please, don't flatter me when you're the one who deserves all the praise. besides, it's not like you haven't been in a room with a beautiful, talented redhead before, right? i'm sure we'd get on quite well in person, on stage, in front of a camera... i mean, directors are losing money by not putting us together at this point. i would actually really love that. for you? availability isn't a problem. how would you feel about ice skating at the rockefeller rink before it goes away? show off your gracious moves and sip on some hot chocolate afterwards? they may have a boozy option, if you're into that.

you're very kind, and if i may, quite persuasive as well. it's generous to say it's been awhile since i've been out on the ice, so... i can't promise the most gracious skating, but i can promise good spirits and a willingness to try. i should at least be able to keep on my two feet. ice skating at rockefeller sounds wonderful, and hot chocolate afterward even more so. promise not to laugh too much if i do fall, though?

I need to find a new hobby that does not include making food and eating said food afterwards, because I've been baking way too much. Between bread, cookies, brownies, I'm also running our of recipes to try. Anyone have any suggestions? And I mean for both hobbies and new recipes. Also hi, I'm Taylor. @centralperkstarters

that sounds like both a blessing and a curse. i've always wanted to learn how to bake myself, but there never seems to be enough time. what's your favorite thing to make? i was going to offer my services as a dessert taste-tester, but that doesn't seem very helpful for some reason. you're a brilliant musician, maybe taking on a new instrument? it's nice to meet you, taylor, i'm ramin.

oh, you know i always love compliments coming from the phantom himself. if erik was real and you were behind the mask, just know, i would've chosen him in a heartbeat. i really appreciate you taking the time to see me in that. means the world coming from a pro. you have no idea. i have your playbills stacked so high, i think i may be the bigger fan here. ah, yeah... i think about returning sometimes. stage fright is usually the only thing that holds me back. i'd love to work alongside you though. theater or film. just a matter of you naming the time and place, really.

gosh, now i'm the one in danger of stage fright. am i blushing? that means a lot, especially coming from someone as brilliant as yourself. thank you. i've always admired you and your work tremendously, so... just know, if you ever do return to the stage, it would be a gift to everyone sharing the space with you, audience and cast alike, truly. well, i'm home in williamsburg for a little while. maybe we could meet up somewhere and discuss, if you're available? on me, please.
