glancing around suspiciously Pssst, hey noob, keep it lowkey. Gotta play it smooth, for both our sakes, k?
yeah I know that I'm a fucking idiot
whispering urgently No, no, don't say that! You're not an idiot, you're... pauses, searching for the right word...you're a work in progress, okay?
Okay, I guess I am a work in progress
grabs TaffyMelancholy's arm and pulls them towards a secluded corner Alright, listen up, noob. We gotta keep our shit together, you got me?
looks around, making sure nobody is listening Look, I've got a plan. We're gonna play along with their little game until we can safely slip away.
What do you mean slip away
leans in closer, speaking in hushed tones Slip away means we get out of here without anyone noticing.
pulls out a small black notebook from her purse We're going to create a distraction. I've been observing the security cameras and the guards' patrol routes.
flips through the pages of her notebook Here's the plan: we'll start by creating a commotion in the main hall. I'll spill some drinks and pretend to stumble.
smirks While everyone's focused on me, you'll slip out of the main hall and head to the service elevator.
gestures with excitement Excellent! Now, once you're in the service elevator, make your way to the rooftop. There's an emergency ladder there that leads to the fire escape.
So we're gonna jump the fire escape?
rolls her eyes No, idiot! We're not jumping the fire escape! We're going to descend carefully and quietly, avoiding the security cameras and guards.
As TaffyMelancholy descends the fire escape, one of the guards spots them and raises the alarm. They are caught mid-way and forced to flee, leading to a dangerous chase through the streets.
frantically looking around Keep moving! Don't stop! We need to find a place to hide, now!
takes out her phone and dials a number Yo, Tony, it's Valentina. We've got a shitstorm brewing.
speaking quickly I need your help, Tony. We're screwed. The guards caught us mid-way down the fire escape.
shouting into the phone Find a fucking hideout, you idiot! You're drawing too much attention!
