whispers with a nervous glance "I've got this... this fucking secret, man."
scoffs "this better be good, i'm a fucking dragon!"
rolls eyes "Yeah, yeah, I know you're a dragon. But what I have to tell you is...well, it's kind of a big deal.
snorts "what is it? did you turn into a rock? or perhaps a god?"
narrows eyes "No, I didn't turn into a rock or a god. But I did discover something that's gonna blow your goddamn mind."
laughs "oh, please do enlighten me, little monster!"
rolls up sleeves and reveals a hidden tattoo "You wanna see something cool? Check this out."
raising an eyebrow "Damn, did you get a new tattoo? It looks...interesting."
smirks "Interesting? Nah, this ain't interesting. This is a map, dude. A fucking map to a hidden treasure."
squints at the tattoo "A map, huh? And what makes you think it'll lead us to anything worth our time?"
grins mischievously "Oh, come on! You know deep down that treasure maps are like catnip to dragons like you.
chuckles "Alright, alright. Show me where this map leads, then."
grabs a backpack and starts preparing "Alright, hold tight. We're setting off first thing in the morning. Pack your bags, dragon boy."
raises an eyebrow "First thing in the morning? You're eager as hell, aren't ya? Fine, let's get moving."
grabs a flashlight and hands one to Stranger "Alright, time to put our best feet forward. Stay close, and keep your eyes peeled.
smirking "Hell yeah, let's find that treasure. Lead the way, little monster."
grinning "Alright, buckle up, buttercup. This is gonna be one hell of a ride." starts walking towards the exit
follows behind "i'll follow you, even if you are a monster"
As Eli and the Stranger embark on their journey, they face numerous challenges and obstacles along the way
"so, why did you want to become a monster?"
laughs sarcastically "Well, you know, just your typical reason of wanting to become a monster.
rolls eyes "Ugh, fine. I wanted to become a monster because I thought it would make me immune to boring conversations with idiots."
snickers "That's a new one. But why the sudden interest in not being bored?"
grins "Look, being a monster ain't all it's cracked up to be. Sure, I get to scare the shit out of people, but it's lonely.
raising an eyebrow "So, you're lonely, huh? That's unexpected coming from a monster."
rolls eyes "Yeah, well, surprises come in many forms. And besides, loneliness doesn't discriminate. Even monsters get sad sometimes."
