fr: filming emergency preparedness shorts

we're makin' movies!
throughout the week, pru & crew can be seen around the island working on a series of emergency preparedness shorts. the topics of the shorts range from general first aid, CPR and evacuation, to extremely specific situations, like someone falling into a sleep so deep only a kiss from their true love can awaken them, or what to do when faced with an army of baby egg monsters.

while filming making concussions into funcussions, [volunteer 1] slips and gets a nasty knock on the back of their head. pru loves the realism, but the shot itself is kind of fucked, can we do that another two or ten times?

don't lose your booze is about all the dumb shit drunk people can get into, and how to help while keeping your buzz. ellie decides to go method and take a few shots, and there's a beautiful shot of them horking up their lunch that's gonna look great under the title.

the shortest short of all is your egg monster & you: what to do when it inevitably joins its brethren and tries to kill you, in which callie just screams "RUN!" while lulu dies loudly and dramatically from egg monster wounds. the helpfulness of this short has been disputed, but it's better than pru's first idea (eat them before they can eat you).

feel free to say your character participated in any of these shorts, whether they mentioned it ic or not, and make up any topics/titles/shenanigans you want! it's a free-for-all!!

"I did! You were an amazing storyteller! Do you think that makes us all the scorpion, though? Are we doomed to stab poor Cliff in the back again and again for all eternity?"

"I don't know. Maybe it's just symbolic of a customer-facing service job. Even if we're not stinging him, he still has to spend his days ferrying us around because we can't get across ourselves."

"Poor Cliff! We should throw him a party or something to thank him for all the work he does, unless you've already done that?"

Willow shakes his head. "Barrett and I invited him to go to the bar with us, but that's about it. We should throw him a thank you party, though! That's a great idea!"

"Thank you! Should we ask him if he consents to that first? Some people don't like being the center of attention at parties."

"Yeah, definitely! He's been really shut-in this whole time, and alone a long time before that. It might be overwhelming to be around so many people at once."

"Poor Cliff! So tragic! We should all try to befriend him! Maybe he wants to join the Guild for the purposes of camaraderie? Anyway, we should go ask him if we can throw him a thank you party."

"Mmn! But we can't mention that he's a ghost or he gets upset about it. Do you want to go to the docks after supper?"

"Okay!" Willow pauses, momentarily looking like that math lady gif. There's something he's forgetting... something important...

"— Oh, wait, I'm going to Axel's dinner party tonight at 7. And tomorrow's the dig... Oh— but new arrivals come Monday anyway... we could leave the dig early and bike back to the docks?"

"Ooooh wow, dinner party," Ellis says, just imagining how fancy that party was going to be. "And yeah, that works for me! I'll bring Gringolet."

"Oh, probably! He's nice. I think he only has, like, one horse anyway and he taught her about capitalism so now she doesn't let anybody ride her unless they give her, like... twenty dollars or something."

"Oh no! Hopefully we can pay the rest in apples, or that's going to get expensive." Ellis says, making a note to keep Gringolet away from such dangerous ideas.

"Yeah, that's why I bike everywhere even though I'd prefer the majesty of riding a horse." He sighs very sadly. (Willa bounces and chimes to remind them that she's here, then starts impatiently powdering Ellis's face. Or, at least, it feels impatient; she's doing it pretty quickly.)

"Oh, if only we had more horses," Willow laments, fully knowing Ellis already accepted the Horse Quest. It adds Drama and Urgency to an otherwise pretty low-stakes quest.

Ellis accepts the powdering without protest.

"I'll get us more horses soon!" he says, a sucker for Willow's lament.

"Huh? Really?" Willow perks up, as if this is news to him. He's really trying to give Ellis that NPC interaction experience. "Oh, Ellis, thank you! I know you can do it!"
