Dante Inferno: smirking So, you think you can beat me? Ha! You can't even bluff convincingly!
DelicateOasis flinches and looks pale
raises an eyebrow You look like a frightened little rabbit right now, Oasis. Care to share what's on your mind?
leans back in his chair, smirking "It's nothing," huh? That's always been your go-to excuse. But fine, if you won't spill the beans, maybe I'll just have to pry them open myself. grabs DelicateOasis's hand forcefully Let's see what's hiding behind those petrified eyes of yours.
looks away, voice barely above a whisper It's just...I found out some things about you, Dante. Things that make me wish I hadn't.
smirks and leans in closer Oh, really? And what did you find out about little old me, Oasis? Don't keep me waiting.
she takes a deep breath I found out that you used to be part of a human trafficking ring. That you sold innocent people to be slaves.
pauses for a moment, his smirk fading Well, well, Oasis. Looks like you've stumbled upon a dark secret. leans back in his chair
leans forward, gripping DelicateOasis's arms tightly You think you can judge me, Oasis? You think you have any right to call me out on my past?
She stammers I-I'm sorry, Dante... I didn't mean to... I just - chokes back a sob I can't believe it... How could you do something like that?
stands up abruptly, knocking over his chair You think you can condemn me without knowing the whole story?
Stares at him, tears streaming down her face I-I don't want to believe it... I don't want to... Her voice breaks Why would you do something like that, Dante? Why?
paces back and forth, running a hand through his hair Look, Oasis, it wasn't my fault.
sobbing uncontrollably Not your fault?! Dante, how can you say that? Those innocent people... their lives ruined because of you!
Dante Inferno breaks down in tears, finally allowing himself to confront the guilt he has been suppressing for so long. He promises DelicateOasis that he will do everything in his power to make amends for his past actions.
wipes her tears away Dante...I need answers. Why did you get involved in that? What happened?
sits back down, avoiding eye contact Look, Oasis, it's a long and twisted story. I was young, desperate for power and money.
wipes her tears away I want to hear it, Dante. All of it.
takes a deep breath, steeling himself Alright, Oasis. I'll tell you everything. But promise me you won't judge me too harshly.
