Holding My Breath
| Props: | an uninflated latex balloon |

[Petunia:] I bet I can hold my breath longer than you.
[Ashes:] What? No way! I'm a lot bigger and stronger than you, and I bet I can hold my breath longer than you!
[Petunia:] That sounds like a bet to me - you go first!
[Ashes:] OK!
Ashes takes in a big breath and holds it - cheeks puffed out, eyes wide open, etc.
Petunia mocks Ashes, trying to get him to let his breath out
[Petunia:] You're turning blue! I bet you can't go much longer....Ashes releases his breath with a lot of fanfare
[Ashes:] See! I did pretty good, huh! I bet you can't beat that!Petunia pulls out the ballon and inflates it (it doesn't need to be more than one breath), and then holds it up.
[Ashes:] What are you doing? [Petunia:] I'm holding my breath.
