Annie Edison | Video | 001

[The video swings wildly up and down. Have some sky. Now some ballet flats. A flash of plaid and then sky again.]

Guys?

[The video stills as Annie peers at the device on her wrist.]

Is this an Inspector Space Time thing? Remember what I said about warning me when we were pretending outside of the Dreamatorium? I need advance notice. I have a test, I can't... [She rolls her eyes, realizing that if they've gone to this much trouble, it's inescapable.]

[She sighs, pursing her lips before taking a deep breath and talking animatedly, her eyes wide.]

Oi, Goven'r, this is Constable Geneva on Cape Kore requiring immediate extraction. Blimey, there are blorgons everywhere! [She glances around, her face falling momentarily.] And a test worth 25% of my grade on the morn! Hurry, Inspector! Constable Reggie!

[She pauses, furrowing her brow.] Anyone?

It starts with a K.

[ His name isn't that weird, Constable Geneva! ]

And I have watched him literally cry like a child.

[anniethedayplanner]

Annie. With an A.

[Okay, to be fair, She's lost count at how many times she's seen Troy cry like a child.]

Some people are more sensitive than others!

[There's definitely some reproach in her tone, Kobra with a K.]

That's no reason to call them names.

[goodluckkobra]

Wait, I need a reason to call people names?!

[ Stop the presses, motherfucker! ]

Who are you, the nickname police?

[anniethedayplanner]

No! There's no reason. I mean, it's sort of a trick question, because there's never really a reason...

[So not the point. Her eyes narrow.]

Maybe.

[goodluckkobra]

Cool, I hate cops. Which house is yours?

[ Trick question, Annie! ]

[anniethedayplanner]

Well, I hate bullies!

And I don't have one. Yet. So you can save the toilet papering or whatever else you're planning for some other time.

[goodluckkobra]

I'm not a fuckin' bully.

[ His eyes narrow. ]

I fight back against bullies. Pull that stick out of your ass.

[anniethedayplanner]

[She gasps and straightens up.]

You're a rude bully.

[Which she knows is redundant.]

Try looking up the word in the dictionary sometime. Verbal abuse is part of the definition.

[goodluckkobra]

[ He lets out a bark of laughter. ]

Blow me.

[ And then he cuts the feed. ]
