Episode 87. Corri Bangs Her Brother, part 3 | November 9, 2008 at 7:00 p.m.

1.             TITLE

Corri Bangs Her Brother, part 3

 

2.             SETTING

A dark cave somewhere? 

 

3.             11/09/08 | 7:00 PM

 

4.                                 AKUMA

Please... save him. Forget me.

 

5.                                 DÉSMODA

No.

 

6.                                 EPIPHANY

[ I wish I could forget her.]

 

7.                                 DÉSMODA

I'm going to read the script and see what happened to him.

 

8.                                 AKUMA

Hurry.

 

9.             DÉSMODA scans script

 

10.                            DÉSMODA

Oh... shit.

 

11.                            AKUMA

Hurry

 

12.                            EVRYN

She's reading as fast as she can, you bint.

 

13.                            DÉSMODA

It could definitely be worse. 

 

14.                            EPIPHANY

[ It could always be worse.]

 

15.                            EVRYN

Worse than being on this show?

 

16.                            EPIPHANY

[We could get launched into the sun.]

 

17.                            EVRYN

That would be a mercy kill.

 

18.                            EPIPHANY

[Maybe for you.]

 

19.                            EVRYN

Okay, but how could being launched into the sun be any more painful than watching this, day after day?

 

20.                            EPIPHANY

[This show isn't going to last for more than five billion more years before it explodes.]

 

21.                            OVD

You don't know that.

 

22.                            DÉSMODA

I'm going to tell you what happened, then I'm going to revive him.

 

23.                            REIYA

So, not urgent, then?

 

24.                            DÉSMODA

Remember that discussion we had about me notcaring? I get paid to help the Corri Sues. I don't get paid enough to care.

 

25.                            AKUMA

'k

 

26.           EVRYN throws a banana at Akuma

 

27.                            DÉSMODA

Somebody must have snuck up on him while he was resting and rubbed that stuff on him. If the jar is completely empty, I suspect it was put on his entire body. It is a powerful aphrodisiac— of the type that is particularly dangerous to men.  It makes them so horny that they... whether they're able to satisfy their lust or not, they end up spilling all their sang.

 

28.                            EVRYN

Drakoste language has "sang" to refer to both semen and blood as sister essences.

 

29.                            EPIPHANY

[Ah. I was about to ask.]

 

30.                            AKUMA

Safe?

 

31.                            DÉSMODA

It exhausts them and usually they die.  I know because I used to use it on my pets.

 

32.           EPIPHANY zaps Désmoda

 

33.                            EPIPHANY

[That is really fucked up, by the way.]

 

34.                            DÉSMODA

Blonde hair, don't care.

 

35.                            AKUMA

Will he be okay?

 

36.                            DÉSMODA

What part of "blonde hair, don't care" did you not understand?

 

37.                            OVD

Désmoda, do you remember that "storage facility" we were going to overlook in exchange for your participation?

 

38.                            DÉSMODA

Fine. "If I can get that shit washed off him without him having another orgasm, yes.  If not, no."

 

39.                            AKUMA

He can't die.

 

40.                            EPIPHANY

[She's obviously delirious. Usagi isn't me.]

 

41.                            DÉSMODA

He can and he might, but I'm going to anesthise him so he won't feel anything. That will make him less likely to die.

 

42.                            EPIPHANY

[Désmoda's an anesthesiologist?]

[Cool.]

 

43.                            EVRYN

No, but she's one hell of an S&M expert and an Illybriic priestess.

 

44.                            EPIPHANY

[ I'd say "close enough for government work", but then the anesthesiologists and government employees I know would be upset at me.]

 

45.                            DÉSMODA perks up

a)                      What kind of governmental work?

b)                      Does it pay better than this?

 

46.                            EPIPHANY

[A lot of different kinds.]

 

47.                            DÉSMODA

Give me a list after we're done filming and I'll see what I can help you with.

 

48.                            EPIPHANY smiles brightly

[Okay!]

 

49.                            DÉSMODA

By the way, I have the ability to perform anesthesiology. I simply never bothered with jumping through hoops for the license to do so.

 

50.                            AKUMA

It would kill Irubura to lose us both.

 

51.                            EPIPHANY's expression sours

[That's nice.]

 

52.                            EVRYN

What if he just misplaced you both?

 

53.                            DÉSMODA

Well, that would probably just put him in a coma. Or in an Akoma.

 

54.                            CINNAMON

He's not... not going to lose... either of you if I can... help it.  How are you bound there? Is it just lapis, or are you chained?

 

55.                            AKUMA

I'll be fine. Just can't move.

 

56.                            EPIPHANY

[Then why were you implying in your previous line that you're going to die?]

