Let's Play A Game (Indie Project)
theweirdphilosopher for Molly (undecided)
Molly is an energetic young girl. She enjoys teasing her tutor, Matt, and often bugs him to play chess with her. She gets frustrated easily because she doesn't see things the way he does when it comes to strategy. Her dream is to become an idol and she often sings her own made up songs. Her dream is to be an actress/singer.
Matt often babysits her for her busy father who is a bit close as old friends to Matt's mother.
She has a sweet voice. She's energetic. I leave this open though to interpretation. I will note that her voice has darker moments as she is fighting her inner "demons" which try to put her down. Her friendship with Matt, Clarice, Chanelle, and Anthea, help her cope with her negativity.
She also has a secret: She can see ghosts. She knows Clarice is one but she makes no mention to point this out showing that this child-like personality perhaps is more mature than she initially appears.
(this first line shows her maturity and I think it's important to see how this is depicted)
*inner monologue*
Life is fleeting. It doesn't matter who you are. It doesn't matter what you are. Death takes. I didn't want to lose Papa. I don't think anyone did. The adults tell me he just had an "accident". I knew the truth though. He's not coming back...is he? Maybe...a part of Papa didn't want to come back to me and Mama.
(she looks to Matt walking away with Clarice, talking animatedly if not looking lively and irritated at how she giggles and skips ahead of him. Molly lowers her arm from waving them off. Her expression is hard to read)
I knew it from the moment I met her. She's different. She wants to stay. I can feel it. Her energy, her aura. It resonates with his. They are connected... I want to say something. But how can I? (she hugs herself as they round the corner. her smile slides off her face. She sinks to her knees, lookingat the ground, her eyes water. The tears spill over.) How can I be so cruel? If I break this magic spell, then the clock will strike twelve, won't it? I don't want Mr. Matt to lose his Cinderella.
I don't want to do this anymore! Let's play a game! Play with me! (Matt tells her to focus on the tutoring) You're no fun! I hope you go bald!
My name is Molly and I'm almost TEN.
Please redo this with better mic quality. Your voice echoes and it makes it difficult for me to make any sort of critique :)
