Derpy: Excuse me, Pinkamina?
Pinkie: (sigh) What do you want, Meryl?
Derpy: Well, in this scene, where I drop the piano, I'm meant to improvise a reaction after it hits Twilight. I'd like some advice. I was thinking Derpy would probably be really ashamed, maybe she'd fly away crying? Or is that too much? Maybe she should just do the old innocent-smile routine? Or is that overestimating her? She's supposed to be slow, after all. Perhaps she would just float there, oblivious to what she'd done? I was thinking on this, and then I realized-
Pinkie: Meryl.
Derpy:...that I'm trying to tell my character what to do instead of letting my character tell ME what she would do. So I was meditating to try and see things from Derpy's perspective, you know, really get inside her head...
Pinkie: Meryl.
Derpy:...and I realized I don't really know my character at all! All this time I thought I was EMBODYING her, but I've just been going through the motions! This is my biggest scene of the entire season and I have no idea how to-
Pinkie: MERYL!
Derpy: Yes?
Pinkie: Did you have a question?
Derpy: Oh! Well, since you're such an accomplished comedian and all, I was wondering how YOU would play this scene.
Pinkie: (rubs her temples) I wouldn't.
Derpy: You wouldn't? |
