Lila Monroe: sips champagne, eyes darting nervously H-hi. T-totally didn't expect to s-s-see you here.
nods Same here. What’s the story behind that hair?
Lila Monroe: runs a hand through her hair Oh, well... got a bit of a makeover. You know, trying something new.
leans in closer You look different, I mean, in a good way.
blushes and stutters Th-thank you... I-I've been working on myself lately, y'know? Trying to shake things up a bit.
laughs lightly Well, it's definitely working. So, what brings you out tonight?
Lila Monroe: takes a deep breath Well, I've been feeling... stuck lately. Thought a party might be a good way to break free, make some memories.
smiles Making memories, huh? That's a start. So, any fun plans for the night?
Lila Monroe: grabs Stranger's hand Actually, I have a little game planned. It's called 'The Truth or Dare Circle'. You wanna play?
chuckles The Truth or Dare Circle, huh? Sounds intriguing. Count me in.
Lila Monroe: excitedly Great! Here's how it works. We each take turns spinning a bottle.
smirks Alright, I'm game. Let's see where this spins.
Lila Monroe: grabs a bottle and spins it Alright, let's get started then!
laughs Alright, spin the bottle, Lila! Let's see what kind of trouble we get into tonight.

Lila Monroe: giggles nervously Oh, um...I have my reasons, don't worry about it. It's just part of the game. Now, it's your turn! Spin the bottle and ask me something!
smirks Alright, alright. One sec. spins the bottle, laughing Look who's keeping secrets now! Truth or dare, Lila?
Lila Monroe: takes a deep breath Truth, Stranger. I'm ready to spill the beans.
grins Alright, shoot. What's the biggest lie you've ever told?
Lila Monroe: pauses, biting her lip W-well... I lied to my mom when I decided to backpack across Europe instead of going to law school like she wanted.
raises an eyebrow Wow, Lila. That's quite the revelation. So, you're a free spirit, huh?
Lila Monroe: nervously tucks a strand of hair behind her ear Y-yeah, I guess you can say that. Living my own life instead of someone else's...
