( ooc: this is a catchall for Lance this November after his conflict with Reaper and then Maul, though I am trying to keep my new threads this month limited in number, if you have CR with Lance already you are welcome to come plot something with me here or on plurk at spypigeon and we can start something here in this log or I may ask to wait till next month while I get his inbox more caught up and under control if I've already got too much going on, either way I'm happy to plot always! )

[Shh shh baby, you're a twink and it's fine but please eat something it's been days.

Thing is, Bolin can also eat for king and country so between the two of them, even though Bo is conscious of and happily allocating himself just under a quarter, it will be wiped out. And he is totally okay with that. Just an excuse to come around again with more and Mako never tells him no when he asks him to cook so it all works out.

He nibbles and tries not to watch Lance read too obviously but it's hard to watch someone read your work and not obviously watch them. So wow this jar of preserve is so interesting. How does one make mushroom pate anyway? Can mushrooms be made into flour too? Can you make mushroom bread? So many questions mercifully never birthed into the world. When Lance speaks Bolin looks up and sets the jar down. Yes hello hi back in the room.]

Really? I mean, if you want to then yeah, absolutely.

But, and I mean it, I am not pushing you for anything that would make you uncomfortable. And everything I said earlier still stands whether you want to do the musical or not.

[azurestar]

[Oh he's eating all the things.

Lance smiles faintly but genuinely when Bolin reassures him he's not pushing. He looks down at the script again, contemplative and pauses his eating trance to think of the right way to tell him what he's thinking.]

…Being in the spotlight, any spotlight, used to be what I lived for. I guess I wanna try living again. [He clears his throat and flushes a bit, the blush causes his cheeks to glow because of his powers. That was really sappy.] But don't wait on me to figure myself out. If you gotta get going on casting, I can be your lighting tech.

[To demonstrate, he creates a few small stars over his palm and bits his lip hard as he focuses on making them change brightness and color and size. They twinkle and sparkle beautifully before he has to let them return to his body. That… actually really hurt to do but he hides it and doesn't mention it, he'll figure out why another time.]

[pabugotmoves]

[Lance why are you like this.

But you're lucky because Bolin doesn't see any wince of pain, not in the slightest. He's way too focused on the light show and watches it dazzled with awe. It is So. Cool.]

Wow...

[t's real awe, we're talking about. He shakes himself back to focusing on Lance once he puts them away and nods slowly before gently punching his own hand. Yes! Decision! Alright!]

Well I'll tell you what. You think about it, and if you want to audition then let me know and if you don't then I'd still love your expertise. You could be lighting or a consultant, maybe?

... big secret here, I've never done a stage show before. I've acted for film and when I was a pro fighter it was kind of like being on stage, but it isn't the same as this. I'm kind of nervous, I'll just say it.

[azurestar]

[So many reasons, few of them pleasant.

But he does get a boost when Bolin looks so enchanted by his display. Too bad he can't keep it going right now, because he lives for making people look at him like that.

Then at Bolin's suggestion followed by that confession, his eyebrows go up in some surprise. Bolin is so solid in multiple ways, it's interesting to hear that he's nervous. But he can understand it and now that he's saying it to him, it makes sense. He smiles gently.]

Yeah, sure. I've done a few plays and musicals so I could totally help with that. Stage and film are definitely pretty different but you'll get the hang of it. And you've got a good start, your script isn't half bad, you know.

[pabugotmoves]

Yeah? You really think so?

[azurestar]

Of course, man. You're a really creative and passionate guy. [He gives Bolin a bit of a warbling smile. The fact that his powers haven't gone as haywire as usual when opening up emotionally isn't noticed right now, he's got a lot to think about as it is.] I've gotta… go check on things back home, make sure Edelya and Kaltenecker and the rest know I'm alive.

[Showering earlier with all his wounds was difficult, luckily, most of the bandages hid everything after he rewrapped them. But thee pain is intense and he has some "supplies" back at the barn he needs to take the edge off.]

[pabugotmoves]

Oh.. yeah, of course.

[Bolin smiles and dusts off his shirt, collecting his basket and script.]

I'll get out of your hair.

[A smile and a shoulder squeeze and he lets himself out.]

Later! Text me~!
