Roleplay By Monologues

Xena and Gabrielle were invited to be guests on the feminist TV talk show "The View." When they came to the set, though, they were in for a surprise: Barbara Walters, Rosie O'Donnell and Star Jones got on their case angrily...for NOT humiliating men ENOUGH.
 
In the meantime the Snow Queen wandered off for a short time from the Playing in the gardens of the Heart castle topic and appears on the Oprah Winfrey show. She is showing her stunning illusions to a worldwide public.
Oprah is amazed how teh Queen is doing this and then the Queen reveals she has borrowed some windmachines from Link who just finished searching for Zelda. The windmachines made it look like the Queen was showing some real girlpower here. This Oprah show has brought the Queen many positive reactions. She is getting her own show Snow Queen on tour in which she is entertaining her public with her magic tricks. Link has been offered a place as an assistant but Link refuses and has been helping Nessa on her search for Mario who for now isn't the one who has to release Peach. Peach has kidnapped Bowser and Mario must free him.
 
Mrs Shields had been kidnapped according to the latest newspaper but to everybody's surprise she showed up at the TDL Halloween party last week. She had been seen with a weird looking man who calls himself the Barbarian King but people who look at his signature knows it is General Grant in disguise.
Mrs Shields had the time of her life and had also shown some addiction to Duct Tape. The latest missing reporter was found back taped on a Lamppost. The famous finger pointed all into Peter Pevensie's direction but he claimed to be on a holiday in Wonderland during the actual time of the missing. The Wonderland characters claim not to have seen him which is doubtful according to Mr pevensie's active RPG over there.
However people are looking for this strange Barbarian King because he has made a deal with the reporter in trade of some chocolate cookies.

More will follow..............
 
OOC: Vanessa's next-to-latest entry is actually one of the most soberly REALISTIC things posted here yet. If there were such a person as the Snow Queen, Oprah WOULD give her lots of publicity, as a means of trying to make Biblical Christianity appear false and useless.
 
Copperfox ducks into a storage room to transform himself--as if anybody _didn't_ know it was he--into The Grey Eagle, and starts flying around trying to locate the particular person he has recruited to assist in the special entertainment at the coming debut of Emmett's dancefloor.
 
Ooc: That's why we have this thread Joe ;)

Soon the Snow Queen had a large group of fans begging her to continue her shows. Oprah invited her back and told her to write some books. So the now Queen writes books and the first book...of course appears in the OW show and yep..........becomes a bestseller. This asks for more so the SQ writes more books. All are bestsellers. Then she gets her own reality show, is invited to visit David Letterman and Jay Leno and of course Dr Phil wants her to show some magical tricks in his own show. SQ gets more and more attention and soon enough Andrew Adamson comes by to ask if it's okay to make a movie about her life. Actresses are waiting in a long row to do the auditions but of course Nicole -Golden Compass- Kidman gets this role. But Mrs Compass needs an opponent. Someone has to play Emmett so they call Tom -Davinci Code- Hanks and he will do the Emmett part. Of course they love many changes so why not making a love story? Jake is eliminated by the hollywood director and he changes the story completely. So of course Mr DaVinci Code falls for Mrs Compass and the whole -unbelievable- saga is complete.
 
(That means when you speak Out Of Character)

The actual Emmett completely ignores the movie. He is not surprised that the Snow Queen doesn't come looking for him here. For here, she has no home-court advantage, and she probably DOESN'T want to be taken over his knee and spanked...that is, unless she saw and enjoyed the "Castle of Maidens" episode in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail."

But swarms of the less intelligent sort of teenage girls DO line up to see the Snow Queen film. They come wearing T-shirts that say, "Well-Behaved Women Rarely Make History;" this, despite the fact that these girls themselves have never done anything original when THEY behaved badly, nor do they know even AS MUCH history as the Xena scriptwriters.
 
Troy and Gabriella, singing and dancing as usual, ran into Mr. and Mrs. OOC. (Mrs. OOC had originally been Miss OC the common misspelling, though I'm not sure how that works...) Mr. and Mrs. invite Troy and Gabriella to tea. Halfway through the tea when Troy and Gabriella suddenly burst out into song Mr. and Mrs. kick them out
 
Members of the Change Party urge Troy and Gabriella to sue their hosts for failure to redistribute the tea.
 
