Give me a little script of your characters talking behind the scenes and I'll rate them on: humour, sarcasm, drama and interestingness

I'll go first

Gerda: has anyone ever told you how weird your face looks?

Dean: this is literally my first time outside the mental ward in years Gerda.

Gerda: is that a no then, am I the one to point out your stupid face.

Dean: * mumbling* why did we have to bring the narcissist…HEY JO CAN WE PLEASE REMOVE THE NARCISSIST I DON'T THINK I CAN STAND ANOTHER MINUTE WITH HER.

Jo, in the distance: I'M KIND OF OCCUPIED AT THE MOMENT.

Dean:oh….

Dean: wait a second, JO ARE YOU DOING LAWRENCE WITHOUT ME!?

Kenny and Jo: burst out laughing

Jo: I SWEAR TO GOD SHUT UP.

Lawrence: hey, I'M OPEN TO THE IDEA!

Jo: seriously…why am I stuck with you idiots.

Taa daa, oh and to stop any confusion here are the biological sex, genders and sexualities because why not.

Kenny: female sex (gender fluid) trixic

Jo: male sex (trans woman) straight

Lawrence: male sex (cis man) aromantic

Dean: male sex (cis man) pansexual

Gerda: female sex (cis female) asexual

Caroline: Ooh, can we keep him!?
[She kneels down and captures Dennis chin between her thumb and forefinger]
Caroline: I'll feed him twice a dad and take him for lots of walks, I'll even clean up after him! Please, daddy?
Markus: H-hes not a dog! He's a person! You can't keep him!
Cliff: Well he's not leaving either way.
Cliff: so you can either have a bullet in your skull, or make my little girl happy.
[He pulls out a gun and presses it to Dennis' forehead]
Cliff: Pick.

Okay, I loved that 😂, at first I thought Dennis was a dog. The humour was spot on and it was definitely interesting 9/10 😂

Balam: Is this… a recorded interview?
Interviewer: Um… yes?
Balam: [sigh] Well then I really have nothing to say, I think their actions will speak for themselves
Cut to Nitis and Lasta arguing over a cookie in the back
Lasta: I was definitely going for it first
Nitis: Even if you did, I TOOK it first, seeing it doesn't give you any claim to it
Lasta: Well I'll just TAKE IT TOO THEN
Lasta: [Tackles Nitis to the ground, reaching for the cookie]
{They roll and fight all over the background set while Balam stares into the Camera}
Amoxtli: [smiles into the camera from in front of the other two] Hiiii, I'm the good one
{A bomb explodes on the background of the set}
Amoxtli: [Winces] More or less
Tiburo: [Running away from the explosion on all fours while screaming] THEY'VE FINALLY COME FOR ME, THE GODS HAVE COME FOR ME AND THEY'RE ANGRY
{* Tiburo runs into the cameraman with an oomph and the camera cracks}
{All you can see in the background now is a fire and all you hear is angry and terrified screaming from all directions}
*Balam: [groan]
