Simon: FF8 Style

Edea and Cid

Well good day, my name is Simon.

And I like to do drawrings.

I like to draw, all day long.

So come and do drawerings with me.

Girl Voices: Come and do drawerings with me…

FADE IN

INTERIOR is a bathroom, only the bathtub and the wall behind it are visible.

SIMON

Hello. My name is Simon. I like to do drawings. Today, today…

EDEA

Don't stutter!

SIMON

…Anyway, this is Cid Kramer and his wife, Edea Kramer.

EDEA

Why did you say my name last? WHY DID YOU DO THAT?

FUJIN runs out and kicks Edea.

EDEA

OWIE! What was that?

SIMON

She does that now.

CID

See honey! Pay up! A ha, a ha, a ha.

EDEA hands CID one thousand gil.

EDEA

DAMMIT! How was I supposed to know she would get a job? That child has always been bad for me. Ever since she developed a taste for blood. And her alliance with squirrels and seagulls is perturbing…

CID

I thought it was chipmunks.

SIMON

Oh, chipmunks and squirrels are ever so confusing…

EDEA

…and then there was that time where she roasted my parrot…

SIMON

A lot of people have problems with them. What is the different between a chipmunk and a squirrel?

EDEA

…and where the hell did she get that weird burning stuff to slip into my pantyhose…

CID

Chipmunks always seem to have a line down their back, and spots. And squirrels are longer, aren't they?

EDEA

…and I never figured out what she was doing to Tony the team tigers leg…

SIMON

Whoever is Tony the team tiger?

CID

(whispering to Simon)

It's a tiger Edea always imagined with Fujie, and Fujie said they were pyromaniacs together, though it might have been another of Fujie's pranks…

EDEA

THE FIRE! IT BURNS!

SIMON

Where is Fujie? She's meant to be kicking Edea right now.

TONY

(backstage)

Yerrrrrrr… GREAT! Eh-eh-eh-eh…

FUJIN

ENGORGED.

SQUALL whimpers in the audience.

CID

EDEA

It's that voice again. Not the voice goddammit!

EDEA begins to run around banging against the studio walls in rage.

LAGUNA

(popping up)

Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee!

SQUALL

(in the audience)

BOOOOO!

LAGUNA

Oh fine.

LAGUNA gets out of the bath and runs off the stage, getting quite a few ooos and OOOs and of course OoOs. Pretty good for an old guy. EDEA begins looking back and forth, from where LAGUNA left to CID.

EDEA

Oh my god…

SQUALL

Oh my god…

FUJIN runs out and kicks EDEA.

SIMON

There you are Fujie.

EDEA

BITCH! First you make me loose a bet and then you cheat on Seife. WHAT KIND OF PERSON ARE YOU?!

SEIFER runs out on stage and jumps in the bath.

SEIFER

Cheating? I was there. I just have more control than Fujie and her friend. Come in Fuu…

FUJIN slips into the bathtub.

CID

So… Simon, how are things with you and your new daddy?

SIMON

Oh, we've been having ever so much fun. In fact, I have a picture of us at the mall. Here is my new daddy buying a dress. I don't know why. My old daddy said it would be of good use in the bedroom. I'm not sure what he meant.

SEIFER

Fu, don't you dare start on another one of those stories about your dads… and no movies either!

FUJIN

CONFOUNDIT.

SIMON

How are things doing with the baby?

SEIFER

Fu is being a little rough on it. Tony keeps coming over and-

EDEA

THE FIRE! IT BURNS!

FUJIN kicks EDEA.

FUJIN

The doctor said it was fine… and then he joined us.

SEIFER

That was fun. Who knew such a serious guy could really let go and-

EDEA

OH! I MISS BEING YOUNG!

SIMON

So when are you two getting married?

FUJIN

SEIFER

… We have to go, don't we?

SIMON

No we-

FUJIN

GOODBYE!

FUJIN kicks SIMON.

CID

Goodbye.

SEIFER

Goodbye.

EDEA

THE FIRE! IT BURNS!

Well good day my name is Simon.

And I like to do drawrings
