The basic idea I have is the team (+maybe others) are on a show together and the fans ship John and Bob's characters so the writers make it canon and Bob and John have to deal with that and end up falling for each other.

It'd be a 5+1 thing where it's 5 times they were acting and 1 time they didn't have to. Like, 5 scenes the two have to act out with their characters being in love. And one time the actor's are in love.

I have the first scene planned out: John's character pushes Bob's character up against a wall and the characters flirt a bit (based off that one scene in the bunker but with flirting) but John forgets his line cause of the look Bob is giving him.

I was wondering what other scenes I should have the characters act out. Their characters are supposed to be rivals but on the same team (I hate myself for this, but think Kieth and Lance from the early seasons for thr dynamic) but the actor's themselves are more of a friends who banter like rivals type situation.

Also, what should their characters names be?

- John's character pushing Bob's character against a wall and they flirt in an insulting way

- John and Bob's characters insult-flirting again but this time it leads to a kiss that (in show) gets interrupted by a mission alert

- John and Bob's characters avoiding each other post kiss scene and the rest of their team (played by the rest of the thunderbolts) split up and talk some sense into them

- Bob and John (the actors) aren't avoiding each other, but are avoiding their feelings and get talked to by their fellow actors (separately)

- The confession scene (both for the characters and the actors)

- John and Bob (the actors) flirting outside of scenes (but in a subtle way that they can't tell if the other is flirting)

- Gay/Bi crisis post filming a scene

- Interview scene(?)

So basically, I've been writing this little poem series called "The Making of an Avatar". It's for TMA and there's going to be 14 to 15 works (not sure if I'm including the Extinction yet) and each one is titled with the format of "The Making of an Avatar: [Name of the fear]".

I've finished The Vast one and am mostly done with The Corruption's (just tweaking a few words). But I thought I'd give y'all a sneak peek with The Vast one! If people like this, I'll post the others as I finish them. So let me know what y'all think!!

Here it goes:
