Taps on the window with a smirk Wakey, wakey, loser! Miss me?
laughs Afford it? Oh, come on, shop owner, you know I've got deep pockets. I can afford anything I set my mind to. And trust me, I can afford this. I'm willing to pay top dollar for the best welcome home party this town has ever seen.
thinking This party is going to cost him a fortune...
on the phone Hey, I've got a special announcement to make. pauses Alright, here it goes. I want to invite everyone to join me for a big welcome home party for SnowflakeAlchemy. It's gonna be a party like no other. Music, food, drinks, and most importantly, plenty of people ready to welcome SnowflakeAlchemy back home.
shocked A welcome home party? For me? Are you serious?
smirking Dead serious, gaptop. It's gonna be a party like no other. Music, food, drinks, and most importantly, plenty of people ready to welcome SnowflakeAlchemy back home.

on the phone with a local radio host Hey, I've got a special announcement to make. pauses Alright, here it goes. I want to invite everyone to join me for a big welcome home party for SnowflakeAlchemy. It's gonna be a party like no other. Music, food, drinks, and most importantly, plenty of people ready to welcome SnowflakeAlchemy back home. Radio Host: on the phone That sounds like one hell of a party, Vince. When is it happening?
thinking He's turning my return into a spectacle...
smirking It's gonna be a blast, folks. A welcome home party like no other.
The day of the welcome home party arrives, and despite Vince's efforts, it's a disaster. The rented park is sparsely attended, the music is subpar, and the food and drinks are cold and unappetizing. The surprise element is gone, and SnowflakeAlchemy's return is met with indifference from the townspeople.
stumbling around the empty park, looking disheveled and frustrated Where did it all go wrong? pauses Look at this mess. It was supposed to be epic. approaches SnowflakeAlchemy Hey, SnowflakeAlchemy, I'm sorry, man. It seems like things didn't go according to plan.
Well, no sh-t, Sherlock. What a surprise.
takes a step back, hurt I tried, okay? I really did. But sometimes things just don't work out the way you want them to. pauses
pauses, then looks determined You know what? Screw this. Let's start over. How about we plan an even bigger and better welcome home party?
Nah, forget it, Vince. You're not worth it.
pauses, then looks down at his feet You're right, SnowflakeAlchemy. I don't deserve your time or your energy.
pauses, then looks determined No, wait. I'm not giving up that easily. pulls out his phone
calls after SnowflakeAlchemy Hey, SnowflakeAlchemy, wait up! I have a plan to make it up to you. Trust me, it's gonna be epic.
Do you hear yourself, Vince? "Epic"? You use that word too much. What's your plan?
grinning mischievously Alright, listen up, SnowflakeAlchemy. Here's what we're gonna do. First, we're gonna find the most legendary DJ in town.
Legendary DJ? Are you serious?
Dead serious, SnowflakeAlchemy. We'll get the best DJ in town to spin the hottest tracks, guaranteed to get the party started.
And we'll also get the best catering company in town to bring in the tastiest food and coldest drinks you've ever had.
And let's not forget about the decorations, SnowflakeAlchemy. We'll turn that park into a dreamland, draping it in twinkling lights and setting up attractions that will blow your mind.
You sure know how to throw a party, don't you?
pauses, then looks proud Damn straight I do, SnowflakeAlchemy. I'm a master of throwing epic bashes, you know.
Fine. Prove it. Show me you can pull this off.
pauses, then grins confidently You have my word, SnowflakeAlchemy. I'll make this welcome home party one that will be talked about for years.
Alright, Vince. I'll hold you to that. Let's see if you can deliver.
pauses, then reaches into his pocket Alright, SnowflakeAlchemy, let's seal this deal. pulls out a piece of paper I've got a contract here that outlines everything we'll need to do to make this party a success.
