An Actor’s Life for Me was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Description
Kassandra sought to help Aristophanes to look for his actor, Thespis, who was needed in his play which critiques Kleon.
Dialogue
Kassandra spoke to Aristophanes in Perikles' Residence.
- Aristophanes: It'll be a disaster, a disaster I tell you!
- Kassandra: Calm down. What are you talking about?
- Aristophanes: My masterpiece! it will change everything—amuse, astound, titillate, and open people's eyes to Kleon's machinations! But I need you.
- Kassandra: I'm not actor or poet, Aristophanes.
- Aristophanes: By the gods, no! it's Thespis. My leading man is missing! A play with no star is no play at all.
(If players asked "What happened?")
- Kassandra: How do you know he's missing?
- Aristophanes: He never misses a rehearsal... unless he's drunk, or with a woman... or a man.
- Kassandra: Could be anything, then?
- Aristophanes: No, he knows how important this is. He wouldn't let me down... Something must be wrong!
(If players asked "Why is Thespis special?")
- Kassandra: You could just get another actor.
- Aristophanes: Oh, no. Thespis always draws a huge crowd for his performances.
- Aristophanes: The more people who experience my blistering indictment of Kleon, the better.
(If players chose "Tell me where you think Thespis is.")
- Kassandra: So where would I find him?
- Aristophanes: Thespis usually doesn't go far from his home. You'd best start there.
(Accept – "I'll fetch Thespis.")
- Kassandra: This shouldn't take long. Prepare the show, and I'll be back as soon as I find him.
Kassandra travelled to the Agora of Athens. Ikaros helped her identify the actor's house.
- Kassandra: This must be Thespis' house.
She approached the house but only found an Athenian soldier. She overheard him as he rifled through Thespis' belongings.
- Athenian Guard: Come on, come on. It's got to be here!
Kassandra stepped inside, quickly disarmed the soldier, and held him at spearpoint.
- Kassandra: You don't look like an actor, unless you're playing an Athenian guard.
- Athenian Guard: I—I...
- Kassandra: Hush. I'm going to ask some questions, and you're going to answer.
- Athenian Guard: But Commander Rhexenor...
- Kassandra: What's your name?
- Athenian Guard: Bulis.
- Kassandra: Well Bulis, it's your choice whether you walk out of here. Do you understand?
- Athenian Guard: Yes.
(If players asked "What are you doing?")
- Kassandra: Tell me, what are you looking for?
- Athenian Guard: Some stupid play. They don't tell me anything.
- Kassandra: Play?
- Athenian Guard: I just do what I'm told, and they told me to destroy the manuscript.
(If players asked "Where's Thespis?")
- Kassandra: What have you done with Thespis?
- Athenian Guard: Some of the boys are meant to keep him drunk in the tavern down the street.
(If players chose "You must know more.")
- Kassandra: You'd better be telling me everything.
- Athenian Guard: All I know is they wanted to keep this actor busy. See for yourself—he's at the tavern.
- Kassandra: You're sure that's all?
- Athenian Guard: I just follow the Commander's orders. I don't ask questions.
Kassandra freed the guard.
- Kassandra: Do something worthwhile and join my crew. You're loyal, and you follow orders.
- Athenian Guard: You'd take me?
- Kassandra: What do you say?
- Athenian Guard: To get away from Athens... Thank you, thank you.
- Kassandra: Get out of here, and count yourself lucky.
- Athenian Guard: Thank you, thank you...
Kassandra travelled to the tavern, finding a drunk Thespis surrounded by a group of Athenian guards.
- Thespis: ...And then I saids to him, if this is your wife, why did she charge me?!
- Thespis: I'd loves to stay, but my cup's drained, and I'm to perform tomorrow.
The brute leading the soldiers bid him to stay, as per his orders.
- Andras: Another drink! Come, one more tale. The night is young...
Kassandra approached them.
- Kassandra: I think he's had enough.
- Andras: And what business is it of yours, friend?
- Thespis: Yeah, was business... Oh, look at you!
- Andras: You'd best be leaving.
- Kassandra: I'm here for his employer, Aristophanes.
- Andras: So? He's not working now.
- Thespis: Yes! I's not working... I like him though. Aristophanes, funny man... buts opinions. Told him it's dangerous.
- Andras: That it is.
