"No"
"No, thank you"
"I don't want to"
"Thank you for asking! Not at this time"
"No but thanks so much for asking"
"As much as your invitation appeals to me, I must respectfully decline"
"My sources say no"
"No but please ask again later"
"I must humbly decline"
"No but I love you"
"No and I love you"
"I really want to but no"
"I'd rather not"
"This isn't a good time for me"
"I'm not in a good place to say yes so I must say no this time"
"I don't want to say no but I'm saying no anyway"
"I need to decline but I hope we can try again sometime"
"You're wonderful and also no"
"Very kind of you to ask. My answer is no"
"Not at this time"
"Not right now but I can give you a different answer if you ask again in about 45 minutes" (lol - my shift is an hour long, I imagine I might run into this a lot, especially if Finley actually shows up)
............
