Alison

Another day, another costume photo session.

Shay's costumes jusy keep getting better. And the make up artist, Chloe, Alison has worked with before. She always does a great job, but it's really hard to sit next to her & not stare at her gorgeous breasts. As far as she knows, Chloe is straight & that's a good thing, because Alison needs all the help she can get in her mission to be a decent girlfriend to Kelly & not drive her off the way she's done to all her past relationships.

These 'actresses' however seem to have no history with the studio. Byron's been finding his actors for this film in all kinds of weird places, but these two are a complete mystery. "Where the hell did you find these flakes, Byron? They don't have SAG cards, no one has ever seen them before, and the pale one smells like she's been sleeping on the street for awhile..." It would be just like him to snag some junkie waif out of a shelter somewhere...but he seems to not have a clue about them either, as though they came out of central casting or something.

"Get them straightened out, then Alison. I don't have time to find new actresses, so do what you have to do with the studio & SAG. We start shooting next week..." Why does he never put Ruben on these jobs?

The other woman here today that Alison couldn't account for approaches her & tells her she's Byron's psychic & she doesn't like the vibe she's getting from the actresses. Well, you don't have to be a psychic to get a bad vibe from those two, the stink on the pale one alone is enough to turn anyone off. Anyone but Byron that is, the award winning director with a personal psychic. Is she going to be on set for this whole shoot? Alison isn't looking forward to dealing with the 'feelings' of some 'psychic'...the actors are bad enough on their own.

"All right, we're done here," Byron announces, in his 'I'm the ruler of the universe' tone, "Alison, get the film to the lab, tell them I want it rushed, in two hours. Wait for it there if you have to. Then send one copy of the proofs to the studio, and one set here. I want prints ordered ASAP. Ruben, take Shay's design sketches down to special effects studio, I want this all co-ordinated with them. Shay, Chloe, you did great job with Delirium & Nuala, I want you to two to get together & work on Lucifer & the demons next. Get going, all of you." Lovely, Alison, thinks, hang around the photo lab for two hours while the customer service geek stares at her tits.

Whoa...she's not just his personal psychic, after all. Alison had frequently speculated Byron might be 'in the closet'. He's had high profile relationships with almost every leading actress he's ever worked with, and he treated them all worse than he treats herself & his other assistants, yelling at them on set & not caring if he made them cry. He clearly never loved or even really liked any of them, and Alison had begun to wonder if he dated them purely for the benefit of the tabloids, while he had some secret boyfriend stashed somewhere. It wouldn't be the first time in the history of Hollywood, after all....but now she's got something new to wonder about Byron....

"Alison, my film isn't getting processed while you're standing here..All of you, get going," Byron commands when he finally pulls himself off his psychic. Feeling a little silly for staring, Alison rushes out to the lab with the film.
