This is the category for all the quasi-storyboards and other art associated with a screenplay written by Iago Faustus, called Auto-Icon. The arrangement of posts should show all the storyboards in sequence of publication, beginning with the most recent. The arrows at the bottom of the page are counter-intuitive as a consequence of theme organization. “Older Posts” advances the reader further in time, “Newer Posts” backwards.

Toozie’s Cinematic Fantasy 01

Toozie sit s with friends at a college film festival, watching cheesy old 1960s monster movies in which a pretty scuba girl is attacked by a ferocious octopus.

A a little holiday/New Year’s treat and a change of pace from foreign language lessons delivered by vore and tentacles, I am posting a series by artist Dark Vasili, who was last seen on this site doing the sequence Toozie’s Sacrifice.

Part of a sequence in which artist Dark Vasili imagines what Toozie was imagining when she had to leave the monster-movie Cheesefest (a sequence that in main continuity begins at Storyboard 033.

INT. A HALLWAY OUTSIDE THE EXAMINATION ROOM – DAY


Toozie is in the middle of a conversation with Miranda, Sherman, and Chad. Professor Lee ambles up, and Toozie’s friends stand aside.


PROFESSOR LEE


Ms. Chen, I just wanted to compliment you on what is one of the finest and most articulate undergraduate thesis defenses it has ever been my pleasure to witness.


TOOZIE


Thank you, Professor Lee.


PROFESSOR LEE


Indeed I don’t think I’ve seen a doctoral candidate who has done better.


Toozie smiles, slightly embarrassed.


PROFESSOR LEE


Speaking of which, it’s a pity you aren’t considering graduate study in your near future.


TOOZIE


I might like that, but have you seen what’s at the end of a Ph.D. program? The academic job market is a disaster.


PROFESSOR LEE


True, unfortunately.


TOOZIE


Can you offer me any reason to think it will be better in, say, six years?


PROFESSOR LEE


Unfortunately, I can’t.


There is a moment of awkward silence.


PROFESSOR LEE


In any event, I can’t help but think that a young scholar with your outstanding qualifications in the humanities will find remunerative and fulfilling employment.

INT. SLEEPLESS JOE’S COFFEE SHOP – DAY


Toozie stands in a barista’s uniform behind the counter at Sleepless Joe’s. She is confronted by KAREN, a middle-aged, helmet-haired customer.


Joe, carrying a messenger bag marked with the logo of Oikos Galenou, stands in line behind Karen.


TOOZIE


(smiling somewhat fakely)


Welcome to Sleepless Joe’s. What can I get for you ma’am?


KAREN


I want a half-caf skim latte.


TOOZIE


Can I get your name, please?


KAREN


Karen.


Toozie writes “Karen” and a notation for the coffee order on the cup, then hands it to another barista who is making the drinks.

TOOZIE


Next guest, please.


Joe steps up to the counter.



Welcome to Sleepless Joe’s. What can I get for you, sir?


JOE


Just a large black coffee, please.


TOOZIE


Sure, and your name?


JOE


Joe.


(a bit greasily)


Say, I haven’t seen you here before. What’s your name?


Toozie talks as she is writing something on a cup.


TOOZIE


Toozie. Actually Lucy but people have always called me Toozie.


(pointing out Joe’s bag)


Say, you work at Oikos Galenou?


JOE


Uh, yeah, actually. At the warehouse laboratory down the street.


TOOZIE


(smiles)


Cool.

INT. SLEEPLESS JOE’S COFFEE SHOP – DAY


SECOND BARISTA


Karen!


Karen takes her cup, then tastes it.


KAREN


Excuse me? Excuse me. I specifically ordered a soy latte. This is skim.


TOOZIE


Ma’am I’m quite sure that you did order a skim latte. I wrote it down at the time.


KAREN


I most certainly did not order a skim latte.


TOOZIE


I’m sorry if there’s any confusion, ma’am. I’ll be happy to take that and have a soy latte made for you. No additional charge.



It should be free.


TOOZIE


Excuse me?


KAREN


I’m busy and you’re wasting my time with getting my order wrong. It should be free.


TOOZIE


I’m sorry, ma’am but company policy doesn’t allow me to…


KAREN


May I speak to your manager, please?


Toozie looks like she’s trying hard to express exasperation.


TOOZIE


Certainly, ma’am.


(speaking into a counter microphone)


Charlie, could you come to the front please?


Charlie, a pleasant-looking middle-aged man in a tie comes up to the counter from deeper in the bowels of Sleepless Joe’s.


KAREN


Are you the manager?


CHARLIE


Yes, I’m the manager. What’s going on here?


KAREN


Your…employee here has served me a skim latte when I specifically asked for a soy latte.


CHARLIE


(picking up the cup)


Hmm. It appears to say skim here on the cup.


KAREN


I don’t care if the brain-dead zoomers you employ can’t be bothered to listen!


CHARLIE


Now really, ma’am…


KAREN


You’d discipline this girl if you know what was good for your business.

JOE


(shouldering into the conversation)


Ah, excuse me.


CHARLIE


(glancing)


Oh, hey Joe!


JOE


Hey, Charlie. I don’t like to butt in here but I was standing right behind this — what id you say your name was, Karen? — and I also quite clearly heard her order a skim latte.


KAREN


(getting a bit red-faced)


How dare…


JOE


(extending his hand in mock friendliness)


Hi. I’m Joe Tucker, Ph.D. I work at the pharmaceutical research company down the way.


(shows his messenger bag)


You know, the people who cured dementia? That’s us. Anyway, I also maintain that I heard what I heard. Or am I just a brain-dead zoomer too?
