ACTOR - FRUNTZMandy was showing considerable restraint. She didn't sass back at 'Dad', she didn't get annoyed at the audience, she didn't yell at the audience. Even though they where interrupting her one part. Then Renegath warned them all and Mandy decided it was Jacking time to steal back her spot light. " UNCLE!" she cried melodramatically, pointing at Ulmka. "WHY DO YOU DO THIS EVERY YEAR!?!?" With a cry she threw down the rat hat. "EVERY YEAR I GET A RAT HAT. EVERY. JACKING. YEAR. THEY WENT OUT OF FASHION TEN YEARS AGO." Ok maybe that line was a little girly. "AND WHAT DOES CLOODIA GET?!? MY LITTLE JACK PONIES, LAZER DEATH RAYS, BUILD YOUR OWN MINI, THE NUT CRACKER PRINCE." She turned towards Chuppi, towering in her characters anger as she snatched out of her hand the nutcracker. "You know what I think sister, SEXISM." Now she turned towards the audience waving the nutcracker at them accusatorially. "THATS RIGHT. SEXISM. JUST BECAUSE CLOODIA IS A GIRL SHE GETS THE NICE TOYS AND OUR PARENTS NEVER CALL HER A BRAT AND SHE GETS THE MAGICAL FUN TIME ADVENTURES!! WELL NO MORE!" Mandy let loose a scream before biting off the Nutcrackers head, spitting it out on the ground before her and grinding it into the stage with her heel. Then with a casual toss she threw the remains of the Nutcracker behind her. She turned picked up her rat hat again and put it on, giving the rest of her 'family' a smirk and raised eyebrow. Oh Jack that had been fun, and therapeutic after the audience interruptions.

Herryk was given the biggest set of 'I AM DISAPPOINT' eyes as the boil moved away. She felt sick at Chuppi's scream, and while she felt guilty, her heart was already confused. Of course, Hel's song did not help her - not one bit. It just heightened her own sadness rather than got her to calm down.
When she saw Mac leave, she clutched her own stomach and left too, keeping her head bowed before shooting Amphi a look that begged her to let her talk to Mac.

ACTOR - OWL
Ulmuka had been soothed when the siren lamented and then drawn back to the stage when the Professor made his presence known. The strix was happy to see the crowd calm and settle and this helped him get back into character. As soon as Mandy began her lines he was back as 'Uncle', his grin devilish and his cape mysteriously across his face.
When Fruntz called him out he threw his arms dramatically in the air and gasped as if he were surprised. He waited to see how Cloodia responded. Poor Chuppi had been very worked up only moments before.

AudienceThis... all of this, this travesty... it was... it was so sad! Here the students had worked so hard only to be ignored and... and... Tears slunk out from under Malodore's lenses. SO SAD. THE SADDEST. And then there was a sharp bang, startling Malodore out of its tear-soaked reverie. It looked up at the hissing words - who was that, a professor? - and mentally added a here, here! at the end of his speech. Va bene. Perhaps now they could get back to the scripted show? The plague doctor settled down again as the actors resumed on-stage. GIVING IT THEIR ALL. Malodore approved.

ACTOR - CLOODIA
Chuppi was still feeling like the worst person in the entire world since she screamed and made people sick. Worse - she had made people leave and because of her the play was going to be ruined. Even Hel's song only served to make her feel like she didn't deserve to be living anymore and the little monster was about to run off stage and just throw it all to the wind. . . . when Mandy strolled on and kept the play going.
The nutcracker was torn from her hands and she reached for it in a blind panic, surprised at how well she could keep character this far into things. "Please give it back." Her words were soft and muffled of course against Mandy's lines, she didn't want to steal the spotlight after all, she continued to reach for the doll. She was going to keep doing it until Mandy promptly bit the head off, resulting in Chuppi's complete freezing of movement. That....probably wasn't supposed to happen that way and the chupacabra was at a loss as to what to do next.
Think. She told herself. Stay in character, do not ruin this play any more than you already have.
"Fruntz! How could you! He was not yours to do such things to, even if you felt this was all unfair! I should....rip your hat to shreds for this, but you will find that I am better, am wiser." Taking a few steps towards the doll's head, and then its body, she softly started to cry at the loss of her beloved. Her tears were quiet (she didn't want to sob and risk ruining everything again, and she lifted the pieces into her hands. It was wet and gross and covered with drop bear spit, but what else could she do? The show would have to go on and she would have to keep touching it. Wasn't like she hadn't had her hands on much worse.
"Oh, dear Uncle! What shall become of my nutcracker, of my beloved prince?! The careless actions of my brother have placed him in such a state, can it be possible that he should be saved?" She waddled over to Ulmuka, her eyes brimming with tears that slid down her cheeks. Chuppi sure could mourn over inanimate objects. "Will I have to end my dreams now, of becoming his bride and ruling a kingdom at his side?"
The monster handed the doll over to Ulmuka, though the motion looked as though she were very hesitant to do so. She could become attached to that doll if she really wanted to...and maybe she could ask the teacher if she could keep it after all. A trinket to remember things by, of sorts. "Can he be saved?"

