I have too much time on my hands so I have every scorbus and every scorose related thing in the cursed child. You tell me which is canon.
Scorbus:
1. ALBUS: Albus. Al. I'm — my name is Albus . . .
SCORPIUS: Hi Scorpius. I mean, I'm Scorpius. You're Albus. I'm Scorpius.
2. It's probably rubbish. I mean . . . look, you've got a nose.
The tension is slightly broken. SCORPIUS laughs, pathetically grateful
3. ALBUS: No. (Off ROSE's look.) I'm okay. You go on . . .
ROSE: Albus. I won't wait.
ALBUS: And I wouldn't expect you to. But I'm staying here.
ROSE looks at him a second and then leaves the compartment.
ROSE: Fine!
SCORPIUS and ALBUS are left — looking at each other — unsure.
SCORPIUS: Thank you.
4. ALBUS: But I don't need a Ron and Hermione. I've — I've got a friend, Scorpius, and I know you don'tlike him but he's all I need.
5. SCORPIUS: I couldn't work out what to say.
ALBUS: And now I don't know what to say . . .
SCORPIUS: Say nothing.
ALBUS: Is there anything . . . ?
SCORPIUS: Come to the funeral.
ALBUS: Of course.
SCORPIUS: And be my good friend.
6. ALBUS hugs his friend. With fierceness. They hold for a beat.
SCORPIUS is surprised by this.Okay. Hello. Um. Have we hugged before? Do we hug?
The two boys awkwardly dislocate.
7. SCORPIUS/HARRY: My point is, there's a reason we're friends, Albus — a reason we found each other, youknow? And whatever this — adventure — is about . . .
8. ALBUS emerges from the books. As himself again.
SCORPIUS/HARRY: Albus . . .He tries to grab him.
ALBUS: No. Just — THIIIIIIINK.
ALBUS is violently pulled back into the bookcase.
SCORPIUS/HARRY: But I can't...
(On to Act two!)
9.SCORPIUS appears at the back of the stage. He looks at his friend talking to a girl — and part ofhim likes it and part of him doesn't.
10. SCORPIUS (over-enthusiastic, trying to join in): And I've found our way through to the school. Listen, arewe sure this will work . . .
11.SCORPIUS isn't enjoying the DELPHI-ALBUS double act.
12. SCORPIUS looks at her and then at ALBUS.
SCORPIUS: You shouldn't come.
DELPHI: What?
SCORPIUS: You're right. We don't need you for the spell. And if you can't wear student robes — you're toobig a risk. Sorry, Delphi, you shouldn't come.
13. SCORPIUS: She didn't kiss me — did you notice? (He looks at his friend.) Are you okay, Albus? You looka little pale. And red. Pale and red at the same time.
14. SCORPIUS: You're better. You're my best friend, Albus. And this is mayhem to the nth degree. Which isgreat, thumbs-up great, it's just — I have got to say — I don't mind admitting — I am a tiny bit —just a tiny bit scared.
