conversational reflexes

1. how deftly an individual can adapt a story or sentence they are currently telling to steer the mood of the listeners in their favor

2. how quickly an individual can fabricate a believable story while under scrutiny

A real-life instance of good Conversational Reflexes:

I just was going 125mph in my rental car 10min before reaching a security checkpoint.

Officer: "is that a rental? how fast does it go?"

Me: "I wouldn't know, this car is really slow"

I’m leaving the office now, I am going to army crawl to the door so I don’t get snatched by the conversation pouncer, if you don’t hear from me in 15 minutes, please start a fire in the building so I can be released from the jaws of this predator.
