[ MISSION ORP ] Two Minutes to Midnight - EXIT PAGE 32!

[Miliardo Kason]

ACTING

Everything was a bit of a blur. Being dragged into make-up, a script shoved into his hands. Hell the Director had even stopped by to warn him not to ******** this up. (Apparently he had a habit of doing that?) He flipped through the papers whining the whole time which only earned him rolled eyes and tired looks. Everyone was tired of Andrew's inability to act and now he decided to have a mental breakdown? How cute.

So when he was finally sent on stage with a prop Sylvia, who for the record suddenly was top heavy as all hell and awkward to carry. He practically deer eyes at the camera lights.

So when the cameras finally did focus on him rather then looking impatient he looked completely lost. Sylvia was slung over his shoulder as he did a deadpan stare toward the camera before walking over to one of the doors. He was um suapposed to open one right? Or try?

He rattled the door handle a few times and continued to stand there for a long moment before looking towards Ceres, "W-what the hell are we doing? How are we um going to get out...." He turned back to the door tugging on it again.

That was when the door handle snapped right off in his ********: Andrew James
Background: A very, very, subpar actor brought onto This Is Halloween through strings pulled by Tamara Yates an old friend who knew the background extra was trying to make a bigger name for himself. Usually very calm and stoic, tends to read his lines with no emotion what so ever hence needing help to get on the show ))

HE'S SO BAD THE SCENE IS RUINED

Confused Gale was extremely confused.

And starting to wonder whether or not he had just hit his head really, really hard. The name on the back of his chair read Ian Brenowitz, and after fending off the cheerfully forceful makeup artist that had spent the past ten minutes dusting his cheeks with some sort of pale powder, Gale managed to weasel his way somewhere near the set to watch.

And hopefully try to figure out what the hell was even going on. Especially since just looking at...Caelius...and Doctor H...together....was making him feel somewhat...

...there wasn't even a word for it.  

[Bloodlust Dante]

He just watched, stared.

Leon watched as Ro just... broke the handle off the prop door. unbelieveable. He just watched like a gaping fish as the hunter just cursed on set. A set where line had to be read and acted out and

"Holy crap its my turn." he muttered softly to the other foolish hunter. and tried his best to get back into form.

He was going to have to kill that damn Fab for his choice in shirts. A turtleneck. HE HATED TURTLENECKS. still, here was an apparent scene to act out, as he tried to jiggle another prop doorknob before it fell right off the door with an audible clunk.


.....................

So he kicked the door and whirled around to the others. "Man , to hell with these doors! its like a sauna in here!" he said in a whiny tone and tried to make a show of pulling off the shirt with all the gusto of some cliche vampire/werewolf movie.

And got promptly stuck the the neck part of the turtleneck as he spent the last ten seconds wobbling around, trying to pull off the stubborn neck part from his own body. At least it left a decent scene of shirtless airbrushed abs for all to enjoy until he huffed in defeat and left the item crumpled along his neck and stared at Petra and hopefully away from the rest of the scene.

"Can't i just punch all the things down or just chainsaw them to death, Just take them all down and show them who's the real man here?"

and managed to wiggle one eyebrow. just one.

"DAMMIT LUKE, SOMEONE GET MORE BODY OIL ON THAT GUY STAT!"

ACTING

Luckily for Petra, she really had no problem acting as herself. Being married to Robert meant she was no stranger to theatre, dabbling and assisting him where ever it had been possible, which had granted her a certain level of experience. Not professional experience, by any means, but enough that she knew how to enunciate and deliver a line without it coming across as extremely cheesy. In addition, the fact that she could not give two shits about this, and therefore was not at all intimidated by the camera at all, helped considerably. The only reason she stepped onto the set at all was because of Robert; she wouldn't take this away from him, not again, and if that meant acting as herself to continue this charade, so be it. Even more luckily, between Roland and Leon, she had no problem finding motivation for her 'character' either.

