Prim and Monroe
- Primrose: After a long night of talking to her dad and some of his executives, Prim had finally gotten the green light to start developing an idea. The studio heads and her father had loved the idea of a Western. She had to get the news to Monroe, but she wasn't sure which apartment was hers, so she waited in the lobby and hoped that Monroe would walk by.
- Monroe: The demigod had just finished getting dinner for her and all of her roomies. Eight bags of burgers and fries were being carried, four bags to a hand, and they smelled delectable. Monroe could lie and say she hadn't seen Prim there, but that'd be a bald faced lie. She doubted anyone could miss the child of Aphrodite, who sat patiently in the lobby. "Hey, Prim," Monroe greeted, lifting a full hand to give a half wave. "What's up?"
- Primrose: Seeing Monroe trying to carry all eight bags by her made Prim feel a little stupid. There was probably a better way to find Monroe without interrupting her dinner, but Prim just couldn't wait any longer. "Sorry to show up unannounced," Prim stood up excitedly, "I have some big news, though! Mind if I come up? I can carry some bags."
- Monroe: "Oh no, you're good," Monroe said as she put the food in front of the lobby elevator. Pulling out her phone, she began to text someone, "Besides, all of my roommates want to eat and it'd be rude, cause I didn't really get enough to spare." She gave an awkward smile before shoving her phone back into her jean pocket. "Let's take a walk and we can talk? My brother will come down to pick the food up, so no need to worry about it. "
- Primrose: Prim beamed. "Sounds perfect!" She cheered. After Monroe's brother came and got the food, the two left the apartment building and began to walk the New Athens streets. "So I have news. I talked to Daddy and some executives at the studio and they are interested in seeing a pitch. Since it was your dream in the first place, I thought we should talk about what we want to do! The best part is, if it gets made, you'll get a writer and an actor credit. We would also be producers on the project. Also also, I insisted on a female director and a half male, half female writing team."
- Monroe: Monroe was a little confused as to what Primrose was talking about until about half way through her announcement. Once everything clicked, she stopped dead in her tracks, jaw dropped in shock. "Wait... you really asked about the western film?" The daughter of Nyx wondered, in need of clarification. "I thought you were just being polite... " Her eyes carried a warm appreciation for Primrose, not really knowing what to say, because nothing seemed to be enough.
- Primrose: Prim was taken aback by Monroe's surprised, then let out a lilting giggle. "Of course I asked about it!" She beamed. Prim linked her elbow with Monroe's as they walked, beaming up at her. "I'm really excited about it! This could be my next big thing! The project that really makes me a star star, you know?" She looked dreamily into the distance, imagining what she was going to wear to the Oscars. "So, since it was your idea in the first place, what exactly were you thinking? Consider me your sous chef in the kitchen that is your dreams."
- Monroe: She blushed, feeling sheepish. "Well... don't you think you'd have better ideas," she offered, trying to avoid sharing hr embarrassing dreams, "you are the actress, after all. I'm just a monster hunter."
- Primrose: Primrose laughed to herself. "Duh! Who do you think has better stories to tell, the girl who has made a career saying other people's words, or the one who has made a career hunting and slaying monsters! Actresses don't write movies. I have faith in you! You are on of the head writers after all."
- Monroe: Monroe gave a nervous laugh, scratching the back of her head awkwardly. "Okay... well I was thinking we mix the Gods with the western. Have you heard of The Bloody Benders? They're a family of killers from Kansas... now a movie has been made about them, but what if it was turned into them being monsters?" The demigod had began firing off her ideas, before pausing. "I'm sorry... I'm getting ahead of myself."
- Primrose: Prim was furiously typing away on her phone, noting down everything that Monroe said. "No, keep going! I love this idea! Using something like a real life murder spree gives us a grounding to jump off from." She glanced over at a bench as they were walking. "Want to sit down? It'll make it easier for me to take notes."
- Monroe: "Yeah!" Monroe replied, excitedly, before pulling Prim along with her. She was feeling a little more confident with her friend's validation. "There's a park this way with some benches." Monroe sat them at the first seat in sight, not wanting to lose her train of though. ".... so yeah, they could be greek monsters. The way they were discovered was an investigator went to investigate them, but went missing. So that investigator's brothers went to find him, but the family had gone and all that remained was a blood filled cellar. So our story could begin with following them!"
