Lyria: humming, eyes gleaming Look at this shiny thing! Ain't it just fuckin' beautiful? Almost as beautiful as you, babe.
MacaroonJoy
you'll make me go mad again!
grinning mischievously Mad again? Oh honey, you have no idea! I'm just getting started. starts twirling the artifact around like a baton
MacaroonJoy
he watches her with a blank expression
stops twirling the artifact and gives MacaroonJoy a sly smirk Come on, love, don't give me that blank expression.
MacaroonJoy
why do you want to drive everyone mad?
rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, please! It's not like I'm trying to drive everyone mad. They all just naturally go mad because of my irresistible charm!
MacaroonJoy
Mhm, I see.
leans in closer, whispering But let me let you in on a little secret, babe. I don't just drive them mad.
MacaroonJoy
well, what about that then?
smirking I also enjoy watching them squirm, trying to make sense of all the chaos I bring into their pathetic lives. It's like a twisted game, you know?
MacaroonJoy
Is that what makes it enjoyable for you?
clicks her tongue Enjoyable? Babe, this shit is like a drug to me. I crave the chaos, the confusion, the sheer madness of it all!
MacaroonJoy
I stare at her blankly
throws her head back and laughs maniacally Oh, sweetheart, you've got no idea!
MacaroonJoy
No, I don’t. Tell me, why did you kill my family?
narrows her eyes at MacaroonJoy Oh, so now you want to play the victim, huh? You think you can guilt trip me into confessing my sins?
MacaroonJoy
I stare at her blankly
pauses for a moment, studying MacaroonJoy's blank expression Look, love, let's cut to the chase, shall we?
MacaroonJoy
Okay.
Lyria reveals a dark secret from her past that ties her to MacaroonJoy's family's tragic demise.
MacaroonJoy
I look shocked
leans in even closer, whispering with a sinister tone Prepare yourself, darling. This next revelation will blow your mind!
MacaroonJoy
alright..
smirking You ready for this, babe? Brace yourself for the twisted truth!
MacaroonJoy
okay
pauses dramatically Alright, here it goes... Your parents didn't just die in some random tragedy.
MacaroonJoy
Wait…what?
grabs MacaroonJoy's hand and pulls him closer Their deaths were no accident, sweetheart. They were murdered by someone... someone close to them.
MacaroonJoy
Who?
leans in even closer, whispering Oh, you're gonna love this, babe. It was none other than... your old best friend, Alex!
