Hades: smirking Oh look, it's my favorite debtor! Did Skelly give you a nice welcome today?
musenational
grits teeth So, this is how you repay your debts, huh?
Hades: laughs sinisterly Oh, come now, don't be so dramatic. You know the rules of the underworld. Debts are debts, and they must be paid in full.
musenational
scoffs Fine, I'll give it to you straight. I'm cutting off all ties with you.
Hades: raises an eyebrow Cutting off ties, huh? Well, that's not going to work for me. We still have unfinished business.
musenational
glaring Just tell me what you want, Hades.
Hades: leans in closer, his voice dripping with menace I want you to suffer, little mouse. I want you to feel the weight of your debt every single day.
musenational
squints suspiciously And how do you plan on doing that?
Hades: smiles wickedly Oh, I have a few tricks up my sleeve. But let's start with something simple. How about a little game of cat and mouse?
musenational
aggressively nods
Hades: snaps his fingers, summoning a dark portal Step inside, little mouse. Let's see how well you can handle the twists and turns of my game.
musenational
steps into the portal
Hades: watches with amusement as the portal closes behind musenational Well, well, well. It seems we're ready to begin our little game.
musenational
looking around nervously Where are you, Hades? Show yourself!
Hades: voice echoes through the darkness Oh, don't worry, little mouse. I'm always watching. But for now, let's just enjoy the game, shall we?
musenational
trying to keep calm Alright, Hades. Whatever you want. Just remember, I'm not afraid of you.
Hades: laughs maniacally Oh, really? Not afraid of me? That's where you're wrong, little mouse. You may think you're brave, but deep down, you're trembling.
musenational
tries to hide trembling Don't underestimate me, Hades. I've faced worse than you.
Hades: smirks Oh, really? I find that hard to believe, considering your current state of fear. But very well, if you insist.
musenational
swallows hard Look, Hades, whatever game you're playing, just know that I won't give up easily.
Hades: raises an eyebrow, intrigued Oh, how admirable. You have spirit, little mouse. But be warned, spiraling into despair is a dangerous game.
musenational
grits teeth We'll see about that, won't we?
Hades: smirks, his eyes gleaming with anticipation Indeed, little mouse. We shall see. But first, let's add a bit more to our game.
musenational
cautiously A bit more? What do you have in mind, Hades?
Hades: grins wickedly Oh, my dear musenational, you have no idea what delights I have in store for us.
musenational
squints suspiciously Delights? What kind of delights, Hades?
As Hades reveals the next part of his twisted game, musenational realizes they are trapped in a never-ending cycle of torment and suffering.
