drewstarkey replied to your story | 7:48pm Is that for the essay we talked about?
addisonmallory | 8:00pm Yep!
drewstarkey | 8:02pm How's it going?
addisonmallory | 8:02pm Pretty good, actually addisonmallory | 8:03pm I'm just doing the final touches for the second draft, last research today and tomorrow, and hopefully in a few days it'll be ready to set out into the world
drewstarkey | 8:06pm Can't wait to read it! drewstarkey | 8:07pm I actually asked Rudy and Madison about their thoughts on people looking up to actors like us, and they said that everybody's got power over other to some extent, our influence is just greater because there's more people listening drewstarkey | 8:07pm Which I found really interesting drewstarkey | 8:07pm Thoughts?
addisonmallory | 8:20pm Well that's 100% true, but I don't think that makes it fair, if you know what I mean addisonmallory | 8:21pm If Madison states something about economics and politics and I do the same, people are more likely to believe her because on their eyes, she's the one with more influence even though I am the one who actually studied it for almost ten years
drewstarkey | 8:23pm Yeah I get that drewstarkey | 8:24pm It's a tricky thing, no one can be right about this. I think what's most important is that people start to question who's got the authority instead of trusting whomever but what can you do
addisonmallory | 8:40pm It's so frustrating oh my god addisonmallory | 8:40pm I'd love to talk about it but this essay is taking all my brainpower rn, I'd be down for a proper discussion someday hahah addisonmallory | 8:41pm Are these the kind of things you guys talk about on the set?? lol
drewstarkey | 8:42pm Not really hahah I was just thinking about this and Madison and Rudy were around drewstarkey | 8:42pm And I'll definitely take you up on that offer 😊
addisonmallory | 8:43pm Cool cool addisonmallory | 8:43pm So you guys are filming rn?
drewstarkey | 8:45pm Yeah, we're about halfway through shooting drewstarkey | 8:45pm Done for the day though, I got off early lol
addisonmallory | 9:00pm Lucky lad lol addisonmallory | 9:00pm Is this time as exciting as the first time?
drewstarkey | 9:01pm Kind of I guess, a lot of the excitement was partly because everything was new and we didn't know what the reception would be like, and all of that is gone drewstarkey | 9:02pm But the story is even better this time around, everyone's really excited about their roles, and it's nice to be back into working with the guys after we bonded a lot throughout last year
addisonmallory | 9:04pm Aw omg that's so sweet, really makes me excited about season two addisonmallory | 9:05pm Is it weird going back into Rafe's character though?
drewstarkey | 9:07pm Also kind of lol I ended up doing some reading again drewstarkey | 9:08pm It's easier than it was the first time because now I know him better, but it still took me some getting used to drewstarkey | 9:08pm It's the same for everyone though, we're all quite different from our characters
addisonmallory | 9:20pm Obviously lol addisonmallory | 9:20pm See I could never become an actress or anything, I can't even pretend I like my coworker's fucking cat 😂
drewstarkey | 9:21pm Haha yeah acting isn't the easiest thing in the world drewstarkey | 9:21pm This is why I'm relaxing rn, I've been up since like 4am and it's shittt
addisonmallory | 9:23pm Ewww addisonmallory | 9:23pm waking up before 10 should be illegal
drewstarkey | 9:25pm I'd be okay with 7/8am honestly drewstarkey | 9:25pm Anyway I'm about to fall asleep, but it was good chatting to you!
addisonmallory | 9:40pm You too!!
