text: The first thing I'm posting here, a little made-up dialogue I wrote. please tell me what you thought. “Well? What are you waiting for? You came so far, here I am, kill me.” “I didn’t come here to kill today; I came to stop what you are doing.” “Stop me? I’m not doing anything.” “Then who is trying to overthrow my father?” “Not me, as you can see, I am right here, it’s your people at gathering at the castle’s gates.” “Fueled by your ideas!” “I can’t take all the credit, I just said what everyone was thinking.” “Lies! My father is a good man, he is a worthy king.” “I don’t know your father, I never said he was evil. All I know is what he has done to us.” “Building libraries? Expanding this kingdom? Peace with our neighbors?” “Raising our taxes! Sending our friends and family to death in his name! more useless feast!” “My father is doing the best for this kingdom!” “Your father has blinded you.” “Hatred blinded you.” “Is that so? As we both see I am not the only one thinking your father should be dethroned “ “Stop this madness at once!” “Or else?” “They will die, you will die, your little coup attempt will fail.” “They might die, I may die, that is correct, I am very aware of this.” “So, you’ll stop them?” “No” “Why?” “Because this will prove my point.” “Explain yourself.” “The king is cruel.” “My father is a good man.” ”He’ll kill thousands of people to keep his seat, is that what a kind person will do?” “Will a good person gather thousands for a suicide mission?” “I never claimed to be kind, I’m starting what needs to be done.” “Starting?” “Yes, of course, I don’t expect to be the new king.” “Why?” “I am starting a coup against a tyrant; I will either die by your sword or the executioner’s axe.” “Then why doing all this?” “Because that’s what right.” “This attempt will die tonight, with you and the rest of the peasants.” “Nope” “How can you be so sure?” “These ideas are spread all around the kingdom, we are the first wave.” “And the last” “After the news will spread, about how the king massacred all those people, you think everyone will stay quiet?” “If they want to stay alive, yes.” “Like father like son” “I am proud to be like my father.” “You are proud to keep the citizens silent out of fear.” “Is that what you think about my father?” “It’s the truth.” “What my father has done to you?” “Personally, nothing” “Then why do you hate him so much?” “Same reasons as everyone.” “You’re all ungrateful.” “Have you lived one day as a peasant?” “Have you been burdened with the commitments of a king?” “No, but a king must see his people before himself.” “Why do you think he sent me here to stop you then?” “To stay alive and in his throne.” “To keep all these people alive!” “So he sent you?” “Yes, to negotiate. but you won’t listen.” “It’s hard to negotiate when there’s a sword to my neck.” “Same goes for me.
