BACKSTAGE - ACTOR
Ooh, snack hunting? She grinned when Tset asked to join--of course she was allowed to!--though Charlie's question made her tilt her head. "Well um...maybe? If not, I suppose we could wander out for a bit, except..." Except it would be really bad if this caused Charlie and Tset to miss their cues.
...That was probably out, then.
"Let's look around for a bit! If not, I can always run to my dorm room and bring something over." She was done with her part, so for the rest of the play, she was really just going to relax.

Actor -- BackstageIt was sort of odd to see such a pale boil turn a bright shade of red, but Riyo kept that comment to herself. Better to focus on the conversation. Zar's attempt at comforting the ghoul seemed... Awkward at first. "I-I'm not a man." That was the problem. She was a ghoul. She just... Didn't look or act like one! Or feel like one most days! Or...
... Mm...
But the second part about broadcasting power and confidence seemed to perk her up ever so slightly. "I do?" She asked, only realizing that she'd contradicted his words after her question was spat out. "I mean... I do!" Of course she did. She was Riyo. As confident as a bull charging at a turtle with horns tied to its shell... Mostly. Folding her arms across her chest, a 'confident' smirk emerged on her lips. It might've been a show to convince herself that she was indeed as confident as the incubus portrayed her to be. "Thanks for that." At the very least, it was a thoughtful compliment. Perhaps not exactly what she needed, but like a gift, it was what went into it that mattered.
And it looked like she'd gotten through to him, too. Though the smile mildly surprised her. "I'm sure it'll be fine. No need to thank me. You can pay me back later." The feline added the last part in jokingly. Had this been right after she arrived at the academy, the ghoul might've been serious.

Prince – HelThe prince seemed ‘pleased’ as the Calvary arrived, and focused solely on the Rat King for now…except for the mass of gnomes weaving around her and between her legs now…getting in the way. The blade of her prop claymore rode down against the prop sword of the Rat King, and the ghoul clenched her teeth as the odds, at the moment, seemed to be in the Rat King’s favor. “ Heh! If you could fight as well as you bluff, fiend, you’d be a more competent opponent!” The reaper leapt back, away from undead ghoul, and was about to charge at her when a Rat-gnome got in her way. Never one to pass up the chance to be violent on a gnome, especially one that was the ‘enemy’, the Prince pulled a foot back, and like a pro soccer player, punted it clear off of the stage and right into the audience, more specifically in Titus’direction. Hel then turned her attention back to Sammy, now that the path between them as clear, and was about to charge at her…when poor Chuppi was apparently being molested by gnomes. Ack! Oh snap. Uh…quick change of plans…impromptu acting! “ Cloodia!” The Prince cried out, eyes going wide, and instead of going after Sammy, she lunged to Chuppi’s side instead, swinging the prop claymore in a wide arc to knock around all the gnomes that were harassing her. She then held out a hand to the ghoul, unfortunately leaving herself ‘open’ to an attack from the Rat King.

Backstage - ActorNow that the chaos was (mostly) over, Thackery was attempting to smooth his tail fur back in its proper direction. With the paint clumping together, it was pulling painfully against the sensitive skin there, and he feared he might soon have a bald tail. Like a real rat. Too bad there wasn't an encore of this play. "I think so...those gnomes are really bad. I don't think they read the script at all. Are you?" After responding to the undead boil's question, he finally looked over at him, noticing the skeletal leg. He jolted up in a panic, pointing. "Did they do that to you!? They're going to eat Chuppi alive!" he cried. In an attempt to be resourceful, he snatched up a nearby rope, tossing one end to his castmate. "Okay, okay, um. Maybe we can throw this out, and they can catch it if they need help, and we can pull?"

Actor/Backstage
He nodded his affirmation as she asked if she really did radiate confidence. Comparing her to himself, he felt like she was completely made of self confidence at the moment, even taking the outfit relatively in her stride, or so it appeared to him anyway. And sometimes half the battle was convincing others, things fell into place after that somewhat.
As she made the mention of repayment later, he actually brought a hand up to his chest to pat where his pocket would normally be for his pen, to take a little note of this out of sheer habit, only to look a little forlorn as he realised he was pen-less. "You'll have to remind me of that later on. I'll forget. Mind like a sieve when it comes to favours, when they are to other people anyway."
That wasn't a demon trait at all, no siree.
But at least by this point his mind was somewhat off of the play. Wait. The play. He did a double take.
"Where's the play at right now?" What if he'd missed his cue?