Taking a few more moments to regather himself, Jericho shakily went back to his seat. Ugh. Hopefully he wouldn't feel the need to vomit again. He didn't want to accidentally burn down the entire theater because he was feeling sick in the gut.
Once in his seat, he shifted his wings and just sort of sank down. Throwing up made him feel better but he still wasn't feeling at his best at the moment.

Other people did seem to be walking out of the play, but as Jericho settled back in, Riley patted his back and returned to holding one of his hands along with one of Malodore's.
Do not apologize. Are you feeling any better? Come, relax, I believe the show is getting better - ah, no, wait, the loud ones are leaving. Perhaps I am mistaken.
Riley was looking at a 45 degree angle to the room, where something was glowing and keeping her attention on it. She assumed this was where the stage was.

he thought to her while nodding slowly. At the mention of the show getting better, he looked up and noticed that Riley wasn't even quite looking at the stage. Furrowing his brow, Jericho reached out to take her chin gently to point her face in the right direction.

Audience - Manhandling Tits (oh god, this sounds so wrong) Her eyes flashed red after Herryk and his tantrum, snorting out through her nose after him. Shame on him.
Sura, instead of taking Tits away like had been the initial plan, looked up at the very unhappy looking professor, nodded, bowing her head down subserviently, before she planted her a** right back down into a seat, bringing the demon down with her. Yes, she was going to sit back down when there was still puke on one side of her.
Once seated, she put her arm around Tits' shoulder as though claiming the demon as her property. Awwww, ickle widdle demon being claimed by the Colossus. It was probably hilarious, to be honest. Not that she actually was claiming him.
In fact, it was more obvious that she was planning on making sure he stayed seated and played nice, less she had to crush his shoulder with her hand. Or something like that. Either way, she seemed content again, the blue remaining in her eyes and seeming to dance, like flickering holiday lights, between that blue and the green.
Probably safer to keep her that way.

ACTOR - OWL"OH CLOODIA!" Ulmuka trilled the o's in her name and shuffled forward stiffly. "Do not cry. Your brother Fruntz has failed my test of course! And for his failure he will RECIEVE A RAT HAT NEXT YEAR AS WELL!" Muka danced around Chuppi and Mandy. He looked a bit comical and in a way he was hoping that Chuppi would cheer up. Unless it was all her acting, in which case he thought she deserved an award. "So Fruntz, you recieve the rat hat because you are ungrateful but you are ungrateful BECAUSE OF THE RAT HAT!" Was this a part of the play? "Your dear Uncle is not a sexist!" He hissed it into the audience. More jaunty dancing took place and he finally settled at Cloodia's side. He very dramatically scooped up the broken toy and waved it about in the air. "Cloodia, you are so tender and kind. Do not cry. Your prince will be fine. He is made of sterner stuff than this!" Ulmuka pulled a handkerchief from his coat and waved it about in the air before he tied around the chewed up head. He didn't fit all the pieces back together correctly but it would be hard to tell from the audience. Right? The strix waved the 'fixed' toy around again before handing it back to her. "I will always take care of you Cloodia!" It was then that the clock struck a late hour. He looked up at the clock face and stood. "But alas! The hour is late and I must go. Go to sleep and do not fret." He gave Cloodia a big, obvious wink before leaning down and 'kissing' her goodnight. It was just another close clack of the teeth. He moved to Fruntz and did the same. "Where am I going? IT IS A MYSTERY!" There was the sound of ruffling feathers, a whirl of a cape and the soft sound of cracking bones and as Ulmuka made to run off stage, he turned into a massive six foot tall owl and flew off into the top of the stage and out of sight.

