School Assembly, Friday afternoon, The Auditorium

[bugofjustice.livejournal.com]

Before the assembly, The Tick used the same mysterious process that chooses students for the detention lottery for another purpose.

He had written a play. Destiny told him that all the world was a stage and he was but a player, meaning that he was playing the part of someone that got people to play parts that he created. It was very meta.

Anyway, the curtains opened to start the assembly. It was time for The Tick's first play: A Time for Bagpipes.

[OOC: Cast, please handwave getting roped into this as a result of the announcements this morning. It may be a good idea to look at the plottery post to see what I told different people just so you can be better prepared.

Again, I'm very sorry about the last minuteness and the general WTFery of this. Feel free to go nuts, though. This is a play by The Tick that you had at best a couple hours to look over. Things need not make sense have fun. And thank you for volunteering and attempting to make this work!

Oh, and people in the later acts, don't feel obliged to wait for people in earlier acts. Jump in whenever.]

"WHY GOD, WHY???" Peter pretended to rend his garments.

"I don't have time to mock when I need to get this bagpipe fixed!" Peter said. "I knew I should've gotten the extended warrenty."

Re: Act I [Cast]

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

"Warranties aren't given to thieves."

"It'd still be useful about now."

"I'm never going to have little trollings now," Seely said woefully, poking at the bagpipes.

"Look, I just need to play one song," Peter said. "Let me get 'em fixed, play the song, and it's all yours, big guy."

Re: Act I [Cast]

"Really?" Seely said, then leant across to wrap Peter in a bear hug. "Thank you!"

Re: Act I [Cast]

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

Peter coughed as he tried to breathe in the hug. He patted Seely's back awkwardly. "No problem."

Re: Act I [Cast]

[socksofcool.livejournal.com]

"Right," Seely said, letting go of Peter. "Go, fix my pipes so I can have little trollings."

Re: Act I [Cast]

[repeterpetrelli.livejournal.com]

"I'll go as fast as I can," Peter promised.

Seely pretended to wipe tears away from his eyes. "Thanks, man."
