Here are the lines for chapter 1 of SHATH. Please remix this project and add audio in the backdrop area for your lines, preferably with multiple takes. --- Jason: Where the heck are we?! (confused, mad) Leila: *pointed look* Do you expect anyone here knows? (shrewd, trying to hide her worry) Jason: No. (flat, still mad) Noelani: what on earth is happening?! (very loud, shock) Leila: we don’t know. (still shrewd and acting like she's tired of the world) Noelani: I figured. (dramatic) *Short silence* Serendipity: Where am I? Who are you? (attempting to be all innocent sounding but gradually freaking out) Thurston: Yeah… (very nervous) Rune: …I believe we are in a hotel room. (knowing, in thought) *Others look round, surprised. They had not seen Rune.* Leila: you’re…right. (a bit surprised, but less hostile, as though having respect) Thurston: who are you guys anyway?! (very scared and anxious, genuinely freaking out) Rune: it appears…we do not know each other by acquaintance…(thoughtful and cryptic) Serendipity: I think we need to introduce ourselves. That’s what always happens next in the movies. (suddenly decides she's in charge because she thinks the others are below her) Noelani: we’re not in a movie, prissy. (snappy, mad. unimpressed) Serendipity: I know that but it does feel like we’re getting watched, doesn’t it? (also snappy, a bit smug as if she knows something the others don't) *Silence.* Thurston: now that I think about it…it kinda does…(terrified by the prospect) *Silence again.* Serendipity: well we may as well introduce ourselves. I’m Serendipity. (all posh and proper. says her name like it's important) Jason: For real?! (incredulous and teasing, half laughing) Serendipity: yes. You can call me Serra. And what’s your name? (looking down on him as usual, very flat. says last part like she doesnt expect it to be good) Jason: Jason. Just call me Jason. Um, I play AFL. (very confident at the start, gets awkward by the end) Noelani: Cool, I’m Noelani. Call me Lani all you want and I’m warning you, don’t annoy me. (impatiently. last part said ominously) Silence… Thurston: Oooookay…um my name is Thurston. I like animals. Just—you know what, just call me Thurston. (anxious, doesnt want a fight. kinda quiet) Leila: I’m Leila. That’s all I’m saying. (flat and suspicious) Jason: Jeez, we aren’t exactly brandishing knives at you right now girl. (incredulous, jokey, unserious, but also somewhat ominous at the same time) Leila: still… (very suspicious) Rune: To finish, I am Rune. They/them pronouns please. (conclusionary, to the point) *Pause.* Noelani: *laughs* what a strange bunch we have here! (jokingly) Rune: *sighs* we should not be talking; we should be trying to get out of here. (a little impatient but trying to hide it.) Jason: can’t we just open the door? *grunts as he tries to with no success* (incredulous) Rune: well done. *short, sarcastic claps* see my point? (sarcastic) Jason: *glares* no. *kicks door down* (grumpily) Rune: impressive. 9genuinely impressed but trying to hide it) Jason: thanks. Hurry up you guys! (grudgingly, then impatient) *Everyone crowds outside. Jason goes to the front door of the hotel and attempts to open it, then kicks it, but it is too strong.* Jason: argh! (in frustration, but also pain) Thurston: What now? (worried and hopeless) Serendipity: I think we should split up to find a way out. (decidedly like its obvious) Leila: I don’t agree…we should stick together. (contradictory, betraying some anxiety) Serendipity: why are you so worried? (acting like Leila is being silly and childish) Leila: I don’t know, maybe because we were kidnapped and dumped in this random hotel that is locked?! (annoyed, loudish) Rune: she has a point. (flatly) Jason: well I agree with Serra. I wanna get out of here ASAP. (don't-carish) Leila: me too, but it’s too dangerous. (again betraying some anxiety. suspicious again) Thurston: I don’t really care what we do, okay? (trying to avoid a fight, nervous, a bit loud) Rune: I agree with Leila. Something’s...off. (a bit wondrous, but also ominous) Everyone together: Noelani? (questioning) Noelani: …It’s Lani. *sigh* And let’s split up. (grumpy, then slightly unsure) Leila: oh come on, I was just starting to like you! (trying to hide that shes upset. a little annoyed) Noelani. I’m sorry. I don’t like siding with the princess either Lei-Lei, but…the quicker we’re out, the better. (genuinely apologising, which is rare for her so shes a bit awkward.) Rune: well, I’m gonna blame you if we all die. (very ominous, a bit angry) Serendipity: lovely thought. Now come on! (impatient, annoyed) *Group wander away from each other* -END OF CHAPTER 1-
