i think it’d be rather exciting to meet a pirate.

yes, that’s what worries me.

man overboard!

sir, the rocks! it’s a miracle she missed them!

can you swim?

pride of the king’s navy you are.

there seems to be some sort of high-to-do up at the fort, eh?

someone has to make sure this dock stays off limits to civilians.

there’s no real ship what can match the interceptor.

you’ve seen a ship crewed by the damned and captained by a man so evil that hell itself spat him back out?

it’s bad luck to have a woman on board. even a miniature one.

i intend to see that every man who wears a pirate brand or sails under a pirate flag gets what he deserves: a short drop and a sudden stop.

i can’t breathe.

women in london must have learnt not to breathe.

i’m told it’s the latest fashion in london.

are you decent?

i’m watching over you, [name].

that’s all i’ve found out.

where did you get that?

clearly you’ve never been to singapore.

you’d best start believing in ghost stories, [name]. you’re in one!

you have your trinket, i’m of no further value to you.

the code is more what you’d call guidelines than actual rules.

take what you can, give nothing back.

you’re supposed to be dead!

that’s interesting. that’s very interesting.

thank you, [name].

am i not?

parley! that’s the one!

gents, take a walk!

because it was [name] who said it.

we’re all men of our word, really.

me? i’m dishonest. and a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. honestly, it’s the honest ones you want to look out for, because you never know when they’re about to do something incredibly stupid.

there be the chest. inside be the gold.

now will you shoot him!?

[name], my effects, please.

not without my effects.

i make a point of avoiding familiarity with pirates.

you seem somewhat familiar, have i threatened you before?

you’re the one they’re searching for.

just doing my civic duty, sir.

you threatened [name].

oh, so it is that you’ve found a girl!

that’s not good enough!

this is either madness or brilliance.

you are, without doubt, the worst pirate i’ve ever heard of.

but you have heard of me.

these are his, sir.

that’s got to be the best pirate i’ve ever seen.

not you, we named the monkey [name].

he strapped a cannon to [name]’s bootstraps.

i’m telling a story!

he plays things close to the vest now.

reason’s got nothing to do with it.

if he was telling the truth, he wouldn’t have told us.

unless, of course, he knew you wouldn’t believe the truth even if he told it to you.

i said no lies!

panic

all starters are taken from season one of panic. feel free to change pronouns as needed!

you really are a good liar.

because you’re the only one that ever actually does anything!

where’s your mom, [name?]

do llamas bite?

thought we’d lost you there.

fuck you, [name]!

but i trust you.

what about [name]? isn’t she your best friend?

what about her?

not even a kiss goodnight?

you’re the new kid.

hurricane harvey wiped us out.

we didn’t find out until we saw him on the news.

you know, you used to hate cops.

[name] had me clean out the grease trap.

you want to know what i’m afraid of?

[name], ray of sunshine.

you know my name, [name]! your mom screams it every night!

i didn’t do shit for [name]!

there is no together in panic!

that was my money!

yeah, well, it’s my transmission.

i have to get [name] from camp.

you didn’t even ask if llamas bite.

everything i’ve done has been for [name], you know that!

maybe you shouldn’t listen to everything your little boyfriend tells you.

a dollar day every day that school is in session.

i don’t want to watch, i want to play.

then how’d those two kids die last summer?

oh, so it is real.

you want to know what i’m afraid of?

i laugh!

i’ve been here for a year.

menu?

can you get to the point?

i like you. i do, i like you.

it’s for player’s ball.

they couldn’t have just sent an e-vite?

so that’ll just be a swipe right from you, then?

bless her heart, the lady is a tramp!

it’s like even when you’re right next to him, he’s still all alone.

we always said he’d die with a bull-rope in his hand.

what do you want, [name]?

you want to smoke in a shithole?

slacking off is patriotic.

depends. how hot is the bass player?

cinderella, your sock.

you okay?

this way, let’s go this way.

why don’t you ever laugh?

the prize is $50,000!

take a flare.

and uh, no crying, because i’m out of tissues.

i want to say hi to the new kid.

is that your diploma?

are you saying you’re going to miss us?

what are we toasting?

what about a jump from devil’s drop?

looks like we’ve got a player trying for the high point!

contestant, state your name!

all starters are taken from the next to normal broadway cast recording. feel free to change pronouns as needed!

i’m so glad i know that.

i’m going to have sex with your father.

the house is spinning.

it only hurts when i breathe.

