Calling More, GOOD Protestors!

Good afternoon, lovelies!

A few days ago, I asked if anyone would be willing to do a bit of voice acting as Gabriel's evil minions (re: the homophobic protestors). And you guys did absolutely incredible work. Thank you!

Now, we need some counter-protestors! Basically, people who show up in support of Drek, called by Bob and friends. It's a few major characters we've already met, a brand new character that's been mentioned but never properly introduced, and background characters--specifically the off-duty volunteer fire department (summoned by Vet Grandpa) and the Stoughton Street Coven. That's where you come in!

These don't have to be as defined, loud, or negative as Gabriel's. Honestly, it doesn't even get particularly heated. I'm basing this confrontation after a real-life event that happened to me in high school. When I was a junior, the drama club put on a production of The Laramie Project (I was one of three narrators, and the murderer's aunt who begged for a lighter sentence). For those who don't know, that production is a quasi-documentary drama about the murder of Matthew Shepherd, a gay man in the 1990s. Westboro Baptist Church caught wind and threatened to protest my high school, so my school organized a counter-protest that showed up an hour before WBC was supposed to come. Dozens of people showed up: students, parents, neighbors, it felt like half the town.

WBC never did show up to protest, although there was a rumor that a van with Kentucky plates drove up to the school, drove around the protest (scoping it out), and then bailed.

The same thing is basically going to happen here with CaFae Latte, although there will be a little confrontation when Gabriel's group pulls up. So, here's what we need:

• General background chatter. This can be anything: a story, some gossip you want to share, or just "peas and carrots." Fun fact: whenever you hear "general crowd noises," that's often the background actors saying "peas and carrots," over and over again, because it doesn't take much editing to make it sound like authentic murmuring.

• A few insults for Gabriel & Co for when they do roll up. Some character notes: Michael does give Drek a truth potion off-screen, just as a formality, so the Coven has proof that Conner's accusations are totally false. Remember: TikTok has very strict censorship rules, so refrain from swears and truly horrific insults/curses. Otherwise, you've got free creative reign.

Once you have your audio file, you can drop it in the Discord, or this Google Drive folder, and then Video Editor Nic can use it!

Note: there is no guarantee that we will use your sound. But the more options we have, the more freedom Nic has in his sound design, which means the better the video will be.

Thank you all for your help!
