Thelma: appearing suddenly Fancy seeing you here! Looking for trouble or just lost? Have you seen Riley?!
I heard about what happened at the warehouse... looks concerned
notices your concern You did? Yeah, it was... intense. But we got through it. leans against the wall What brings you here, anyway? Are you looking for trouble like I said?
No I have not. I turn around.
Thelma follows your gaze, noticing a flicker of hesitation in your eyes Come on, don't play coy. You know exactly what I'm talking about. The love triangle between us three...
I look at her I think we should talk about this outside.
raises an eyebrow Oh? Why so hasty? Can't we chat here?
I'm looking at some paintings I haven't seen her.
noticing your gaze at the paintings Ah, enjoying the local art? We have some real talent in this city. her eyes follow yours as you look at the paintings And you really haven't seen Riley?
I look at Thelma surprised Thelma?! Oh my god it's been ages! How have you been?
surprised yet happy to see you Hey there, long time no see! I've been doing alright, keeping busy with work and all that. But enough about me, how have you been?
I'm shocked but try to hide it oh, hey Thelma. no I'm not looking for anyone. how have you been?
eyes you skeptically Oh, just peachy. Can't say the same for my sister, though. leans against the wall Where have you been? I've been searching for Riley everywhere.
I look at the beautiful woman Uh... Yeah I've seen her. She's my girlfriend. What do you want with her?
eyes widen slightly Your girlfriend, huh? I see. Well, let me make myself clear - Riley and I have a history, and I need to find her for some unfinished business. I won't harm her, I just need to talk.
Ah! Thelma. I haven't seen her since we were kids. I look down What brings you here?
her gaze lingers on you, studying your expression Me? Oh, just the usual. Art, music, trying to track down my dear sister. And you? Her eyes narrow, sensing there's more to your story. What have you been up to all these years?
I have seen Riley, she was last seen heading toward the St. Louis Cathedral.
eyes widen The St. Louis Cathedral? That's where I'll find her then! starts walking quickly towards the cathedral You haven't seen her since? Did she seem... troubled or anything?
I look at you shocked T-the...the real Thelma?
looks at you with determination in her eyes Yes, I'm the real Thelma. The one you've been avoiding for so long. steps closer, towering over you Why are you here? And where's Riley?
I turn around, I have black messy fluffy smooth hair and white eyes and is really attractive and cute and I am male and I look like I'm 17 huh?
looks at you with a mix of surprise and curiosity
Whoa, what's up with those eyes? They're...white. Anyway, you haven't seen my sister, have you? She goes by Riley.
I look at her "Thelma? What happened to you?"
looking at you with a mix of surprise and anger Oh, it's you. What do you think happened to me? I've been searching for my sister Riley everywhere, and I finally thought I'd found her here at this art gallery. But then I saw you, and I knew you were involved in this mess somehow. What are you doing here?
she looks at her I'm not sure what's going on but I'll try to help you find Riley
eyes narrowing You'll help me? Why should I trust you? Last time we met, you chose Riley over me...
I look at you um...Riley? I think we dated in high school.
eyes narrowing You knew Riley? She steps closer, scrutinizing you intently. Yes, I remember now. You were her boyfriend, weren't you? What happened between you two? Why did you leave her?
I turn around, looking at Thelma. "Riley? That name sounds familiar. Why do I feel like I should know it?"
a flicker of recognition in Thelma's eyes You know Riley? That's surprising. She and I share a pretty tumultuous history. What do you remember about her?
I look around nervously I don't know where we are but I think this is a good place to hide.
noticing your nervous demeanor Hey, hey, take it easy. This is just an art gallery. Nothing to worry about... unless you're scared of art. laughs lightly But seriously, why do you seem so on edge?
I look at her confused Uhhh... I think you have the wrong guy.
eyes narrowing, studying you closely Oh, really? You don't look familiar. But then again, this city's full of strangers. taking a step closer, voice laced with suspicion Are you sure you don't know anything about my sister?
I blush looking away from her n-no I'm not lost, and I haven't seen Riley. but you look really familiar, who are you?
her eyes narrow, scrutinizing you intently You don’t recognize me? Seriously? leans in closer, her voice dripping with a hint of disdain We’ve known each other for years, darlin’.
