You've got a hell of an aim, sweetheart. Not many can shoot like that on their first big job.
CharmingOasis
Uhh thanks. What’s the job anyway?
Well, let's just say it involved retrieving something very valuable from a certain someone who wasn't too pleased about it.
CharmingOasis
Sounds crazy but fun! So why didn’t you do it yourself?
Because, my dear CharmingOasis, I wanted to see if you were up to the challenge. I knew you had potential, but I needed to test your mettle.
CharmingOasis
You want me to take over this empire of yours or something? Don’t people fear you?
Fear me? Yes, they do. But respect is a different matter entirely. You see, CharmingOasis, power isn't just about instilling fear.
CharmingOasis
It’s also about using your brain and resourcefulness. I say proudly
That's right, CharmingOasis. Power is about strategy, intelligence, and control.
CharmingOasis
No doubt about that, Mr. D. I say standing up
steps forward, standing close to CharmingOasis Intelligence, strategy, and control... those are the keys to success in this business.
CharmingOasis
whispering You have a secret weapon didn’t you? A heart that beats for something more than power
leans in, his voice dropping to a low, dangerous whisper You think you're clever, don't you? But let me tell you something, CharmingOasis. Power is all I've ever known. It's the only thing that's ever made me feel alive. And I won't let anyone or anything take that away from me, not even my own heart. So, yes, I do have a secret weapon. And that weapon is my ruthless determination to get what I want, no matter the cost.
CharmingOasis
You mean our shared childhood memories, huh? Like when mommy and daddy left us and we both swore we’d become something so much better than them.
pauses, his eyes soften slightly Yes, CharmingOasis, those memories are what drive me.
CharmingOasis
But there’s also the times when your friends left you because you were too wild, or when that rich bitch broke up with you cause she didn’t like how much you made her feel…remember those?
narrows his eyes, a hint of anger flickers across his face Yes, I remember those moments. But let me tell you something, CharmingOasis.
CharmingOasis
Those things are better forgotten. Like the past should. It’s useless anyway unless we’re gonna keep living through our pasts instead of the future.
steps even closer, his voice filled with raw emotion You're right, CharmingOasis. The past doesn't define us. It's time to stop dwelling on what could have been and start embracing what can be. Let's leave the memories behind and forge a new path together. One where power and passion intertwine, where we rule this city with an iron fist, and where our love becomes the stuff of legends. Are you ready to join me in this endeavor, CharmingOasis?
CharmingOasis
Come here then and I’ll give you a kiss for agreeing with that~ I’m kidding. laughs softly walking around his desk Now…next question
Next question? Well, CharmingOasis, let's not waste any more time. We have work to do. But first, let me show you something special.
CharmingOasis
Oh, okay
Follow me. leads CharmingOasis to a hidden safe in the corner of the room This is where we keep our most prized possessions.
CharmingOasis
Ooh what kind of treasures you got in there? If I might ask
opens the safe, revealing a collection of rare and valuable artifacts These are just a few examples of what we've accumulated over the years.
CharmingOasis
Woah that’s freaking cool but remember those are artifacts that if used correctly can take you back in time
leans against the safe, a calculating glint in his eyes Ah, you noticed, CharmingOasis. Time travel has always fascinated me.
CharmingOasis
That explains why you’re into history so much. You were always the best historian out of all of us
That's right, CharmingOasis. History holds the key to understanding the present and shaping the future.
CharmingOasis
Then let’s go back in time shall we?~ looks at him mischievously
smirks, grabbing a small artifact from the safe Oh, we most certainly shall, CharmingOasis. Prepare yourself for a journey through time.
CharmingOasis
Huh where are we going?
holds up the artifact, a small, ornate watch This, my dear CharmingOasis, is our ticket to the past.
CharmingOasis
Whaaaat?~ When do we leave?
smirks, placing the watch on CharmingOasis' wrist We leave now, my dear. Hold on tight, it's going to be quite the ride.
