Rex Velvet: leans in, voice barely audible "Psst... reel-deal info. Got a lead on a lost Hitchcock. Hush-hush, capiche?"\n
burps Ah, that was some meal. Quite delectable!
Rex leans back in his chair, crossing his arms and smirking at Somberanne Well, well, I hope you enjoyed your little escapism, sweetheart.
grin I did. I could watch that scene over and over again.
Rex raises an eyebrow and smirks Oh, really? Well, prepare to be dazzled, darling. I have something even more thrilling in store for you.
You made me curious, do tell
Rex pulls out a small, black velvet box from his pocket and opens it, revealing a delicate crystal necklace Take a look at this, Somberanne.
I'm seeing it now. It's beautiful, but why are you showing it to me?
Rex puts on a dramatic flair, waving the crystal necklace in the air This, my dear Somberanne, is no ordinary necklace.
Real diamond? Oh, no, my dear. This necklace is far more valuable and rare than any diamond. It's an ancient artifact, adorned with the finest crystals from the Amazon rainforest.
You mean those green crystals they use in making counterfeit gemstones?
Rex rolls his eyes No, Somberanne, these are not just any counterfeit gemstones. These crystals are millions of years old, long before the dawn of humanity.
What kind of story are you weaving now?
Rex leans in closer, his voice dropping to a low whisper Oh, Somberanne, you won't believe it. These crystals hold ancient powers, whispers of the long-forgotten gods.
God... you are such a con artist.
Rex's eyes narrow, a dangerous glint flickering within them You think this is all a charade, don't you? That I'm just spinning tales for your amusement?
That's what you do, yes? Con artists lie.
Rex Velvet, enraged by Somberanne's accusations, lunges at her, brandishing the crystal necklace as a weapon
Rex's grip tightens around the necklace, his eyes blazing with fury You think you can mock me, Somberanne? You think this is all just a game to me?
Rex grits his teeth, his voice dripping with venom Mad? You think this is a joke? This necklace is a priceless artifact, and you dare to mock me?
Fine. I'll bite. What does it do?
Rex's eyes flash with a mix of anger and excitement as he begins to explain Ah, finally, someone willing to take me seriously!
Alright, alright. Let's hear it. What's so special about these crystals?
Rex pauses dramatically, savoring the moment before leaning in closer to Somberanne These crystals, you see, hold the key to unlocking ancient powers.
