The Boards, Thursday Evening (Petey Sci-Fi Rehearsal)

Feb 02, 2012 02:33

Ah, the first day of rehearsals at the Boards. It was just the sort of thing to make Jono show up looking... if not happy then at least slightly less grumpy than usual, with a stack of scripts in his arms complete with sheet music. It might have been the therapeutic smashing of creepy dolls with a crowbar that had him in such a good mood. Or maybe ( Read more... )

Who are available to answer your questions or address any concerns you might have about your roles. Once they ping in.

Jonothon (and his trusty crowbar) were both there, keeping an ear out for people singing off-key, and an eye out for any freakish little dolls that might have some terrible desire to be smashed to bits with a hefty chunk of solid iron.

Dolls were so much more eerie when they were peering around seating at you in a theatre. Don't judge him, damn it.

"Caramel macchiato," Kenzi said, holding out a cup. "..are we doing demolitions today?"

"Of a sort," Jono replied with a wry little smile as he accepted the coffee with the hand that wasn't firmly clutching his makeshift weapon. "It's another one of those days, I think."

If you'd been on the island for more than a semester, you'd probably know the type.

[I'm crashing now! I'll grab pings when I can through the day!]

"Ohhhh shit," Kenzi said in a low voice, looking around, shoulders hunching. "What am I looking for? Rickens? Spiders? It's not rats again, is it?"

[I figured! Sleep well!]

"Dolls," Jono replied, with a wrinkle of his nose just to show that he was well aware of how ridiculous that sounded. "A great bloody pack of the most hideous dolls I've ever seen."

You may laugh now, Kenzi.

Kenzi did grin, shoulders coming back down as she relaxed. "What, you found some old props? Freaked you out?"

"Ha."

That was how amused he was, Kenzi. That statement warranted one whole ha.

"I'll remember you said that, luv, if you end up running back for help any time through the day."

And then he would never let her live it down.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah."

He would get his chance. Sadly for Kenzi.

"Anything you want to be sure I do today, aside from look out for abandoned toys?"

"Keep an eye out for wayward actors, as well," Jono suggested. "There are a few here that are new to... pretty much anything and everything Petey Sci-Fi, so if anyone looks too dazed about anything, perhaps let me know?"

So far, everything he'd done pertaining to the show this week had more or less boiled down to hearing out people hating the roles they'd been given, and he was rather wishing there was alcohol in his coffee as opposed to caramel.

"Heh. Will do." Kenzi had been a little shocked the first time she saw the film, but hey. She'd been fourteen. "Rapunzel and I got started on the library already, and fixing up some of the old flats. We'll work on those. Maybe we can work some dolls onto the set," she added.

"Ha," Jonothon said again, because that bit seemed worth repeating. "I think I'd much rather we leave the dolls out of the show. Teddies, by all means. Stick one in Ecuadoria's room, that'll work nicely. Dolls... Off-limits as of today."

"Teddies. Teddies in teddies!" Kenzi saluted.

"It is, after all, how we tell whether or not Freddie is a no-good kid," Jonothon quipped. Blandly. "That, and something about a switchblade knife, but those don't do much good against the dolls, really."

Hence the crowbar.

"Need to get another switchblade..." Kenzi wrote this in sharpie on her hand, then grinned at Jonothan. "Right. Because it's not like they bleed. Obviously."

"Laugh it up," Jonothon sighed, shaking his head. "Just wait until you meet one, Sunbeam, and then we'll see how ridiculous I'm being right now."

He liked to think that he was being just the right amount of ridiculous.
