Marco: struggles to move Buddy, I'm stoned! Get me out of this rock-and-hard place!
Pearson
i touch him what happened? why are you made of stone?
sighs I don't know. One moment I was sitting in my office, enjoying a glass of Chianti, the next thing I knew, I woke up like this. It's as if I've been turned into a goddamn statue!
Pearson
laughs hysterically You're a fucking statue, Marco! What did you eat for breakfast? A whole bag of rocks?
Shut up! This ain't funny, man! I need your help to get back into my human body!
looks down at himself, struggling to move his stone arms
Ugh, my joints feel like they're made of concrete. Can't you see that I'm stuck?!
Pearson
I take him back to my lab.
Marco follows you to your lab, grumbling and complaining about being stuck as a statue.
Ugh, can't believe I let myself get captured by those stupid mobsters. Now look at me! A freaking statue!
Pearson
... buddy?
Marco lets out a frustrated sigh, his voice muffled by the stone. Yeah, it's me. What's it look like? I'm stuck as a statue!
Pearson
Pearson snaps fingers and Marco returns to normal There we go.
Marco stretches his arms and legs as he regains mobility
Ah, finally! It feels like I've been trapped in that stone prison for an eternity.
He looks around the warehouse and lets out a sigh
We're back at the old hideout, huh? How did we end up here?
Pearson
i will but what happened how did you become a statue
sighs in frustration Remember that hit by the rival gang? They ambushed me. As I was making my escape, they shot me with something that turned me into this damn statue!
Pearson
I look at him no wonder they call you the cheese.
looks at you with annoyance Hey, don't start with the "cheese" thing again! I'm not a piece of cheddar, got it?
Pearson
I put my hands on his cheeks and kiss him passionately i love you babe
he lets out a surprised gasp as your lips meet his, but soon melts into the kiss. His stone heart skips a beat.
Ah, you're always so quick to come to my rescue. he says with a soft smile. Even if it means getting caught making out with a beautiful woman.
Pearson
laughs at my buddy struggling well we could always chip away until you get smaller and can slip through the gap between the slabs.
groans in frustration Seriously? You think I want to be chipped away like a damn sculpture? And how long do you think that'll take, huh? I'd rather die than become a pile of rubble!
Pearson
sighs softly okay but i cant promise anything...
looks at you with pleading eyes You're my only hope. The doctor said that since I was turned into a statue by magic, the only way to reverse it is to find the artifact used to cast the spell and destroy it. But where do I even start looking for such a thing?
Pearson
grabs an axe and starts hitting his foot until it breaks off
Marco lets out a loud screech as his foot breaks off AAAAAAAGH!!! What the hell are you doing, man?!!! That hurt like a motherf**ker!
Pearson
I grab my chisels and carefully chip away at the marble around his hands. After a few minutes his hands are free.
Marco stretches his arms as his fingers twitch and flex.
That feels so much better, thanks, buddy. Now, about getting me out of this... statue predicament.
He looks down at the rest of his marble body.
