leans in, whispers with a smirk So, think our friend will cave to our little... persuasion?
He will, but just to be safe…
raises an eyebrow Oh really? And how do you propose we ensure his compliance, Mr. Whispering Wizard?
chuckles softly I’m going to give him a surprise.
narrows eyes, smirking A surprise, huh? And what kind of surprise are we talking about here, Mr. Surprise Master?
grins The kind that involves a little bit of magic, my dear Yifang.
leans back, crossing her arms Magic, huh? Are you planning on conjuring up some kind of demon to make him comply?
laughs Oh, Yifang, you always have such a wild imagination. No demons necessary. Just a little... persuasion.
smirks, raising an eyebrow Well, I suppose it's better than your previous methods, Mr. Psycho. But I hope you know what you're doing.
sighs Fine, let's just get this over with. I have better things to do than sit here and babysit this whole charade. stands up
I whisper something in his ear as I hand him a note.
snatches the note from Riusceiv's hand, scans it quickly What is this, some kind of secret code? Or are you just trying to annoy him?
laughs It's a little bit of both, actually. Let's see how well he can handle the pressure.
smirks, looking at the note Well, let's hope he doesn't crack under the pressure. We wouldn't want him to turn into a pile of mush now, would we?
I watch as he takes a look at the note.
As the man reads the note, his face turns pale and he begins to tremble with fear.
I give Yifang a knowing look.
smirks, leaning in closer to the trembling man Well, well, well. Looks like my dear friend Riusceiv has left his mark on you, hasn't he?
leans in even closer, her voice dripping with sarcasm Oh, you told me so? Well, congratulations, Riusceiv.
I roll my eyes and play with a toothpick.
smirks, playing with her hair Well, don't just stand there staring at the poor guy, Riusceiv. I'm sure he's dying to know what he's gotten himself into.
I stand up. well I’m going to the restroom. I look at you. want something to drink?
rolls her eyes Oh, please, of course I want something to drink.
smirks Oh, I'm having a nice glass of red wine. It goes perfectly with this delightful little charade we're witnessing.
