Backstage AU - Kei and Adira

'Keiren' is filming the tavern scene with 'Adira' but not used to keidran in the fur, suggested by Abstract Indigo! Based on Page #1260 where he blushes.

Reminder that Keiren is stuck as Adria right now in the comics

Bricknomic

Oooh, is this a historical drama?

Dave is in accounting. When he is not cooking the books for the show, he is also helping out in make up department.

Final rambling comment here, promise - feel free to skip over if you're not into backstage AU thoughts and prompt generation! The backstage AU was floating in my head for a month or so now. One thing I really wanted to achieve (despite severe space limits!) was to convey that the actors are real people, with a real cast dynamic. Tom's dialogue for Kei/Van here matched perfectly what I would have gone for, and I've already mentioned how his interpretation of Adira is 110% him - it couldn't fit in any better if I tried. The actors aren't blank slates, they have their own characterisation, however that compares/contrasts to their 'real' characters in the comic. Part of generating the idea was to speculate on what sort of production TwoKinds is. I decided to go with a GoT style dark fantasy show -> Edinmire arc is the start of the current season (plot accelerated for TV) -> Keiren's actor only recently joined the show -> not used to cast (or as with prompt, keidran) -> visual gag we see. A couple of other dynamics/characterisation I built in my head trying to figure out good prompt ideas, off the back of this (just my ideas, but what I was thinking while coming up with this gag): Cast in general - a family dynamic, lots of teasing, jokes, and banter. Flora's actress as the cast "team mom"/"big sister", she's been around as the main lead alongside Trace's actor since the start. When I was thinking about Vanity's actress, I liked the idea of them being best friends / big-sis little sis relationship with comedy rage thrown in. Flora's actress loves her "little fox", but some of the pranks make her want to strangle that damn fox with exaggerated comedic Flora rage. Vanity's actress started with the idea of "What if Vanity's actress was basically Vanity, with no magic/evil, just pure flirty gremlin chaos and pranks". The teasing here perfectly fits that. I had some other ideas like she started as a stunt/body double on the show since the beginning (how she knows Flora so well), and that she was incredible at mimicking others' voices and mannerisms like a 'real face stealer'. I'd love to throw in a gag about her 'stealing' voices, but I think that's almost impossible to get across in this format, it would need a lot of dialogue / reactions. But in my head, she loves teasing others that way. Hope someone finds that interesting, and it either inspires your own ideas or maybe you agree that's some fun dynamics to build off for the future. Thanks all, and again full credit to Tom here!

Gotta love the adorkable gigglesnort fox.

I love how wholesome everything is in the AU.

It's good to know that Vanity is still a silly fox behind the scenes.

The chair has the actress' real name but I can't see the first letters. "nny" "Sunny" Bunny" ?
