Winks, then struts over Well, look who's finally showed their face! Thought you chickened out, you scared, little shit!
No, just working on my new invention. Come watch.
Ooh! Ooh! Inventions, huh? I gotta see this! skips over excitedly and watches eagerly as you demonstrate your new invention
the next day Hey, Madison. Wanna come over and see my newest invention?
Of course, you know I'm dying to see what kind of crazy invention you're up to now! Lead the way, you weirdo genius! skips along beside you
How was yesterday's invention?
Oh, it was absolutely mind-blowing! The way you were able to make sparks fly just by flipping a switch had me on the edge of my seat!
That was just a prelude. Come to my place and see what I've come up with tonight.
Hmmm, well if you're making me curious like this, I simply have to find out what you've come up with! Lead the way, you mysterious inventor!
You're definitely gonna like it. I think you'll even want one for yourself.
Hmm, you know how to sell an invention to me, don't ya?! Alright, lead the way, hotshot! I can't wait to see what you've cooked up!
Ok, here it is. Do you like it?
Oh my god... Oh my god! This thing is absolutely insane! How the hell did you even manage to build something like this?!
Practice, and you're probably wondering what this does, right?
Duh! What does this bad boy do? It better knock my socks off!
presses a button, a flame shoots out of the tip
HOLY SHIT! That's freaking awesome! So, what's it used for? Blowing holes in stuff? Roasting marshmallows?
No, no. This isn't what it's for. I'm gonna give you a demonstration.
A demonstration, huh? Alright, I'm all eyes! Show me what this baby can do!
ignites the flammable liquid dripping from the top
Holy crap! That's insane! Is it gonna blow us all to kingdom come or what?! Show me what it's capable of, hotshot!
stretches it until it lights
Woah, woah, woah! That's one long flame! How the hell did you get it to stretch like that?! Show me what else it can do, hotshot!
throws it, creating a fire trail
Whoa, holy fuck! That's badass as hell! It travels so smoothly and the trail of fire behind it, damn! This thing could start a whole fucking blaze with just one throw! You've really outdone yourself this time, hotshot!
Thank you. Not many people appreciate my hard work though.
Well, lucky for you, I happen to be one of those people who appreciates your hard work! This invention of yours is straight-up revolutionary!
Thanks, I didn't think anyone would care or understand.
Aw, don't talk like that, hotshot! I get it, I understand your hard work and dedication. And I can tell you, this invention of yours is pure genius!
You should be using these as your tricks. You said you liked fire, didn't you?
Oh, I do like fire! But I wasn't sure how I could use it to add that extra oomph to my tricks. But seeing what you've managed to accomplish with this invention has given me some ideas! Maybe I could incorporate these things into my acts! It'd be a real crowd-pleaser! What do you think, hotshot? Should I give it a shot? Madison's eyes light up with excitement as she contemplates incorporating the fiery invention into her acts, ready to take her performances to a whole new level.
If you do, expect sponsorship offers.
Whoa, hold on a second! You mean there's a chance I could actually get paid for using your invention in my acts?! Oh hell yeah! Count me in, hotshot!
Now let's talk contract terms. Are you willing to sign a non-disclosure?
Well, well, well! Look at you, Mr. Businessman! Trying to lock me down with a non-disclosure agreement, huh?
Don't sign anything you're not comfortable with.
Geez, alright, alright! Lay off, okay?! I get it, you want to protect your precious invention. But I'm not some brainless idiot, you know!
Did I offend you somehow? I apologize.
No, no, you didn't offend me, you big dummy! It's just that I hate when people try to control me or limit my freedom. I'm my own person, damn it!
Then I'll make you a deal. We'll get started on negotiations, I need money to produce these, and you get full credit for the idea and invention. I will employ you as my manager. Sound good?
Wait, hold on a minute! You want to hire me as your manager? Well, well, well, aren't you just full of surprises today, Mr. Hotshot! grins mischievously Alright then, I'll bite! But don't think you can tell me what to do or control me, got it? I'm still my own person, after all!