Mr. Syberhouse -- RiyoOh what the hell? Riyo hid her grimace behind the glass of apple juice in her hand when their kind patrons in the audience started an uproar for some indiscernible reason. Honestly, this play wasn't Riyo's thing. Perhaps if she had been forced into it by the teachers instead of Xiu, she would be cheering on the audience...
However, that wasn't the case. The feline wasn't exactly sure how much the play meant to Xiu, but she knew it meant a lot to her smaller chupacabra friend, and vicariously that meant it was something important to the baku. Speaking of said gray friend... Riyo's hands immediately slammed against her ears as the smaller ghoul started screeching at the audience, her thankfully plastic and almost empty cup falling to the floor. "thisiswhywecan'thavenicethings." She mumbled to Xiu after Chuppi finished, the handsome ghoul cringing from the ringing in her sensitive ears. Not that she could blame the chupacabra for being upset.
Everything seemed to come back into control when Hel sang and the teacher marched in ready to bash some skulls.Thank Jack Now they could get this over with. Leaning down, she carefully picked up her cup and pretended she never dropped it.
Oh look, they were returning to the show. Sure, she knew what was supposed to happen, but... Damn! The drop bear really cracked the nuts of that cracker of nuts! It was... Brutally delicious, considering it was Hel's character.
"FRUNTZ, YOU LITTLE s**t!" Riyo screeched with the rage face of one thousand suns. "This is why we can't have nice things! I warned you young man. You wanted more for Christmas? Now you're getting a belt. MY belt." Mr. Syberhouse's eyes were filled with contempt as she stared down at her 'son'. At the very least the feline was good at rage. "Now get to bed before I kick your a**!"
And... If anybody had labeled the ghoul as someone who handled children well, this probably taught them not to count on her as a babysitter.

Actor - Fruntz"The Jack you aren't! I don't see you testing Cloodia! AND I'LL JUST SET IT ON FIRE AGAIN YOU SEXIST!" Mandy called after Ulmuka as he exited the stage. And then Riyo had her rage and it was the perfect scene of domestic violence. Mandy approved heartily. "ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS FOR YOU TO ALL DIE HORRIBLE PAINFUL DEATHS. SEXISTS." Her final part said Mandy proceeded to stalk off stage, making sure to give her best melodramatic huff as she did so.

MRS. SYBERHOUSE - XIU
Now Xiu was confused--was she still feeling kind of distressed at the audience's rowdiness (though things had calmed down now, it seemed), or was she trying not to laugh at Mandy, Ulmuka, and Riyo's acting? Probably both. Seeing the look on Chuppi's face was the only thing that prevented the baku from bursting out in laughter. Since her "husband" was busy threatening scolding their "son", Xiu simply shot Fruntz a disapproving look before turned her attention back to Chuppi. Her expression softened.
"You'd best retire to bed as well, dear." She murmured, lips tugging upwards in a sympathetic smile, "I'm certain you're tired, and your father has--uh--he's spoken to your brother about his conduct." Xiu looked towards her nutcracker, reaching out to rest her hand on the object very gently.
"He will be fine, Cloodia. Now off to bed with you. Good night." She pulled Chuppi into a hug before drawing back, taking up Riyo's arm again.
Clearly Mr. and Mrs. Syberhouse had drastically different parenting styles.

Narrator - Mot - Backstage
Welp! Problem solved~ It wasn't as quiet and discreet as he wanted, but it was solved. The play went on, and Mot gave Sura an approving nod of his head before heading backstage again.
Once backstage, he made a beeline for where ever Hel was. The first act was drawing to a close, and Mot had something he needed to do.

Taryn startled at the professor's sudden scolding. Finally! Although she felt as if she was being personally reprimanded, the ghoul was grateful that someone had stepped in. Temes was crying, Xiu looked absolutely distraught, and the music was struggling to stay above the swell. What a mess this had become! She settled back into her chair awkwardly and hugged herself... alright, it'd all go back to normal and--
...and an actor had just bitten the head off of the prince. Alright, they were back in action! Now if the crowd could just forget what had gone on...
Oop, and there she went off-stage. What an interesting adaptation.