this sucks!

i still have this practice room for seven and a half minutes.

she’s not there!

hi, dad.

this is fucked.

we’re the perfect loving family.

i’m alive!

i’ve never been alone.

do you wake up in the morning and need help to lift your head?

do you read obituaries and feel jealous of the dead?

you just don’t know who i am.

i know you know who i am.

the memories are gone.

the aftershocks live on.

please look closely and find her before she fades away.

i’m trying to tell you i love you.

and this is one fucked up seduction.

why not simply give in and get on with living?

mozart was crazy.

you give up way too easily!

i sit behind you in like, four classes.

i am the one who’s always been there.

everything’s great! why wouldn’t it be great?

my husband’s boring.

so anyway, i’m leaving.

this is clarity you did not have before.

make up your mind.

actually, [name], they’re our wedding rings.

that’s the first time you’ve mentioned [name] in weeks of therapy.

i’ve missed you these days.

i’ve been crazed.

i’m good as gone.

you have stories to tell.

maybe i’ll let myself fall.

maybe i’ve lost it at last.

me adding the goodman siblings is just me trying to figure out what gabe would be like if he’d lived and also being incredibly sad because of natalie

Art doesn’t want to get dressed. Art wants to stay in bed for another three hours and do absolutely nothing except admire Johanna. He can’t, though. And he knows he can’t. They both know that. The girls could come in at any moment, and Johanna will need to go home soon. Still, he can’t help but be selfish. He thinks he deserves it, after everything he’s been through. And isn’t that a change? Art Donaldson thinks he deserves to be selfish. Someone should alert the newspapers. He pushes the thought to the side, watching as Johanna pulls her slip on. He moves across the bed and kisses her shoulder.

Hopefully they have longer than a moment or two. He settles against her chest, draping his arm carefully over her waist. “Thank you.” He knows he doesn’t need to thank her for holding him, but he feels like he should. On the worst days, he always hates his desire to be held, but he never hates it with Johanna. He presses a lingering kiss to the underside of her jaw. “It has.” He wishes she could stay until the morning. It’s impossible, but that doesn’t stop him from hoping.

@notefinal's a.rthur d.onaldson asks, “  will you just…hold me? please.  ”

act three, scene five: two lovers wake in a world not meant for them. the scene plays out the same. juliet will argue that it is a nightingale outside her window. romeo will say it is the lark. lovers will kiss. lovers will part. but johanna hears no lark nor nightingale outside. she is in the presence of a robin. she looks at art and sees the same resilience. survival despite harsh winters. she feels less like a juliet and more like the young boy sneaking out of a window. there is never enough time. the lark is already too early. but she glances at a clock and relaxes her shoulders. the girls are playing outside the door now. there is time for this.

❝ you'd better get dressed. i don't think it's long before the girls burst in. laura always has something up her sleeve. ❞ but johanna pauses at his simple request. is her paranoia playing tricks on her again? is her fear slipping through the cracks of her skull, making up reasons to leave when her heart begs her to stay? she is always flighty. always exhausted. can't she allow herself this one time? a pause before easing her slip over her corselette and drawers ( she likes it when she can feel art's gaze on her back as she does ). ❝ i'm sure we have a moment or two more. ❞ johanna slips next to him in bed again. a kiss to his shoulder. she lays his head against her chest. ❝ it's been too long, ❞ she whispers into his hair. it's been too long since i could stay.

yeah, that’s a spoon.

it is also a fork!

oh my god.

there’s two of them.

why’d you kill your mother, [name]?

looks like the bitch got me with a zinger in the end.

i’ll be damned.

now that’s a headline.

did you name your dog after me?

i’m not talking to you!

i love family reunions, don’t you?

burn it down, [name]. burn it all down.

what’s the secret to good comedy? timing.

what’s courage? grace under pressure.

and who’s the boss?

i’m the boss.

ladies and gentlemen! good evening!

you wanna boost our ratings?

i think that went well.

what does that spell?

think big. and kinky.

your legacy will be death and madness.

so tell me, [name]. do i kill?

she just kept pushing.

this is [place], baby. we’ve all got flair.

i’m pregnant.

light ‘em up!

i don’t forgive you for my face.

face it, kid.

[place] has no heroes.

she was supposed to be home ages ago.

when did you last see her?

i’m her son.

she’s what you call a party girl.

how fast does an animal like that move?

you knew she was here.

what can i say? i love her.

liberating, right?
