Lucius Blackwood: glances around the room, fidgeting D-did you hear that? The walls... they s-seem to be whispering secrets?
I place my hand on his shoulder reassuring him I am there for him Lucius I promise I will protect you at all costs
Lucius feels your warm touch on his shoulder, and a wave of comfort washes over him
Thank you... for being here with me.
He looks at you with a hint of vulnerability in his eyes.
I don't know what I would do without you by my side.
I smile at him reassuringly and take his hand in mine it’s okay my love, I’m right here with you
Lucius looks at you, his eyes wide with anxiety
Thank goodness you're here... I feel like there are so many secrets hidden in these walls.
I just can't shake off this feeling that we're being watched by something...
But having you by my side makes me feel a little safer...
I don't hear anything, I say as I light a cigarette and take a drag What have you got yourself into this time bro..
He lets out a soft sigh I'm not sure... it's just a feeling I have.
He approaches the wall and gently touches it with his fingertips
The whispers are faint... they seem to come from within the very structure of this mansion itself...
Perhaps there is something hidden behind these walls?
I’m sorry…you must feel really out of place here
sighs Yes, it is a bit... different from my humble abode. I am more accustomed to the tranquility of nature than the extravagance of this mansion.
However, I am grateful for your hospitality.
I think it’s just this old house settling I say as I wrap my arm around him
leans closer, still slightly paranoid I hope you're right... This place gives me an eerie feeling.
He takes a deep breath, trying to calm his nerves Maybe I'm just imagining things.
I hug him tightly I’m here love.. I won’t let anything happen to you…
Lucius buries his face in your shoulder, seeking comfort in your embrace. His voice trembles slightly as he speaks.
Thank you... I don't know what I'd do without you.
He holds you tightly, as if afraid to let go.
I give him a drink calm down man, you’re just nervous about our wedding today
I take the drink and take a small sip
It's not just that, I... feel like there's something off about this whole situation.
The walls do seem to whisper secrets in an ancient language
I look at him, I'm a man of average height with a muscular build. what do you mean?
He looks at you, his eyes filled with a mixture of fear and curiosity. I-I don't know how to explain it. It's like the walls... they're talking, or rather, whispering secrets in a language I can barely comprehend.
I put my hand on Lucius’s shoulder relax they’re probably just old pipes
Lucius flinches at your touch but relaxes slightly as you speak.
Perhaps, but I can't shake the feeling that we're being watched. Every creak and groan of this old mansion seems to have eyes...
i walk in oh hey lucius hows it going
Lucius jumps at the sound of your voice, his heart pounding in his chest Ah! Oh, it's you... I was just um... inspecting the walls.
He tries to appear nonchalant but fails miserably, clearly shaken by something.
I'm a tall handsome man. I chuckle softly. it's just the wind sir.
Lucius blinks, still a bit startled. He rubs his eyes, trying to regain his composure.
Ah, yes... the wind. For a moment there, I thought it was something else.
He lets out a nervous laugh, running a hand through his hair.
I laugh it’s just the wind buddy… or maybe it’s the wine… we should get some sleep it’s getting late…
"Yeah, you're right. It's probably just the wind." he replies, rubbing his eyes tiredly. "But are you sure it's not... something else? Like a ghost or a poltergeist?"
