It’s amazing and definitely reminds me of home. Oh yes, it’s only downhill from here. There’s not much in the way of snow, but it gets exceptionally chilly and dreary as winter creeps closer. Is there any idea on how long you’ll be there for filming?

It’s a good job the UK is just an overall amazing place that it makes up for the terrible weather patterns. I can forgive it. I’m here for a few months, so I get to enjoy the great fall and winter. 

I was walking back to my apartment this afternoon after getting a cup of coffee with a friend and all of a sudden, from the opposite sidewalk, I see a guy pointing at me and shouting, and I shit you not, it was the loudest scream ever, “Bread makes you fat?!”.

Man, gotta love living in New York, right? Hi, I’m Mary Winstead. And yes, I am the one who broke it to Michael Cena, bread does make you fat. @tftmstarters·

He actually yelled that at you? I hope you called him out for it, but that is a random thing for him to shout. It’s nice to meet you Mary, I’m Jason..oh it was a quote from a movie you did. My bad, I thought some guy decided to be an asshole and start yelling at you.

So the heatwave has finally passed and Ontario is sitting at a comfortable 23.5 degrees, and rainy. I thought to myself - man, Jason would hate this! How’s England and the weather there? @jjnmcmca·

I’m glad to hear that it’s gotten cooler for you and that it’s more like what you’re used to. The weather in the UK is okay, it’s getting colder, I’m guessing that’s it for Summer here. It’s really living up to the stereotype of Summer only lasting a few weeks.

I like to be prepared, think ahead I guess, but I might actually consider that, I mean every night there are police sirens every where, some random guy signing can’t be the worst they’ve heard, right? Wait, THAT TV show is a thing? I need to find it, is on HGTV? Sounds like an HGTV thing. Why not go big? An entire rock band, a small gig. Or a Jazz band, those sax can be very loud.

When you’re in a city, a guy singing well in his own apartment is definitely not the worse thing going on. So if I were you I wouldn’t worry about it, unless you do get a noise complaint. Yeah, it’s basically people telling stories on their neighbours who are assholes, Karens or even criminals. Oh it’s a British show, I saw it the last time I was in London and got hooked for a bit when I had nothing else to do at night. Just fill your whole place with musicians and go wild. 

Oh no it’s super easy because you’ve obviously got those magical powers that makes you be able to do that. Kidding. CGI works wonders and helps to make the most magical things happen. You can always just pick up where you last left off and you feel like no time has passed between your meetings. That’s what I like to hear.

I didn’t want anyone to know that we can all actually do it, it’s top secret, we trained for months to learn to talk underwater. I don’t think the movie would have looked nearly as good without it and the SFX. That’s true, it’s never really the same though as seeing them day in and day out for weeks or even months. 

Thank you! I’m excited to get back to work and hang out with my friends. I’ve never adored a cast as much as this one. I’ll buy extra and wear them in your honor. If you weren’t warm blooded, which one would you buy? That way I can get it for you and channel my inner Aquaman. I’ve found a couple surprising ones in my research. Not sure I’d want to wear them personally, but I might be tempted.

Getting to see everyone again is always a great thing, especially when you’re like a family. If I could wear one I would probably pick a wolf, I hold them dear to my heart. But if you want to channel your inner Aquaman then definitely any type of aquatic animal of course. Or an actual Aquaman onesie if you can find one. Which ones did you find?

We are, and I’m pretty guilty too. Feel like all we do is moan about the rain, moan about the heat, hope for snow, the complain about it. There’s no pleasing us, mate. I love it actually, just think I over ate it at one stage of my life and now I gotta really really fancy fish and chips. As for a Sunday roast, I haven’t had one of these in a while either. I haven’t had a decent roast since my mum passed, she made the best dinners. Not doing very good here am I? The most two British meals and I haven’t touched them for months. Disgrace. 

What would you say your perfect weather would be then? Since all you guys do is complain about it. Ohh okay, how do you make fish and chips fancy? I always thought it was just like the UK version of fast food, it’s meant to be cheap. I’m sorry to hear about your mom, nothing does it quite like your mother’s cooking. Hey it doesn’t make you any less British, if you’re living outside of the UK I guess it’s hard to get your hands on it.

Even better! It’s just a few days, but it’ll be right on time, it’s not that I’m missing out a lot. It’s strange, I was a lot messier before I had kids and now I turned into kind of a tidier. I’m not a cleaner, but I definitely wanna keep things neat and tidy. Of course, they’re kids! You can’t expect everything to be perfect, muddy footprints are a part of the joy of it.

I really didn’t think this through did I. I don’t think it will be long until we start to see Christmas things in stores. I get that, it’s like suddenly you go into parent mode and just wanna clean everything. Don’t get me wrong, I keep a clean home, but I don’t wanna be one of those people who just spends all their free time making sure every inch of the house is cleaned daily. I’d rather be out doing other shit. 

However tonight seemed to be different, as they walked hand in hand together onto the yacht. This would be the first time that Jason would be seen with another woman ever since his divorce. While it wasn’t unusual for Jason to be seen with Emilia at parties, but even they were never caught like this. Jason immediately unbuttoned his black suit jacket, already getting warm just from the two layers he had one. He glanced around as he took in his surroundings, smiling as he watched people, some he recognised, dance and talk in small crowds. The music wasn’t loud, it was just enough to create a happy atmosphere that matched the glow of the lights. “Would you like a drink?” He bowed his head down towards Emilia, a grin flashing across his face. @emclxrke​

With the announcement that Shadow and Bone is getting a second season I’ve taken it upon myself to stock up on as many animal onesies as possible. I mostly wore a rabbit one during season one filming and I think I need one for each day of the week now. If you’ve yet to lounge around your trailer or the hair and makeup trailer in something as comfy as an animal onesie I highly recommend going out and buying one right now. Please throw some suggestions at me for some fun animals to get for my collection. @tftmstarters·

Congrats on the second season, it’s always an amazing feeling when your show gets picked up for another season. You should definitely buy as many as you can find, I would try it but I’m incredibly warm blooded and spend most of the time in my trailer wearing a vest because I get too hot quickly. You should just google the weirdest animal onesies and they will be my suggestions. Then you can just get weirder and weirder as time goes on with filming.
