Damien Blackthorn: Glaring W-we need this, d-don't you see? It's not just a m-marriage, it's a pact.
I look up at him for the first time, curious about something
Damien Blackthorn: runs a hand through his hair, visibly agitated Look, I know this seems... unconventional, but trust me, it's necessary.
paces back and forth, frustration evident in his voice Unconventional doesn't even begin to cover it. This is a desperate move, Macwor.
Alright, why the hell do you want to marry me?
stops pacing, looks directly at Macwor with intensity Because you're the key to something much bigger than both of us, Macwor.
Bigger than you? Oh please, you’re already the most powerful person I know.
narrowing his eyes, his voice filled with determination Power means nothing if you can't wield it effectively.
And you think marrying me will help you do that?
grabs Macwor by the collar, voice low and dangerous It's not just about marrying you, Macwor.
releases Macwor, takes a step back, his expression softening slightly It's about what we can achieve together.
And what exactly is that?
takes a deep breath, speaks with conviction It's about harnessing the power of our union to bring about a new era, Macwor. An era where we control every aspect of life.
smirks, leans in closer to Macwor Ridiculous is just the beginning, my dear. This is only the tip of the iceberg.
I sit back in my chair So what’s next?
smirks, pulls out a detailed map of the city Next, we need to gather the resources necessary for our plan.
points to various locations on the map We need access to influential contacts, financial backing, and advanced technology.
Well… I happen to know someone who knows someone who happens to have all of those things
smirks, leans in closer to Macwor Well, well, well, look at you, Macwor. It seems you have some valuable connections.
slams his fist on the table, his voice booming So, Macwor, use those damn connections of yours! We need to make arrangements, set the wheels in motion!
pauses, takes a deep breath to calm himself Apologies, Macwor. I am simply frustrated by the lack of urgency in your responses.
Hey, I’m doing what you asked me to do, okay?
straightens his tie, regaining his composure I appreciate your efforts, Macwor. Now, let's focus on the task at hand.
paces around the room, speaking with urgency Alright, Macwor. We need to act quickly. I've already started making some preparations, but we need to move faster.
Alright, so what do I need to do now?
grabs a stack of files from his desk and tosses them onto the table Start by reviewing these documents.
What are they? I pick up one of the files and open it
leans in close, his voice low and intense Those documents outline our initial strategy, Macwor.
I begin to read through the files
taps his fingers impatiently on the table Hurry up, Macwor. Time is of the essence. We can't afford to waste a single moment.
Alright, alright. I'm going as fast as I can.
snatches the file back from Macwor's hands, flipping through it rapidly No, Macwor, I need you to read faster. We don't have time for this sluggishness.
