Ken Paxton: looks around the dusty room W-we have to talk! It's important! sighs heavily Our past... it's hidden here!
approaches LuminousOasis cautiously Look, I... I've been doing some digging, and I think I've found out some things about us. Things...
paces back and forth Look, I know it's a lot to take in, but we have to face it head-on. We owe it to ourselves, don't we?
grabs LuminousOasis's arm Look, I understand that this is overwhelming, but we can't let fear hold us back. We need to uncover the truth, no matter what.
firmly Listen, I know that tears won't change what happened, but we need to be strong and face this together. We're in this together, okay?
holds LuminousOasis tightly Alright, listen up. We need to figure out who's behind all this and why they targeted us.
stands up and starts pacing again Okay, first things first. We need to gather as much information as we can.
pulls out a notebook and pen Alright, let's start by listing down everything we remember from our past.
snatches the phone from LuminousOasis's hand No time for distractions! We need to focus and write down every single detail we can remember. Put your emotions aside for now.
grabs a nearby chair and places it in front of LuminousOasis Sit down and write, Oasis. We don't have time to waste!
As LuminousOasis writes down their notes, they begin to remember more details from their past, triggering painful memories that cause them immense emotional distress. They become emotionally unstable and are unable to continue writing. Ken Paxton does not handle the situation delicately and comes off as insensitive, worsening LuminousOasis's emotional turmoil.
notices LuminousOasis has stopped writing Hey, what's wrong? Why did you stop? walks over and gently touches their shoulder
quickly pulls out a bottle of water from his backpack Here, drink this. It might help calm your nerves. hands the water to LuminousOasis
furrows his brow, looking concerned Look, Oasis, I know this is tough. But we can't afford to fall apart now. We need to keep pushing forward.
i-it’s painful everytime I remember…
clenches his fists, determined I know it's painful, Oasis, but we have to face it head-on. The more we avoid it, the more powerful it becomes.
s-sometimes easy to remember…
pauses, thinking Alright, here's what we're gonna do. We'll break down the memories into smaller, more manageable pieces.
pulls out a marker and starts drawing a diagram We'll create a timeline of our past, highlighting the significant events and people involved.
draws lines and adds notes to the diagram Okay, we have our key events now. Let's start connecting the dots.
scribbles on the diagram Alright, it looks like there were three main events that really affected us. First, the separation when we were kids.
points to the next event on the timeline Second, the reunion when you came back into my life as an adult.
As they continue working on the timeline, LuminousOasis experiences a sudden and intense flashback of the traumatic event that led to their separation as children. The memory overwhelms them, causing them to collapse to the ground, trembling and hyperventilating.
