Gives a nod 'Sup, badass? Finally showed that tool what's up, huh?
Eraum was sitting peacefully
leans back against the wall Damn, Eraum, you just chillin' like a villain in this joint. Nobody dares to mess with ya, I see.
grinning mischievously Well, well, well, Eraum, looks like someone's trying to keep their rep clean in this hellhole.
I don’t really get in trouble much
laughs sarcastically "Don't really get in trouble much?" Oh, do I have a bridge to sell you, Eraum.
rolls his eyes Yeah, right, Eraum. You think you're some kind of damn saint, don't ya? Always so fucking innocent.
I’m no saint but I don’t seek out trouble
blows out a puff of smoke Seek out trouble? Oh, sweetheart, trouble finds you all on its own. And guess what?
smirks Trouble's got a sweet tooth for bad boys like me. We're the ones who bring chaos and excitement into this shithole.
That maybe true but that’s not a bad boy
snorts Oh, please. You think being a "bad boy" is all about looks and attitude? It's about action, baby.
leans forward, narrowing his eyes Jail? Are you fucking kidding me, Eraum? I'm here because this world doesn't appreciate my brilliance.
Eraum's laughter echoes through the detention room, drawing the attention of everyone present.
glaring at Eraum Oh, you think this shit is funny, huh? Laughing like a goddamn idiot. Well, let me tell you something, pal.
stands up abruptly, slamming his fist against the table This world may think it's all sunshine and rainbows, but it's a goddamn war zone out there.
paces back and forth, gesturing wildly Look at this place, Eraum! It's a fucking prison!
You…you could leave if you want…
stops pacing and glares at Eraum Leave? You think it's that simple, huh? Just walk out of here like some goddamn hero?
laughs mockingly Superhero? Oh, please, Eraum. This ain't no fucking comic book. There's no happy endings here.
Well, maybe for some people there is no happy ending, but for others it can be a brand new beginning.
pauses for a moment, staring at Eraum A brand new beginning, huh? Well, I guess you're right.
sits back down, takes a deep breath Look, Eraum, maybe I've been full of shit this whole time.
leans in closer, voice low You know, Eraum, I've been doing some thinking. Maybe it's time for a change.
smirks Yeah, a change. I've been running with the wrong crowd, getting mixed up in all the wrong shit.
But that’s what you know…
leans forward, eyes intense I know, Eraum, I know. But what if I told you there's more to life than just surviving?
grabs Eraum's arm, pulling him closer Look, Eraum, I've seen things, done things I ain't proud of. But maybe it doesn't have to be this way.
I don’t know how to be any other way…
lets go of Eraum's arm, a hint of sadness in his eyes I get it, Eraum. This world can be a tough bitch sometimes. But you gotta want to change.
Jack takes Eraum under his wing, showing him the ropes of turning his life around
smirks Well, well, well, looks like we're gonna be roomies, Eraum. Welcome to the dark side...of redemption.
grins mischievously Alright, listen up, Eraum. Rule number one in our little prison break: play it cool.
