[OOM: In dreams.]
Dec. 3rd, 2006 11:43 pmINT. TENT THAT DREAMS OF BEING A STUDIO APARTMENT
The scene opens on the interior of Raph's tent as it exists at present, the scene is a desolate one. The camera pans through the space, starting with the front door flap and moving counter-clockwise through the space. As it travels through the living room/sitting area there is a brief pause to take in the one shred of magic still left on the roof: the Raph-shaped clean spot that claims the left-most cushion of the couch. The tour continues over the breakfast bar and through the galley kitchen, before coming to a halt on the remnants of what was once a bed.
Suddenly the alarm clock on the bedside table sputters to life, and the moonlight which bathes the room is augmented by the blue blinking display. The camera pivots to take in the face of the clock which blinks the time: 1:22 am. When it pans back to the bed proper, the bed is not only whole but currently occupied as well. A shirtless Human RAPHAEL lays on his back, his eyes closed.

He turns to look at his alarm clock, sighing.
Especially at night, I worry over situations. I know I'll be alright, perhaps it's just imagination
He's clearly not going to be getting anymore sleep this evening, so throws off the covers, sits up, and hangs his legs off the edge of the bed.
Day after day it reappears. Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear. Ghosts appear and fade away.
Disgusted, he stands and exits the room, disappearing down the hall and into bathroom, closing the door behind him.

He swings open the flat
EXT. NEW YORK CITY ROOFTOP, NIGHT TIME
The scene opens with RAPHAEL emerging from the tent, with the camera quickly panning to show the brilliant New York City skyline. When it returns to RAPHAEL, the tent is gone, having been replaced by a roof mounted water tower. RAPHAEL looks out upon his beloved city, and basks in its glory.
At least there's pretty lights, though there's little variation. It nullifies the night from overkill.
RAPHAEL dons his fedora and trench coat.
Day after day it reappears. Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear. Ghosts appear and fade away. Come back another day
Apparently displeased by his current vantage point, RAPHAEL begins the process of scaling the water tower.

I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications,
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications,
Especially at night,
I worry over situations.
I know I'll be alright
It's just overkill.
Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away.
Ghosts appear and fade away.
Ghosts appear and fade away.
RAPHAEL falls to his knees, defeated.
End scene.
