The Prometheus press junket, Annissa was quickly learning, was as aggressive as their recruiting. So intensely did they want to market after.life and the rest of the films on this season's releases, that Annissa couldn't imagine name a single late night talk show she hadn't been on in the last few weeks. Luckily, though, she'd been spared some of what Eila and Angel were going through. As the stars of the movie, they often had to do interviews with actual journalists, and while Annissa had been subject to a few of those herself-- Third-billed was nothing to scoff at, and she was technically right there with Eila on the leader boards --Annissa was always happy to step aside and do something fun for once. Prometheus wouldn't try to psychoanalyze Jimmy Kimmel.
She hoped.
So, Annissa had assigned herself to the B-Team, often hitting up small TV spots with Grayson Torrance-- They weren't close, only sharing one or two scenes together in the whole movie, but their characters were supposed to be. Besides, it was fun to spend time with someone who seemed to give even less of a shit than she did.
Made the lies a lot easier to weave, too.
Seated next to Grayson on the tall stools, Annissa squints one eye closed and peaks into the jar they're supposed to pull their "tweets" out of. "They took the gross stuff out of here already, right?" If Annissa has to read some racist comment about herself she's going to lose it-- And based on what the gossip blogs say, if there's anything homophobic about Penny and Anna, Grayson might lose it with her.
"Alright, guys," the producer calls from behind the cameras. Annissa snaps to attention, like a kid pretending they weren't eyeing the cookie jar. "No need for introductions. We'll be cutting this in with a few other promo teams so just jump right in."
The crew counts them down as Annissa fishes a slip out of the mason jar in her hand. Unfolding it, she turns to Grayson with a smirk already half-forming. "That Zadani chick--" Annissa snorts, her eyes reading faster than her mouth. "Sorry, sorry,. 'That Zadani chick would be hot if she didn't talk like a villain from Rocky and Bullwinkle.'" Annissa collapses into laughter.
"Aren't they Russian?"
