The Colour of Paint
Grainne for Bonnie
Bonnie is Jude's younger sister, who he took care of as a child due to a neglectful and abusive family. The two are very close and loving. She has a successful career and a wealthy fiance. Bonnie finds herself slowly being pushed out of Jude's life amidst his battle with depression, and even more so when he becomes addicted to heroin. She eventually discovers the truth, and attempts to intervene.
Though originally from Scotland, she has lived in London for most of his life, so she may have either a combination of these accents, or one or the either. It's up to you! Her voice is feminine, delicate and comforting, but can also be fiery and passionate.
Here’s a fact! I don’t know if you know or not… but in Japan, cracked pottery is repaired with liquid gold. So the fact that it's been broken makes it so much more beautiful. That's how I see you, Jude. Your scars and flaws are only proof that you're so much stronger than what hurt you. I love you, Jude. Don’t ever forget that.
[TERRIFIED SCREAMING] JUDE!!!
You’ve been hiding from me, avoiding me. Just tell me the truth! And your arms, you were hiding them with... with paint!? Paint, Jude, you’re trying to act like nothing’s changed! Covering it up, painting on yourself like you used to as if everything’s just as it was. What, you reckon my head zips up the back?! You think I’m bloody thick?! You’re doing this to run from it all. I know you, Jude, and I know the abuse was...it was a nightmare. But drowning all that pain in heroin isn’t gonna do any good.
Very nice! Love the accent. Would love to hear a lot more rage in the last line, but spectacular nonetheless!!!
Thank you so much. I've had another go at the last part, with more rage. Let me know what you think :)
