[This is sometime in the late morning on the first day of the flood.]
Am I the only one who's going to use some of this unexpected hiatus to do some character introspection?
[Linda Smith is dressed in a Mickey Mouse t-shirt and jeans. She's seated on the couch in her character's "room"--the set for it, that is--and is leafing through next episode's script. She gives off an air of personal casualness but is clearly giving a lot of attention to The Craft. Her voice, like Amanda's is small, but now it's not as loud and has none of the angry edge to it.]
For example...this moment. Scene 26. My character is conversing with Carolina's, and she's supposed to make a hand gesture. Thing is, I really feel that Amanda would use her left here. She's always been right-handed, but...I've begun to wonder if that's because I am. Should Amanda have been a lefty from the start? Did I just let my own personal handedness interfere with an important character trait?
[A pause, fully of heavy concentration.]
...then again, when so much of our fandom seems to think Amanda and Arthas are meant to be, I wonder how much of this analysis is wasted energy.
[A sigh, and she gently closes the script and sets it on the coffee table.]
I guess I could use a bit of a break after all. Anyone up for coffee? Lindsay? Teddy?
[That's her pet name for Theodore, her ~boyfriend~. A small smile.]
I'd like to get back to reviewing this evening, though. Everyone's welcome, of course! Especially people I have upcoming scenes with. We can do an informal line reading.
Sophie, if you want to practice your lines, we can meet up earlier in the day, too. You'll have my full attention.
[Linda Smith is a somewhat quiet, calm individual who is amiable with all her costars, as long as they treat her with respect too. She's best known for a variety of comedies and B-movies, including one where she played an oversexed, oblivious-to-everything ditz, and this is her first serious role in years. She really wants to do it right and prove she's cut out for drama, so she can go pretty overboard.]
