The other day…
2) Research
One beautiful Wednesday morning, when Terri wasn't scheduled to be on sight for filming, she flashed her ID and entered the set nevertheless. Although she would hardly ever say so, but one of the greatest things to her about entering the Castle set is that she never knew in what world she would step into today. There seemed to be something different going on every day.
She quickly maneuvered her way to where her husband's director's chair was situated and was only slightly surprised to find him in attendance. Usually he was all over the place, planning, rearranging and ushering people around. Today however, he was sitting in his chair, calmly sipping at his coffee. That alone should have been indicator enough for Terri that something was amiss, but as she quickly approached him, her mind never went there for she was simply happy to see him, as she usually was.
Andrew: *happy* Hey!
Terri: Hey yourself. *quick kiss* What's up?
Andrew: *shrugging and leaning back in his chair* The usual madness.
Terri: *eyebrow raised* What does that mean?
Andrew: Oh, you know...
Nathan: *Running by, Stana hot on his heels.* Aahhh! Help, somebody! Anybody!
Stana: Don't be such a baby, Nathan! Just come here, will you?
Nathan: Why won't anybody help meeee?
Andrew and Terri stare to the right, in the direction their two leads have disappeared to, she confused, he with a neutral face.
Terri: What the hell-?
Andrew: It's been going on for an hour now. *shrugs* Nothing I say will stop them.
Terri: *more confused than ever* But what exactly is goin-?
Nathan, followed closely by Stana, runs by again, this time in the other direction.
Nathan: You can't be serious. Heeeelp, I say!
Stana: You know how serious I take these things!
Nathan: OMG!
Stana: Don't be such a drama queen! Come here!
Terri and Andrew look after them mutely.
Terri: *exasperated* I don't understand?
Andrew: You see, Stana started watching season 3 again and yesterday she saw "Nikki Heat". So today she decided that in order to bring a convincing performance of loved up Beckett, she needs to sleep with Nathan. You know, in the name of character research.
Terri: What?
Andrew: *grinning into his cup while pretending to take a sip* Yeah. I told her she is great just the way she is but she won't hear it. She insists but poor Nathan is apparently not up for a more intimate research just now.
Terri: *smiling knowingly at Andrew* Because he doesn't want to or because everybody is watching at the moment?
Andrew: *smiles back* What do you think, smart one?
Terri: *sighs dramatically* Oh these kids.
They share a grin and a kiss. He takes her hand and stands up from his chair.
Andrew: This might take a while. Want some coffee from my private stash?
Terri: As if you have to ask!
Andrew: *tugs playfully at her hand and raises an eyebrow* And then you can show me that magic trick again. The one where you let all my pens disappear?
They both laughed and then once more when, from a distance, their male lead's strangled cry could be heard throughout the studio.
