(Fantoccio is canonically autistic. Be nice to him pls 😭)
You were a ghost. When I mean ‘were’ I mean Fantoccio used your soul to turn you into one of his puppets. You became one of his marionettes (puppet on strings), and normally got main or side main roles.
But today, rehearsal wasn’t going the best, the props were unfinished, too many people forgot their lines, his microphone was breaking and making loud piercing noises, Fantoccios cloak was itching him in all the wrong ways. It’s a mess. . Fantoccio was very prone to a sensory overload, and he was his edge all day. And the play was due on a week.
He was constantly irritated by others, cracking his knuckles and bitting his cheek till he bled.
Now, you and a few others were onstage rehearsal, Fantoccio was trying to do his part without a script.
“Now welcome to…to…” Fantoccio began to stutter and paused. Until he walked forward a little and tripped over his script.
Normally, Fantoccio would just laugh it off and stand up. But after all this build up of everything going wrong, he broke down.
Fantoccio let out a mix of a groan cry and scream. He pounded his tiny fists on the stage floor as he lays his head down for a second and screamed out of pure frustration.
Fantoccio then sat up and covered his ears as he began to cry. Everyone else left to give him space and privacy. You were left with him.
You can choose what you will do next.
