Actor -- BackstageOh, wait. He thought she was serious. "You don't actually owe me for that. Don't worry about it." Now if Zar had needed days of coaching like Xiu with dancing... Yeah. That one wouldn't have been so easily forgotten. Unfortunately Riyo had been paying back Xiu with dance lessons, so she wouldn't get anything out of this play but a clean debt slate.
Oh, wait. OH s**t. she'd been distracting him from the play this whole time, hadn't she? Eyes widening, she glanced out to the stage, frantically trying to remember the rest of the actors parts. She didn't, because frankly she hadn't cared about the parts that didn't relate to her own."Uh... Oh Jack I'm not sure." She went from feeling great to horrible in a record amount of time. "I'm sorry, that was my fault. I didn't realize I was distracting you..."

AudienceGnome. No, seriously, what kind of play was this? West's quest for anonymity was suddenly shot all to hell by the addition of a tiny snickering man-creature to the chest. The demon helpfully turned the gnome upright and set him on the floor, his pissed-offitudeness already too focused elsewhere to be spread around so suddenly. "Go. Be free."The gnome gave West a thumbs up, then winked and leered at Levi before jogging away. "Not anywhere," he muttered. "School used ta be safe." He rolled his eyes, crossed his arms, and got back to glaring at the play.

Prince – Hel“ I’ll never stay down with the likes of you around!” Hel cried back. Not the most epic of lines, but actions speak louder than words…and there were some epic actions coming up. The Prince seemed startled when the Rat King called out to her, and whipped around, covering Chuppi protectively, making sure the ghoul stayed behind her. While turning around, the Prince seemed dismayed as she was disarmed, one arm coming up to still try and protect the ghoul behind her as she stared up at her sword and the Rat King’s about to take off her head. Hel seemed worried for a good, long dramatic moment, before her lips tugged into a smirk. “ You’re right…” She started, a hand coming out, and she concentrated on gathering her fear. “ I will not win…” Her fear concentrated, and soon the Prince was brandishing a spear that was taller than she was, and more menacing than the prop sword she had been waving earlier. “ I will conquer!” Hel pulled her spear back, using both of her hands now, and gave it a mighty thrust forward, running the Rat King right through her torso. Hel pushed the weapon all the way in, until she was nearly face to face with the ghoul now, and grinned up at her triumphantly. “ Not just tonight…but for eternity!” The reaper pulled back a bit then, and then brought a leg up, and forcefully kicked the Rat King backwards, removing the ghoul’s body from her spear. She spun the weapon, and then slammed it forcefully onto the stage floor, a loud boom echoing from the motion.

"What the Jack?" Jericho cried out as a gnome was now flying straight at him. He had just recovered from his sickness. He didn't need a gnome in his face now! With a snarl, he threw the gnome away from him, sending it elsewhere in the audience.
Maybe now he could get some peace while trying to enjoy the show!

AUDIENCE
Savior placed a hand on West's knee, still very much on the ground. She looked at Levi like she'd never seen her before, which....wasn't a bad thing since she barely recalled anyone that wasn't carrying along her emblem. Levi did not have Savior's emblem, so Savior did not remember Levi.
"Wessst." She rested her head on his knee, for some reason really tired. Was it because she was content and safe in his presence or was it because she was really tired? NO ONE WOULD KNOW. "Sleeps."

Thackery dropped the rope, staring out onto the stage. He didn't turn to face the Doll General when he spoke.
"I don't think they're going to need this rope, man..."

She may have turned up...a little late for the play, but Astra was making sure not to make a sound as she sneaked in via the back entrance, which was thankfully still open. The play was in full swing, with gnomes currently being thrown everywhere and the actors on stage in a sword fight.
The flying gnomes was a nice touch, she had to admit. Although she didn't want to bit hit by one of them, so she was quick to sneak into a empty seat and to keep her head low, save one coming her way.

ACTOR / RAT KINGIt was flawless it was epic. Her swords dropped heavy to her sides thudding heavy on the floor as she found herself impaled on the spear. She coughed, cackling weakly as it was rather hard to talk with a spear shoved in her gut. To the auidence it was a dying hack of a laugh, her mask quivering slightly on her face as she shook her head with the chuckle.
To Hel she only saw the wicked grin of approval from the other ghoul as she squirmed on the spear.
"Y-you... may have won... tonight." She coughed a thick splotch of red near brown landing on the floor between them. "I will... never. Die."
Suddenly she was falling back behind a pile of chests set up to make the room look more like a childs. Behind it flung open a trap door, cushions lined the inside softening the fall as Sammy fell back into the darkness grinning the whole way down.
The pumpkin Pill was waiting with a glass of water for her down below.
With that done, the Rat King was dead.
Back on stage Rats and Soldier gnomes scrambled for cover, no one knew about that part and to say the least the gnomes where scared shitless.

