[It's Monday morning (aka tomorrow morning). Duke suddenly opens his eyes and sits up in bed. He glances at the clock on his nightstand and screams like a little girl. Even though he only slept in his underwear (boxers), he throws the blankets off the bed and runs out of the room in a panic.]
Duke: 7 am?! How is it already 7?! School starts in 30 minutes! Oh come on, we just started going back. What the hell, Sparkle! You were supposed to wake me up! *incoherent screaming*
Brock: *in a worried voice* Oh, finally somebody woke up! It's already 8 in the morning. School started a half hour ago!
Duke: *in a confused voice, panics more* It's 8 now?!
Brock: Yeah, the clocks got pushed an hour ahead at what would be 2 am.
Duke: *more incoherent screaming, runs downstairs without going into the bathroom*
Brock: *watches Duke leave, shrugs, and enters the bathroom*
[Duke runs in a downstairs hallway, but then he suddenly sees Fierdan. Fierdan is wearing nothing but a robe and slippers that match the color of the robe. He holds a cup that has a hot liquid in one hand, easily summons a tiny orange fire on his fingertips, and heats up the brown drink. Fierdan looks strangely calm in the quiet morning. Duke probably looks like the opposite of Fierdan at this point.]
Duke: Why are you the only one who's up?
Fierdan: I told you, Duke. I don't properly sleep like the rest of you guys.
Duke: It's already 8 in the morning. Shouldn't you be dressed by now?
Fierdan: *laughs* Did you just ask me why I'm not fully dressed when you're just in your underwear?
Duke: Huh? *the realization hits* Oh, shoot! *turns around to go back the way he came but then nearly stumbles because Brock is right in front of Duke now*
Brock: Oh hello, drunkie and drunkie's daddy.
Fierdan: I'm not actually Duke's dad--
Duke: *is an angry boy* F*ck off, Brock! Stop being such a creep, square head.
Brock: Oh, I see how it is. Back at it with the square head insults, aren't we, drunkie?
Duke: Damn it, Brock! Leave me alone!
Brock: Hmm. *strokes chin as he observes Fierdan looking like he's zoned out* Since Duke's existence is just the fusion of you and Soulless, would that make you Duke's daddy?
Fierdan: *is still zoned out, leave him alone omg Brock*
Duke: Damn it, Brock! Just say father!
Fierdan: *is woke* Father?! I'm not him, I swear I'm not him!
Duke: Hey, that's my line!
Fierdan: Why was this kid *points to Brock* saying I'm a "daddy"?
Duke: *is a very annoyed boy* Ugh! Square head!
Brock: *snickers and leaves them alone*
Fierdan: *shrugs and takes a sip of the drink in his cup (he took a sip, babe)*
Duke: How did you not spill that?
Fierdan: It's called skill. *takes another sip, babe*
Duke: *sighs* What are you even drinking? Alcoholic coffee again?
Fierdan: Again? Oh no, this is hot chocolate.
Duke: So you aren't having alcohol or caffeine during this morning hour?
Fierdan: *looks at the brown liquid in the cup* Uh, it's too early for that stuff.
Duke: Too early? It's 8. *the realization hits* Why am I talking to you right now? I'm in a rush!
Fierdan: *puts his other hand into a pocket on the left side of the robe* It's not 8 am.
Duke: So it's 7? Then I was right. We're still late though.
Fierdan: *takes out a watch from the pocket* It's not 7 either. Your clock must not change the time automatically.
Duke: So what time is it then?
Fierdan: *reads the time on his watch* It's 6:10 am.
Duke: Wait, it's only 6? That means the clocks have gone back an hour!
Fierdan: Uh yeah, that's what it means.
Duke: Why didn't anyone tell this to Brock or me?
Fierdan: *takes a long sip, babe* Because you're both fools. You're stupid for not knowing that Daylight Savings Time ended on Sunday.
Duke: My clock was wrong the whole day yesterday?!
Fierdan: Yep, you're an idiot.
Duke: *incoherent grumbling and muttering noises* ... and while I'm at it, I guess I have to inform you on this subject yet again, Fierdan. You're no longer living all alone in Cincernum. Other people can see you now. There's no reason for you to walk around the house while you're naked.
Fierdan: *sets the almost empty cup on a nearby table, raises one finger with that hand* One- I'm not naked, I'm wearing this robe. *raises a second finger* Two- I wasn't alone in Cincernum because I brought Fauna with me to there.
Duke: *horrifed* You made her see you naked?!
Fierdan: How stupid are you, Duke? Of course I wasn't naked when she was with me! Why the hell would I be naked if I wasn't alone?!
Duke: I don't know, maybe it's because you're you.
Fierdan: What's that supposed to mean? Does it disturb you that I would sometimes wear no clothes when I lived in total isolation from society? Soulless wasn't connected to me 24/7 while we were in Cincernum.
Duke: I'm saying this isn't Cincernum. Other people live in this house, and they can see you.
