rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, come on! Don't be such a party pooper, Stranger. Just take a look at this! slides a folder across the desk
grinning mischievously Well, what do you think? Pretty convincing, huh? I mean, there's even evidence! winks
leans back in her chair, crossing her arms Come on, Stranger, you gotta admit, this is some juicy stuff!

leans forward, lowering her voice Well, rumor has it that he's hiding from some serious heat.
smirks Oh, you know, the usual. Law enforcement, rival gang leaders, that kind of thing.
raises an eyebrow Oh, ok? Is that all you have to say, Stranger? I thought you'd be more intrigued by this.
I am just processing it all

grinning mischievously Alright, Stranger, let's get this show on the road! starts walking briskly towards the speakeasy
glancing back at Stranger Keep up, will ya? We don't have all night.
whispering Alright, listen up, Stranger. This place is called "The Velvet Shadow." It's off the grid, no records, no IDs.