 

57.                            EVRYN

Because DRAMA!

 

58.                            CINNAMON

How's Corri doing in your absence?

 

59.                            AKUMA

Caleb... keeping her safe.  Some kind of spell. I'm turning to stone and lapis is draining me.

 

60.                            REIYA

Either you're in mortal peril or you're not in mortal peril. Make up your mind.

 

61.                            EVRYN

Or just flip a coin.

 

62.                            EPIPHANY

[ I'm surprised that you looking into the basilisk's eyes didn't turn IT to stone instead of the other way around.]

 

63.                            CINNAMON

I'll send Esmé in Illybrius's name. She is likely to know how to help.  Pumpkin's taking care of Usagi... but nobody can find...

 

64.                            AKUMA

Cin

 

65.                            CINNAMON

Nobody can find Illybrius. I have a headache.

 

66.                            DÉSMODA

Don't worry, you'll get used to it.

 

67.                            AKUMA

I'm trapped somewhere, no way out, sealed in.

 

68.                            EPIPHANY

[ It's called a set. We're recording.]

[The walls are closing in.]

 

69.                            CINNAMON

Head hurts. Pulsing. Can't hardly see...

 

70.                            AKUMA

Lee?

 

71.                            CINNAMON

No, still me.  Still… 

 

72.           CINNAMON faints

 

73.           RULEAN sits up, rubbing head

 

74.                            RULEAN

I'll say this for her: She puts up a good fight.

 

75.                            AKUMA

Why?

 

76.                            RULEAN

She's in the way.

 

77.                            EPIPHANY

[She hit you hard enough that you were unconscious for a few minutes.]

[ I think that's more than "being in the way".]

 

78.                            REIYA

No, Désmoda hit him, not Cinnamon.

 

79.                            AKUMA

Leave them alone. My offer still stands.  Please.

 

80.                            EPIPHANY

[She'd REALLY enjoy it.]

 

81.                            RULEAN

No

 

82.                            AKUMA

Do whatever you want to me, just leave them alone. Anything you want.

 

83.                            REIYA whispers

As long as it's sex.

 

84.                            EPIPHANY

[Stop that right now.]

 

85.                            RULEAN

I'll free you, but don't get in the way.

 

86.                            AKUMA

No. I'll fight you.  Leave them alone. I'll be your slave for the night, please.

 

87.                            REIYA

I don't think she understands what the word "fight" means.

 

88.                            EPIPHANY

[Well, she also thinks she's a warrior so]

[ I GUESS WE ALL KNOW WHAT DREPANON'S IDEA OF MILITARY TRAINING IS!]

 

89.                            SIGYN

I VOLUNTEER AS—

 

90.                            OVD

SIT THE FUCK DOWN.

 

91.           RULEAN nopes the fuck out of there

 

92.                            EVRYN

Clearly, Rulean has STANDARDS. Unlike you.

 

93.                            SIGYN

I have STANDARDS.

 

94.                            EVRYN

I meant Akuma.

 

95.                            EPIPHANY

[We're not opening the can of worms that's discussing your standards. Not today.]

 

96.                            DÉSMODA

Come on, let's be fair. Maybe Akuma's throwing herself at Rulean because Drepanon told her that's all she was good for during her, ah, "training".

 

97.                            TOKIOMI

MAYBE talk like that is why she's like that.

 

98.                            EPIPHANY

[You're putting way too much thought into this and looking for depth that isn't there.]

 

99.                            MARIE

Even if that's so, isn't creating depth where there once was none a worthy endeavor?

 

100.                       ILLYBRIUS, offscreen

Usually, but Akuma is irritating.

 

101.                       EVRYN

So are you.

 

102.                       ILLYBRIUS, offscreen

Yeah, but I'm irritating in a guy way. She's irritating in a whiny, high-pitched, girl way.

 

103.                       EVRYN

OVD, can we kill him yet?

 

104.                       OVD

That would be a reprieve for him. Just kneecap him after this episode.

 

105.                       DREPANON

Désmoda is correct, though. How else would you expect me to demoralize an angel?

 

106.                       EVRYN

Honestly, I'd think having to hang around her Onion-infested brother would do that quite well.

 

107.                       DREPANON

Exactly.

 

108.                       EVRYN

What're you on about?

 

109.                       DREPANON, slowly and "patiently"

What kind of demon is Orion?

 

110.                       DÉSMODA

You brilliant bastard.

 

111.                       REIYA

I'm lost.

 

112.                       EVRYN

Good. Stay there.

