Summary: He ended up in a world where the show Phineas and Ferb had average writing and songs, the show was looking for a new writer for a low salary. It would be a crime if he didn't attempt to fix it.
I do not Skip Beat or Phineas and Ferb.
Enjoy!
"Are you a really a guy?"
Came a man as he looked at the person who applied for a writer, the person had a golden-eyes and had pretty lips; he actually looked like the girl, who had a commercial recently.
The guy sighed and said. "I've been asked that many times but I am indeed a guy." his voices was clearly a guy voice.
Ever since he came to this world, he was constantly being mistaken for a girl, and people looked surprised when he went to a male toilet or opened his mouth.
At first, he too thought he had turned into a girl but a quick look at down below proved otherwise, he felt like he was 16 years old instead 24 years old.
The man looked at him before saying. "Even if its part-time. As long as you can write a beginning, middle and end. Then you've got the job."
It wasn't like amazing writers were knocking at the door.
That's terrible. Thought Shawn, no wonder the show was mediocre despite having the budget for songs.
But then again, this show wasn't anime and looked like it should come from America.
America animation wasn't big in this world.
"What's your name?" Said, the man.
"My name is Shawn" Said, the guy. "No last name."
And the man understood, he was most likely an orphan who was looking to get a job to survive by himself.
"We'll, Shawn. Tomorow you will start" He said.
"Thank you, sir" Said, Shawn before heading out of the door and heading to his one-bedroom small apartment, that was barely an apartment.
Back in his world, he had fallen asleep watching Phineas and Ferb reruns, the next thing he know, he was in somebody else's body and was in a world where unless it was Anime, animated show's didn't get good writers so Phineas and Ferb did not have that special something that made people enjoy animated show's even when animation was going flat.
In fact, the treatment towards animated show's in this world was appalling, it was firmly believed that animated tv shows was just for kid's and they couldn't appeal to adults at all.
Nobody took it seriously.
We'll, he could start work this early as long he did some studying and passed his exam's, which with an adult mind, he would pass easily.
He took his laptop and began to start writing, people would be wondering why he was writing for animated show at home but the extra time was worth it.
He wondered what storyline he would do.
He remembered the song that started it all by becoming a huge hit.
Gitchee Gitchee Goo.
If the world doesn't hear this song than it would be a crime.
That night he ate pot noddle, before morning came and he rode the bus to his workplace where he met the room of writers who didn't look like they cared about their job.
"Are you really a guy?" Somebody asked instantly and he sighed.
"Yes" He said, before he asked. "When we are done writing one episode and storyboarding it, where do we submit it?"
The person rose an eyebrow before saying. "Just submit it to the desk and somebody will come at the end of the day to take it to the music people and be voiced."
"That's it?" He said, that was really lazy.
The person shrugged before they both took a seat, he opened his old laptop and finished up the script before turning to the storyboard paper on the desk in front of him.
He had drawn the character for years when he was bored, so skills better not fail him now.
It took him four whole days just to storyboard the whole thing when he finished, he had the storyboard in a buddle with the script and put it on the desk.
When the guy came to kart it to the music people, the people had nothing to do and Shawn quickly found he could visit them.
When he heard what they had done with the instrumental from the line's he had given them, he was appalled.
They had completely butchered it, and he know they wanted to change the lyrics because it wouldn't fit for this type of music.
"Excuse me" He said and they both turned to look at him.
"Who are you?" Said, one man.
"I'm the person whose song your butchering" He said, outright.
Both of them looked like they had been slapped.
"When I wrote the song, this is what I imagined the beat to be," He said before he began to sing the song from memory.
When they heard him sing, their eyes were wide and the person passing by turned with wide eyes.
Because when he sung with a particular tone, you could tell it was a amazing song.
When he finished, both of them stared at him with an opened mouth and then they recalled what they produced and they had no choice but to admit that they had butchered his vision.
"C-Can, you sing it again?" Said, one person.
Shawn eyes widened before he smiled and said. "Sure"
Let's do this song justice.
When the beat was tight, the voice actors were called in to sing the song, the look of pure surprise when they read the actually good line was nothing when they head the music for the song.
"Who was the one who wrote this script?" Said, the voice actor for Phineas.
"A new guy from the writing room," Said, the person on the other side.
Then the music began to play, and he was forced to sing on time, the music forced him to sound certain words differently, or it won't sound right.
When everybody vocals were recorded, they were all stunned by how amazing it sounded and they even had the producer for the show listen to it; the man was stunned to hear it was from the new guy.
The episode was quickly put into the production, while Shawn felt somebody hovering around him as he wrote more episode and the music producers actually came to him for his input in the song he wrote.
Meanwhile the episode was being translated in English for the English speakers.
The other writers after hearing his first song, began to look at him strangely.
But when they heard his second song which involved Dr Doofenshmirtz who found an evil woman and fell in love instantly.
It was a touching song, and even the voice actors were touched and shocked by how good it was, it was shocking that it came from such a feminine looking 16-year boy.