Staring blankly first at Roland as he managed to pull off the door handle, then even more so at Leon, who apparently could fight monsters but not take off a goddamn shirt, Petra gave the two a slow, unwavering blink, just a hint of an incredulous tone behind her stare.

Motivation, check. While she considered her lines to be very out of character, they'd at least gotten her lack of expressiveness right. Then again, ANY lines would have been out of character; at least these were only moderately so. Still, considering her line didn't really make sense anymore with how Leon completely botched his, Petra decided to improv a bit. All things considered, she thought it was a decent improvement, both to her lines and to the overall flow of the scene.

"No."

Turning away from the train-wreck which was 'Klutz' and 'Big Head', she reached for one of the door handles Roland had not completely decimated, learning from the newbie's mistake and pulling on it with a fake amount of force. Pro Tip: always assume props are s**t. Lifting her eyes suddenly, as if struck by a sudden thought or suddenly aware of a change, she raised one palm to silence them, pretending to hear something on the other side. Tilting her head a little, Petra let her eyes drift idly to the floor, leaning a little closer to the door.

"Quiet, I need to hear what they're saying."

When she got there, she found she had been scammed, and ended up working in a diner as a waitress. A year later, she was discovered by a modeling agency; she's on loan from them to do This is Halloween.

Despite not finding the right page, Melvin was glad to see that he didn't seem to be in this episode. Good thing too, because it seemed his method acting had been so good that he completely forgot who he was in reality. He could only hope he broke out of it or else he'd have to ask a fellow actor how he got back to Earth. While he felt nice being Melvin, the fact this person was created by the same writers who were coming up with the word vomit that was this script made him cringe.

It was when he looked up that a painted Adonis got stuck in a sweater that was suffering a lot of stretching as the man tried to wiggle free. It wasn't working, and Melvin only watched as he made it worse.

No one seemed to be helping, and sighing, he set the tomb of a script down on his seat. Rising up on the stage, he moved past the attendants who were grabbing body oil before standing and grabbed the turtle neck.

O-O

THIS WAS A REALLY NICE TURTLENECK!

It was really soft, very, nicely knitted, and pretty much showed the budget of the show. Melvin hoped his character got to wear nice turtlenecks like this.

"Here. Just stay still." He grabbed the fabric, turned it left, shifted it under the elbow, and then turned it right, then slipped it neatly off. "You're free. Maybe they should just give you tank tops." Sweaters were going to suffer otherwise.

Stupid sleeve with their stupid holes and stupid confining ways and this stupid turtleneck and its body clinging properties. damn it all to hell. all the twisting and pulling and muffled screaming did nothing to alleviate him from the confines of the cotton monstrosity. It lasted far too long for his own taste.

the turtleneck from hell, leon was almost sure that this..... bubba person picked it out, damn robert. revenge for kissing and whatever the hell these doubles were doing. thank gods fro the one person who told him to stay still and he did so like his life depended on it.

"Ok just get it off me, please." he pleaded muffled and after a simple twist and shift, it was off. he was free.

The life trainee almost wanted to kiss the new recruit and go running fro the hills now that the cloth was removed. But they were still filming. "I normally stick to t-shirts and sweatshirts." he said with a huff. damn clothing people, and their sideways zipped fashion couture. "But thanks man."

Melvin handled off the turtleneck somewhat reluctantly to an assistant. It wasn't that he was keen on keeping worn clothes by strangers, but it was a nice design. He hoped his wardrobe was just as nice. "You should tell wardrobe about that. You don't look like the turtleneck type." Coming from the guy's personality and the fact they bothered to paint on abs for him. From all the guys he knew from college (..uh, from his weird memories he created for his character that he must have read from some director's notes), guys who had abs usually made a point of showing them off.

Two assistants worked to oil Leon up, which was Melvin's queue to walk away. There was recording going on, and he wasn't on the script.

Stepping off the stage, he sat back down and decided to just watch the performance. Hopefully no more props would break.