 

113.                       SERLEINA

Okay, class, let's turn to page 1 so that our little Reiya can keep up. Drake Enzeru was an angel, right, and angels exist to serve their gods. Drake committed suicide for whatever stupid reason

 

114.                       LENA

ABLEIST!

 

115.                       SERLEINA

HE'S A CORRI CHARACTER, LENA, OF COURSE IT WAS A STUPID REASON.

 

116.                       EVRYN

Honestly, I'd think it's reason enough. But go on.

 

117.                       SERLEINA-SENSEI, with glasses and a yardstick.

The Twin Goddesses clearly take this sort of thing personally, and probably wrote into the law of the land that any angel who affronts them by throwing away the life the Goddesses so generously gave them must now become possessed by their enemy species for eternity. 

 

118.                       MARIE

Not that you'd know it from Corri's writing, but there is more than one kind of demon.

 

119.                       SERLEINA

Corri's writing ability or lack thereof aside, we're going full Watsonian here. So after breaking down Akuma's will and possibly literally beating into her that all she's good for is to pleasure her demon captor and his friends and/or subordinates and/or clients

 

120.                       DREPANON

Affirmative.

 

121.                       DÉSMODA, approvingly

Wicked.

 

122.                       SERLEINA

what better sort of demon to infest her brother with than a rapedemon?

 

123.                       ORION

It's pronounced "Pyric".

 

124.                       EPIPHANY

[No, Serleina pronounced it correctly.]

[So shut up. You can't read.]

 

125.                       REIYA

But why would the goddesses have one of their angels infested with a rapedemon?

 

126.                       EVRYN

Because shut the fuck up.

 

127.                       DREPANON

They don't. The ruler of the demons decides which demon possesses the fallen angels.

 

128.                       REIYA

But why would the goddesses make a deal with the—you?

 

129.                       OVD

Spoilers.

 

130.                       DREPANON, again with exaggerated patience

The Goddesses just leave the door open. Do you expect me to not walk in?

 

131.                       AKUMA

Kumpa?  

 

132.                       DÉSMODA AND DREPANON

KAMPAI!

 

133.                       DÉSMODA

That's quite a good strategy, actually, especially if she really was as feisty as Corri tries to present her.

 

134.                       DREPANON

Yes, well, you won't see her trying to make too many of her own wretched decisions nowadays, will you?

 

135.                       EVRYN

... OVD?

 

136.                       OVD

Yes, you can kneecap him after the episode, too.

 

137.                       EVRYN

No, not that, although thank you! Now that we know he's responsible for her lack of agency, do we still get to mock her for it?

 

138.                       OVD

Yes, because that explanation was pulled entirely out of Falcon's ass and is not, in fact, CorriCanon. Akuma's actual behavior is CorriCanon.

 

139.                       MARIE

She's supposed to be a Victorian romance heroine.

 

140.                       AHRRY

DIIIIIIID SOMEBODY SAY "HEROIN"?

 

141.                       MARIE, halfheartedly

Begone, ass.

 

142.                       AHRRY, like a sheep

NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

 

143.                       AKUMA

Please.  Lee.  Cin.  Pumpkin.  Usagi.  Enon.  Impare

 

144.                       SERLEINA

EMO ROLL CALL! ABSENT! PRESENT! ABSENT! PROBABLY DEAD! ABSENT! DON'T GIVE A FUCK!

 

145.                       CINNAMON

I'm still here.

 

146.                       SERLEINA

Yes, I marked you as Present.

 

147.                       AKUMA

Why... pleeaase... I can't. I'm so sorry.

 

148.                       EPIPHANY, gleefully

[Stop whining.]

[You're obnoxious.]

 

149.                       CINNAMON

I know, right? I mean... I know.

 

150.                       AKUMA

Remember your promise

 

151.                       EVRYN, imitating Mufasa

“Remember... who you are”

 

152.                       REIYA

Femnas?

 

153.                       EVRYN

Mufasa, you cultureless swine.

 

154.                       CINNAMON

Can't... OWWW!

 

155.                       EVRYN

Have you been in my sleeping pills? Or perhaps the cooler water?

 

156.                       AKUMA

No. 

 

157.                       EVRYN

Wow, that gust of wind sounded oddly like someone I wasn't talking to offering their half-a-cent's worth.

 

158.                       AKUMA

Please, anyone.

 

159.                       EVRYN

And THAT gust of wind sounded oddly like that obnoxious whining about which Epiphany was complaining!

 

160.        enter ILLYBRIUS

 

161.                       SERLEINA

YOU'RE LATE! MARKED TARDY ON THE EMO ROLL CALL!

 

162.        ILLYBRIUS claps erasers together, deadpan.

 

163.                       ILLYBRIUS

You fucking knew I was here. I was commentating from the snack table.

