This is a question My Biggest Disappointment

Often the things we look forward to the most turn out to be a huge let down. As Freddy Woo puts it, "High heels in bed? No fun at all. Porn has a lot to answer for."

Well, Freddy, you are supposed to get someone else to wear them.

What's disappointed you lot?

Today, it's
logging into b3ta, only to see

You have 0 unread messages in mocking, you've-got-no-friends grey at the top of the screen.

And no "home sweet home" thread either.

On the one day of the week I've got the office to myself during the day as well! Arses!

Sweet Tulip...
I am here, innit.

How fare thou?

Ah, Diabolo!
Hollo!

I'm bored and restless today. I want fun!

How is you good sire? Have your bruises subsided yet?

I frequently never have any gazzes
and I don't think I've ever had more than 2 waiting for me :-(

on the bright side, just half a day to work, then I've got a gig, and then on holiday!

woo!

Just about...
Takes a lot to keep me down!

I got run over a couple of years ago (and again was miraculously lucky and walked away from it) and the bruising died down in a few days!

I rarely get gazzes either, Vipros. Perhaps it's the vikingness, it makes people a bit wary...

scene seven (if anyone is interested?)
Scene Seven

VIPROS is all on his own in the b3tamobile. The radio is on. Radio 4 to be exact. And it's Woman's Hour.

vipros: *sighs* Huh, I've had to wait six whole scenes and a question change to get a mention and now I'm here, there's no-one to play with. So I am forced to listen to Woman's Hour. What an unfortunate happenstance. *cries*

But soft! What light from yonder window breaks! A voice from the back of the b3tamobile!

Mysterious voice: Vipros? Is that you? Oh vipros… vipros..
Vipros: A mysterious voice beckons. I shall see who it is.

And he looks into the rear of the van.

Vipros: CHICKENLADY! What are you doing here?
Chickenlady: Oh Vipros. My chickens have turned on me and trapped me in here!
Vipros: What?! How dare they!
Chickenlady: Yes, I was feeding them lovely chicken cake this morning when all of a sudden they mutinied, tied me up, stripped me of my knickers, and threw me into the back of the b3tamobile! Then they ran off cackling. I’m sure they were plotting to steal Ancrenne’s shoes. Oh, is it too late to stop them?
Vipros: Do not fear, o poultry queen! For I shall help you retrieve your chicken minions. But first, let us recline on this lovely mattress…
Chickenlady: Oh Vipros *reclines*
Vipros: *reclines*

Then, Enzyme and High Priestess CHCB appear out of nowhere, running at full pelt towards the b3tamobile.

CHCB: Vipros! Start the engine! A b3tacrisis is happening!
Vipros: Oh bollocks.

Ah, scene seven...
The Love Scene! :)

Still though, I feel that my character has done a bit of a runner. One can only assume that I'm getting in my 'Saving the Day' cozzie. :)

*waits for scene eight*
(, Fri 27 Jun 2008, 12:16, closed)
Yes, I kind of left you dangling
at the end of scene two. With Bert and Kaol.

Hmm. A heroic trio for the finale?
(, Fri 27 Jun 2008, 12:26, closed)
Of course
I thought I cut rather a dashing figure in scene two *grins*

EDIT: Vipros and DiT: I gaz you sometimes... Mostly when I'm bored.
(, Fri 27 Jun 2008, 12:40, closed)
@Kaol
charming!
(, Fri 27 Jun 2008, 12:52, closed)
Word up, Kaol!
*does 'street' fingers*

Yeah, you do Gaz me, I'm sorry.

Christ I'm bored today...
(, Fri 27 Jun 2008, 12:58, closed)
Bored, and lazy
Does anyone else wish to write scene eight?

what's happened to us all today?
(, Fri 27 Jun 2008, 13:03, closed)
I don't think I could take on that mantle...
And the style doesn't need changing... :)

Dunno where they all are... Is it possible that we're all talked out and they're w**king?

Where's scenes 5 and 6.
I missed them.
(, Fri 27 Jun 2008, 13:15, closed)
@BGB
they got tacked onto the end of scenes 1 to 3 didn't they?

Hi everyone.

@hlt I don't get many gazzes either.

*cries*

Hi Ancrenne!
What are you up to today?
(, Fri 27 Jun 2008, 13:49, closed)
Doh!
Of course, I've read scene 5 & 6. I just lost track of how many scenes there were.

That would be ace!
We could do it in August, if hlt comes of course.
(, Fri 27 Jun 2008, 13:55, closed)
OR
you could all come to my theatre. I have got keys and everything. Then we could perform it on the stage. And then drink the bar dry. And then find me a new job after I got the sack.

@hlt
There's a theatre in Kelso?

Borders Bash would be ace. I could crash at my Mum's no bother.

Well ok. But it's not very good and I don't have a title
and I've never really written a poem before and it doesn't rhyme or anything.

Here goes:

Perhaps it’s time I stole the show
Rip down the curtains and
Shine just for you
Perhaps it’s time I pull off this paint
Wear away this smile and
Exist just for you
Perhaps it’s time I tear my costume
Stand naked here and
Be me just for you

Perhaps it’s time I perform the 2nd act
Navigate these lines and
Put myself out for you
Perhaps it’s time I forget what to say
And stumble and stutter and
Corpse just for you
Perhaps it’s time I took my applause
Bathe in your love and
Perform an encore for you.
