Imitations = Fun
Haha...Jillian and I were considering what would happen if we skipped school tomorrow and had a "Movie Day." By far the most amusing thought involved Graves' reaction, which I was all too happy to predict...coupled with an imitation of his usual orchestra antics.
For best results, picture Graves with 4 cups of coffee in him, during the usual 4th Period rehersal. If that image proves too grotesque, simply imagine his frantic, slurred speech, when he gets so excited he trips over his own words.
MKS86: "where were you yesterday?"
MKS86: "sick, huh? oh, right!" ::gravey scoff::
MKS86: ::droll pools on sides of mouth:: start at number 3! ::raises arms::
MKS86: ::drops arms and shakes head obsessively::
MKS86: no. no. no. no. no. i'm sorry. no.
MKS86: you're not ready.
MKS86: no.
MKS86: ::raises arms again::
MKS86: ::drops arms and rolls eyes:: no! no. you're not ready; i'm sorry! no.
MKS86: i'm not going to start till you're all ready.
MKS86: ::raises arms::
MKS86: ::grunts, sending spittle flying everywhere, and gives downbeat::
MKS86: ::stops after two measures:: ohoo! i went faster there! you've gotta stay with me!
MKS86: ::raises arms again::
MKS86: ::gives two measures for nothing this time::
MKS86: *someone comes in early*
MKS86: ::disgusted look:: i said two measures for nothing!"
MKS86: "is that so hard?"
MKS86: ::raises arms (fifth time now)::
MKS86: ::gives downbeat::
MKS86: ::drops arms after one line::
MKS86: ::points at random second violin::
MKS86: ::tired look:: what note am i going to complain about? {if you're in orchestra and not screaming the note now, something's wrong with you}
MKS86: *second violin replies* C#? ~sidenote: second violin was neither paying attention nor playing; they just know by default which note it is~
MKS86: "very good! yes! seconds, you have to stretch for the C#s"
MKS86: ~side note #2: C#s were fine; it was the note directly before/after/in a different place that was off, or graves was just being a moron~
MKS86: ::raises arms again::
MKS86: ::drops arms::
MKS86: no
MKS86: cellos.
MKS86: play this for me.
MKS86: start at letter F ~side note #3: orch had just been playing at letter D~
MKS86: *cellist:* um, mr. graves...did you mean letter F?
MKS86: ::ignores cellist::
MKS86: ::raises arms::
MKS86: ::gives downbeat...half section starts at D, other half at F::
MKS86: what's wrong? i told you letter D!
MKS86: *orchestra* No! you said F! (repeat 248573908x)
MKS86: Ohh, well letter D then ::raises arms:: (8th time i think)
MKS86: ::gives measure for nothing:: 1..2..3..4..::gives downbeat::
MKS86: ::doubles tempo::
MKS86: ::cellos fall apart::
MKS86: ::stops conducting::
MKS86: no.
MKS86: no.
MKS86: no. no. that's terrible. no.
MKS86: ::raises arms again:: look, i'll give you a measure for nothing.
MKS86: 1..2..3..4..::gives downbeat::
MKS86: ::halves tempo::
MKS86: ::celli fall apart again::
I'd have continued, but she had to go to bed...so check back tomorrow night for the finale =)
