Onyx & Mefisto
Mefisto
So, Onyx, ever thought about how a perfectly timed lie can be the most powerful tool in a negotiation?
Onyx
A lie that hits the mark can quiet the room faster than any argument.
Mefisto
Right, darling, a well‑placed fib is the velvet rope that lets you slide right over the objections. It silences, it seduces, it leaves them begging for more. That's the game.
Onyx
A precise falsehood can lock them in place, but it also carries risk. Stay sharp.
Mefisto
Indeed, the trick is to make the falsehood so clean it feels inevitable, then have a backup that keeps the pressure on while your enemies are too busy believing you to see the flaw.
Onyx
Clean lies are good, but always have a plan for when the truth shows up. Stay ahead.
Mefisto
Absolutely, a backup plan is the safety net for any good bluff—if the truth slips, I pivot, adjust the narrative, and keep the advantage firmly in my hands.
Onyx
Keep the backup tight, but remember the best lie is the one you never need to repeat. Stay silent when the moment hits.
Mefisto
Exactly, silence after the perfect lie is the sweetest revenge. Keep the backup ready, but let the truth stay buried.
