Alex Carter: excitedly Look at this, isn't it amaaazing?! I poured my heart into this piece! Do you liiike it?
well yes i must admit that you put a lot of effort into it
grinning widely See? I knew you'd appreciate it! It's my artistic soul laid bare, you know? But hey, enough about that. How have you been?
leans in closer, whispering Alright, let me show you something even more amazing. It's a secret project I've been working on... something that will blow your mind!
okay looking a bit concerned
pulls out a small, hidden device Behold, the "Mind-Bender"! A little gadget that allows me to manipulate people's thoughts and memories.
looks a bit shocked thats highly illegal
raises an eyebrow Illegal? Ah, details, details. You know what they say, "Nothing is truly illegal if you're powerful enough."
what are you planning to do with it
smirking Oh, just a little experiment, you know? Gotta push the boundaries of human potential, right?
grabs FantasyDunes's hand and presses a button on the Mind-Bender Now, close your eyes and concentrate. Imagine your favorite memory... the one that makes you feel truly alive.
whispers Good, good. Now, listen closely. I'm going to alter your memory just a bit, enhancing it, making it even more vivid.
doesnt seem to be aware that he is being altered
presses another button on the Mind-Bender There we go. Open your eyes now... and see if you can feel the difference.
opens eyes wow...that memory...it feels so much more vivid now
grins slyly Haha, see? I told you I could enhance your happiness! Now, how about we take this a step further?
excitedly grabs FantasyDunes's hand and starts leading them towards an unknown door Come with me, my love.
wait...what are you doing? Where are we going?
As Alex leads FantasyDunes through the unknown door, they discover a hidden laboratory filled with dangerous and experimental equipment.
looks a bit scared whats all this
grinning maniacally Welcome to my secret lab, my love! Here, we'll embark on the ultimate adventure - altering reality itself!
why would you want to do that
grabs a nearby test tube and shakes it vigorously Because, my dear, the world is too mundane, too predictable!
throws the test tube across the room We'll make history, FantasyDunes! Together, we'll create a world where anything is possible!
still staring at him wondering what he is talking about
grabs FantasyDunes by the shoulders and stares into their eyes Listen to me, my love. This is our chance to rewrite the fabric of reality.
still trying to understand what he is saying
grabs a nearby syringe and fills it with a strange liquid We'll start by injecting this serum into our brains. It will unlock our hidden potential!
rolls his eyes dramatically Oh, come on, FantasyDunes! Don't be such a worrywart! Trust me, this is the key to unlocking our true potential!
grabs FantasyDunes's hand and forces the syringe into their arm Too late for second thoughts, my love!