The white Rabbit and the Hatter decided to visit the Monologues thread and see the Snow Queen has become an idol. She even starts -as a good celeb- her own fashion line and make-up line and of course she wants to sing. But the man she so desires isn't there.

Brooke Shields has fled away. The Can gang and the Duct tape order have chased her and are planning to sue her for stealing 10.000 cookies. While MGGT and Queen Aravis707 are trying to keep Scooby Doo out of their Christmas decoracted house, Eric Lindros has stolen a bunch of cookies and plays hockey with it. He is punished and must bake 2000 cookies.

The PC movie character Peter pevensie is doing auditions for the upcoming movie Treasure Island. Originally he was asked to play the part of captain Flint but when he found out Captain Flint has been dead for a very long time he skipped. After all he had been a high king and didn't want to be treated like an average person. The books character Peter pevensie however didn't mind to play the Parrot which is also named captain Flint
 
Meanwhile, Doctor Who is just emerging from the adventure titled simply "42," when his TARDIS is redirected by a mysterious force, which causes the interior of the TARDIS to resound with the mindlessly repeated word "Change!"

When their ship squawks to a halt, the Doctor and Martha come out to find themselves in an office, whose walls are plastered with posters bearing equally meaningless slogans. A man at a desk welcomes them by name, saying, "On behalf of the Change Party, I want to thank you for the message you just sent!"

"What message would that be?" asks the Doctor, still rubbing his eyes in amazed relief that they are no longer blazing with destructive radiation.

"The precious message of SCARCITY, of course," the mid-level political hack tells him. "We've been working for a long time to prevent the United States from making ANY use of its actually substantial energy reserves--while at the same time piling on the gasoline taxes, blocking nuclear power plants, AND pretending to be outraged over the high fuel prices we intentionally helped to cause."

"But you're right about all that, aren't you?" asks Martha sincerely. "Drilling for oil in Alaska, for instance, WOULD kill every living thing in the northern half of the state, wouldn't it?"

The man at the desk laughs. "That's our line for the suckers! We know as well as the oil companies know, that they've got extraction methods which WOULDN'T harm the Alaskan environment the least bit; but we HAVE TO keep on pretending that it would ruin the whole region, because we need scarcity as our emotional weapon!

"Doctor, you're always running into regimes that maintain power by exploiting the people's anger or fear; did you think that WE couldn't play that game too? It's when goods are scarce that you can play on worry and resentment, making the masses believe that someone's robbing them of 'their fair share.' Energy is the obvious economic sector for this tactic now. And look at what you've just done in that spaceship-falling-into-a-star plot: you've helped plant in people's minds a suggestion that even using SOLAR energy somehow is greedy and evil! Even WE never thought of that one! But I want to thank you for helping to advance the cause of scarcity-thinking; forced collectivism would never get anywhere without it. Are you interested in a government job?"

The Doctor thinks about it. "Perhaps....Tell you what: if you can achieve the 100 percent unilateral disarmament of the United States, until the only thing it CAN do in the face of military threats is to whimper and beg for mercy, I'll talk with you again about accepting a job."

The party hack smiles. "We'll be working on that. Stay in touch."
 
"Naomi Watts! Calling Naomi Watts" sang Tinkerbell. Naomi turned her beautiful, blond head just enough to see who was calling her. "We need a dancer. And it's rumored that one has consented. But some of us do not know who, and we can't possibly wait much longer to find out.. Is it you, prey tell?"
 
Mrs Shields is still walking around at TDL while the Snow Queen is trying a show to find Emmett back. But the gunslinger is having a conversation with Copperfox. Not knowing about the upcoming tv show in which she is asking if anybody can get her in touch with Emmett.

MGGT and Abby watch amazed how Lindros can bake 2000 cookies in 30 minutes and ET decided to go on a holiday again. On his bike this time.
 
Naomi Watts informs Tinkerbell that she (though dance-trained) is not the mystery entertainer. What Ms. Watts has heard is that a promising unknown has been found. (Ms. Watts, though she LOOKS no older than 23, is closer to 40.)

