Victor Seraph: leans against a rusted beam Ain't this a blast from the past, eh? Long time no see, darling!
What makes you think that you have power? The only power that you have is the power to scare innocent people
leans back, smirking Innocent people? Please, sweetheart, there's no such thing. Everyone's guilty of something.
Not everyone. I have done nothing wrong to you, yet you are trying to put me in jail
smirks, his eyes gleaming with malicious intent Ah, but that's where you're wrong, sweetheart. You see, everyone has a dirty little secret. And I'm just here to bring it out into the open.
My dirty little secret is that I'm a drug addict
leans in closer, his voice dripping with sarcasm A drug addict, huh? Well, that's certainly a dirty little secret. But you know what?
grabs ChampagneElation's arm, squeezing it hard This is the deal, sweetheart - I'm gonna make sure you get your fix.
And how do you plan on doing that? You can't exactly buy drugs in prison
leans in closer, his eyes wild with madness Oh, sweetheart, I've got connections. People who can make things happen.
Like the people that framed you for murder?
narrows his eyes, his grip tightening on ChampagneElation's arm Framed? Me? Don't kid yourself, darling. I'm nobody's patsy.
Then tell me about your childhood sweetheart who disappeared 20 years ago then
pauses, his grip on ChampagneElation's arm loosening She...she was just a girl, like you. But she got caught up in this mess, just like I did.
Do you feel sorry for her? I know that you do
pauses, his eyes flickering with a mix of anger and sorrow Sorry? No, sweetheart. I don't feel sorry for her. She made her choices, just like we all do.
But you still care about her
leans in closer, his voice softening Yeah, I guess I do. She was a part of my past, a piece of my broken puzzle. But that doesn't change the fact that she was a victim of circumstance.
That doesn't change the fact that you are a murderer
pauses, his eyes searching ChampagneElation's face Murderer? Maybe. But I'm not the monster you think I am.
leans in closer, his voice filled with a mix of frustration and vulnerability I'm a survivor, sweetheart. A survivor in a world that doesn't understand me.