BACKSTAGE / ACTORS
Jack knows that Tsetsiliya did not want to miss her cue, however she had to settle those relentless bats fluttering around in her stomach. She nodded to both Charlie and Xiu.
"Y-yes.. as long as we are keeping an eye on the play, anyway." She did not want their little trek to make them late, good Jack no. "And thank you, b-but I cannot ask that of you," she added to Xiu's offer. If she were still feeling faint by the end of this (which she very well might), there would be time to find something. "We shall try at the back here, yes?" With a pale finger, she indicated the dimmest part of the stage, close to the side doors that led into the halls behind the stage and auditorium. "I was thinking there might be a cast room.. o-or something similar." But it was not best to go looking for that now. "Perhaps near the doors?" The ghoul started edging towards them, casting a wary eye back at the slit of the stage visible between the curtains.
As long as they didn't wander out of hearing or vision range, they should be fine, right?

"I suppose we could look ar- Really? You'd do that for US?" He gave Tset a look and then Xiu. But then reason hit the boil and he shook his head. "No you cant do that. You'll miss the play and then you'll be sad." That made since right. There just had to be something around here right? Charlie started to wander deeper in to the back of the stage. The part where ropes tangled together for different props and curtains. Careful was not Charlie's middle name and he tripped over one of the sand bags. No, there were no snacks to be found here.

ACTOR - CLOODIA [ Temes ]
If Chuppi could ever have been thankful for a person in her life, it would have been for Hel the moment she saw the girl come over and start kicking gnomes away with her feet like they were some kind of odd soccer balls. The way she swung her sword was amazing too, and for a moment the chupacabra felt like she was really being saved by her prince. She might have been hesitant before about giving this girl a kiss but seeing as she saved her from gnomes?
A kiss was not going to be a problem. Plus Chuppi didn't really understand the complex nature behind kisses anyway, and so she just waited for her cue, looking relieved in both acting terms and in reality.
Gnomes were scary!

AudienceHe was barely asleep when ghouls began calling his name. West sat up straight when Levi's fingers closed over his nostrils, glaring at her while he breathed through his mouth. Several seconds passed before he smacked at her wrist once, twice... "What're y'doin'?" he hissed under his breath. "Crazy... Jus' go on talkin' 'bout yer makeup n' s**t while y'suffocate me." His face was slightly less agitated when he turned it to Alwine and Savior, nodding at them in greeting before facing forward once more and slumping in his seat. Ghouls.

AudienceTitus did his best not to flinch as the colossus patted his now bruised knee. He could feel the tenderness but he was sadly no stranger to pain and he had the scars to prove it. His grin cracked wider when the ghoul mentioned it was a date a few choice and undoubtedly unkind words coming to mind. Before he could really open his mouth though he soon found a flailing and angry gnome being punted into his lap. " Oof!" Titus grunted loudly as the gnome landed on his unmentionables a few curses leaving his lips though none of them were in English. He had been joking about the monkeys on stage throwing s**t, he had no idea it would really happen. Or sorta happen. Before the gnome could do anymore damage the demon plucked him up starring daggers at the rat clad midget before looking back at the stage. " I think you missed your cue." And despite the gnomes flailing and loud protest Titus stood from his seat, gnome held firmly in his hands before he pulled back and, like a star football player, tossed the vermin dressed gnome back on stage and right in the middle of the fight. He didn't have tomatoes but a gnome was close enough.

