Theater is

Theater is a kid, trying to figure out what clubs to do in second grade, knowing that they've seen musicals and plays before and loved watching them and seeing drama club on the list

Theater is

Audition

Casting

Rehearsal

Theater is the kid, old enough to sing in the musical, memorizing their lines and others, loving every second of being onstage

Theater is

Memorization

Blocking

Choreography

Theater is the kid, now in middle school, deciding to do the theater class since there is one at their school now, meeting the theater teacher, meeting new friends, being good at it, finally auditioning for their first actual musical

Theater is

Stage Fright

Friendship

Confidence

Theater is that kid getting the main role, doing theater again the next year, knowing so much about all of it and teaching the newer kids, painting set pieces with their friends, the friends that they now have because of theater

Theater is

Props

Costumes

Lights & Sound

Theater is the kid going into high school, leaving their middle school theater teacher and younger friends, so anxious about it but quickly finding their place in their theater class, volunteering at a drama fundraiser and meeting older theater kids there, learning their names and being able to make an impression

Theater is their first high school audition, for the fall play, multiple smaller plays directed by seniors, and having fun, getting cast in one of the biggest ones with the best directors they could've asked for, still anxious about being a good cast member but getting more confident again

Theater is rehearsals 3 times a week after school, the kid finding their footing in the cast, making friends with the older kids, being able to make suggestions or point things out that need fixing in the show

Theater is the kid being able to impress people, being able to memorize their lines, being able to be confident, being able to fix things, being able to say hi to their cast in the halls, at first just smiling at their director when they passed each other during passing period but then saying hi, even talking for a minute or two, the cast walking to the grocery store together at the start of a rehearsal for almost no reason, the kid being able to talk to their castmates, their friends, and not feel out of place, being excited for the bigger productions later in the year, not being worried about stage makeup because they know the older kids will be there, knowing that the older cast members and their directors will help them if they need it, knowing that they'll still be able to spend more time with them, knowing that they'll be so sad when the seniors graduate, but knowing that they still have almost all of the school year with them

Theater is

Belonging

Safety

Laughter

Freedom

Joking

Focusing

Acting

Acting, but with people that you trust. With people that even though you met them 2 months ago, that you know. You know their mannerisms, how they laugh, their sense of humor. You know that they're kind, you know that they care, you know that all of you love this. You all love this so, so much. You know that if you make a mistake on stage, that they'll improv and cover for you, and that you'd do the same for them. You know that no matter how anxious you are before the show, that they'll be someone with the same nerves and you can comfort each other.

And then the last show will end, and the audience will applaud. You will bow, with these people, these people that you may not have known a few months prior, but that so much trust has formed between. You've played improv games with these people, walked to the store with them, rehearsed over and over and over again with them, learned so much from them, taught and helped and been taught and helped, and it's over.

Until the next show, and the next, and the next year with more new freshmen, some of the kid's younger middle school friends now there too, until the year that the kid will direct their own show, as a senior, and try to be just as good a director as the ones they had their freshmen year.

And they will belong.

They will all belong.

-🍡 anon.

waaa ik this is late but dw abt it!! I hope you're feeling better now <3 and let's see if my streak of being clueless writing angst yet it still turns out decent continues......I hope you like this!! <3

♡ "YOU'RE WORTHLESS" - Akito Shinonome, Toya Aoyagi, Tsukasa Tenma and Rui Kamishiro x Reader

Akito:

Akito knows that he can get unreasonably aggressive sometimes. He doesn't really know how to stop himself though

And here the two of you were, in the middle of a fight. Neither of you knew who started it, but things had escalated faster than you could keep up with. (One of the things that truly sets him off is insulting his passions for music.)

"You know what?" He scoffs, glaring at you before throwing his arms in the air, "You're so fucking worthless, you can't even do anything right-"

He freezes the moment the words leave him, eyes going wide. He- Where did that even come from?

You were just as shocked, but before either of you could say anything, he turned and left, shoulders shaking

He didn't- He truly didn't mean to say that to you. It just left him, and now all he could do was run? You were yet another person he ended up pushing away, and he couldn't even say he was surprised.

Toya:

Toya has a really bad experience with fights, but he will always try his best to calm things down. It's rare for him to ever be the aggressive one in an argument, but...

The two of you were in an argument, a big one that neither of you knew who started what. All he knew was that you had really set him off. (The only thing I can think of that would set him off is comparing him to his dad.)

"How could you-" He takes a breath, staring at you with tears in his eyes. "You...You're so worthless, I don't even know why I put up with this from you-"

He cut himself off the moment the words left him, absolutely breathless. That was...He didn't know where that came from, but...

You felt just as breathless as you stared at him, the two of you absolutely motionless. Did he really just?...

He doesn't even move to leave the room, just standing there in silence, both of you far too scared to make the first move.

Tsukasa:

Tsukasa absolutely hates fighting with the people he loves. It's mostly unnecessary, and a true waste of the limited time he has with them

Of course, that sentiment couldn't stop the fight the two of you were in, both of you growing louder and louder. (I think the most likely way to set him off is if you insult his passion in theater/say him being a star is a stupid pursuit.)

"You-" He clenches his fists, placing them across his chest, "You're so fucking worthless, I can't believe that I even want to spend time with someone like you!-"

He stops screaming after that, instead taking uncontrolled gasps of air in and out. He- Why did he?- He didn't want to-

You were just as silent, staring at him with wide eyes. He was unmoving, eyes wide and wild as they darted everywhere

Finally, he crumbles, falling to his knees in front of you and begging, sobbing for your forgiveness.

Rui:

Rui has always found fights to be absolutely useless at the end of the day. He didn't want to participate in an angry screaming match that would go nowhere

Of course, this thought didn't stop the fight the two of you were currently in. You were both struggling to keep up with the other. (He's most likely set off by any statements saying that people are right about how weird/offputting he is.)

"Ha, do you honestly think?-" He scoffs, clenching his fists, "You're fucking worthless, I could always leave you and find someone who treats me better!-"

He freezes, lowering his arms to his sides. He- He honestly didn't mean any of that. It all came out of him in a rush-

You stare at him in silence, dumbfounded. Did he honestly think you didn't treat him well?

He doesn't say a thing, simply turning to leave. He couldn't bare to face you, not when he threatened you with the single thing that he's the most terrified of.
