Let's finish this first. I won't be able to type and eat at the same time anyway.

[and then he'll have to go and she'll head out and eat elsewhere, and that's fine

typetype]

Not even a drink...?

Oh, thank you. Coffee or tea is fine.

[enjoy the two seconds of small smile you got, goes back to writing]

[mesmerized.

oh no... she's cute... even while under thirty layers of makeup that fundamentally change her entire facial structure and a wig that doesn't suit her at all, her smile is so cute...]

[looks away and starts tapping at his phone once more. in a matter of minutes, an intern will be bringing a tray with both a coffee pot and a tea pot, and a small assortment of fancy tea bags to pick from, along with mugs, sugar, et al.]

[that is so much overkill

but since that's the case, ok, jasmine tea why not]

Thank you. Should I forward my edits to your email when I'm done or do you want to see them directly on my tablet?

[he has resumed typing on his laptop and going through papers, but at least he finally gave his sandwich a second bite]

Whichever is more convenient for you.

Okay.

[working

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh silence blessed silence good tea. getting in the editing groove. everything is clicking]

[if anybody were to look at Yue's screen right now, they'd find the document he was working on stopped looking like coherent text about three paragraphs ago. instead, it is now full of nonsensical keyboardmashing that goes on and on as he keeps trying to look at Catherine out of the corner of his eye]

[drinking her tea, tweak tweak hmmm]

Can you check if this is okay? [have her tablet

the camera is taped closed and has a sticker that looks like a coiled dragon tail lizard thing over it. honestly is whatever just something to put over her camera. pay no attention to it. (it's the logo of her light novel saga)]

[he is absolutely distracted by the little sticker for a good few seconds and is immediately filing this knowledge away.

okay, actually reading through the script again. what's changed?]

[the secret place thing starts on page four as requested, there's more balance between textual and Please ASMR This, it's longer because it's planned to be 10 minutes long and that extra time is being used for the buildup and the whispering sweet comforting things part which was added too

it may seem rushed to him but it's like. airtime functional. that whole knowing the medium and how timing works thing]

[smiles]

... Thank you Miss Marsh, it flows rather nicely.

[nods, takes back her tablet]

I'm glad to hear it. I'll send it to your email before I go.

[taptap]

By the way, it's standard for performers to make small changes during their recording sessions if something doesn't flow right depending on your delivery. But please don't change it too much because that's when it can become aimless or seem badly structured.

............

Understood, I'll do my best to keep the adlibs to a minimum.

[sent

drinking the last of her tea before she goes]

[she's going to leave. any moment now she's going to leave and if the boat sets off again in less than 3-5 days I might never see her again except for in my memories. I don't want to be not normal but I have no idea how to be normal when the baseline that was set for me was already the opposite of normal]

... Miss Marsh.

[looks up from her teacup]

Yes?

Are you... um... too busy these days?

I'm a freelancer. Too busy is negotiable.

Well, I was just thinking if you would be interested in reviewing the recording... before it goes into post-prod and I post it...

Weren't you too embarrassed to play your own OnlyF*ns recordings in front of me just a while ago?

[seen.]

—I'm asking because you wrote this one.

[the silence of someone who is trying to understand what is going on]

...I appreciate that you want to make me a part of the process. Do you want me to review it as in giving you feedback that you would be able to act on before sending it to post-prod?

—That's right! Just to ensure I don't accidentally ruin the flow or anything.