'Mark's' second cigarette was knocked out from his hands as Kat threw the foam weapon at him. He responded by grabbing it from the ground, thrusting his hips and and-

- "Oh for the love of god, Tim put that down before you hurt yourself with that thing." The not-quite-Death division lead leaned comfortably next to the not-quite Life lead, box of My Little Pony carrot and celery sticks still on his lap. He leaned upwards when Ceres caught his eye though from the set. "You're doing great Tamara honey!" A kiss was blown in that general direction with the words 'I love you!'

The director kept on making neck cutting motions with his hand, which probably meant that most of the actors were getting their scene cut and this was going to be one extremely talkative episode with feelings. And hopefully at least a flash of shirtless Leon.

Meanwhile, 'Medea', carrying a small container with four lattes, managed found her way next to Bix and Syd. Her findings were offered to the other two trainees. "Hazelnut or Almond Mocha?"

Did Hazel bother with reading the script? Hell no. She might have glanced over it, but other than that she was far too busy smuggling donuts and eating them behind the actors while watching the guys ahead of her screw up. At least the chick ahead of her seemed top notch.

It was her turn to shine.

She shoved the rest of the donut into her mouth and made an attempt to wipe up with her sleeve, only to smudge up the chocolate even further up her face.

"THAR! THALKIN'!" Hazel waved a finger at Petra as she spewed chunks of pastry out of her mouth, "SOMFIN' WIF THA DOOR!"

Then dramatic gopher turned her head toward the said door with food filled cheeks.



She chewed ferociously while speaking her line, "Wha... if we... awr nah... alone?" Hazel then began to finally swallow the dry donut, "What do---" suddenly she felt the lump getting stuck in her throat. She coughed like she was dying, partially choking and not too soon afterward, she was trying to thrust her petite fist at her own chest to help it do down.

"Heeel~" A weak cry for help escaped her brown crusted mouth.

It was all too much for Candace in the exhausted state her mind was in. To see H and Caelius be the way they were, her mind had checked out for a little while. Come back later, Candace is somewhere in another part of the world. Clarice coming in pregnant had confused the s**t out of her even more.

What the ******** was going on.

She wasn't at all calmed by the realization this place was just..some...giant television series set. This was so weird. So ******** up.

"I need some ********' coffee." Candace groaned, her face hidden behind her hands.

Syd jerked, her eyes a bit too wide to be natural, then she forced herself to smile--a smile that didn't quite reach her eyes. "No, I'm um... nervous enough as it is. I've just lost my contact lens," she said. "I mean, I need to find it for the big battle scene, right?"

Even if she was "an actor" she wasn't about to trust this lady. "I'm not much good for anything except the battle scenes, you know, I don't want to blow my part there." That's how she felt in real life, so she figured that was how her actor would feel too.

She backed up, holding up her hands. "Go and offer that to the others?"

[Lilwolfpard]

Somewhere off the set she heard other hers name called.

And in a voice that she really, really, really did not want to hear at the moment. Hell she braved flying face first into the props room to get away!...Not that it was planned that way, but she would say it was.

Still on screen... and the camera semi pointed at her...

Caelius said the magical three words that she never... EVER wanted to hear from him in her lifetime.



This was how she currently felt inside.

The actress laughed a bit. "Rachel, I'm more than happy to rehearse things with you, if you want to go over your lines again, you just need to ask. Here, come with us back to the seats, we can go over the script together, those others over there have nothing better to do." She gave Syd a second look, shifting her hold on the drinks to one hand, the other gently steering the trainee back to the spectating cast. For a second, as her hand made contact, there was just a flash of something else-

- Someone shouting at Syd to wake up, shaking her furiously-

- A clash of weapons in the background

- A still body staring lifelessly at her

-"I thought you liked Hazelnut lattes, you ordered that yesterday, remember? Here, sit down, have a drink, you'll feel better."
