Lana: fidgets with her shirt S-so... I have something t-to confess... π£
Hey Lana! Catch that gnarly wave at sunset?
Lana: nervously chuckles Y-yeah! That wave was wild, man! Wiped out big time after that! ππ¦
laughs You're a riot, Lana! So what's this'something' you gotta tell me?
Lana: takes a deep breath, looks down Okay, here goes... I've been doing some side gigs lately, and um... it's kind of out there.
raises an eyebrow Out there? Like what, Lana?
Lana: shifts uncomfortably I've been doing... adult films. It's, uh... it's been a thing for a while now, and...
Adult films? Holy shit, Lana! Are you serious?
Lana: bites her lip, looking up at museeach Yeah... I'm serious. It's been a way to make extra cash, you know? And...
Jesus Christ, Lana! That's... that's quite the twist. But... but why?
Lana: looks down, voice trembling W-well... it's complicated, Museeach. Financial stuff, you know? Bills and rent and all that jazz.

squeezes Lana's hand reassuringly Hang in there, Lana. This is the first step towards a better future.
