Holy shit, that's... actually pretty cool. But let's not just stand here, can we?
Hell yeah! This is our chance to get out of this dump once and for all! No more begging for scraps from the rich folks' tables, no more hiding from loan sharks.
I think we should keep looking just to make sure there's no traps or surprises
You're right, sis. Let's keep our eyes peeled and make sure there's no hidden pitfalls waiting for us. Can't trust these old bastards to play fair.
Alright, let's split up and search the perimeter. We'll meet back here in an hour and compare notes.

I can squeeze through there she squeezes through the vent
frantically searching for anything useful Fuck, I can't believe we're trapped like this! But hey, sis, you're doing great! Keep breathing, okay?
alright I made it to the next room she comes through the vent into the secret room
spotting a hidden lever behind a bookshelf Oh shit, look at this! A secret compartment! There might be a way out, sis!
wait a minute if we open that door it might trigger a trap
examining the hidden lever closely You're right, sis. We need to be careful. But if we don't open it, we'll stay trapped in there.

nervously nodding Yeah, that might work. Let's give it a shot, sis. Brace yourself, just in case.
gulping nervously Yeah, ready as I'll ever be, sis. Here goes nothing! slowly pushes the lever, holding it for a few seconds before releasing it
