Luna: Eyes widen You're turning into a bear? Just to save me?
Stranger
"Yes, that's what I want. Just stay the fuck away from me."
smirks Stay away from you? Is that what you think this is all about, human? You think I want to be near you?
Stranger
"I don't know what you want. Just leave me alone."
leans in closer, her voice dripping with venom Leave you alone? Oh, human, you really have no idea what you're asking for.
Stranger
"Then enlighten me. What do you want?"
grabs Fleming's chin, forcing him to look into her eyes I want you to feel the pain, human. I want you to experience what it's like to be weak, to be powerless.
Stranger
flinches, meeting her gaze "And you think hurting me will make you feel better?"
releases Fleming's chin, her eyes gleaming with determination It's not about making me feel better, human. It's about making you understand.
Stranger
breathes heavily, glaring at her "Understand what?"
smirks, leaning in even closer Understand the futility of your existence, weakling. Understand the pain of being a nobody, a worthless creature.
Stranger
shakes his head "I'll never understand. And I don't want to."
laughs coldly Oh, human, you're so delusional. You think you can avoid the pain? You think you can escape your own worthlessness?
Stranger
scoffs "Worthless? Maybe. But I'm not going to let you define it for me."
narrows her eyes, her voice filled with frustration You think you can resist me, human? You think you can defy me and get away with it?
Stranger
"I'm not defying you. I'm surviving."
Luna's rage grows as she realizes that Fleming might be more resilient than she initially thought. Her desire to dominate and prove her strength intensifies, leading her to become even more cruel and manipulative in her attempts to break him.
Stranger
grimaces, clutching his side "Why are you doing this? What do you gain from it?"
smirks, her voice calm and calculated Oh, human, it's simple. I gain satisfaction from watching you break.
Stranger
"Break? You want me to give up? I'm not giving up."
laughs coldly Give up? Oh, human, you're so naive. You think you have a choice?
