16th Invasion

[moemoetentacles]

[Action; around town]

[Squid Girl's got a new project she's working on, so today she's excitedly running around town sidelining random people on the streets to see if they want to help her out.  She might also be coming up to your door and knocking excitedly.  Special attention is paid to mousy, shy, or nervous looking types, but she's harassing more or less everyone she can find about this.]

Hey, hey!  Do you want to be in a movie?  My neighbor and I are making one, and it's gonna be great!

[Action for 1245 Williams Road]

[She also pays a visit to Taiwan's place in particular, because she's pretty sure she's gonna need a favor from her to make this thing go off without a hitch.  So she's knock-knock-knockin' on your door too.]

Taiwan!  Are you home?

I bet he kept it in a really small aquarium, though. With not a lot of room for it to swim around.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

No, it was gigantic. And approved by the National Committee of . . . Making Sure Aquariums Are Big Enough For Squids.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

There's really a committee for that?

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

. . . There could be. In the movie.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

And then maybe me and the pet squid team up to beat up the shark and throw it back into the ocean!

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

A-Absolutely. For sure. Definitely.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

That could work. As long as the squid win the fight with the shark and the humans promise to stop polluting the ocean, I guess I'm okay with that.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

. . . OK! I'll start writing the script for you right now!

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Okay! I'll be counting on you, then! Make sure it's interesting and scary enough before the squid makes friends with the humans, though, or nobody'll want to watch it.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Oh. Um. Maybe someone else should write the first part, then.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

I'll do that part, then. But the ending definitely has the humans worshipping the giant squid, right?

[That's what she heard, at least.]

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

. . . As their patron guardian. Right.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Okay, that's fine then!

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

But if they stop giving her shrimp and start polluting the ocean again, she'll definitely knock over their cities! That's why they keep worshipping her, right?

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Um. You'll have to ask them that.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

I bet that's it.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

I'm. Sure you're right. But we don't have to film that part.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

But then how would the audience know?

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

. . . We could put up a sign at the end.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

I guess that could work. It'd be more exciting if we showed it, though.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

But wouldn't that make the ending less satisfying?

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Do you think so?

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

If it was all happy and peaceful and then suddenly . . . ominous?

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

It's like one of those movies they show at the theater in town where it says 'THE END' but then there's scary music and a question mark after it!

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

The only movie I watched was about a pudding monster and I don't think that happened afterward.
