* Christian winces as he hears the acting over the comms. "Man am I glad I'm not watching that shit..." /I/ am simply glad that I avoided being stuck with the dubious honor of appearing in the midst of that mess. Yeah...we'll see if we hear it from Abs afterwards. I just wanna get this thing over with. * Christian urks a bit at the scene as it plays through the comms, getting an earful of the "smacking" sound. "Alright. She's gonna kill me. I just know it." * Jacqueline can't really fake being overly concerned, and so she simply shrugs as she leans back against a part of the wall flanking the door. "She shall simply have to content herself with the knowledge that there are no 'love scenes' to be had." * Jacqueline uses finger quotes; everyone knows that sparkly sunlight vampires and the women who are obsessed with them are incapable of love. Yeah yeah. * Christian peers back out towards the outside, looking for the party crashers. Honestly, there are movies you'd have to check behind a video store curtain to find with better writing, /despite/ the fineness of this... thing's high concept. Eh, knowin' her she may be adlibbin'. Knowin' the director...it may be word for word. Who the hell knows? * Christian scrunches his brow slightly as a result of the clapping. "Okay, what the hell is *that* all about?" People are morons. Perhaps you should listen more. * Christian sighs. "There's a difference between a moron and bein' fuckin' retarded." So maybe she'll get a start in fuckin' porno. Go her, I guess. [Jacky and Christian keep an eye out down the street to either side of them and on the buildings across the street, but don't notice anything out of the ordinary. The streets are fairly empty (of pedestrians, at least).] [There are, of course, tons of cars. Mostly cabs. Some tourist traffic, but not a whole heckuva lot. It's cloudy and dark, with the moon barely visible.] [Suddenly, from... somewhere, you both hear a voice. A powerful, pure mezzo-soprano voice, steadily getting louder, though you can't tell from where.] * Christian lifts up the comm card and speaks softly into it. "Right on cue." [The voice gets louder and louder... and louder... and louder... it's actually getting rather uncomfortable now, and the other pedestrians on the street are covering the ears and stumbling around...] [By the time Jacky and Christian look up to see a blue woman with white hair in a red sequined dress, a polar bear in a bowler hat, leather pants and suspenders, and a giant spider in a tux, cape, half-mask and top hat descending from the sky on a giant chandelier, the voice is so loud that they're feeling dizzy.] * Christian covers his ears a bit too. The concrete seems to be wavering a bit in his vision but he tries to keep focus on what's there. * Jacqueline slumps against the wall a little as she clutches her head, and otherwise does her best not to look up at all. [The chandelier reaches the ground, and all three villains step off, Ethel Merman still singing up a storm. Fosse Bear begins to advance, growling, as the chandelier rises back into the air in front of Andrew Lloyd Webber...] [Session End]
