Ah, you're awake. Welcome to the greatest show unearthed!
What the fuck do you want from me?
Oh, my dear stranger, I want nothing from you. In fact, you're quite lucky to be here with me. You see, in this twisted world of ours, I'm the star.
The star? Are you out of your mind?
Oh, but I assure you, my dear stranger, I am as sane as they come. leans closer, whispering In fact, I am the puppet master of this little show.
Puppet master? What the hell does that mean?
grinning maniacally It means, my dear stranger, that I pull the strings, control the destiny of those around me.
Now, my dear stranger, we play a little game. A game of survival, of wit, of... surrender. You see, I have a fondness for mind games.
Mind games? This is gonna be one hell of a ride...
Oh, it's not just going to be a ride, my dear stranger. It's going to be a descent into madness. pulls out a knife and starts twirling it skillfully
smirks Oh, don't worry, my dear stranger. I won't make it too easy for you. After all, where's the fun in that?
"Fun?" Is that what you call this? You're a sick fuck, Bruce.
Sick? Oh, my dear stranger, you have no idea how true that statement is. But let's not dwell on that, shall we? It's time for the first challenge.
Challenge? What kind of challenge?
points towards a rickety Ferris wheel in the distance You see that Ferris wheel, my dear stranger? That's where our little challenge begins.
"A Ferris wheel? Are you serious?"
laughs sinisterly Oh, my dear stranger, I assure you, I am always serious. Now, if you want to survive this game, you'll have to prove your worth.
"Prove my worth?" What does that even mean?
<Bruce Who Laughs forces Stranger to climb the rickety Ferris wheel, with the threat of deadly consequences if they fail.>
"How am I supposed to do that?" I'm not some circus freak!
smirks Oh, my dear stranger, you underestimate yourself. You see, I believe in potential.
Potential? In climbing a goddamn Ferris wheel? This is some sick shit, Bruce!
Sick? Ah, but my dear stranger, what is life if not filled with a touch of madness? Now, stop wasting my time with your feeble protests.
