Hee! That was awesome. I laughed through the whole thing!!
"Dan," Dan corrected. "It's not an Aprils Fool Day thing, Dana. It's an argument between him," Dan pointed at Casey-in-Danny's-body, "And me."
Natalie stared at him. "So now there's two Dan's?"
Casey knew his cue. "No. I'm not Dan anymore. I'm going to be Casey."
"Okay," Dana said slowly, looking from one to the other. "But we can still use yesterday's names on the show's graphics, right?"
Aaaand I'm laughing out loud, and everyone thinks I'm crazy. Woo! It's so worth it. Thank you!!
I read this just after spotting your post about the difficulty of comedy, and I totally agree. This, for example, is hilarious, and it seems to me that you've made it look very easy. When the reader is so wrapped up in laughing, they don't pause to think about a perfectly constructed line or image. IMHO.
But aside from your superlative ability to get into Dan and Casey's heads, I'm sure it's not easy. I know I can't do it! So thank you again, and here's to the funny! *raises provolone in a toast. that was a great touch, by the way! :)*
