Fortunately for them, what Temptation said must have been an accidental cue, for several actors in crude soldiers' garb entered the scene, making a big and loud show of searching for "the runaway maiden and her lover". Temptation and Joy made a show of acting afraid, ducking down behind a cardboard bush, and crawling away awkwardly while the "soldiers" continued chattering and "searching" the garden. Temptation gripped Joy's hand and practically yanked her with him behind the curtain. He didn't care if it was too early for their characters to disappear or not. He was not about to risk being recognized and caught by Lord Fear's men, especially after their most recent close shave. "You guys a BRRR-ILLIANT!" The director suddenly appeared before them, grinning broadly with his hands on his hips, small stack of papers clutched in one hand. "You're really selling the story, kiddos! You're not actually following the script, though--" He threw his hands up happily. "--But I don't care, because what you're doing is--!" Temptation took a breath to interrupt, but another voice chimed in. "Hey! Those aren't our actors! What kind of business are you running here, Peterson?" A heavy-set man strode toward them, brushing irritably past stagehands. "This isn't like my story at all! I demand an explanation!" Despite the fact that the other man looked like he could crush Mr. Peterson with one first, the smaller man waved him off loftily. "Your story stinks, I told you that, Parker," He replied. "And anyway, your original actors? Bessie just told me Beatrice locked herself in her room after Michael broke up with her. Some professionals they turned out to be." Ignoring Parker's irate glare, Mr. Peterson turned back to Temptation and Joy. "Look here, you two. I can get you a job here, quick as that." Temptation got an idea. "Gee, that'd be great, Mr. Peterson, but there're two cloaked guys back there who just offered us a job downtown. They said they'd pay us double of what you would." Peterson's eyes flashed. "Oh, they did, eh?" He growled. "Where are these punks? I'll teach 'em to steal my actors!" Joy grinned and said, "Behind us, back with the audience."
Awesome!
1. That's good! 2. I like this director. Looks like he's going to go pick a fight with those guys.
Thank you! ^v^
1. I wondered if anyone would catch that! xD 2. He may be small, but he's got a temper.

Ooh, I love how that ended. So much drama! I think I know what to do for the next part. Great job Tigress!
As others pointed out, that close shave was brilliant.
Hm. I know a couple of kids who've been homeschooled most of their lives, but they attended public school one year simply because they wanted to have friends. Turns out they didn't enjoy the experience as much as they would have liked.
Interesting. That's like what my mom says, that public school is not fun and that I wouldn't like most aspects of it. She's right but I can't help to wonder.
Maybe you could ask someone who has gone/is going to public school, if you want to learn about the experience from someone who's been there first-hand.

Yeah, but the few IRL friends I have are homeschooled. Although y'know, I have a friend on here who's not homeschooled.
