Activity 1.8 - Bernice

Follow 1.7 with what might happen next, just a line or two for each section. Use italics only and only spend a few minutes on each.
Consider:
1. Are your scenes a sequence?
2. Does something connect each one?
3. Is your person male or female?
4. What response might they provoke?

(This is going to be awkward - especially as I'm using italics for the questions....)

HE quickly reappears, marches over to the letter and gathers the pieces together. HE stuffs them in his pockets, checks to make sure none are left and leaves again.

SHE reenters hesitantly, then runs to where the letter was. On finding no remains SHE falls to her knees with her head in her hands.

HE reenters and walks over to SHE. HE drops down beside SHE and helps her up from the floor. They both look around and hurry off together.

A third character follows at a distance.

Consideration bits.
My little scenes are intended to be a sequence. At first the link is provided by the letter. Both HE and SHE have direct dealings with it, and that links them together. Then they meet and leave together, clearly establishing a relationship. The mystery third character is following them, this may or may not have something to do with the letter.
The sex of my characters don't really have any bearing on the action, initially I made one HE and one SHE to distinguish them. When I give them names this will be pretty much irrelevant.
I hope the response provoked by the scenes would be intrigue - at least that was what was intended - I'd want the audience to be wondering what was in the letter as I have tried to make it the catalyst for all the movements on stage, including the shadowy third figure who follows HE and SHE off stage.
