Chooseyourownadventurenovel.4 Epilogue

CHARLIE enters and stands under a spotlight. MERCER enters, remaining in darkness.

Charlie: It is a hunger. I’m hungry, I won’t apologise for that.

Mercer: You’re in the light.

Charlie: I won’t apologise for that.

Mercer: What have you learned?

Charlie: That you can’t peer too far into the scar, or you’ll reopen the wound.

Mercer: That’s pretentious.

Charlie: I’m not talking to you.
Mercer. When did you disappear? When…did you disappear?

Mercer: I never disappeared, I was always here. Always.

Charlie: When did I disappear?

Mercer: I could always see this vague outline. But it

Chooseyourownadventurenovel.3 The Fifteenth Chapter

(MERCER enters and sits cross-legged.)

Mercer: She didn’t pick up the phone. I called three times. It makes things hard – she never calls me back because I have Freetime and she doesn’t.

I saw one of them walking through our work yesterday. We work together.
My eyes crawled over him as his eyes sifted through the faceless staff. He couldn’t find her straight away – I can, I always can. I know how her body sits beneath that baggy shirt. How she scrunches her hair into the fraying hairband. Immediately, she will jump out.
He surveyed the scene, tentative. He wouldn’t approach the counter.

Chooseyourownadventurenovel.2 The Second-Last Chapter

(MERCER enters. He waits on stage for CHARLIE. It is predictable that she is not here yet.
CHARLIE finally walks onto stage, carrying a small potted plant.)

Charlie: I’m sorry.

Mercer: That’s alright, Charlie.
(Mercer notices the plant)
Aloe Vera?

Charlie: For healing.

Mercer: It won’t grow much bigger than that.

Charlie: Is that a problem?

Mercer: We could’ve let it grow up. (He chuckles, to disguise the fact he was being serious). I’ve had it rough the past couple of weeks. I wrote a song, too. How have you been?

Charlie: Very busy. Not enough sleep.
Do you want to start?

Charlie: Crimson eyes.

Mercer: That is a lie.

Charlie: Tumble out of my breast, tumble into your hands.

Mercer: That is a lie.

Charlie: Blinded by naïve fingers. Gently…

Mercer: That is a lie.

Charlie: My grasp is infinite. Infinite.

Mercer: I never believed you.

Charlie: (looks over at him)
That, is a lie.

Mercer: There’s a kick I get out of watching a female’s tedious demise. If I can’t find her, however, I discover that I’m enduring my own.

(The stage goes black.)

Scene n2 - BROTH Dom: I love this bed. I know the smell of the sheets. I love the way the cat hairs and tissues collect in the corners and change your pillow arrangement a little bit each time I come over. I know how we would relate if I slept in this bed. I can see it so clearly. I’d be on the right hand side. If you faced away I would draw delicate patterns on your back and if you faced me I would wrap my legs around you and stroke your forehead so you’d drift to sleep. I haven’t slept in your bed yet.

I’m here almost every day. Every day I sit on the edge as we talk and I can feel my weight impress upon your doona really gently. It spr

Scene n - BROTH Jill: Michael. I keep saying your name and changing my pronunciation of it. You know, like the inflections. Michael, Michael, Michael. Mich-aael. They say they consonants hold the meaning and vowels hold the emotion.

Jill: Michael.

Michael: Is there anything about me that doesn’t destroy you?

Jill: What?

Michael: I hear about when I hurt you. I seem to do that a lot. Do I do anything else to you? Do you feel anything else?

Jill: I don’t know what you’re talking about.

Michael: I’m really happy. You’re not happy, Jill.

Jill: No, I have moments; it’s just that some-

Michael: Are you happy?

Jill: I &#

It's so strange.
He breaks me into little pieces.
And you
just
don't.
You don't.

You did, though.

I wonder what she tasted like.
That wonder makes me squirm and convulse, like when eating lemons.
I used to eat lemons, whole. I loved it. I squirm now.
I wonder what they taste like.

I'm very competitive.

You faltered for a second.
And I felt almost weightless.
Nothing matters anymore. Nothing I can perceive, anyway.
Can I perceive nothing?
You should fish me out of this. Gently.

Get me out.

Not many of my clothes are clean.
Is this the start of something?

City We get a glow at night. Orange street lamps, always.
It's a broken hostage watch, because here everybody sleeps.
The lights stay on. When the roads are empty.
My head was spinning last night, as the bitumen was being washed.
Orange lights spinning. So, not everybody sleeps.

We get a glow in the morning. Plants and hills and houses redirecting rays.
It would warm me, perhaps, but I press my face into a pillow.
It's dirty. Dripped mascara, cheap and residual.
The nice light makes me nauseous, conditioning surrounding a new day.
There's a burn as I breathe in. There's a “fuck” as I fumble.

We get wind from the south. My hairCity by ~TheBestiolaAttacks
