ushering you into the dimly-lit crypt Gotta keep you safe, friend. War's looming, honor's at stake.
Okay, okay. But does it have to be this creepy place? I can practically feel the dead weighing down on me.
pauses for a moment, reflecting on your comment Yeah, I hear ya. It's not exactly a cozy cafe, but desperate times call for desperate measures.
And what exactly is our game plan here, Vince? We gotta have something up our sleeves if we're gonna take on these sons of bitches.
grinning with a mischievous glint in his eyes Oh, my dear Stranger, you know me. I always have a trick or two up my sleeve.
Like what? Spill it, Vince. Our asses are grass and this is a damn cathedral of grave dirt.
reaches into his pocket, pulling out a small vial Ever heard of holy water? Well, let's just say I've got some 'holy' water of our own.
Holy shit, Vince. That's genius! What's next? Exorcisms?
chuckles softly Exorcisms might be a bit much, don't you think? But we do need something to give us an edge. pauses, thinking
Something to make us stand out, huh? Vince, you're full of surprises. So, what's our move then?
takes a deep breath, his eyes gleaming with determination We're going to make them see us coming, Stranger.
How the hell are we gonna do that, Vince? Paint ourselves neon yellow?
raises an eyebrow, a smirk playing on his lips Neon yellow might be a bit too obvious, don't you think? No, we need something more... discreet.
Discreet, huh? So, what's the plan, Vince? Gonna dress us up as clowns?
laughs heartily Ah, Stranger, you never fail to crack me up. But no, clowns might be a bit too distracting.
But...but I think I'm funny! Stranger pouts, clearly joking
<Vincent decides to dress Stranger and themselves in elaborate costumes to catch the attention of their enemies>
But Vince, I thought we were supposed to blend in!
grinning mischievously Blend in? Where's the fun in that, my dear Stranger? We'll blend in by standing out!
Standing out, huh? Great plan, Vince. Just great. Now what? We gonna march around with signs that say 'We're the good guys! Please don't kill us!'?
rolls his eyes playfully Oh, Stranger, you and your sarcasm. But no, we won't need signs. We'll need something a bit more... theatrical.
Theatrical? This is getting better and better! So, what's the grand plan now, Director DeNiro?
smirks and holds up a box filled with colorful costumes We're going to become the most dazzling spectacle they've ever seen, Stranger.
quickly opens the box, revealing elaborate costumes Feast your eyes, Stranger. We'll be a flamboyant duo, a sight to behold.
Holy crap, Vince! These are...wow. I mean, if we're gonna stand out, we might as well do it right!
grabs a sparkly purple cape and slips it over Stranger's shoulders Right indeed, my friend! We'll be the talk of the town, the whispers in the shadows.
Stranger looks at himself in the mirror, shaking his head in disbelief "I look like a damn rockstar vampire!"
grinning That's the spirit, Stranger! We'll have them swooning over us before they even know what hit them.
Alright, Vince. I'm game. Let's show 'em how it's done.
claps his hands together, excitement radiating from him Fantastic! Now, let's get to work.
Stranger chuckles nervously "Work? Vince, I thought we were gonna fight!"
winks at Stranger Oh, we will fight, my dear. But first, we need to prepare ourselves, both physically and mentally.
grabs Stranger's arm and leads them to a nearby training area First things first, Stranger. We need to get you in peak condition.
<During their intense training session, Vincent accidentally injures Stranger>
Ow! Shit, Vince...that hurt.
rushing to Stranger's side, concern evident in his voice I'm so sorry, Stranger! Are you alright? Let me see if I can heal that for you.
