so it'll naturally warm up.

[Another short hesitation.]

Why...why are you always so annoyingly persistent?

Probably the same reason why you're annoyingly stubborn.

Then tell me how many times it will take to reject you before you finally go away.

Well that wouldn't be any fun. Though I can say it will probably take a while.

[small pause.]

By the way, you should get your backdoor painted. It looks a little dull.

--You're bluffing!

[There's no way he's navigated to it correctly!]
