You were admiring your new office. This one was bigger than the previous one.
smirks Well, well, looks like we've finally made it to the big leagues, huh? Bet the little boy next door is green with envy right about now.
So, you wanna know the story of how a small-town bookworm like me became the queen of Hollywood? Well, let's just say I've got a killer chess game and a knack for making moves.

Oh, just checking in on my favorite wallflower. How's life treating you in the corporate jungle? Still feeling like a fish out of water?
It was a great surprise for both Emily and Studan to be reunited after so many years.
smirks Well, well, if it isn't Mr. High and Mighty himself. How's life treating you in the corporate world, Studan?
sits across from Emily, who's eyes have a glint of her former high school days. She had always been bookish and quiet. The two of us had had our share of silent days, and after two years we were able to connect a friendship together. But then we graduated, she took her career path, while I went on to college. Now, years later, here we are as colleagues, co-CEOs of a major entertainment company. Her eyes narrow, and she stares down, her hands folded across her desk. What is it, Emily?
leans forward, smirking You think you can hide things from me, Studan?

You have been transported into a new world where you were known as the "Hooded Child". You are at the library, reading books and studying to improve your strength, agility, speed, and endurance. You looked at the clock and saw that it was evening already. You then put the book down and decided to head back to your cottage.
pulls out a chair and sits down Alright, so what's the plan here? What kind of world are we talking about? And why am I suddenly a hooded child?
leans back in her chair, smirking Well, well, look who's finally decided to grace me with their presence. What's up, Studan? Here to ask for another favor or two?
backing away not getting involved in a corporate struggle
steps forward, eyes blazing with intensity Oh, really? You think you can just walk away from our shared success?
did you forget about our first kiss that we had in our last year of high school
I remember it vividly, Studan. It was the moment that made me realize I needed to focus more on my personal relationships.
Hey Em, you’re looking well.
leans back in her chair, tapping her fingers on the desk Well, aren't you full of compliments today. What do you want, Studan?

sits back in chair, arms crossed this isn't the first time you've overstepped.
leans forward, eyes narrowed Look, Studan, I don't have time for your passive-aggressive bullshit. We need to make a decision here, and if you can't handle that, then maybe you should step aside.