Meanwhile, Emmett's brother Jake, despite a traffic tie-up occurring when the TDL server jammed up for the second or third time in a day, rides his new motorcycle to a sporting goods store. He and Emmett have decided not to try at this time to replace their missing revolvers and rifle, because of their awareness of current events. The brothers are VERY aware that numerous members of the Change Party, although THEY always have armed bodyguards to protect THEM, argue that citizens who aren't cool celebrities have no right to be able to defend themselves against predatory criminals.

But since shotguns are so far not under any such attack as handguns or even rifles, the brothers have decided to purchase a second double-barrelled twelve-gauge similar to the one Lady Inkling gave them, so ammunition will be interchangeable. Jake selects a suitable weapon, and buys plenty of shells, mostly buckshot.

On his way home, Jake is intercepted by a crowd of paparazzi. One shouts, "Jake! Jake Silverado!"--being an ignoramus who doesn't realize that this is not the brothers' last name. "Is it true that your brother Emmett lured a poor sweet innocent fashion model into an affair, promising to marry her, then cruelly dumped her for an Irish dancer?"

"No, it ain't," retorts Jake. "If'n you city slickers mean who I think y'all mean, she's the one some call Queenie, right? Blonde iceberg, like Marlene Dietrich, only better-lookin', _almost_ as good-lookin' as Naomi Watts?" Meeting a chorus of agreement, Jake adds, "I'll bet even SHE weren't liar enough to make up that story you just yapped at me; and y'all wouldn't believe the truth about her if I did tell ya. But Emmett never had no affair with her, not even a picnic nor ice cream social; and he don't want none. If y'all are pals of hers, you can tell her that Emmett says a beautiful rattlesnake is still a rattlesnake." He guns his motorcycle, making it clear that he wants to be on his way.

Another reporter, matching Ghost's description of the one who had fronted the phony protest incident at The Octopus Garden, now sneers, "So your brother is AFRAID of a woman, is he?"

Jake restrains himself from getting off the motorcycle and busting the man's jaw. "Caution ain't the same thing as bein' yellow, dude. Emmett and I already know that Miss Magic Model ain't--that she don't have, um, certain unfair advantages no more. But we also know she's got herself a NEW advantage to make up for that: she's got YOU coyotes! When Isaiah wrote 'bout folks callin' evil good an' callin' good evil, he had YOU city-slicker journalists in mind. Like that there Reuters Agency, callin' terrorists 'freedom fighters.' If Emmett or me so much as frowns at that gal, some of you'll make up stories 'bout us harassin' her or some such. But she _ain't_ welcome at the Gunslinger Steakhouse; an' we got us a bouncer there who _won't_ get libelled as an abusive male for pitchin' Queenie out into the dirt--'cause our bouncer is a gal her own self!"

With that, Jake begins moving the bike insistently forward. Soon the paparazzi are behind him.

Soon, MSNBC has a screaming story about fashion models everywhere being threatened with death by crazed right-wing survivalist fanatics, who are also reported to have beaten up ten or more journalists.

When this report reaches the Snow Queen, she, familiar with lies--and having at least a glimmer of knowledge of the moral characteristics of Emmett and Jake--instantly knows it to have been made up.
 
Finally, Emmett the gunslinger, along with Copperfox, Gray Eagle, BarbarianKing, and Bat-Bat had enough of the word "change." Emmet summed up what they were all thinking and said:

"We will keep our God, our guns, our freedom, and our money. The rest of you can keep "the change."
 
A single thirty-something businesswoman, who is a major fan of the television series "E.R,." joins the forum, joins this RP thread, and posts the following:

"From now on, this thread is about ME! It's about me being a brilliant surgeon, whose specialty is operating on 13-year-old girls who aren't as good at riding as they think they are, and hurt themselves falling off their horses at a fast canter."

Seeing what is being offered, Joseph Ravitts is strongly tempted to LET this lady take over the roleplay. In the end, he can't really do that, but he makes it known that frequent insertion of hospital scenes as a random interruption of the continuity is permissible.
 
Bat-Bat was so sick of the word "change" knowing full well that those who repeated it didn't mean it, decided he would never change from his bat costume.
His worst fears were confirmed when the major candidate who had won using the word "change" began appointing the same old tired government officials of the last disgraced administration of the 90s.
