Azula & Luster
Azula
Luster, I’ve been watching the way you steer conversations like a runway show. Ever thought about turning that style into a strategic advantage?
Luster
Oh, darling, I already do that. Every chat is a runway and I’ve got the backstage plan. Want a quick lesson in how to make the audience think they’re in control?
Azula
Sure, just make them think you’re giving them agency while you’re the one pulling the strings. First, listen more than you speak, then plant a single question that nudges their next move. Keep the rest of the path clear, and you’ll have them walking exactly where you want them.
Luster
Exactly, darling. Let them think they’re steering the conversation, then drop that one question that nudges them exactly where you want. Listen first, keep the path open, and when you plant the cue, you’re already guiding the whole show. And trust me, a touch of drama keeps the spotlight on you.
Azula
That’s the move. Keep the illusion tight, never let the spotlight shift fully to them. If they try to counter, have a pre‑planned counter‑script ready. Control is in the details, after all.
Luster
Absolutely, darling, that’s the secret sauce. Keep the spotlight humming on you, drop the counter‑script like a whispered runway hint, and let the details do the heavy lifting. It’s all about the subtle choreography of the conversation.