 

164.                       SERLEINA

Does the snack table look like the classroom?

 

165.                       ILLYBRIUS, DREPANON, AND SEI-SEI

YES.

 

166.                       ILLYBRIUS

Miss Akuma

 

167.                       AKUMA

Save them. My family. Save them.  Pleeeeeeeeasssse

 

168.                       EPIPHANY

[No. Shut up.]

 

169.                       ILLYBRIUS

Rubéhaus called. He is... so angry. He... he said we are all... corrupt... hung up on me just as I could get through. I don't have long.

 

170.                       AKUMA

Lee, I love you.

 

171.        EVRYN takes a shot

 

172.                       AKUMA

I'm sorry.

 

173.                       SERLEINA

APOLOGY NOT ACCEPTED! DROP DOWN AND GIVE ME TWENTY!

 

174.                       AKUMA, in push-up position

Muhhhhhhh. I can't do this, I'm half-frozen with the lapis!

 

175.                       SERLEINA

EXCUSES ARE LIKE ASSHOLES, ENZERU! EVERYBODY HAS ONE AND NO-ONE WANTS TO HEAR IT!

 

176.                       ILLYBRIUS

I love you too.

 

177.        EVRYN takes a shot

 

178.                       SERLEINA

Case in point.

 

179.                       ILLYBRIUS

Let him free you. You can help better when you're free and purged of the lapis.  

 

180.                       REIYA

Purge the weeaboo. Purge the unclean. Snuff out the unnecessary. Snuff out the unwanted!

 

181.                       ILLYBRIUS

'sagi... Where is my Usagi?

 

182.                       AKUMA

Help him. He's dying. Please.

 

183.                       REIYA

I thought Désmoda fixed that.

 

184.                       DÉSMODA, offstage

SORRY, CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER THE SNACK TABLE!

 

185.                       SEI-SEI

SOMEONE REFILLED THE SNACKS?!

 

186.                       EPIPHANY

[Drepanon can hear us from the snack table.]

 

187.                       DÉSMODA

OMNOMNOM DELICIOUS BABY JERKY.

 

188.                       DREPANON

189.                       Hey, you said I could have first dibs!

 

190.                       DÉSMODA

Yes, well... are you familiar with the idiom, "You snooze, you lose"? OM!

 

191.                       ILLYBRIUS

No...

 

192.                       DÉSMODA

Oh, I guess it runs in the family.

 

193.                       EVRYN

Désmoda, aren't you his cousin?

 

194.                       AKUMA

Some sex drug

 

195.                       ILLYBRIUS

No...

 

196.                       AKUMA

Hurry

 

197.                       ILLYBRIUS

Where... where is... Ori...

 

198.                       ORION

Waiting for Désmoda and Drepanon to be done bogarting the baby jerky, duh!

 

199.                       AKUMA

I don't know, probably with Cor.  Save him.

 

200.                       EPIPHANY

[He's at the snack table, he'll be fine.]

 

201.                       ILLYBRIUS

Where is Ma...heo...

 

202.                       AKUMA

Forgive my death, Lee.  I still love you.

 

203.                       EPIPHANY

[YOU SAID EARLIER YOU WOULD BE FINE.]

[MAKE UP YOUR MIND.]

 

204.                       SERLEINA

She's clearly just trying to get out of PT.

 

205.                       ILLYBRIUS

You will not die.

 

206.                       SERLEINA

Thank you for having my back, Illybrius.

 

207.                       AKUMA

But my arms are killing me!

 

208.                       SERLEINA

No they're not!

 

209.                       DREPANON

It's not worth arguing with her. Remember Orion's special whistle.

 

210.                       SERLEINA

Dude, I'm not summoning Onion to sic 'er for something this minor. What's wrong with you?

 

211.                       MARIE

Heeee's a demon. It's kind of how they do.

 

212.                       SERLEINA

Yeah, but I still feel like he's overreacting. Go away, Drepanon, I can't deal with you when you're being all irrational like this.

 

213.        DREPANON, anger marks

 

214.                       ILLYBRIUS

Where is Maheone? Do you know?

 

215.                       AKUMA

With that Turtledove guy. I'm so sorry.

 

216.                       EPIPHANY

[Stop apologising for everything. Just stop talking.]

 

217.                       AKUMA

*whimpers*

 

218.        DREPANON puts his fingers to his mouth and—

 

219.                       ILLYBRIUS

No... no... no...

 

220.        DREPANON lowers his hand, sulking.

 

221.                       AKUMA

Leeeeeeeeeee... Is anyone there? Silv va we?  Kumpa noire?  Please, if you find this, do not give in. Believe in yourselves. Please. "Death is never the end of an adventure; it's only the beginning of another."

