[032] raise the curtains, dim the lights; this is it boys, the night of nights

So, now that the place has gone the Shinning on us, I think a last-ditch shindig is in order. Any takers?

Just think of it this way. If we don't, those of us NOT allowed a few rounds without "permission" when the cameras are rolling will have a long, dry, road of drama ahead of us, and who the fuck wants that to look forward to without a last hurrah to send us off?

...Justin, you're in, I'm assuming. I'm counting you as in, you're already on the list. Make it work. Cas-man, you too. [...No, this nickname has STILL not caught on. And never will. He'd apologize, Dimitri, except he's not sorry.]



[A/N: for the duration of the breach, Richie is Rob Tramontano, a bit part actor with a horrible tendency of getting roles where he gets killed off about 20 minutes after he shows up. ...and all of those were scored through a buddy who makes movies. After scoring this role he's started thinking he's hotter shit than he actually is; he's convinced this is his Big Break (never mind the fact that his character is pretty much universally despised other than by a small die-hard group who generally gets funny looks for it) and consequently tends to act a lot cockier about things than he probably should. ...Oh, and he's also got a reputation for being more than a little...eccentric, shall we say.]

Hey, I've got an idea. Write your own arc. Knock the script out and send it to 'em yourself. They can't say no if you're taking that kinda initiative, I mean, come on. They'd be idiots if they did, and I can guarantee you it's above and beyond anything they'd find trolling the fan boards. ...And don't try to tell me that's not where they're drawing their ideas, because just LOOK at some of the scripts they've come up with.

Fuckin' A. Best news I've heard in weeks. He's a blast to work with, it's a fucking travesty it didn't work out last time.

That's a good idea. At least they're letting me do what I damn well please with him for his post graduation arc. It's just getting there. And in the meantime I pushed through the kitten plot. But that has to happen after the exorcism because Drac won't scare animals after that.

I wonder what to do in the interim...

He sounded pretty frustrated with the situation too. But if they can get the contract negotiations done he should be steady afterward. I should know--we now share an agent.

Whatever you want. Crazy plots, gooey plots, take advantage of whatever gimmick they throw at us next and have fun with it.

Oh yeah? Well that's handy.

As usual you're a fount of good ideas. [And sometimes crappy ones, but at least he hadn't broken his cock from sheer recklessness three times.] I'll look into it.