ACTOR / RAT KING"You dare mock me wooden fool? How long will we dance like this till you just stay dead!" All around gnomes swarmed and Sammy went to work again, her blade cracking over heads of solider dressed gnomes with no regard. Some dared to jump onto her tugging at her cloak, this wouldn't do! They would ruin her costume! Planting her sword on the stage she spun flinging her arms wide.
Gnomes flew.
One towards Jericho, Surma, West, and Mei. She didn't stop though, she turned ripping her sword back up from the floor boards aiming it towards the Prince as he aided Chuupi away.
Finally the play was back on track, Sammy turned towards the two, "FACE ME PRINCE!" She snapped her saber on the floor spinning it again edging forward like fencer with a hunch, cloak and tail flailing wildly about her as her sword snapped down over and over at the Prince. "You can't hope to win!"
Her sword slid quickly moving around the larger one lifting it ever so slightly she slapped the flat of her blade on Hel's wrist, that was the sign, together they would raise their arms tossing the larger sword into the air.
She reached catching the larger blade with ease in her right arm crossing both high above her head, she took one step back right in position for the final blow.
"THIS IS IT NUTCRACKER, YOU WON'T WIN TONIGHT!"
With that the swords fell aiming to cut poor Hel's head right off.

Sura watched the gnome sailing...sailing.... TOUCHDOWN!! And it probably wasn't a very pleasant one at that. Sura wouldn't be kissing that better no matter how nicely he asked. Though his language of choice did get her ears perking up and down as she tried to figure out what it was he was saying. It certainly wasn't her dominant language. The first person to try and pick that up was going to feel like their tongue was having an epileptic seizure or something.
Still, she slapped a bit as the gnome again was sent flying back to the stage. The boil had quite an arm on him...but soon enough she looked back to him, expecting..or rather, hoping, he would sit back down again. Because she didn't want to have to get back up and make him sit..or manhandle him out of the theater to other events.
Because this was entertaining to watch, if nothing else.
Flying gnomes. She knew those would fit in her mouth. But they weren't very tasty, not her food of choice at all.
"You have an impressive arm."
..and then came another flying gnome. Towards her, of all people! Sura's eyes seemed to be hyper-focused on that tiny little thing...and its tiny weapon. That tiny weapon just might have been the problem in the eyes of the colossus, as it only took one mighty swoop of her tail to send the thing flying back towards the stage it had come from like a twisted tennis game.

AudienceLevi perked at being slapped at at the wrist, slyly smirking at the wrath demon's reaction. Makeup? Who did she look like- a skeeV actress or something? Ya really'll sleep anywhere, eh? She whispered, trying to give him some a sliver of dignity. Way ta leave yer guard down.
Always training. Never not- suddenly gnome to a demon. Levi jumped in her seat, wide-eyed at the addition of a gnome. Since she'd caught wind of Xiu's experience, the tatzel was a bit wary of them.

BACKSTAGE - ACTOR
"Are you two certain? I mean, I have no other roles so I'm free, and if you need something to eat or drink..." Though Charlie did have a point that she would miss the play (she probably wouldn't be too sad about it though since she had been at all the rehearsals, but it was a nice thought!)
Speaking of the play, things seemed to be progressing quite smoothly now. The baku was particularly fond of Hel's performance--she was doing an amazing job!
But back to the snacks. She supposed that all they could do was take a look around, then. The baku nodded at Tset's suggestion, following after her and Charlie when...THUMP. Xiu's hand flew to her mouth as she stared at the demon who had--somehow--just managed to trip over one of the sand bags. She scurried over to his side to grab one of his arms and help him up.
"A-are you alright, Charlie?"

Audience
Amphi was enjoying the beginning of the play, especially when it started up. She continued to remain silent as Mac kept to himself. She only glanced over when she heard him tapping on his phone but didn't say anything, It wasn't like she needed to comment on anything.
She had one point was attempting to reach over and perhaps hold his hand when....
A very large...Very angry boil stood up and started yelling.
She couldn't help but shrink back as Mac was confronted, attempting to sink into the seat so the man didn't turn to her and get upset.
Once the Draugr had said what he needed and Mac, after throwing his phone stormed out, Amphi was still in shock at the whole escapade (Especially hearing that he went around kissing taken ghouls....). She heard Mac say something to her, trying to tel her it was before anything between them happened but she couldn't look him in the eye at the moment. When she did look up though when he passed her, Her eyes briefly met Lizzy's before nodding. Mac and Lizzy would talk and well....after that....
Her face fell as she looked around before getting up to quietly leave. She didn't want to interrupt the play anymore then it needed to be, and without Mac here to enjoy it with her well....there was no point.
