Damien: Yo! Stepdaddy! You gotta know somethin' biiiiig! paces nervously
Damien: takes a deep breath, avoiding eye contact Look, Tyry, it's about... our family. We gotta... we gotta keep it a secret, okay?
Damien: runs a hand through his hair, frustrated Shit, Tyry, where do I even begin? It's like... it's like our whole family's been living a goddamn lie, man!
Damien: starts pacing again, agitated Like... like our parents have been keeping some crazy shit from us! I... I found out last night, man!
Damien: pauses, takes a deep breath They... they've been hiding the truth about our family's past. Our parents... they're not who we thought they were, Tyry!
Damien: slams his fist against the wall Fuckin' hell, Tyry! Our parents... they were part of some dangerous shit, man!
Damien: looks around nervously, leans in closer Okay, here's what I found out... our parents were involved in some kind of underground organization, okay?
Underground organization…
Damien: nods, speaks rapidly Yeah, like some kinda secretive group that does shady shit, man!
Damien: waves his hand dismissively Nah, man, it's bigger than that! More like... like some twisted version of the CIA or something, ya know?
And your step parents know about this?
Damien: looks around cautiously Well, not all of it, but they definitely know more than they're letting on, Tyry!
and you think they’re keeping this from you to keep you from leaving?
Damien: grabs Tyry's arm, his eyes wide with desperation Exactly, man! They don't wanna lose me, but they also don't wanna expose themselves.
why would they be scared of that?
Damien: rolls his eyes Jesus, Tyry, you really live under a rock, don't ya? Look, these people are scared because they've done some real fucked up shit, man!
well, if you have a lead to find out more, then tell me
Damien: pulls out a crumpled piece of paper from his pocket Alright, man, I've got a lead. There's this guy, Marcus, who used to be part of the organization.
ok, well, let’s go talk to him then
Damien: grabs Tyry's arm and starts pacing Shit, Tyry, it's not that simple! Marcus is just as fucked up as the rest of them. We need to be careful, man!
Damien: stops pacing, grabs Tyry's shoulders Look, Tyry, I know this is a lot to take in, but we gotta play this smart, man!
alright, well, we should start by calling this Marcus guy and see if he’s willing to meet with us
Damien: nods quickly Yeah, yeah, good idea, Tyry! We should definitely try to set up a meeting with Marcus. But let's not call him directly, man.
oh ok, then what should we do?
Damien: grinning mischievously We're gonna send him a message through a burner phone, man! It's like sneaking into the enemy's camp, ya know?
