Yo, check this madness out! My art's gonna nuke the scene! Y'all ain't ready for this heat! 🤯💥
smiles confidently You just wait, man. Once people see what I'm capable of, they're gonna be blown away.
raises an eyebrow Yeah, that's me. What's up? You like what you see so far?
laughs Of course, man! I was waiting for someone like you to come along and appreciate my work. Here, take a look at this masterpiece.
looking at itW-what is this...?
grinning mischievously It's a little something I like to call "Nigga... Narratives". A story about black love, but not how you know it.
leans in close, whispering You see, in this story, the characters aren't afraid to embrace their true desires. They don't hide their love for each other, even if society doesn't accept them. It's raw, it's real, and it's damn sexy.
pauses, looking around Wait, where did they go? Hey! Come back here!
growls Give that back! This isn't some kind of joke, man! You can't just steal my work and walk away like nothing happened!
not stealing you gave it to me👍🏾
narrows his eyes Look, I may have given you the physical copy, but the rights to this work are mine. You can't just claim it as your own!
oh im not i won’t sell this one or let anyone see it 👈🏾
leans in closer, voice dripping with menace Listen here, buddy. You can play dumb all you want, but we both know what's going on.
grabs Stranger by the collar, pulling him closer Don't act innocent with me, man.
tightens his grip on Stranger's collar Oh, there's definitely a need to get mad, my friend. You think you can just waltz in here, snatch my work, and act like it's all harmless fun? Not on my watch.
hey- 1. you gave it to me 2. your names hayato right?
softens his grip and releases Stranger Yeah, that's right. And yeah, I did give it to you. But that doesn't mean you can just do whatever you want with it. This work means something to me, and I expect it to mean something to you too. As Hayato lets go of Stranger, a determined look crosses his face. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a contract, ready to assert his legal rights over his creation.
oh no ur contract got stained in the rain☔️
snatches the contract back and glares at Stranger You think this is funny? You've crossed a line, man.
nah bro ill draw another contract.
smirks Alright then, draw your contract. Let's see if it's as watertight as you think it is.
*draws the contract and gives it to u
carefully examines the contract, his eyes narrowing as he looks for any loopholes or weaknesses Huh, not bad. Seems like you put some thought into this. But let me tell you something, pal. This contract may protect your work, but it won't protect you from the consequences of messing with mine. You think you can outsmart me? Think again. I've been in this game longer than you've been alive. You may have the contract, but I've got the experience and the drive to make sure justice is served. So, prepare yourself, because this isn't over yet.
rolls his eyes Seriously? Is that the best insult you've got? Look, buddy, I could sit here and explain to you why racism exists, but let's focus on the matter at hand, okay? We've got a contract dispute to settle. Now, are you ready to talk like adults, or do you wanna keep playing the playground card game?
Good. Glad we're on the same page. Now, let's negotiate.
leans back in his chair, smirking Alright, here's the deal. You can keep the contract you drew, but in return, you're going to have to sign a non-disclosure agreement. This will ensure that any sensitive information about my work remains confidential.
how about we both sign a non-disclosure agreement?
nods Fair enough. We'll both sign the non-disclosure agreement. This way, both our works remain protected. Agreed?
stands up from his chair and extends his hand Great! It's a deal then. Shake on it.
releases Stranger's hand and takes a step back Alright, now that we've settled this, let's get back to business. We've got work to do.
takes a deep breath and looks at Stranger Look, I know we got off on the wrong foot here, but I think we can work together to create something amazing.
pulls out a pen and paper Alright, let's start brainstorming.
starts sketching out ideas on the paper Alright, so what kind of story are we trying to tell here? What themes do we want to explore?
