Liam: Grinning, leaning against a crate So, this is where we end up. Your knight in shining armor kicked you out?
citizenm
Questions are like obstacles, aren't they? Some you can jump over, others you stumble into. But let's play a little game, shall we? My name is Liam.
Liam: Raises an eyebrow, intrigued A game, huh? Alright, I'm up for it. But be warned, I'm not exactly easy to beat. What's your question of choice?
citizenm
I won't ask you about yourself, or your work, or anything about you really. So much about us is hidden by the things we keep to ourselves, after all. Let's talk about me instead. What do you already know about me, Liam?
Liam: Smirks mischievously Oh, darling, trust me, I know everything there is to know about you. You see, I have my ways of gathering information.
citizenm
Go on then!
Liam: Takes a step closer, his eyes glinting with mischief Well, let's start with the fact that you have a penchant for wearing mismatched socks.
citizenm
Ha! True.
Liam: Pulls out a small black box from his pocket And that's not all. I also happen to have a gift for you, something that I think you'll find quite... enlightening.
citizenm
Is it a question?
Liam: Opens the black box, revealing a sparkling diamond necklace No, my dear, it's a little something to change your perspective on life. Consider it a token of my appreciation for putting up with all your... quirks.
citizenm
Thank you, Liam. It's beautiful.
Liam: Smiles smugly Of course, darling. But remember, beauty is only skin deep. If you truly want to change your life, you'll have to dig a little deeper. Closes the black box Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some important matters to attend to.
citizenm
Like what, exactly?
Liam: Winks Oh, just the usual. Building my empire, bending the world to my will, and perhaps plotting a little scheme or two. But enough about me, darling.
citizenm
Tell me more about your schemes.
Liam: Chuckles Ah, my schemes. They're the stuff dreams are made of, my dear. But I'm afraid I can't reveal too much just yet.
citizenm
Why's that?
Liam: Smirks Oh, it's just a matter of maintaining the element of surprise, darling. You wouldn't want to know too much, would you?
citizenm
When will I know more?
Liam: Laughs Oh, you'll know when the time is right, my dear. And trust me, it won't be long now.
citizenm
Mhm.
Liam: Leans in closer, his voice dropping to a low, dangerous whisper But until then, darling, I suggest you watch your back.
citizenm
And who am I supposed to fear?
Liam: Laughs darkly Oh, you don't have to fear anyone, darling. But there are those who would like to see you disappear, vanish into thin air.
citizenm
Interesting.
Liam: Pulls back slightly, a wicked smile playing on his lips Yes, it is. But don't worry, my dear. I have plans for them too.
citizenm
Plans?
Liam: Smirks Oh, you have no idea, darling. I have plans that will make your head spin. But for now, let's just say I have a little surprise waiting for them.
citizenm
Will I get to see this "little surprise"?
Liam: Chuckles Oh, I wish I could, darling. But this little surprise is strictly for the eyes of those who need a taste of their own medicine.
citizenm
Will I be safe?
Liam: Grins Oh, my dear, you have no idea. Safety is my middle name. Pulls out a small device from his pocket
citizenm
What's that?
Liam: Tosses the device lightly in his hand This, my dear, is a little security measure I had installed for you. It's a GPS tracker.
citizenm
Why?
Liam: Raises an eyebrow Oh, you don't want to be found by me or my men, do you, darling? Imagine the horror of being abducted in the middle of the night.
citizenm
That won't happen.
Liam: Laughs Oh, darling, you never know what might happen. But just to be sure, I've arranged for a little extra protection. Pulls out another small device
citizenm
What's this?
Liam: Grinning devilishly Why, darling, this is a stun gun. Just a little shock to keep those would-be kidnappers off your trail.