They didn't know how they landed an amazing writer without anybody noticing, Shawn couldn't help but raise his eyebrow when the other writers came to him about their script.
But it was understandable because at the beginning of each episode their names were on the story so the audience could identify who wrote the best scripts and who's writing was terrible.
By three month's, Shawn had become the head writer, which was a promotion he didn't see at all and something crazy for somebody his age.
Meanwhile, when Shawn got his pay check, he went shopping to look more manlier, even if he had to buy fake glasses to do it.
Now he had his hair cut short; he wore fake glasses, he had red checker shirt, jeans and high-tops.
It wasn't easy living in the same city as Japan's best entertainers; sometimes a whole neighbourhood would be blocked due to shooting a show, he happened to see Ren Tsuruga from afar and couldn't believe how manly the guy looked.
Tall, bulky and had a nice face.
It was not fair that somebody could be born with such genes when he was pretty sure, the females at the company wanted to dress him in girl clothes.
He also caught sight of a girl who looked like him but was dressed in a hideous pink jumpsuit gluing herself to Ren Tsuruga side.
After he turned 17, the episode he wrote aired, and it was so surreal seeing his script being animated before his very own eyes.
It was weird hearing different voice's coming from each character, but he got used to it quickly.
And then the song Gitchee Gitchee made its debut and he had to give props to the singers, although it was not Sho Fuwa vocals good, it was still good.
The next morning, he thought he would never knew the public's reaction but he was very shocked to hear the song being played by a group of teenagers on the streets.
"What song is that?" Said, one guy, it was catchy.
"It's actually from an episode I watched last night." Said, the guy playing it. "Last night episode was hilarious"
"What episode and show?" Said, his friends interested
Shawn went into the bus and went to the company, he sat down and come up with a script while he corrected everybody else's work.
He still had no idea how big the song was getting with the public as he was too busy to notice.
And then the end of the month, Japans music charts came out.
"Sho!" Said, his manager Shoko.
"What, Shoko?" Said, the teenager. "You don't have to shout. I'm right here."
"I just received the music charts for this month" Said, his manager.
"That's it?" Said, Sho. "You don't have to tell me I got number one. I already know"
He ruled the music scene in Japan.
"You didn't this time, Sho" Said, Shoko, startling the teen. "You came in second place."
"Huh?" Sho said, "What did you say, Shoko?"
"Your number 2" She said, knowing when this was public there would be a huge uproar. "The number spot is a song called 'Gitchee Gitchee Goo'. It's not even a stand along song, it came from an animated show"
"WHAT!?" Sho said, not expecting competition from there.
When the public saw and heard he had become second, there was a massive uproar, and the noise got people interested in the song that bumped Sho Fuwa off his throne.
Those who heard were stunned and even watched the whole episode to get better context, they found themselves laughing.
What made the song great was the lyrics and the person 'Shawn' was credited for the episode and writing of the song.
When the second episode written by Shawn aired, there was no mistaking it, the song they were greeted with was magical and heart-warming, it hit the charts once again making it to number one despite having inferior singing.
The gags were hilarious too.
Sho Fuwa, who had ruled the roost couldn't understand, he thought it was a fluke the first time but to lose the number one spot twice to the same person?
Even those overseas were praising the writing of the songs.
Who know that you make song's that weren't about loving somebody?
Who was Shawn?
This was what everybody wanted to know.
They all imagined he was an old man.
When Shawn next episode came out, it was near Christmas time and Shawn really went all out with his style of his song and people were laughing so hard, especially when Doofenshmirtz yelled "Kick Line"
People were singing it for Christmas.
Sho Fuwa lost to bad singing but a very fun song to sing.
"Huh?" Shawn said, blinking.
"Several studio's wish to talk to you about writing a song or an episode for them" Said, the producer for the show.
Shawn didn't know it but their viewers were quickly realising that the show reached hilarious new heights when it was written by him.
Seeing the success of the songs written by him, some singers wanted to sing on the show as well.
The Producer wasn't going to tell Shawn, that there was talk of a movie because they wanted to see if he could continue this solid episode streak to earn the show one.
"Hmm" Shawn said. "What is the highest paying offer and for how long"
"The highest paying job is from Lory Majestic Entertainment" Said, the man, shocking the other writers.
What?
LME!?
"They want you to write one episodes for this show, Hairspray." Said, the man. "It included one song"
"What?" Shawn said, "It won't happen to be happen to be a show about black and white people not allowed to dance together on tv?"
"Yes?" Said, the man, not understanding why he was so excited.
Hairspray! Shawn remembered fondly that movie, he especially loved the song's 'You Can't Stop the Beat' and 'Run and Tell That'.
"I would do it even if they don't pay me!" Shawn said, with blazing eyes.
Everybody moved away from the flaming guy.
And scene!
Next chapter, Shawn enters LME and find out he's completely ignored by the person looking for him thinking he's Kyoko Mogami, so he has to find the president and the man is very hard to get the attention of despite the man being so flashy. Review/fav and follow!
