Sorry Leah!
What do you do with them?
I wrote my play with all of them, and in it I cause general suffering in all of their lives. Soon I will be casting them, forcing actors to play them, and sharing them with anyone who wants to come see them.
Do you feel close to them?
Since I don't really write that much, all of these guys are totally my babies. I think in real life, I'd be friends with almost all of them (odd, seeing as none of them are really pleasant people XD) I have an especially close connection with Andrew, because we're both Sound Technicians.
Do you believe they're real?
They're not real, but most of them are either based on people I know or composits. Walk into a school drama program and you'll find them all, just not exactly the same.
Are any of them dating each other?
The story is pretty much a romantic comedy, so yes! All of them are dating each other! Olivia and Logan dated during the story, and by the end of the story the couples are Andrew and Sophie, Ethan and Zoe, and Caleb and Olivia.
Have any of them ever been killed?
Not really, though Olivia thinks Caleb is dead for quite a while.
Have you drawn them?
No, though I have been precasting (Evil Katherine!)
~~
About number one:
Ethan! He's a sarcastic actor who can never remember his lines.
What do they do for a living?
I'd say he probably has a part time job at Chick-fil-a, though that is not ever even hinted at. It works for him. He stands there and mocks customers.
What do they dress like?
Average. If there is one single composite of all guys in high school, that is how he dresses. Jeans, T-shirt, a polo if he feels like it. Kind of like a fucking prep.
Who is their best friend?
Probably Caleb. They're close anyway.
How would they respond to abuse?
He actively runs away from being abused by the stage manager the whole show! So yeah, running away
Do they have any nicknames?
Eth-Eth! No, I'm kidding- he doesn't have a nickname.
Are they seeing anyone? Married?
He asks out Zoe at the end of the play, and I like to think that they kept on dating at least until graduation.
What species are they?
Actor. Species of its own.
Do they eat meat?
He is no vegetarian!
What kind of accent do they have?
Whatever the accent is of the actor playing him. I'd say just the normal, everyday American accent normally though.

One time, at band camp...

About number three:
Caleb, the meek stage crew (he is the whole stage crew) who's in love with Olivia

What is their favorite food?
Pizza Bagels
Do they have a nice singing voice?
He doesn't know, he's never sung in front of anyone else. He'd be too nervous.
