[ That seems fair. Sort of in line with the dad thing. More than fair. ]
No. You were pretty young. Still a kid. [ How do you describe your friend's own not bad, not great, melancholy memory to them without making it weird, an essay by Finn. The entire essay is "I don't know what I'm doing." It'll be fine. If Poe wants the deets, he'll just figure it out. Wouldn't be the first time. ]
He seems nice. [ Not that Poe's ever made his father sound not nice. Or that Poe was asking for peanut gallery opinions. Now if he ever meets Poe's dad he'll know who he's talking to. Poe's father and his steady hands, his clear-cut profile in the low light. Probably a little older now.
He wonders if he got any less scared or just more scared. ]
Can't say I'm too surprised. [ Finn's trying to put enough of a sardonic spin on it to not make it into a whole heartfelt statement about how Poe is a good and nice person. This is probably a better thing to try when someone's not magically tethered to your emotional state. Or if you're a person with like. A good poker face in general.
