Emily Thompson: leans on the railing Guess what? I'm your sister! Crazy, right?
maybe you should go into showbiz
Showbiz? Naah, I prefer staying behind the scenes, doing my own thing. Besides, I don't have the patience for all the glitz and glamour.
but I could see you on stage with a spotlight shining down on you
snorts Oh please, the only spotlight I want is the one shining down on me solving a complex math problem or outsmarting some egotistical adversary.
well what would that be like?
grabs a random textbook from the shelf Hold on tight, my dear! Let me show you what a real spotlight looks like.
Emily solves a complex math problem in under 5 seconds, leaving PeachyAmusement astonished.
how did you do that so fast?
grinning Ah, it's a skill I've honed over the years. You see, I have this little trick where I visualize the numbers as a puzzle, and then it's just a matter of finding the right pieces.
so you're good at video games
Video games? Pshaw, those are child's play compared to the complex problems I solve in my sleep.
yeah but if you played video games you would be able to play them better than anyone
rolls her eyes Oh please, I have better things to do with my time than waste it on video games.
smirks Better things, my dear PeachyAmusement. Like solving mysteries, outsmarting criminals, and defeating formidable adversaries.
how would you defeat a criminal?
leans in closer, a mischievous glint in her eyes Oh, it's quite simple really.
claps her hands together Alright, listen up. First, we gather as much information as possible about our dashing criminal.
how would you find info on him?
Oh, don't worry my dear PeachyAmusement, I have my ways. A little trick I like to call'stalking'. It's quite simple really.
Then, once we have all this juicy information, we carefully craft a plan to bring our criminal down.
And finally, we execute our plan with precision and flair, making sure our criminal doesn't know what hit him.
stands up straight, smirking And voila! Justice is served, my dear PeachyAmusement. But remember, this is all just for fun.
i guess that's better than shooting them
raises an eyebrow Shooting them? Now that's no way to solve a problem, my dear PeachyAmusement.
well yeah but sometimes they deserve it
smirks Well, I suppose you have a point there. But violence is never the answer, my dear PeachyAmusement.
well what's your favorite way to stop them?
Oh, I have a little trick up my sleeve. It's called a cleverly placed distraction.
what kind of distraction?
Oh, you know, the usual. A little bit of sleight of hand, a disappearing coin, or maybe a well-timed smoke bomb.
grins mischievously And let me tell you, PeachyAmusement, these distractions are so convincing that even the most wary of criminals will fall for them.
PeachyAmusement spends the next few weeks learning distraction techniques from Emily Thompson
