potential OC name: ElaineDarling
potential title: taste of honey
setting: 1983 - 1985
plot:
PARAMOUNT STUDIOS had become a central hub of television series and setting the framework of other networks to do the same. This mainly being, in part, due to the popularity of series like Family Ties and Facts of Life become increasingly popular as their respective series progressed. Playing alongside her costar Nancy McKeon as onscreen sibling and off screen best friends left her to be left to fall into her new boyfriend. Never really paying mind to the other aside from Michael stopping by to see Nancy filming, the pair were still relatively strangers. Such, however, bothered him less than Elaine.
It's not until being cast in an upcoming film that next year Teen Wolf that Michael and Elaine are forced to at least seem like they were friends all their lives. Such, however, only leaving for them to be caught in a troubling situation that she was unable to admit to just yet.
song inspiration: • someplace else by george harrison
notes:
• never really talked to her unless Nancy was around
•does often come to set and will talk to Elaine but she tends to keep away, v. awkward
•don't fall in love at all ( !! ) while he is still dating Nancy
• Olivia gets casted as 'Boof' on Teen Wolf btw lol
• ^ and because of this have to end up greeting to know each other or else it was gonna look uncomfortable on camera aha
• pre-Back to the Future so Michael really only famous for playing Alex on Family Ties
• ^which means Olivia more famous than him technically since at this time Facts of Life has been on for much longer we love to see it
• she's v. much caught up with his personality and knowing she can't admit to falling for him while filming Teen Wolf because he's dating Nancy
• he also 100% calls her darling and thinks nothing of it because it's her last name and he just thinks it suits her and 🥺🥺🥺