- Kassandra: I need him sober and rested.
- Kassandra: I'm just here for Thespis. He's drunk, and I need to get him home.
- Andras: What are you, his mater?
- Kassandra: Let's say extended family.
Athenian soldiers gathered behind Andras.
- Andras: I don't think you understand the situation. Commander Rhexenor's orders are he's not to leave.
- Thespis: I saids I'd stay... Don't want trouble.
- Kassandra: Go take your boys somewhere else.
Kassandra punched Andras, knocking him back, but his men caught him and uprighted him. He cracked his knuckles menacingly.
- Andras: You'll regret that.
- Kassandra: Get going—from your smell, you already know where the goat pens are. I'm sure they miss you.
Andras and his guards began to walk away.
- Kassandra: (Maaa!)
Andras snapped and turned back to attack Kassandra with his guards. She slew them and returned her attention to Thespis.
- Kassandra: If you don't want to leave with your heads stuffed up your asses, you'll go now.
- Andras: We'll be seeing you, misthios. The Commander's not a man to be messed with.
- Kassandra: No need for jealousy, just because your mother was a goat. Like mother, like kid.
- Andras: You need to die!
Kassandra eliminated Andras and the soldiers.
- Kassandra: I sometimes wonder if leaving Kephallonia was a good idea.
- Kassandra: Give me Thespis, and I'll give you something in return. I'm sure we can come to an arrangement.
Kassandra took out a pouch of drachmae and threw it on the table.
- Kassandra: Here, for your troubles. I'll look after him now.
Andras picked up the pouch and weighed it satisfactorily.
- Andras: Huh, a fool and his drachmae... Very well, you won't see us again.
Kassandra took out a pouch of drachmae and threw it on the table.
- Kassandra: Take this and get out of my sight.
- Andras: Do you think we're farmers that can be bought for beans? Take your money and stick it up your ass.
- Andras: We'll be seeing you, misthios. The Commander's not a man to be messed with.
Thespis got up from his seat and promptly collapsed on the ground.
- Thespis: I's not feeling too good...
Kassandra carried Thespis on her back, travelling to his home.
- Thespis: He said you're behind a mask—you'll be perfectly safe, he saids...
- Thespis: You's sooo strong, Aikaterine.
- Thespis: Wheee, giddy ups!
- Thespis: My parents said you'll be either an actor or a drunk... Ha, fooled them. I becames both!
- Thespis: Told him, Kleon will kill us all. It's more assaults than satire!
- Thespis: The sausage seller was my idea!
- Thespis: Then I will... I will... gather my... what was it again? Oh yes... sausages!
- Thespis: Mmm... sausages...
- Thespis: Let me tell you a secret... It's a good one... I uh... I forget.
- Thespis: Listen to me... I love you. I do.
Kassandra reached Thespis' home, putting him on the ground.
- Thespis: Thank you, but you can go no further... For I know true love!
- Kassandra: I just need you ready to perform tomorrow.
- Thespis: Of course, and I just need my muse... My love! I can't, I won't perform without her.
(If players asked "Why won't you perform?")
- Kassandra: You will perform.
- Thespis: Uh-uh, not with out Aikaterine, a divine name for a divine body... I mean being.
(If players asked "Who were those men?")
- Kassandra: Those men in the tavern... Who were they?
- Thespis: Oh, the admirers. Harmless really... And I do like a man in uniform.
(Leave – "Pull yourself together.")
- Kassandra: You need to sober up. This play's important.
- Thespis: So's Aikaterine! I need my muse.
- Thespis: Please? She's just west of here at the House of Aphrodite.
- Kassandra: If it means you'll do the play, I'll find your muse.
- (If Andras was not fought and defeated at the tavern)
- Kassandra left the house to find Andras and his men surrounding her.
- Andras: Going to enjoy this. I'll mess that pretty face right up.
- Kassandra: No need for jealousy, just because your mother was a goat. Like mother, like kid.
- Andras: You need to die!
- Andras and his men attacked Kassandra, but she defeated them easily.
Regardless, Kassandra reflected on her situation and the outcome of her most recent activities.
- Kassandra: I sometimes wonder if leaving Kephallonia was a good idea.
Outcome
Kassandra helped Aristophanes to locate his actor, Thespis. She accepted Thespis' request to help look for his muse.
