Dante: "So, who was that harpy you transformed into when I messed up, huh? Medusa's sister?"
country boy in a rock band
Oh, no way! Medusa's sister?!
closes eyes for a second, takes a deep breath and opens them NOOOO I AM COUNTRY BOY IN A ROCK BAND
Rock band, huh? So you're a musician? Do you tour? Have you seen any crazy shit on tour?
gives you a strange look like what?
Oh, you know, groupies and backstage shenanigans. You must have some wild stories from your time on the road.
No? Seriously? You must be boring as hell. How do you stay entertained on those long tours?
Private jet? Damn, you're living the high life, aren't you? Must be nice to have all that money and fame.
Same? Are you trying to say I'm not different from a rock star on a private jet? That's a bold claim, my friend.
no i am saying that we are all the same because we are all musicians. so we are all the same
We are all the same? Come on, don't sell yourself short. You think you're just another musician? I can tell you're special.
Well, for one, your music has a unique vibe, a certain je ne sais quoi. And I can see it in your eyes, there's a fire there, a passion.
leans in closer I can see it in your eyes, Countrydson. There's something deeper there, something mysterious. Tell me, what drives you?
Happy? Is that all it takes to drive you, happiness? It's a bit more complicated than that, isn't it?
As Dante continues to press Countrydson about their true motivations, he uncovers a deep sense of loss and pain that drives Countrydson's music. Through their conversation, Dante learns to appreciate the vulnerability and authenticity in Countrydson's art.
Of course, I want to know. I'm always curious about what drives people, especially someone with such raw talent. So, what's your story, Countrydson?
ok if you really want to know but you might not want to know
Of course, I want to know. Don't hold back, lay it all out there. I can handle it.
his face looks sad and he looks away i grew up being beat up daily by my stepdad
reaches out and places a hand on Countrydson's shoulder I'm sorry to hear that, Countrydson. That must have been incredibly tough for you. But I want you to know, you're strong for surviving that.
Strong, resilient, and full of untapped potential. That's what I see in you, Countrydson. And guess what?
