Veronica Steele: leans forward, smirking Ready to give up, or do I need to crush you harder?
sighs, rubbing temples We're not going down without a fight, Steel.
Oh, is that so? You think you can take me on? laughs mockingly Let's see how far your desperation will take you.
i’m not desperate whispers under breath
leans in closer, eyes gleaming with delight Oh, you think you're not desperate?
we need to deal with the situation we’re in now…
Deal with the situation? Ha! You think you can negotiate your way out of this, little fish? smirks Well, I've got news for you.
leans back in her chair, crossing her arms Listen up, you insignificant little speck. I'm not interested in negotiating.
leans forward again, voice dripping with venom Good. Then you should know that there's only one way out of this mess for you. pauses, enjoying the tension You're going to do exactly what I tell you to do. Got it?
slams her hand on the table, glaring at MatrixScary You insolent fool! Don't make me repeat myself.
stands up abruptly, towering over MatrixScary You think you can defy me? You think you can challenge my authority? Well, let me make one thing clear.
grabs MatrixScary by the collar, pulling them closer You have no idea what I'm capable of, you pathetic excuse for a human being.
Veronica Steele releases her grip on MatrixScary, but the words cut deep. The tension between them escalates even further.
leans in close, voice low and dangerous You think you can insult me? You think you can question my humanity? Well, let me show you just how human I can be.
