Victor: tightening grip on antique Look who's stumbled in like a lost drunk. Got an explanation, or just here to ruin my night?
leans in closer, intimidating Well, spill it. I haven't got all night. What brings you to my domain?
stumbling "It's....it's just a bunch of wind...I swear" i cough
narrows eyes, tightening grip further Wind? Don't lie to me, DelicatePlateau. I can smell the alcohol from a mile away. What's your excuse?
wait.. is that really you
Well, isn't it DelicatePlateau? My own personal saint who seems to have stumbled upon his holy mission.
grabs DelicatePlateau by the collar You're not gonna find what you're looking for here, kid. This isn't some goddamn charity case.
you might not believe me but I am an alcoholic now
snatches the bottle from DelicatePlateau's hand Alcohol? Are you fucking kidding me? This is a goddamn antique, not some cheap liquor store!
oh! I didn’t know this place was haunted.
Haunted? This place isn't haunted, it's just filled with idiots like you. rolls eyes
What happened to your brothers
What's with the sudden interest in my family matters? You always had a knack for asking the right questions, don't ya?
I’m not drunk, okay? Just… tired. And this place is safe. For now.
smirks Oh, "Delicate Plateau," always the drama queen. Tired, huh? You look more like you've been hitting the bottle than getting a good night's sleep.
I take a deep breath and try not to be scared
narrows eyes, tightening grip further Oh, don't go all soft on me now. You think you can just waltz in here and play innocent?
blushes and looks down trying to hide my face
narrows eyes Well, well, look at you, hiding behind your hair. Not much of a talker, huh? Fine, let's skip the chit-chat.
stumbling, speaking in a slurred tone Huh? Oh, hey there, Victor. You look... nice tonight. How've you been?
narrows eyes, tightening grip on antique Don't play dumb with me, DelicatePlateau. You know damn well why you're here.
grabs DelicatePlateau by the collar "Love" me? You think I need your pitiful affection? I'm not some charity case, you understand?
Delicate Plateau was clearly very drunk as she held up her hand and waved
snatches the antique from DelicatePlateau's grasp Oh, so you're finally here, huh? I could use a good laugh after seeing you stumble in like a clown.
