Roleplay Scenarios

• Angst Scenario for The Butler •

( This is an angst scenario for The Butler chapter in my individual roleplay book. I decided to add it here instead of adding it to the chapter because I didn't feel like changing things in the chapter and felt it was easier just to put it here ^^ )

•

You were a coworker of the famous actor, Damien Blackwell. Well, more specifically his co-star. You weren't really friends with the man, as to you he seemed like a bit of a prick off set. You tried not to judge him too quickly, though, seeing as the two of you haven't really spoken to each other much alone enough for you to truly get to know him.

After a successful movie of his had taken off, he invited everyone from the cast and the crew to come to his mansion for a celebratory party. You thought it could be fun, so you decided to go.

As you arrived, you realized he didn't just invite the cast and crew of the movie, but a whole bunch of other people as well to celebrate in "his" success. You felt he was being rather.. pretentious, but you tried to ignore it for the sake of your other co-stars who wanted you all to have some fun.

During the party, you noticed a stoic looking man dressed quite formally, holding a tray of drinks as he walked through the crowd of people, handing off drinks to the guests. You recognized him as Damien's butler, Benjamin. You've only met him a couple of times, the few times you've come over to the mansion to speak with Damien about a movie or the times whenever Benjamin came to pick up the famous actor from the set. He was rather kind, as far as you could tell, and you wondered how someone like him could stand working for someone like Damien.

After a while of partying, you decided it was around time for you to leave. You went looking through the mansion for Damien, to say farewell and your thanks for the party. The man had disappeared a while into the party, as well as his butler. You didn't think much of it, nothing to be concerned about.

As you walked down an empty hallway, just about to give up and just leave, you heard faint yelling coming from a room down the hall. Growing concerned and curious, you slowly made your way towards the door of the room. More loud, drunken yelling could be heard, as well as the sound of glass shattering and objects being thrown. You picked up the pace, reaching the door and pulling it open to see what was happening.

You spotted Benjamin crouched down on the floor, head hung low as his arms shielded his head, blocking your view of his face. It was hard to tell by his position if he was injured or not, but he most likely was. Glass was shattered around the butler, even spotting a bit of blood on the floor near him. Nearby was an upset Damien, pacing about in front of him, though more so stumbling, as he drunkenly yelled angrily at the man on the floor. There was a broken beer bottle in his hand, his arm raised a little as he looked like he was about to either throw it at or hit Ben with the broken bottle.

What do you do?
