-- The Power of LOVE --
* A puppet enters stage right, clad in white with red-painted hands holding an enormous cigar, with red dye spilt down its dress (BLOODHANDS). *
BLOODHANDS: Aha!
Those nasty, stinky, Minmatar subhumans make me shudder. I will cleanse them from the gene-pool. I will show that I'm a blooder.
Bring them here - But not too near. Their blood's impure: I'll not endure It any longer than I must, While they are blasted into dust.
* Another puppet enters stage left, this one in green printed with a contrasting A-in-circle and holding a shotgun (ANARK). *
ANARK: My love!
BLOODHANDS: My love!
ANARK: While rapture is mine at the glorious benison of your presence... <the puppeteer may here improvise on the theme of rapture, ad libitum, ad infinitum> ...
I ask you in the name of LOVE to cease, And offer to these slaves their just release, Because this action doesn't show your finer spirit, dear. And besides, it looks quite bad for my PR.
BLOODHANDS: "Love"?
"Love"?!
I'd been thinking "blood and Jamyl", Now you come and try to trammel My expression of free choice, And undermine my schemes.
Though my hands and dreams are scarlet, Some dare doubt me, claim the harlot Anarchist controls my voice, And works against my dreams.
I've stated that I want these vermin dead. I must deliver on the words I've said. And now you ask me this, when I have made myself quite clear. So, you see, it looks quite bad for my PR.
ANARK: * Looks winsomely and winningly - as only a puppet can - at BLOODHANDS. *
Love is proof against regressive emotions of fear and hatred, loathing and prejudice. Love teaches us to look for the best in mankind, not recoil from the worst. Love connects us to what we were and shows us what we can be. Love gives us purpose and reason. It draws us back from the abyss and lights the fires in the night-time of our soul.
Besides, my dear, it's the only way to spin ourselves out of this mess.
BLOODHANDS: * Sucks on her cigar * * Sighs *
I get to hold the leash tonight, though.

[CONTINUED]
* The BLOODHANDS puppet moves to the front of the stage. *
BLOODHANDS: I'm a blooder, fierce and scary, Quick to hire a mercenary, Or to make folk dance attention When it suits my whims.
I love Jamyl, thrones and power, If you slight me I will glower. So be careful what you mention If you like your limbs.
* The ANARK puppet moves to the front of the stage. *
ANARK: I'm an anarchist, all fractious. I can't get no satisfactious Love from those less fi-e-ry, Or from those less strong.
I love clashing words and battles, Freedom, liberating chattels, Writing in my di-a-ry, And telling folks they're wrong.
BLOODHANDS and ANARK: So when we met the cluster held its breath, And waited to see blood or love or death...
* The two puppets move toward each other at the centre of the stage, tentatively bumping hands. *
ANARK: Cupcake?
BLOODHANDS: Snookums?
* The puppets each raise a hand and flap it twice in a "scare-quotes" gesture. They turn to face each other and begin chanting: *
ANARK: Humm... I see a truth in your heart that gleams. With eternity we will find our secrets and heart's desires in the light of distant stars. Humm...
BLOODHANDS: Humm... I feel a silent whisper travelling the tapestry of stars, breaking the rules of time and space itself to reverberate directly into my heart. Humm...
ANARK and BLOODHANDS: Humm... What I know is this: as long as our hearts have known the nature of true love, there are no wrongs or rights between us. Will never be. Because there where it matters most, we are always one. Humm...
* The earlier jaunty music resumes. The puppets turn to face the audience, make the scare-quotes gesture again, and begin a high-kicking chorus line. *
ANARK and BLOODHANDS We both like duels and insults, And we both know we're the best. And so, you see, Our hearts and minds are one...
ANARK: We are super-human godlings,
BLOODHANDS: Quite unlike the lesser podlings.
BLOODHANDS and ANARK: Laws are for the little folk, Not wonders such as we!
ANARK: We purge the memes.
BLOODHANDS: We purge the genes.
ANARK: We free the weak and the oppressed.
BLOODHANDS: We free them from the burdens of their lives...
ANARK: Pig-dogs should all quake before me.
BLOODHANDS: That's unless they will adore me.
ANARK: Spill the blood of the oppressor!
BLOODHANDS: I'll spill any blood I can.
ANARK & BLOODHANDS: And through it all, Our hearts and minds are one.
ANARK: I've conquered death and shot God in the face, But now I am a captive to your face.
BLOODHANDS: I want to see a Sani Sabik state, But somehow when I'm kissing you it's great.
BLOODHANDS: Oh my darling, you're my cutie.
ANARK: And you are my raving beauty.
ANARK and BLOODHANDS In your arms I've come to see the light... Of love with you makes ev'rything seem right.
FINALE: All paradoxes reconciled. All those who'd question us reviled.
And that which makes us do all this? We'll seal it with a luscious kiss:
Our most ti-ta-nic, Mes-si-a-nic LOVE.
* THE END *

Oh, my. Never thought I would laugh so hard at something like this.
Perhaps we need to start a monthly comedy club? I think it might actually restore some sanity to the goings on here. ----------------------------------------------

I certainly hope there is an establishment of art somewhere in the cluster willing to grant such genius a fellowship.

Miz is still chuckling slightly as the feed starts up.
Fantastic work, absolutely fantastic. I've had one of my... family... send you a token of appreciation for this fine entertainment. More will be forthcoming, should more artworks of such marvelous quality be shown.

That was very entertaining sir, as someone who appreciates good theater with story and plot I would like to know when your next performance will be. Hopefully sooner than later. --------------------------------------

If I were representing an entertainment group, say... That new NOH subsidiary, I would consider this a worthwhile investment.
Very Good show.

Wondrous debut, truly entertaining. I hope to see similar productions satirizing future IGS spectacles as well.

Well one thing has been true for the scope of human history. You are never truly famous until they're satirising you with puppet theatre!
Expect 25m isk towards your costs. As cutting social satire that was really quite good.

This is easily the cleverest thing I've seen on the IGS in a long time, bravo!
And miss Constantine is being most graceful about it. Enjoy your 25 mil! -----

Oh my, this is wonderful. As we say, It always must go on!
I love satire, and my love said it all really. I'll join my love in generosity and add 25m isk to the show.
Congratulations for the creativity!

I've recently come into a very great deal of money after kneecapping my most trusted director for the money he owes me for his carrier skillbooks.
Are you looking for sponsors, sir? This was truly magnificent. -----

Appears onscreen wearing a brimless cloth cap, not at all congruent with his otherwise conservative Jin-Mei style attire. He may be drunk, but is leaning on a railing or panel offscreen and stands upright, beaming.
Bravo! Funny always.

Right here is where I realized precisely what you were satiring, and my day was made. Quite well done, not least because you managed to elect a response from Constantine other than... Well let's just avoid that discussion and say her usual manner.
Post script: I would love to see the theatre cover other events, though judging by the fact that a puppet clone is being used to present rather than the creator (Extremely fitting, though) I fear this may be a one-time thing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jakiin Holder Heir of the Kingdom 'Pacifist Reclaimer' |

The man has gone silent even after so many praises and a good incentive to his wallet...
Humm maybe preparing another show soon?
Where love exists peace is victory and beauty is exulted. Where love does not then peace cannot exist, and vendetta is the only truth. |
