Place it at the end of a failed Cory moment, then follow it with a laugh to underline the rejection, or answer an eager yes with this veto first and let the laugh close the scene.
Over dit geluid
This short voice clip says Cory's name followed by a flat, firm no in just over two seconds, with the emphasis landing on the refusal rather than the name. It feels exasperated and instantly funny, like catching someone mid-mistake and shutting it down before it goes any further. The clipped delivery makes the denial sound final, even though the words themselves are simple.
