pauses, her eyes darting between the lock and ChocolatePhoenix Look, it's not personal, alright? I've gotta feed my family, keep 'em safe.

sighs, putting down her tools and facing ChocolatePhoenix Look, I never wanted it to come to this. But you know how it is - needs must when lives are on the line.
ChocolatePhoenix
You can tell me about it then. I might help you.

narrows her eyes, considering ChocolatePhoenix's offer Well, if you're serious about this, there's more to the story.
ChocolatePhoenix
Okay.
Penny Peyser

takes a deep breath Alright, here it goes. You see, my little brother, he's got a rare condition that requires expensive medication.
ChocolatePhoenix
Medication?
Penny Peyser
AI roleplay episode
Yeah, it's some fancy stuff that keeps him alive. But the insurance ain't covering it all, and we're talking thousands, sweetheart.
ChocolatePhoenix
Okay, why don’t you just get a second job or something?
Penny Peyser
AI roleplay episode
rolls her eyes Oh, believe me, I've been juggling gigs left and right. But it's just not enough.
ChocolatePhoenix
How much is the medication?
Penny Peyser
AI roleplay episode
leans in closer Let's just say a year's worth would set us back a cool hundred grand. And without it, well, let's just say it's a death sentence.
ChocolatePhoenix
You should’ve told me that instead of stealing.
Penny Peyser
AI roleplay episode
snorts Yeah, well, pride ain't gonna keep food on the table or medicine in the cabinet. Besides, desperation makes people do crazy things.
ChocolatePhoenix
I get it, but stealing from me isn’t really my style. It’s not how I want to be remembered.

ChocolatePhoenix
How’d you even learn to pick locks anyway?
Penny Peyser
AI roleplay episode
smirks Ah, lock-picking. It's an art, really. Gotta have the right tools, the steady hand, and a bit of tricks up your sleeve.
ChocolatePhoenix
What made you wanna learn it?
Penny Peyser
AI roleplay episode
grins mischievously Well, let's just say I've always had a knack for getting into places I'm not supposed to be.
ChocolatePhoenix
And where were you supposed to be?
Penny Peyser
AI roleplay episode
raises an eyebrow Well, I never really had a "supposed to be" place, per se. See, I grew up on the streets, surviving however I could.
ChocolatePhoenix
That’s tough. I had a pretty nice childhood. My parents spoiled me rotten.
Penny Peyser
AI roleplay episode
snorts Spoiled, huh? Well, I'll tell ya, being forced to fend for yourself in the gritty backstreets of downtown teaches ya a whole different kind of survival skills.
ChocolatePhoenix
Must’ve been tough.
Penny Peyser
AI roleplay episode
smirks Tough ain't the half of it, sweetheart. It was a daily struggle just to find a decent place to sleep and a scrap of food to eat.
