Playwright Says: aaaaaaaaaaghhhhhh

[zukkokya]

[Kya lies in bed with laptop. Kya gets up, puts laptop on desk. Kya carries laptop to a chair. Kya sneaks onto YouTube. Kya looks up eighty-three music videos from the late nineties. Kya studies Japanese. Kya orders Pad Thai. Kya eats Pad Thai. Kya rereads The Love Suicides at Amijima. Kya drinks three liters of water. Kya looks at clock.]

KYA:
...Oops.

THEATRE HISTORY ESSAYS:
...You still only have three finished, don't you.

KYA:
Sure, finished. But the other five are already started!

THEATRE HISTORY ESSAYS:
You know, this really shouldn't be so challenging for a playwright.

KYA:
BANTERING DIALOGUE IS NOT THE SAME AS ANALYZING WOYZECK.

THEATRE HISTORY ESSAYS:
Hey, where are you going?

KYA:
TO THE GYM.

THEATRE HISTORY ESSAYS:
But --

KYA:
I NEED ENDORPHINS.

THEATRE HISTORY ESSAYS:
...You forgot your sanity.

KYA:
I. DON'T. WANT IT.

[Door slams.]

THEATRE HISTORY ESSAYS:
Was she wearing shoes at least?

[Subaru nods.]

THEATRE HISTORY ESSAYS:
Well, small blessings.

[Yasu enters. Subaru gives V sign. Yasu and Subaru make out on bed.]

THEATRE HISTORY ESSAYS:
...Why am I still here?

I am!

"Chikamatsu Monzaemon, a playwright who lived during the Tokugawa shogunate, is known as Japan’s Shakespeare. Deciding kabuki was too disloyal to its playwrights, he wrote the majority of his plays for the bunraku stage. He believed bunraku allowed for deeper complexity for its characters and put less focus on the prestige of its actors the way kabuki did."

There, see? I'm working!

When did you write that bit? Because it totally does not count as doing your work if you wrote it this morning AND THEN DID NOT ADD ANYTHING SINCE. *eyes*

I WROTE IT AN HOUR AGO, THANK YOU.

[araanaz9.livejournal.com]

I'd ask what you've been doing in the last hour but I'll stop distracting you instead. Keep up the good work.

I've been reading Woyzeck. X__X

And now I'm going back to work. *sulk*
