I had this skit idea on Thursday, but I'm posting it now. It was supposed to match the weather I have where I live (I had a snow day on Thursday lol) but now all the snow melted. So let's just pretend it's Thursday again. Ok but not really.
Yeah ok. Enjoy the skit. (hecking wild man)
-------------------
[Date: March 22nd. Time: 11:45 am. Location: Living room. Fierdan is in a T-shirt and sweatpants (so not his typical all black clothes, basically), and he's standing by the window (and he's looking outside, obviously). There are snow flurries outside. (Fierdan, sweetie.. hhhhfgh.)]
Fierdan: So it is snowing.
Twinkle: *enters the room, walks toward Fierdan with his back to her* Thanks for stating the obvious. *takes long, loud sip out of the CapriSun fruit punch juice pouch she's holding*
Fierdan: *being curious about the loud sip, he turns around to look at Twinkle, oh and he looks confused* Wait, it's Thursday. Why aren't you at school?
Twinkle: *takes another sip, then says casually* Why aren't you at college?
Fierdan: *is at a loss for words*
Twinkle: *sighs* There's no school today. It's a snow day.
Fierdan: Oh.. oh okay. *nods but still looks confused*
Twinkle: *starts walking away, but then Fauna enters the room*
Fauna: *walks toward Fierdan who is still standing by the window* Hey, where's your brother?
Fierdan: Ryen?
Fauna: *sighs* Yes. Who else could I be talking about?
Twinkle: *mutters under her breath* Pull it together, Fierdan.
Fauna: So where is he?
Twinkle: Why do you care where he is--
Fauna: I want to know where he is.
Twinkle: Uh.. okay. *walks away some more*
Fierdan: Ryen is at a conference. Since he isn't home, I have to supervise you kids on my own.
Fauna: *snickers* You? Supervise?
Fierdan: Yeah, that's right.
Fauna: Hmm.. okay. Tell me where Brock and Sparkle are at this very moment.
Fierdan: Huh? I don't know where they are right now.
Fauna: *shakes head in disappointment* Then you're not that good at supervising us kids. You're so clueless.
Fierdan: Ryen is meeting with.. people.
Fauna: Wow, that's so very specific. What kind of people?
Fierdan: It's a meeting for adults only--
Fauna: *gasps* So Ryen is into that kind of stuff--
Fierdan: *assuming what Fauna is referring to* What? No!
Fauna: Then tell me where he is?
Fierdan: I can't tell you! It's confidential information!
Fauna: Why didn't you go with him?
Fierdan: *hesitates before saying* Then who will supervise you kids?
Fauna: Duke has been eighteen for a few months now. Isn't that the age people become legal adults? So like.. he's not a kid anymore. Just so you know.
Fierdan: Compared to me, he's younger which makes him still not an adult of this household.
Fauna: And you are?
Fierdan: *sighs* Yes. And so is Ryen.
Fauna: Actually, Finny and Sparkle are also eighteen at this point. That means they aren't kids anymore either.
Fierdan: *grins but with a subtle "help me" expression ?*
[Brock enters the room from the kitchen. He looks annoyed and a bit sad. He's holding a plate with some food item on it. Behind him is Sparkle who looks vaguely disappointed but not clearly upset like Brock is.]
Brock: I told Sparkle to make me avocado toast. And what do I come back to? This garbage!
Sparkle: *sighs* Ugh, what's wrong with it?
Brock: I can't trust you with food!
Sparkle: I did just what you asked.
Brock: No, you're lying.
Sparkle: No, I'm not lying! How dare you accuse me of lying!
Brock: Did you even use guacamole?
Sparkle: Yes!
Brock: You put on other stuff too, and you didn't ask me if you could add any. You could at least tell me what.
Sparkle: *sighs* Just because I put some diced white onions and shredded cheddar cheese on top of the guac doesn't make it suddenly taste terrible.
Brock: It only tastes terrible because you weren't being honest with me.
Sparkle: Being honest? I just told you what I put on your toast!
Brock: You could've told me before I took a bite of it, not knowing I would also be tasting onions and cheese in addition to the avocado and bread.
Fauna: *looks at Fierdan who is looking at Brock and Sparkle arguing* If you're the "all mighty and powerful" supervisor, then why didn't you break up their fight before it even started?
Fierdan: *sighs* I was looking outside, so I couldn't see where anyone else was. I also thought all of you were at school.
Brock: Oh, school is cancelled for us today. We have to stay home.
Sparkle: *is confused* Supervisor?
Fierdan: Yeah, I'm supposed to supervise you guys since you're all home instead of being at school for some reason.
[A minute of silence later.]
Brock: Hey, Fierdan, try this gross avocado toast and tell us how awful it tastes.
Sparkle: *sounding offended* Hey!
Fierdan: Uh.. sure?
Fauna: *smirks* This sounds like it'll be entertaining, so I'll just stay and watch you.