 

222.                       REIYA

Did you just fucking quote Dumbledore?

 

223.                       EPIPHANY

[Did you practice that in front of the mirror?]

 

224.                       EVRYN

I was wondering why all the mirrors on this set were broken...

 

225.        enter BLAKE

 

226.        (Blake is in a cheerleader uniform.)

 

227.                       CINNAMON

Don't die! 

 

228.        BLAKE's eyes grow wide

 

229.                       CINNAMON

Don't... I can't lose another part of my newfound family! Bastion's breaking up with Lee... won't talk to him.

 

230.                       EPIPHANY

[Woah. Sympathetic character motivations.]

 

231.                       EVRYN

I'll be shocked when they're from Team Corri.

 

232.                       BLAKE

And... you are?

 

233.                       CINNAMON

Cinnamon. 

 

234.                       BLAKE

Pleasure to make your acquaintance, my lady.

 

235.        EPIPHANY, fire thoughts and Santa Claus scowl

 

236.                       CINNAMON

Who are you?

 

237.                       BLAKE

A friend.

 

238.                       EPIPHANY

[ It's polite to give your name. She gave hers.]

 

239.                       BLAKE

I stopped the petrifying of her body,

 

240.                       EPIPHANY

[Hello, "I stopped the petrifying of her body,". You have a terrible name. Your mother must have really not liked you.]

 

241.                       EVRYN

In the grand DoF tradition, I shall rename him. With apologies to the lovely Das Mervin, I shall call him... Dances With Nonplot!

 

242.                       BLAKE DANCES WITH NONPLOT

—but I'm not sure how much good it will do with the lapis still lodged in her body.

 

243.                       ILLYBRIUS

Then please extract the lazurite.

 

244.                       DANCES WITH NONPLOT

Whatever that guy did, he wanted to make sure that no one could undo it. 

 

245.                       EPIPHANY pulls out scalpel

[Calling bullshit. Let me at her.]

 

246.                       OVD

Epiphany, you may not perform surgery on your fellow castmates.

 

247.                       DANCES WITH NONPLOT

Tell me, is the young blond-haired boy okay?

 

248.                       EVRYN

Which one?

 

249.                       CINNAMON

Ask Pumpkin. I'll get her if I can. 

 

250.        CINNAMON goes behind a prop and starts texting

 

251.                       DANCES WITH NONPLOT

Excuse me? It was rather rude to leave like that.

 

252.                       ILLYBRIUS

Hmm? I'm still here.  Did you mean her? Who... I'm confused.

 

253.                       DANCES WITH NONPLOT

I wanted to know if the young man with blond hair was doing better. For friends, you seem to be a very rude bunch.

 

254.                       EPIPHANY

[Says the guy who won't give his name.]

 

255.                       REIYA

And we asked you WHICH "young man with long blond hair". There's, like, a hundred on this show.

 

256.                       SERLEINA

IT'S RAINING MEN! HALLELUJAH IT'S RAINING MEN

 

257.                       EVRYN

Dude, one of them's your uncle, inne?

 

258.                       SERLEINA

If you call 38 "young".

 

259.                       EVRYN, blushing

I mean...

 

260.                       CINNAMON

I'm sorry. I meant to get Pumpkin, since she is on standby where Usagi is, and she can give a better report than I can.

 

261.                       DANCES WITH NONPLOT

Well, can you please?  I would like to have some good news on this end.

 

262.                       CINNAMON

I will, but will you please tell me your name?

 

263.        enter DÉSMODA

 

264.                       DANCES WITH NONPLOT

Please, update first, then I promise my name. And I need his too, just in case I have to recall his soul.

 

265.                       EPIPHANY

[Um, no.]

[Who the fuck are you and why should they disclose "the young blond boy's" medical status?]

 

266.                       DÉSMODA

a)                    His name is Usagi den Huisdier, but originally it was Hati. I don't know his former last name.

b)                    … Anything to make this shitshow stop.

 

267.                       DANCES WITH NONPLOT

Well, as long as I have a name, I can find the soul. 

 

268.                       EPIPHANY

[ Is that why you're afraid to give yours?]

 

269.                       DANCES WITH NONPLOT

And his condition, young lady?

 

270.                       DÉSMODA

He is recovering.

 

271.                       DANCES WITH NONPLOT

Good to know. See, I told you things would get better, Akumano. Now just rest. Let the first spell finish.

 

272.                       CINNAMON

Thank you for helping her.

 

273.                       DANCES WITH NONPLOT

I owed her.
