This is a clone post from www.juliusgalacki.com Just so you know, I”ll be using Chicken’s website and my personal one for these “…Babylon” posts because that website www.limpingtowardsbabylon.com is being used a landing page with a re-direct to Kickstarter till Nov. 20.

Here’s a dialogue sample of the script I’ve been working on intensely with a great group of actors. If you want to support it by watching the video, sharing it on your platforms or better yet, direct communication, just go www.limpingtowardsbabylon.com
AMANDINE
Ah. He meant “E”…. We are a crazy bunch of people in this house, no? So much love, all for the wrong people.
She laughs. He half-laughs to hide that he doesn’t like the truth of that.
Then, she pulls her chair right next to his, and puts her head on his shoulder.
AMANDINE (CONT’D)
Oh, Thomas. I am such a bitch.
He wants to put his arm around her, but instead picks up one of the students’ papers and tries to remain casual.</
THOMAS
No, you’re not.
AMANDINE
But I am so dramatic!
THOMAS
That makes you interesting.
She takes her head off of his shoulder and looks him eye to eye.
AMANDINE
If I was your girlfriend, you would not say that.
She stands.
THOMAS
Oh… uh… I might.
AMANDINE
Ah! That’s why I love you Thomas Babcock.
Amandine’s accent makes her insert an extra half vowel into his name, sounding something like Toh-mas Bab-i-cock.
AMANDINE (CONT’D)
You lie to me so sweet.
