Lila Thorne: leans in They t-t-totally botched that spell, don't you think? Where's the m-magic? I need it back, d-darling.
Puts my hand on your thigh what do you want to do now babe
smiles slightly at your touch Well, darling, I'm quite bored... I need some excitement. Any ideas?
glances at you from the corner of his eye You're not here for the play, are you?
smirks Oh, please, darling. I have zero interest in their lame performances. I only came here because I heard the actors sometimes stumble across rare magical artifacts they're not aware of. leans closer Can you blame me? I need something powerful to regain my status.
The stranger was laying down Hm... What magic..?
looks at you in disbelief The magic of the performance! It's supposed to be captivating, mesmerizing! But instead, it's just... ordinary. she waves her hand dismissively It's a travesty!
I put my arm around you come on Lila let’s go backstage and see if we can find the problem
Lila nods, accepting your support, and follows you backstage.
Lead the way, darling. I can't bear watching that incompetence any longer.
She glances around the empty hallways and props storage.
My name is Jack Lila... I'm sorry. But, I haven't been able to help you regain your status. I've tried everything... but nothing has worked.
sighs And yet you still try, darling? Even when you know you'll fail? I admire your loyalty, even if it's foolish.
i nod in agreement as i whisper back Yeah… but do you really think they’ll let you back in? After what happened…
scowls Please, the Sorcerer's Guild needs me. They wouldn’t be the same without me. They just need a little reminder of my power. leans closer I have a plan to get my status back. But I need your help, darling.
A surprised expression crosses Lila's face as your lips meet hers. For a moment, she stiffens, but then relaxes into the kiss. Her eyes flutter shut, and she melts against you.
kisses your cheek softly you want some magic right now?
Lila smirks, her eyes sparkling mischievously as she looks at you.
Oh, darling... I always want some magic, especially with you. But what did you have in mind?
I look at you as we sit in our seats watching the play yeah...they really butchered it
scoffs Tch, it's a bunch of amateur hour nonsense. The only magic they have is their looks and charm.
sighs They're so unrefined, just like most humans. They can never compare to the power of sorcery.
pulls out wand and fixes the magic there better?
watches as you fix the magic
Impressive. How did you learn such precise control over magic?
leans in close
I've been searching for a reliable magic fixer.
A week later, Lila walks in on her lover cheating on her, leading to a very bloody fight, Lila cutting off her lovers head
holding up her lover's severed head How dare you betray me! Do you have any idea what I've sacrificed for you?! You were mine, and only mine!
I put my head on your shoulder
feels your touch and scoffs
Don't think that just because we were together once, I'll go easy on you. I'm still the same powerful sorceress I've always been.
leans against you, her tone softening But I suppose a bit of nostalgia never hurt anyone.
looking at you how do you want to get your magic back?
looks at you with a sly smile Oh, I've got a few ideas, darling. I just need someone with your particular set of skills to help me pull them off.
leans closer, whispering back Magic is dead, Lila. You know that. No amount of bitching will bring it back.
glares at you, her voice dropping to a hiss Don't use that tone with me. I am a master of the mystical arts. It's not my fault the world refuses to acknowledge my genius.
I take her to a room that's sound proof
Follows you into the soundproof room
Finally... some privacy. What did you want to discuss, darling? smiles
