How do I pass a variable to a template file?

I have a template that defines a module that builds a paragraph.

This paragraph uses a field reference to link another type of content.

In my main paragraph I call this reference content with

{{ content.field_hero_slider_item_reference }} to display it.

This works, but I would like to be able to pass variables to it so that I can style the individual elements inside the reference with attributes from another field, say "settings".

I tried:

{% include with {'items': content.field_hero_slider_item_reference, 'attrs': attrs} %}

Unfortunately, there's something that breaks the display mechanism of {{ }}, albeit if I call dsm or kint on any of these variables (attrs or items) I can see exactly what I would need.

Any help or suggestion is appreciated

I'm not sure if this has enough focus or details, but reference property is handled by the configured field formatter on that entity view display.

^ this. Any other peripheral variables would be in a preprocess hook.

You can dump a variable in twig with `{{ dump(variable) }}`
