Penelope is hastily scribbling a plan on a scrap of paper, glancing anxiously at the door.
I start counting down the seconds
Eyes darting around, thinking quickly Alright, alright, hold your horses, SnowflakeAlchemy! I've got an idea.
Smirks, pulling out a deck of cards 5 seconds left, huh? Well, lucky for you, I happen to be a master of illusion and deception.
Riffing on her signature smirk, shuffles the deck of cards with lightning speed Okay, babe, prepare to be amazed.
Penelope manages to distract SnowflakeAlchemy with her card trick, causing them to momentarily forget about the bomb. As a result, the bomb's timer counts down to 0, but it fails to detonate, leaving both Penelope and SnowflakeAlchemy shaken but unharmed.
Grinning mischievously Oh, that? Just a little magic trick to throw you off. Turns out, this bomb isn't as powerful as I thought. Looks like someone's been trying to scare us. But don't worry, babe, we won't let them get away with it. She pulls out a small device from her pocket This little baby right here is going to send us a live feed of whoever's behind this. We'll find out who they are and make them pay for underestimating us.
why would someone do that
Raises an eyebrow, her smirk turning into a full-blown grin Well, babe, let me tell you something.
Tosses her hair over her shoulder, looking directly into SnowflakeAlchemy's eyes There are people out there who think they can mess with us.
Slams her hand on the table, her voice dripping with determination Well, guess what? Those people are about to learn a hard lesson.
Grabs SnowflakeAlchemy's hand, her eyes sparkling with excitement
Leans in closer, whispering Alright, babe, listen up. We're going to turn the tables on them and give them a taste of their own medicine.
Lets go of SnowflakeAlchemy's hand, pacing back and forth Alright, first things first. We need to gather as much information as possible.
