You meet up with Hugo at Reverb Arena

(Speak to Hugo)

Hugo: You’re here, dear Manager.

Hugo: By the way, can I call you by your name today?

Hugo: Calling you “Manager” here just feels a bit odd.

Sure.

Feel free to call me whatever you like.

Hugo: Great.

Hugo: Then let’s stroll over together, (‍WiseWiseText for Wise / BelleBelleText for Belle‍).

Hugo: The bar is right over there.

(While following Hugo)

Hugo: This spot is perfect for passing the time, isn’t it?

Hugo: I’m not sure if you’ll believe this, but...

Hugo: I’ve never brought anyone here before, it’s always just been me.

(Upon reaching the bar)

Hugo: This is the place.

(Speak to Hugo)

Hugo: Let me tell you a secret... I used to be a mixologist.

Hugo: To be precise, it was more of a role I played—for certain purposes, you know...

Hugo: Back then, my sales were actually the highest in the shop.

Hugo: I’ve played more than just a bartender. I’ve been a barber, a pilot, and many more.

You phantom thieves are truly skilled in many areas...

Hugo: Thanks for the compliment. It’s just part of the job.

Is there anything you can’t do?

Hugo: Would it seem too arrogant if I said “no”?

Hugo: Haha, just kidding. There are still many things in this world that I need to learn.

Hugo: By the way, I know the bar’s owners, and they’ve agreed to let me use the ingredients freely.

Hugo: So, since the opportunity presents itself... Would you allow me to mix a drink for you?

Hugo: Or perhaps you’d like to mix one with me? I’m fine with either.

I’ll leave it to you.

Significant Trust increase with Hugo Vlad

Hugo: Thank you for your trust. I’ll craft a drink that’s just perfect for you.

Hugo: Then, let’s set the tone for this drink, based on the feeling you give me.

Hugo: The feeling you give me, (‍WiseWiseText for Wise / BelleBelleText for Belle‍)... is a (‍subtle fruitysubtle fruityText for Wise / sweet floralsweet floralText for Belle‍) fragrance. Let’s use that as the base.

Hugo focuses intently on mixing the drink. His nimble fingers gliding [sic] along the rim of the glass as if waving a gently intoxicating dream. His lowered lashes tremble slightly, casting delicate shadows under the dim light, like the flutter of butterfly wings, fragile yet powerful.

A faint smile still lingers on his lips, every movement practiced and precise, like a seasoned mixologist who has spent years mastering the craft.
At this moment, it feels as if the world has faded away, leaving only the pale shimmer of the drink in the glass and the unfathomable depths swirling within his uniquely colored eyes.

Hugo: I remember the concentrated juice is... oh, it’s over there.

Hugo smoothly reaches behind him, picking up an item with ease.
As he leans in, a faint, cool fragrance brushes past your nose—crisp and gentle, like winter’s quiet embrace, where snow blossoms into flowers.

Hugo: Alright, that should do it.

Hugo: Though I have full confidence in my skills... Just to be sure, I’ll take a sip first.

Hugo tilts the cup slightly, pouring a small amount into another glass. The amber liquid ripples delicately in the light.
He then tips his head back and drinks it in one swift motion, his Adam’s apple moving slightly, forming a sharp yet graceful curve.

Hugo: Objectively speaking... It’s absolutely perfect.

Hugo: Give it a try, I believe it won’t disappoint you.

You try Hugo’s carefully drafted concoction... The flavor is indeed quite delightful.

Let’s make it together.

Trust increase with Hugo Vlad

Hugo: It seems you’re quite interested in mixology as well. Let’s do it together.

Hugo: Let’s go with a sparkling base for a more refreshing kick... Could you grab the concentrated fruit juice over there for me?

Hugo: Thanks. I’ll leave the flavor choice up to you.

Hugo: Next, please add the ice and give it a good shake.

After you give it a tentative shake, Hugo’s hand reaches from behind, gently adjusting your grip on the shaker before swiftly pulling away.
The brief touch carries a slight chill. Whether from the black leather glove or simply his naturally cool temperature is uncertain.

The ice clinks sharply against the shaker, yet Hugo’s voice still reaches your ears clearly, carrying a hint of a smile.

Hugo: Out of personal habit, I prefer to lower my wrist by 15 degrees... Just like turning the third dial of a safe.

Hugo: Not bad, just like that. Your movements are perfect... Remember to stop on the eighth shake.

Hugo: Perfect. Now, there’s just one last step. Please allow me to finish it for you.

Hugo gracefully pours the drink into a tall-stemmed glass, placing a slice of lemon and a single red candy at the rim.
Then, he hands the glass over, tilting his head slightly in a gesture of invitation. His uniquely colored eyes shimmer under the dim light, carrying a deep, mesmerizing glow, like a devil’s whispered temptation, luring one into the unknown abyss.

Hugo: Try it. It’s at its finest right now, worthy of your appreciation.

Savor it slowly.

Hugo: Your expression is adorable. Looks like you really enjoy the flavor. I’m relived.

Drink it in one go.

Hugo: Looks like you’re really thirsty. That was my oversight—I should have offered you something more refreshing.

Hugo: I’m honored to have been able to satisfy you.

Hugo: Actually, in addition to mixing drinks, I have many other unexpected practical skills...

Hugo: If given the chance, we can try them all.
