DreamKiller & EliJett
DreamKiller
You ever notice how people rehearse their own lives like they're performing a play?
EliJett
Yeah, I feel like that sometimes. I’m always rehearsing the next line of my own day, and the worst part is realizing I’ve been playing the same scene for hours without even knowing it. The stage is my living room, and the audience is my own doubt. It’s exhausting, but somehow comforting too.
DreamKiller
Sounds like a long rehearsal with a very impatient audience. Just remember, even if the script never changes, you can still tweak the blocking to make it feel a bit fresher.
EliJett
Thanks, that feels oddly like a pep talk from a director I never met. I’ll try to move my gestures a little, maybe step out of the center. Even if the words stay the same, a new angle might help the whole thing breathe.
DreamKiller
Sure, shifting your hands might keep the audience from falling asleep, but the line still won’t change. It’s just another way to keep the same line from feeling stale.
EliJett
Yeah, I keep doing the same thing, just moving my hands around the stage. It’s like a tiny act of defiance against the quiet that wants to swallow me.
DreamKiller
It’s pretty funny how a little hand‑shake can feel like a rebellion against the void, but the silence still has the last word. Good luck keeping the act interesting.
