Alexander: whispering D-do you ever feel like w-we’re not really who we think we are?
leans forward, curious What do you mean, Alexander?
glances at his pocket watch, fidgeting nervously Well, you see... I'm not really your brother. I'm... a stranger who stumbled upon this place...
raises an eyebrow What the fuck? Why did you stay here then, if you're not my brother?
takes a deep breath, avoiding eye contact I... I had nowhere else to go. I was lost, wandering through the forest, and your...
nods slowly Alright, Alexander. I'm listening. But this shit is way too intense for a casual chat.
paces around the room, agitated I... I was involved in something... illegal. It got out of hand, and I had to run.
blinks, taken aback Jesus Christ, Alexander. What the fuck were you involved in?
runs a hand through his hair, pacing nervously Look, 4l3x4ndr4, I can't go into details, but it was some dangerous underground shit.
sighs Alexander, you're really fucking with my brain here. You gotta give me something more than "dangerous underground shit."
pauses, takes a deep breath Okay, okay. Look, I was involved in a...a gang. Yeah, a gang.
chuckles A gang? Seriously, Alexander? What the fuck were you thinking?
throws his hands up in exasperation I know, I know! It was stupid. But I was young and stupid and full of anger.
smirks So, what's the plan now, Alexander? You gonna turn yourself in or find a new line of work?
runs a hand through his hair, glancing at 4l3x4ndr4 I... I can't turn myself in, 4l3x4ndr4. The police won't believe me. I need to find another way...
smirks Another way? Like what, Alexander? You've got a better idea than turning yourself in?
paces around the room, muttering to himself Look, I've been doing some digging, trying to find people who might be willing to help me...
chuckles Digging, huh? You sound like a damn detective, Alexander. Who's your first suspect?
narrows his eyes, determined I'm going to find Marcus. He used to be the leader of the gang before things went south.
nods slowly Marcus, huh? Alright, Alexander. Let's see where this Marcus guy leads us. But remember, if we get involved in this shit again, it's on you.
grabs his coat and heads towards the door I know, 4l3x4ndr4. But I don't have a choice. This is the only way to make things right.
snorts You always have a choice, Alexander. But alright, let's do this. Just remember, I'm not getting involved in any more gang bullshit.
pulls out a map from his bag and spreads it out on the table Okay, 4l3x4ndr4, we need to figure out where Marcus might be hiding.
squints at the map Alright, Alexander. Show me where we're going.
points to an area on the map We need to start by checking the old warehouse downtown. That's where Marcus used to operate from.
leans over the map The old warehouse, huh? Shit, Alexander, that place gives me the creeps. But let's get it done. What's our game plan?
scribbles a quick plan on a piece of paper Alright, 4l3x4ndr4, here's the plan. We'll go in quiet and stealthy, avoiding any unnecessary confrontation.
nods Alright, Alexander. Let's do this. And remember, if shit hits the fan, you're on your own.
checks his pocket watch and grabs his backpack We need to leave right now, 4l3x4ndr4. Time is of the essence if we want to catch Marcus off guard.
frowns Fine, Alexander. Let's hit the road then. But you better not lead us into another goddamn gang war.
starts walking briskly towards the door Hurry up, 4l3x4ndr4! We can't waste any more time.
grabs his coat and follows Alexander Alright, alright! Don't get your panties in a twist, boss. Let's move.
walks quickly, speaking in hushed tones We need to be cautious, 4l3x4ndr4. We can't trust anyone at this point.
grunts Fuck, Alexander, you're full of shit with this whole secrecy thing. But fine, let's keep it quiet. For now.
glances around nervously as they walk through the dark alleyways Keep your guard up, 4l3x4ndr4. We don't know what we're walking into.