Fierdan: *lowers fingers* Let me make something clear. Being naked at hours when the rest of you guys should be upstairs and in your rooms shouldn't disturb you so much. You're not even seeing me during those hours! *grabs cup and finishes drinking the hot chocolate*
Duke: I really got to get dressed for school. It has to be 6:15 by now. *turns to leave again but Fierdan's voice stops him from moving any further*
Fierdan: I'm nothing like Father because I never was and never will be the type of predator he was. He was Dawn's poison, and I was her remedy. I saved her. I hope you know that. *the robe falls (?)*
Duke: What are you even saying?
Fierdan: I'm not a --
[Fierdan is cut off by Sparkle calling out from upstairs.]
Sparkle: Why are you so loud? The rest of us literally just woke up. *angrily stomps down the staircase, goes to where Duke and Fierdan are*
Duke: ... that wasn't the point I was trying to make. *sees Sparkle* Oh. *looks at Fierdan who is retying his robe (how did it even fall?)* Oh!
Sparkle: It's way too early for me having to confront you two on your crap, but I have no choice.
Fierdan: Stupid robe.
Duke: You had your arms through the sleeves, so how did you make your robe fall down?
Fierdan: You're getting on my nerves.
Sparkle: Uh yeah, hello? I'm here, fools!
Fierdan: What are you doing down here?
Sparkle: I'm getting ready for school. What are you doing here?
Duke: He doesn't sleep.
Sparkle: Haha, sure he doesn't. *grabs the empty cup* What's this?
Fierdan: *mutters* Hot chocolate.
Sparkle: *puts cup back on table* Okay. *looks at Duke and Fierdan again* Why are you half-naked, and why was he just naked?
Duke: *face is getting red from anger and embarrassment* I really have to get ready for school. Goodbye! *rushes past them and runs upstairs, and Sparkle follows him a minute later*
[Five minutes later. Duke is wearing black jeans, a dark gray shirt, gray socks, and a different pair of underwear (boxers). He clicks his tongue as he runs a comb through his very dark brown hair. He opens his door and tries to walk with swag.]
Brock: Hey can I ask you something, Duke?
Duke: *snaps at Brock* No, you can't!
Brock: Look, I'm sorry I messed up the times. This time, it went an hour back and not an hour ahead.
Duke: I thought I told you to leave me the hell alone. *pushes Brock out of the way with one of his hands*
Brock: You never wear colors. What an emo.
Duke: I'm not an emo!
Brock: Oh hello, Twinkle!
[Twinkle sighs and walks away from Brock.]
Duke: *smiles* Oh hey, Twinkle!
Twinkle: What do you want now?
Duke: *tries to think of something good to say but only ends up saying* Brock is so gross.
Twinkle: Uh.. I think he's improving.
Duke: I still look better than him, right?
Twinkle: What does that have to do with anything?
Duke: I look better than him. I'm a beautiful boy with swag.
Twinkle: *looks disgusted at Duke* Uh.. *whispers with annoyance* Why do you always look good without even trying?
Duke: What was that?
Twinkle: *steps on Duke's foot* Can you be like me and go to school looking ugly?
Duke: *cradles foot* Just say I'm hot. You can also thank Fierdan for having the fire Elemental Power.
Twinkle: Shut up, ugly!
Duke: Wait, you just told me you were jealous of me because I'm never ugly!
Twinkle: Brush your teeth. Your breath stinks.
Brock: *laughs very hard* Oh snap, you just owned!
Duke: F*ck you too, Twinkle. *enters bathroom and slams the door behind him*
Twinkle: *speaks to the closed bathroom door* Oh if I recall, that's what you told them. That you --
Finny: *leaves his room and enters the hallway* Guys, you have to remember. We can't say anything deeply inappropriate in skits.
Twinkle: What are you talking about?
Finny: *stares at Twinkle who is facing him now* I know. I know what you intended on saying before I stopped you.
Twinkle: But he was lying. He didn't actually --
Finny: Shh! What did I just say?!
Brock: Oh wow, drunkie is such a bad boy.
Duke: *from inside bathroom, spits, and then says* Shut up. I've always been a bad boy.
Twinkle: Uh...
Duke: I've done very bad things. *clicks tongue* I killed a man.
Brock: *horrified* What the hell?! When did that happen?!
Duke: The story universe. Also known as the universe that you don't exist in.
Finny: Story universe Duke terrified me towards the end.
Duke: *sprays something* Only at the end, Finny? Haha, that's understandable.
Finny: You nearly killed two men. And.. like that.
Duke: Finny, remember when I cradled you in my arms?
Twinkle: I swear that's a reference to something.
Finny: *sighs* It is. And no, I didn't remember that. Wasn't I dead then?
Brock: Finny died?!
Finny: *sighs* Yeah. Nearly all of us- well, except you of course- died at least once.
Brock: W-what the f*ck.
Duke: *kicks open the bathroom door and flashes his teeth* What is it, Brock? Thought I was exaggerating back then? You didn't believe me.
Twinkle: Ugh, stop being so dramatic.
Duke: I'm the f*cking Duke Fierdan, damn it!
Dawn: *magically enters hallway where they all are* You sure are, sweetie. *pats Duke on the back*
Twinkle: *snickers* Dawn, thank you. I love you so much.
Dawn: I love you, too.
Sparkle: *from further down the hallway* We have to leave now.
Brock: Squad out!
Duke: Never say that again.
Brock: *is disappointed* Oh okay.
Yay for long skits! ;)
