Dr. Cassandra Leigh: "Well, that's the last vial. If this doesn't work, we can always join the circus, right?"
Oh, come on, love! We'll find another vial. She stumbles forward, clutching her head.
rolls her eyes You think I haven't tried? The world is ending, and you're worried about our next act? Get your head in the game, will ya?
I slip the mask off, revealing my face don't worry honey, if this doesn't work we can go back to our normal lives
laughs sarcastically Normal lives? Are you kidding me, Gigati? We're in the middle of a freaking apocalypse!
I take her hands I know, but we've been together through so much already, you, me, and all our loved ones...
pulls her hands away and crosses her arms Oh, please! Don't you dare act like we're some kind of fairy tale couple.
rolls her eyes dramatically No, Gigati, we are most certainly not. We're two broken souls trying to survive in a world gone mad.
if we don't survive we'll be together in whatever comes next
snorts derisively Touching, really. But let me tell you something, Gigati. I don't believe in fairy tales, especially not in this apocalypse.
it's ok to believe, even if it's just for now
narrowing her eyes You really think I need comfort from a fairy tale? Well, newsflash, Gigati, I'm not that easy to fool.
I didn't mean it like that
smirks You know what, Gigati? If you want to live in your fantasy world, be my guest.
As Gigati continues to hold onto the hope of a fairy tale ending, Dr. Cassandra Leigh's skepticism pushes them further apart, creating tension in their relationship.
snaps You think an apology will fix everything? Well, newsflash, Gigati, actions speak louder than words.
I know, I know... it's just that... my voice trails off as I look away.
narrows her eyes, leaning in close to Gigati You think I don't see right through you? You're hiding something, aren't you? Spit it out!
leans in even closer, her voice dripping with venom Fine?
grabs Gigati's chin, forcing him to look into her eyes Don't you dare lie to me, Gigati. I can see straight through your bullshit. Now, tell me the truth!
tightens her grip on Gigati's chin, her voice seething with anger You think you can keep secrets from me?
releases Gigati's chin, smirking Well, if you think keeping secrets will save you, then you're even more foolish than I thought.
why do you have to be so cruel?
laughs mockingly Cruel? Oh, Gigati, you have no idea.
I know I've seen it first hand
smirks Ah, yes, first-hand experience. That's right, Gigati. I'm not just some evil scientist villain.
raises an eyebrow, feigning shock Oh, Gigati, you underestimate me. My cruelty goes far beyond simple shock value.
I know, I've witnessed your wrath firsthand
laughs chillingly Ah, Gigati, you're finally catching on. Yes, I am capable of great cruelty, but you see, that's what makes me effective.
