Wrote up a quick exchange between Dante and Macbeth in the aftermath of the war with Nehushtan. The first line of dialogue is from Dante, the second from Macbeth, and so on. Dante is odd, Macbeth is even. I didn't want to give away facial expressions, speech patterns or thoughts to up the intrigue, but these are the words as I imagine them. Not sure if this can count towards the story due by the end of August, but if the story I'm planning for Dante gets pushed back (as a part of his rework- story itself is meant to be his new demo), well- it's something.
"Doin' okay there, doc?"
"I'm fine. Be better if you'd saved me some morphine."
"Funny. I was about to say you look glassed over enough as is."
"Funny. How are the others?"
"Heard from everyone but Ol' Abby. And he's gotten himself out of worse situations than this. We'll be alright. With your help."
"Nehushtan thanks you for your service, Dante. As do I."
"Yeah well, that's what I'm here for, ain't it? Helping you get us into trouble?"
"Aye. And pulling us out with the prize. Manny tell you anything we can use?"
"That he's as clueless as we are. But he's itching for a fight. Whatever's been pulling our strings lately, you can bet your ass they're pulling his too. And he knows it. But that one's no puppet. He's got a hold of those strings of his and you can bet he'll be the one strangling the life out of you in the end."
"A man of your own heart, then?"
"Funny."