Fierdan: *sighs like he's in pain from hearing Fauna* Okay fine.
Brock: *cuts off a small piece of the avocado toast and hands it to Fierdan* Tell us what you think.
Fierdan: *nods and pops the small piece of avocado toast into his mouth, chews thoughtfully*
Brock: So..?
Fierdan: *swallows* It tastes fine. It's pretty good, actually.
Brock: *feels offended by Fierdan's words* Huh?!
Fierdan: Uh.. I'll have the rest of it if you don't want it, Brock.
Brock: *frowns in disappointment as he hands Fierdan the plate, he thinks that Fierdan has betrayed him*
Fierdan: Cool, thanks.
Sparkle: *speaking to Brock* Ha, told you so! It still tastes good!
Brock: Fierdan doesn't know what something gross tastes like.
Fierdan: *looks up from the plate* What was that?
Brock: *grins* Tell us the worst thing you've ever eaten.
Sparkle: Uh.. why?
Brock: I want to know what he'll say.
Fierdan: I don't want to scar you though.
Brock: Scar us? Pfft, yeah right.
Fauna: You don't know much about our lives in the story universe, do you?
Brock: Not really, no.
Fauna: Oh, haha, okay then.
Brock: What?
Fauna: Ah, it's nothing. Why don't you tell us, Fierdan?
Fierdan: I would say my father's blood, but you drink blood more than eat it. Maybe that.. wait no.
Brock: Uh, what the heck?
Fierdan: Oh, I know!
Brock: W-What tastes worse than blood?
Fierdan: A lot of things, actually.
Brock: Oh...
Fierdan: *answering Brock's question* Decayed, black goop covered, human flesh.
Brock: *looks disgusted* Human flesh?
Fierdan: Well, it was more black goop than anything human when Dawn and I ate it.
Brock: *is horrified* Dawn also ate it?!
Fierdan: *speaks casually* Yeah. We were literally starving.. I don't think I ate anything for at least four days.. and our choices were to either eat that, each other, ourselves, or for us to just starve ourselves and end up being just like the hundreds of dead "bodies" that surrounded us.
Brock: What the actual f*ck...
Sparkle: This is why you shouldn't go on Dawn's bad side. Got that, Brock?
Brock: *gulps and nods*
Fierdan: My father transported hundreds of people, including Dawn and myself, into this new world he created. Earth was getting "too overpopulated," so to combat this issue, he forced people, mainly weaker individuals, into living into a new world. Only much later and when Dawn and I were the only ones who survived in his new world at first, did we realize his actual intentions. In order to deal with the population, he purged the numbers of it by mass-killing every person- except Dawn and me- all at once. My father, he planned and intended on having anyone who stepped into his new world be killed. I had to watch people die. I was only seven years old when I saw hundreds of people die around me. I couldn't do a damn thing to save them. And what was I doing? I was trying to remember my own freaking name. Just being there made Dawn and me forget our lives before. Many, many, many years later, and we finally regained our memories of before that fateful day.
Brock: Damn....
Fierdan: My father knew he wasn't going to die a peaceful death. He f*cked up too many lives for me to give him mercy. And on top of that, haha, Ryen told me that Z vaguely expected me to kill him. So, haha, even killing him was what he wanted me to do. I can't escape what he wanted me to do; I unknowingly turned into exactly what he wanted me to be. That was why he didn't hate me when I started killing him. He wanted that! Z brought them to the world to purge the population, and what did I end up doing there? *laughs wickedly ?* I f*cking lowered the population by killing people. Just like he f*cking wanted!
Brock: So on top of being a murderer, you and Dawn were also cannibals. Well, I won't forget that. Ha, ha.. help me.
Fierdan: They were no longer human by the time we ate them! It was just black goop. We were just living off of black goop, that might have once been body parts at some point, for the first month in the new world. I couldn't die because why would Z want to kill his son so soon? Bloodlines mean everything to him. He couldn't discard me, even though he actually hated me back then. He only liked me because I killed people. Being a pacifist makes me weak and worthless, according to Z. But when I started becoming violent, he started being proud of me. Z tried to kill Dawn and me, but our mother kept us alive. The powers she gave to us prevented us from dying like the rest of them.
Sparkle: Wait.. did you say our?
Fierdan: Ryen and I aren't completely certain about our mother.. we don't know much about her since she's a mysterious person, you see.. but we currently believe she was also Dawn's mother. It's all guessing, really. We can't exactly ask her. Since she's dead. Because of, you guessed it, Z.
[The door leading to the outside opens. A few seconds later, Duke, Dawn, and Finny enter the room. They look tired and are covered in snow.]
Duke: What are you guys doing? Are any of you gonna help us shovel?
Dawn: *looks around* Wait.. where's Ardere?
Duke: Damn it, not again.
Yeah. Bye.
