Hey! I've finally got round to updating this. Today for you I have something extra special. While snooping around, for Scorpion no doubt, Alissa found this. It is from behind the scenes of Tortall - The Stage Show! Today we have, Duke Roger and his agent...





Duke Roger (on a mobile [cell] phone) : No! You have to save me from this! What do you mean, the contract is binding? I'm the duke of Conte!

Agent: No, you stupid ghost, you aren't. Currently you're dead and if you start talking like Orzorne I'll do something drastic. Maybe vote for Alanna as champion commercials.

Roger: Bloody evil point taken. Seriously, you NEED to help me! They've let the fanfics run wild! I have to fall in love with Alanna and Gary, sing a duet with Neal who, I might add, wasn't even born in my time and is currently engaged in a ongoing poetry contest with a Big Blue Swirly Thing. Then, he's going to ask Tonitrus for a contest. I have to have numerous connections with unsavoury characters -

Agent: Hey Roger, in case it's slipped your mind, you are an unsavoury character. You are also very scarily the stereotypical high class charming European villain but that doesn't make you any less unique. Now, I told you when you signed on the dotted line that it wouldn't be a straightforward job, wait [pause] - are you POUTING young man?

Roger: [Sulking] Why aren't you afraid? I'm, like, the Duke of Conte, like hello!

Agent: Firstly, you've stolen that line from a, Orzorne and b, Kel the Valleygirl in Never Gonna Happen in Tortall! Secondly, you are coming with me and we are going to see the Tortall election committee. They need someone for that Alanna commercial...

Roger: Noooooo! Damn the democracy that is not even in Tortall! When I was a lad then good old dictatorship was enough but - [Pause. Roger suddenly looks scared out of his wits. Scorpion and Alissa walk in, Scorpion with a machine gun, Alissa with a flame-thrower.]

Alissa: Hey, It's that evil duke. You know, you've always been a role-model of mine...

Scorpion: Alissa, don't bother the evil Duke. We have work to do.

Alissa: Oh yeah. I'd apologise but I'm an evil cannibalistic muse. Hey Duke, got a free time in your schedule?

Roger: Uh, sure. Saturday, 5:30?

Alissa: No problem. We have a lot to discuss, you me and my flame-thrower.

[Scorpion and Alissa walk off smirking to find some poor, unsuspecting Mary Sue to torture. Roger suddenly realises what Alissa said]

Roger: Oh hell!





Sorry, that was a rather poor chapter. Next time will be better. I needed to get that one out of my system. Thanks for the reviews, Googlepuss, Scorpion and Keita. Next chapter we will be back to the scheduled viewing program. Ciao,

Dyana and Alissa
