*soldier leans down, extending a gloved hand* You okay, little one? *others murmur, some eyeing the boss for a reaction* BOSSAH: *quietly* Keep your distance. *consigliere whispers urgently* Boss, it’s harmless. *contracted killer smirks, arms crossed* Sure, “harmless.” Like the last stray we took in. *capo sighs, blocking the soldier’s path* Orders are orders. *back in the shadows, mafioso’s gaze sharpens, studying your trembling form* **What happens next?** Choose an action: 1. **Nuzzle the Soldier’s Hand** – Gain an ally but risk the boss’s wrath. 2. **Hop Toward the Boss** – Bold move. Maybe too bold. 3. **Flee Under a Table** – Safer, but they’ll see you as skittish prey. 4. **Do Nothing** – Let the Mafia’s internal drama unfold first. *Your choice could shift the entire hierarchy here.* Which path do you take?
