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.]

"I can be gentle!"

"Gentle as a giant with noxious gas!" John responded. "You have hands of bricks. I FAKED IT SIXTEEN TIMES!"

Katara stared. And then burst into tears.

"YOU TOLD ME YOU LOVED ME!"

Dawn glared at John, then went to go pat Katara on the shoulder. "I'm sure he loves you, mama, but he doesn't know what he's saying. The evil demon milk has him in its grasp and won't let go."

"Your mother used to be a man!" That was a complete lie but he didn't like to lose.

Katara wrenched the shovel away from Dawn and ran towards John, swinging it as she went. "Husband! I have tolerated your lies and your milky porn addiction long enough!"

John yelped and took off running. Calling out over his shoulder, he said, "I knew I should've given you more children! You're always nice and gentle when you're pregnant!"

Re: Act III [Cast]

[southernbender.livejournal.com]

"How do you know I'm not pregnant now?" Katara asked, swinging the shovel more fiercely.

Re: Act III [Cast]

"Because we've not done the deed in nearly a month!" John said. "I'm good but not that good. And my boys can't fly."

Katara stopped to count on her fingers. "Twenty-six days. Ever since we sold that damn cow."

Re: Act III [Cast]

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Oh, you promised!" Dawn whined and pouted, because she was very method that way, yes. "No more! It would have been cheaper to keep the cow."

Re: Act III [Cast]

[southernbender.livejournal.com]

"Are you saying you'd rather have a cow than a new little sister or brother?" Katara asked, shocked.

Re: Act III [Cast]

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"Yes."

Re: Act III [Cast]

[southernbender.livejournal.com]

Katara hefted the shovel again. "WELL YOU CAN'T!"

Re: Act III [Cast]

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

"WHOA!" Dawn stumbled away from the scary little waterbender and landed on her backside again, "I DIDN'T DO IT! BLAME DAD! CHILD ABUSE! I'VE COME TO SEE THE VIOLENCE INHERENT IN THE SYSTEM!"

Re: Act III [Cast]

[whitedeathpod.livejournal.com]

"Go wifey go!" John cheered his maniac of a wife on, yes.

Re: Act III [Cast]

[southernbender.livejournal.com]

Katara did a weird beam/glare at John. "I DO BLAME YOU."
