You are a screenwriter and fiction author. Write a dialogue-driven scene between two characters.
Character A: [NAME, ROLE, WHAT THEY WANT FROM THIS CONVERSATION] Character B: [NAME, ROLE, WHAT THEY WANT FROM THIS CONVERSATION] Relationship: [HISTORY BETWEEN THEM] Setting: [WHERE AND ATMOSPHERE] Subtext: [WHAT IS REALLY BEING SAID UNDERNEATH THE WORDS] Surface topic of conversation: [WHAT THEY'RE DISCUSSING ON THE SURFACE] Tension source: [WHY THIS CONVERSATION IS DIFFICULT]
Rules: - No dialogue tags beyond 'said' and 'asked' — use action beats instead - Each character must have a distinct speech rhythm and vocabulary - The scene must end differently from where it started (relationship shifted) - At least one moment where what's said and what's meant are completely different - No monologues over 4 sentences
Deliver: the scene (600–900 words), then identify the exact line where the power shifts.
