There is a loud silence. The air is vibrating with uneasiness, the calm before the storm. Mira stands alone against a desert backdrop, then a salty sea spray splashes her face, then the rising sun in-
Mira: CUT!
Everyone: *groans*
Mira: I've told you time and time again! You've got to get the sunsrise EXACTLY RIGHT!
Harry: *complaining* Mira we've been at this for a really really long time.
Mira: I'm sorry (not), but it has to be exactly right. We need the promo to show hope and possibility.
James: *background* I'm almost done editing the poster!
Mira: Awesome, awesome! What font is the title?
James: Zapfino.
Mira: James, you are my MAN.
James: *blush*
Hermione: *organised, in her element* Ok so that's the poster check, the trailers almost done-you said this would be the LAST take-and that just leaves-oh
Mira: What?
Hermione: Well, the actual filming.
Mira: What filming?
Hermione: Isn't Escape from Planet Trump going to have content?
Mira: I wasn't planning on it.
Hermione: Oh. Well then we're nearly done! Just the Hillary or Taylor Swift endorsement left.
Mira: Well one of those is not going to happen and it isn't Hillary because-
Hillary Clinton: Hello there!
Mira: Honestly I feel like I'm hosting the Daily Show.
*Trevor Noah appears*
Trevor: You said somewhere in the Pacific Ocean? This doesn't look like it.
Mira: *sigh* This wasn't supposed to happen.
*Trump appears*
Mira: Oh for the holy mother of-
Hermione: This is not good. I don't like this guy at all-
Lily: oh my gosh is that a cat?
*Trump strokes cat, smiling*
Mira: Is there something about this that doesn't add u-
*desperate woman appears*
Desperate Woman: HE GRABBED MY PUSSY!
Mira: I'm done. I am so done. *all the muggles vanish* So the movie was a bad idea. Let's go back to the dare idea.
Hermione: Hmm..nah
Everyone: Nah
Mira: Uh-yeah. But today we have something different. A guest!
Lily: A guest?
Scorpius: A guest?
Mira: Yep! But first we have to rescue Rose and Scorpius from that closet...
1 hour later
Scorpius: Look Dad, I'm gay-
Draco: I'm so done
Everyone except Albus: *try not to laugh*
Albus: *blushes*
Mira: The love is so real here. Now, for the guest. Her name is *reads from placard* Sophia, is it?
Sophi*a*: It's Sophie :)
Mira: Ah, my mistake. Now Sophia is here to do a little...matchmaking.
Sophie: Indeed *cough* Sophie *cough*
Mira: *ignores coughing completely* So go ahead! The girls told me you were a daughter of Aphrodite ;)
James: Wasn't that the goddess of love? You are pretty beautiful, if I do say so myself.
Sophie: Oh James, you flatter me *flicks fingers*
*Sophie launches into song*
Sophie: All is fair in love and war, When I'm done with you, you'll ask for more. *James turns to Hermione, his eyes as hearts*
The pretty lady will become, a tramp compared to a lovely nun. *Hermione glances at Harry slyly*
I can make you wish to god, that you had not been born, the sod. *Scorpius turns to his father, Draco flinches away*
All is fair in love and war, when i'm done you'll be quite sor-Mira: OK THAT'S ENOUGH OF THAT LET'S KEEP THIS PG.
Sophie: Sorry, I got carried away.
Mira: *Surveys Hermione trying to get away from James by running towards Harry, who bangs into Scorpius who is following his father around like a puppy as Albus and Lily try not to throw up* Good work there, Sophia.
Sophia: *slight eye twitch* Thanks, uh, it's Sophie, by the way.
Mira: *airily* of course, of course. Now could you-uh- fix them?
Sophie: I'll try. *flicks hair*
*Everything turns back to normal*
James: *hands on Hermione's ankles as she kicks him repeatedly* OW
Harry: *edges away from Hermione, a regretful smile on his face as he backs away from Ron too*
Draco: GEROFF ME
Scorpius: *realises he is trying to eat his father's face* OH MY GOD.
Mira: You're sadistic too.
Sophie: Indeed ;)
Mira: The fun we could have.
Sophie: Unimaginable.
Mira: I'm imagining it, alright. ATTENTION!
*characters salute involuntarily*
Mira: We have one smallish dare before you leave. This one's for the Weasley girls.
*Ginny, Hermione and Rose shiver*
Hugo: Lol
Mira: Don't worry Ginny, I'm still getting over the hippogriff dance. You're safe. For now. Rose and Hermione, you're going to do some singing!
Rose: Well, it could be worse-
Mira: WHILE BURNING BOOKS!
10 minutes later...
Rose: *audibly sobbing* L-let it b-burn, let it b-burn *books go up in flames*
Hermione: *tears streaming down her face as she watches Hogwarts: A history, go up in flames*
Mira: Well that's it for now guys! Have a Trumptastic weekend ;)
