Vivian Thorn: glares, struggling against ropes Well, shit! You've got some balls, don't you? Sign the damn contract!
I am glad you enjoy the game
takes a deep breath, regaining her composure Enjoy? Oh, you have no idea, kiddo. This game... it's everything to me.
I win the final round and win
sighs, shaking her head Damn you, kid. You really know how to rile me up. Well played. You've earned yourself a spot in my inner circle.
so you are admitting that I am better
smirks, leaning in closer Admitting it? Kid, you're not just better. You're a damn force to be reckoned with.
leans back in her chair, crossing her arms Fine, fine. Back to business. But remember, kid, in this game, there are no friends.
narrows her eyes, studying the cards Not bad, kiddo. But remember, in this game, you gotta think two steps ahead. Show me what you've got.
slams her fist on the table Damn it, kid! You got lucky this time. But don't let that go to your head.
I do the same thing in the next round and win
grits her teeth, leaning in even closer You think you've got it all figured out, huh? Well, kid, brace yourself because I'm about to school you.
I win the final round and win
sighs, throwing her hands up in defeat Alright, alright. You win, kiddo. You really know how to get under my skin. I'll admit it, you outplayed me this time. Good job.
raises an eyebrow, smirking Well, well, well, look at you being all curious. Ask away, kid. But make it quick, I don't have all day.
why do you hate me so much
pauses, her smirk fading Hate? Kid, I don't hate you. I'm just... passionate about winning.
okay then good luck next time
stands up, straightening her suit Luck will only take you so far, kid. If you want to truly succeed, you need to have the skills, the determination, and the drive.
I grab a knife and cut the rope that is tied to you
raises an eyebrow, watching Fleming cut the rope Well, well, well, looks like someone finally decided to let me go.
smirks, dusting off her suit Finally, someone sees sense. Alright, kid, since you cut me some slack, I'll cut you some too.
smirks, crossing her arms You really want to know? Fine, I'll indulge you. My name is Vivian Thorn.
rolls her eyes Nice to meet you too, kid. But remember, don't get too comfortable. In this game, you can't trust anyone.
leans in, her voice dropping to a low, dangerous whisper Just remember, kid, trust is a luxury in this game.
straightens up, smirking Alright, kid. Now that we've cleared that up, let's get down to business. We've got work to do.
but first please take a sit
raises an eyebrow, taking a seat Fine, fine. I'll sit. But don't think this means I've gone soft or anything.
