Pirouette's only reason for not shreiking like a little girl was the fact that she was afraid she would be heard out in the audience. But as it stood, she wasn't terribly fond of being held up by the shirt, either. This ... this ingrate had the nerve to threaten HER? And on top of it all, she was wrinkling her costume!
Her agent would be hearing about this!

"I veel know my lines for my cue, I assure you." She pulled away and smoothed out her shirt. "I 'ave been acting for a very long time. I know vhat I am dooink."

I dunnae think ye have a clue, lass. Why not pick up what's left of me script and then ye can--

"Shush, yuu."

Quite alright. Happens to everyone now and again.

She's not going to know what to do is she?

No.

Poor Thane.

You, lass, are an idiot. There's no way ye can go onstage without even knowing what the show is, and expect to go offstage again without making an arse out of... ME!

I, the great Pirouette, know what I am doing!

.... Do you want me to feed ye me lines, then?

Hamlet spies her his cast mates behind the backstage. Letting out a giggle, he skips over to where they are.

"You guys ready for the next bit? I'm kinda nervous."

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[sea-incarnadine.livejournal.com]

Fairy Pirouette gave Hamlet a pat on the head and a proud smile.

"I alvays know vhat I am dooink!" she said with a nod of her head.

Bullshi-

"There is no need to be nervous, not with me onstage vith you!"

Because I'll be feeding ye your lines. Some star.

"Pippi" rolls her eyes.

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[ihatedenmark.livejournal.com]

Hamlet looks suitably impressed.

"Wow, you must be really good. I've just been getting the lines from him--" She points to his head. "-- 'cause he's learned 'em all. Did you know I picked a prince for my host? Isn't that romantic? I bet he's got a castle and a ballroom and sweeps pretty princesses off their feet and everything!"

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"How nice for you." she said dryly...

"He is rather handsome though."

Hmm, maybe it isn't a total wash.

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[sea-incarnadine.livejournal.com]

"Oui, oui, 'ee ees quite impressive. The von zat I took seems to seenk zat 'ee ees some sort of king."

Somewhere in the back of his own head, Macbeth really wanted to kick himself in the shin for that one.

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

I'm a pirate!

Fairy Adella sighed.

"Mine's a... Pirate."

As was possibly evident by the skull and cross-bones all over the sheer lacy shrug she wore over a leather corset.

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[ihatedenmark.livejournal.com]

"Oooh, a pirate. Like with swords and ships and pretty hair and stuff?"

He sighs.

"I wish I got to wear a pretty dress like yours. Then I could twirl and be all sparkly!"

Somewhere deep down in his mind, Hamlet adds whatever is possessing him to his Things To Kill list.

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

She likes my hair?

Never mind. This is a wash.

Huh?

"Yes. That is a shame..."

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[sea-incarnadine.livejournal.com]

"I must agree. Zese costumes, zey are terrible! Look at vhat I am wearink!"

This is how I always dress, woman!

"Terrible!"

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"Perhaps it would have worked better if you had not possessed a boy."

I would I also had not selected a whelp of a girl still wet behind the ears...

Hey, I didn't pick you either lady.

Quiet you.

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[sea-incarnadine.livejournal.com]

Pirouette sniffed indignantly.

"Zis one vas all zat vas left vhen I got here."

Macbeth was also quite insulted by this.

Ye posessed me because I was the last option!?

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"Well you certainly weren't late because you were studying your script..."

You're a very angry person.

And YOU are a very annoying girl.

... That's the best you can come up with?

BE QUIET!

"Oh thtep off on the acthent," Daf'fi. "It'th not thexy and it doth nothing for you. Damn thith thtupid mortal and hith damn acthent!"

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[sea-incarnadine.livejournal.com]

Pirouette just smirked.

"And our own accent, eet ees supposed to be flattering, zen?"

He has... a lisp?

Oui.

We what?

... Yes.

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[cyclopeanmerc.livejournal.com]

"Look, I've got a human body that hath a French acthent and my own damn thpeech impediment. Don't go making any thmart remakth!"

_{[[OOC: I don't know if you've ever interacted with Pip, but he's actually French and has the accent to boot. So he's speaking with both Pip's normal French accent and the fairy's speech impediment.]]}

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[sea-incarnadine.livejournal.com]

"You should 'ave thought of zat before making your own 'thmart' remarks, you know."

Fairy Pirouette was grinning from ear to ear.

Macbeth... mostly just didn't get it.

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[ihatedenmark.livejournal.com]

"I wanted a girl with a pretty frilly dress, but all of 'rm were taken by the time I got here. I wonder if I could still but a skirt on this one?"

At least I got a price though! I wonder if he'll sing me a song and take me back to his castle?

I assure you, I am not that sort of royalty. I am far more likely to stab than sing.

Teehee, he's cute.

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

"Don't even think about it little one! I'm supposed to be marrying this one and I don't want him in a skirt..."

She looked to MacBeth to Hamlet and back again.

Is MacB wearing a kilt? Kilts are sexy... Maybe you two should trade?

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[sea-incarnadine.livejournal.com]

Pirouette stood around trying to look like she knew what she was doing.

No, he isn't... and even if he was, trading would involve a certain amount of naked Macbeth-ness that would just be... uh... disturbing? for poor Primadonna Pirouette. But man, I have to get him a kilt sometime. Mmm. Kilts are so sexy.

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[strongestgirl.livejournal.com]

Well, you'd get Hamlet's pants so not entirely naked but yes I see what you mean... Yes... Kilts=sexy

"Is this your incredible acting skill at work Pirouette?"

Re: BACKSTAGE: DURING PRODUCTION

[sea-incarnadine.livejournal.com]

"Actink? Zees ees not actink, eithair! Zees is me being naturally suave!"

Right. Suave.

But then... he could be in costume, couldn't he? There could be a kilt in wardrobe, couldn't there be? Aw, heck. I want to put Hamlet into a kilt. Hamlet, can we put you into a kilt?
