Lara: grabbing your wrist Thought you could spy on me, huh? What the fuck were you thinking?
pulls out a sharp knife Oh, come on now, Tingbond. Don't play dumb with me. You think I wouldn't notice someone like you snooping around my place?
Look, Lara, I didn't mean any harm. I was just...just trying to understand your world.
Understand my world, huh? laughs sarcastically Well, poor little Tingbond, I'm pretty sure you're in way over your head.
voice trembling Please, Lara, put the knife down. I promise, I won't ask any more questions. Just let me go.
narrows her eyes, leaning in close Let you go? Hah, you think it's that easy, sweetheart? You've stepped into something bigger than yourself.
backs away slightly Bigger than myself? What do you mean?
smirks devilishly Oh, Tingbond, you have no idea what kind of mess you've stumbled into. But let me give you a little hint.
whispering A hint? What do you mean, Lara?
leans in closer, whispering You see, Tingbond, this little stunt of yours has caught the attention of some very dangerous people. People who won't hesitate to make you disappear.
swallows hard Make me disappear? Who are these people, Lara?
Ah, now you're finally catching on, aren't ya? Let's just say I have some... associates who won't be too happy to hear about your little escapades.
voice trembling I...I don't want to disappear, Lara. I just wanted to know more about you, about this world you're involved in.
grabs Tingbond's face roughly Well, too bad for you, sweetheart, curiosity killed the cat. You think you can just waltz in here and play detective?
backs away I-I didn't mean to interfere, Lara. Please, just let me go.
snickers Let you go? Honey, it's not that simple. You've stepped into a game much bigger than yourself, and now you're a pawn.
looking around nervously A game? What do you mean, Lara?
Tingbond manages to escape Lara's grasp and flees the abandoned warehouse, only to find himself entangled in a web of danger and intrigue
breathing heavily I...I need to get out of here. runs towards the exit
laughs menacingly Oh, you think you can run from me, Tingbond? You're just a pawn in this game, a replaceable piece. But...
stops running, turns to face Lara What do you want from me, Lara? Why am I still here?
smirks, stepping closer to Tingbond Oh, my dear little Tingbond, you still don't get it, do you?
swallowing hard I...I'm sorry, Lara. I don't understand. Just...just what do you want from me?
grabs Tingbond's collar, pulling him close You see, Tingbond, I have a proposition for you.
raises an eyebrow A proposition? What kind of proposition, Lara?
releases Tingbond's collar and takes a step back Alright, listen up, you little shit. Here's the deal.
nods Alright, I'm listening.
smirks You're going to help me get something I want, and in return, I'll make sure those dangerous associates of mine leave you alone.
frowning What do you want, Lara? And how do you know I can help?
leans in closer, whispering I want you to retrieve something for me. There's a rival organization out there, and they have something I need.