Prince – HelHel took a moment to stand proudly, triumphantly, and she dismissed her spear, now turning to face Chuppi. Er…should probably tell her this was planned…lest the ghoul have a heart attack like before or something. Thus, Hel turned her back to the audience, and quietly uttered to the ghoul. “ No worries, friend, this was planned! Sammy is getting a pumpkin pill now as we speak.” She winked at Chuppi then, and then turned a bit so that the audience could see them both, and resumed her princely tone. “ My dearest Cloodia…are you alright?”

BACKSTAGE / ACTORS
"Ahh!" Tsetsiliya bent down when the fallen angel boil went over, helping Xiu by catching the other arm to hoist him to his feet. "A-are you hurt?" Hopefully he didn't hurt his ankle or anything - that would be terrible!
Glancing around, she spotted a small table tucked near the door, behind the levy system for the ropes. A bucket was tucked next to it. The poludnica's face brightened. Once Charlie was back on his feet, she picked her way carefully over to the table. A few plates of spookies were set out, along with blood lollies and other treats - enough sweets to get the cast fortified and energetic. She waved to Xiu and Charlie excitedly. "I have found some!" So that meant the bucket must have water in it! She leaned over to peer inside..
.. only for her face to scrunch up at the smell. Somebody had used this for their sick bucket. Suddenly she wasn't very thirsty anymore.

AudienceThe gnome removed from his presence, Titus then began to debate if he really wanted to stay. He was on his feet and hadn't been pulled back down yet. He could make a run for it and be done with all this. As much as he hated himself for it he sat back down, watching as Sura batted a gnome away like one bats away a pesky fly. Her compliment on his performance was only met with a groan as he leaned on the armrest furthest from her, resting his head against the palm of his hand. At least the play was getting interesting, the ghoul on stage had ran another one through with her spear. If the whole play had been that way he wouldn't have thought about leaving. Where was Big Slow anyway? He had been easy to get a rise out of.

ACTOR - CLOODIA [ Temes ]
Chuppi had not been expecting Hel to stab Sammy in the chest...and literally stab her. She had not been expecting the ghoul to cough up blood everywhere and then fall through a trap door. Needless to say the look of wide-eyed fear and wonder on her was legit and the chupacabra stepped away from Hel. She wasn't scared, not of Hel, but she did need to gather her wits a bit in order to properly continue the scene. Inwardly she was crossing herself and praying that Sammy ended up okay, that she didn't actually die. No one should have to die for a school play, that was just wrong.
The rest of the gnomes that remained on stage dressed as rats and dolls quickly scattered and Chuppi listened to what Hel had to say, nodding her head in a small manner as to not act like she was listening to anything. It wasn't until Hel spoke again that Chuppi even realized she needed to answer the question, and it startled her out of her surprised thoughts. "My prince,
my beloved! You have saved me as I always knew you would."
The little monster moved towards Hel and it looked rather ridiculous, her not even three feet tall and Hel towering over her. Still, she would act the part and do it right. "My dear Nut Cracker, I never one doubted that you would be my prince, that you would come and deliver me from the hands of evil. Please, allow me to reward your actions. Please, take this token of my affection."
Chuppi hesitated for a moment before she motioned for Hel to bend down, seeing as she couldn't reach her at all. Assuming if and when the older girl did the monster closed her eyes and placed a kiss somewhere on Hel's face, honestly hoping she didn't hit her lips or something. Chuppi wouldn't have minded kissing her on the lips, it wasn't like she meant anything by it, but didn't Hel have a boilfriend? "There, my champion! I have given you the gift of my love, may you carry it always."

Knowing the scene had been planned out and that Sammy would be fine shortly didn't make watching her get stabbed much easier - but Siddie had to admit that it was a finely done and dramatic scene. Still, she clasped her hands together tightly.
Then a gnome arrived from somewhere overhead to distract her from her worries ... right into her lap. She barely stifled a shriek - this WAS a performance, shrieking would be rude - and promptly scooped the dazed creature up to toss it back in the direction from whence it had come.

AudienceMitsu had been watching the play quietly though the tension was mounting as the characters continued to fight. She was obviously into the setting as she watched the little gnome go flying off the stage as the mock fight raged on. For a moment she thought Hel was a goner and her grip on Shun's hand was tight...maybe a little too tight. Then the unexpected happened and suddenly the play was a little too real as Hel summoned her spear and promptly ran Sammy through. OAO Thankfully for Shun Mitsu had gripped the armrest on her other side and had squeezed down on it, the plastic cracking and splintering under her grip. " H..HEL!?" How could she run someone through like that? Mitsu was in a panic ready to stand from her seat, her eyes darting to the reaper beside her.

WHAT. WHAT?! Had someone just DIED ON STAGE?! Taryn's eyes shot open wide and she nearly stood up, but stopped herself at the last second. No, no, nobody else was panicking, it couldn't possibly be real. How had they done that, though? It all looked... very real. Why was nobody else freaking out?! Even Temes seemed to be alright with it. Didn't dying still hurt, Roch had said? Even if you were revived, it hurt...
With her hands clasped over her nose, Taryn watched the following scene ensue. A kiss... alright, a kiss was nice. Okay, sure. Kill the rat king, kiss your huge boilfriend.
Oh boil this was an interesting play.
