Jake: Not without crying.
Isa: Can we have pancakes for dinner?
Jake: What, why?
Isa: Because I don’t want steak.
Jake: Just because you don’t want steak doesn’t mean that—.
Isa: *makes a sad face*
Jake: Never mind, have your stupid pancakes.
Jake: Living on earth may be expensive, but it includes an annual free trip around the sun.

i refuse to believe there are people born after 2010.
Isa: Why do people say "tuna fish" when they don't say "beef mammal" or "chicken bird"?

Isa: Could you get me an orange from the market?
Jake: Anything but that.
Jake: The first time I ever got upset in front of Isa, she put her arms around me and it was so awkward that I had to ask her if she was hugging me or reaching for something on the shelf behind me.
Isa: I was doing both, for your information.
Kai: The first time Isa hugged me, it was such a disaster we didn’t make eye contact for, like, a week after.
Jake: Anxiety? What could be giving you anxiety? Isa: Um, let's see. Every aspect of my life?
Isa: Don’t you just love it when people interrupt you?
Isa, checking off a list of the people she’s stabbed: Another one for the taking.
