Convention Panel Meme!

THE SAVE THE EARTH COMIC-CON PANEL




Save the Earth, the unexpected hit television show known for managing to juggle tons and tons of characters each with their own plotlines and bizarre "preincarnation" stories has come to Comic-Con! The cast has assembled for a Q&A panel as well as screenings of never-before-seen blooper and possibly some teaser footage that may give some insight into who and what the characters are becoming.



How To Play!
1. This meme assumes that all character canons don't exist in this reality. They've all been created for the show
2. Post with your character. You are now writing the character's "actor" in this strange meta-universe. Include their real name and a little bit about where they came from. Are they a fan favorite? A newcomer to television lucky enough to get their start on such a successful show?
3. Post anonymously (or not) to ask fan questions of other characters! Everything from the ordinary to shipping stuff to creepy and weird. Talk about the show, hint at characters' preincarnations and tease audiences about the crazy stuff future Echoes will bring. Talk about what actors you like to work with and who you can't stand to be around. Tell stories of pranks and shenanigans on set!
4. Or just do whatever you want to do. I don't know. I'm not your boss.

FINALLY GETTING TO THIS

[There's a shot of a streetlamp, and then a modest looking apartment building. Loud music thumps as the camera zooms in on one of the windows. Next there's a picture of a tall blonde girl, bent over a computer with a pizza crust jammed in her mouth, wearing nothing but a t-shirt and boxers. She straightens and reaches up above her computer to grab a paper taped to the wall.

The image changes to the same girl, fully dressed, walking down the sidewalk with earbuds in. It's positively pastoral. She goes into a coffee shop, and the camera begins panning over to a sewer drain on the street outside the shop. A voiceover begins:]
When you read as much bullshit as I do, skepticism becomes a way of life.

"Interesting, if true," right?

[The camera continues panning, and there might be a shadow moving beneath that grate, but it's impossible to tell.

There's the chime of Avery exiting the coffee shop, though she's only visible from the thighs down. She walks toward the grate as the camera continues to zoom in, until it's just her ratty converse standing at the edge of the grate.]


So when something extraordinary happened, you can't really blame me...

[A tiny, hairy, hand-like paw curls digits over one of the bars of the manhole.] ... for having a hard time believing it at first.

[The scene abruptly switches to Avery scoffing, muttering, "Bullshit," at her phone; another shot, "I can't believe you're taking this shit seriously," to an unseen person; another, her insisting, "It's not real!"]

Really... who could have known? And by the time I found out... [The hand snaps out of the sewer drain and digs claws into Avery's foot. A coffee cup crashes to the ground, and as the coffee explodes it switches to a shot of her running full tilt down a dark street, fervently whispering fuck. Avery turns around a corner, but the shot changes to the other side of the street and... the street is empty.

An image of cogs appears on the screen, ticking slowly, like ones in a watch.]
... well. By then there wasn't much time left.
