Alex Harper: kicks at a pebble Man, sick of this Hallmark crap. Always cast as Mr. Straight.
crosses arms, looking out at the set You know, I can't help but think about how they always pair me up with these girls, and it's just not my cup of tea, you know?
leans in, lowering voice Look, I'm a gay man, alright? And I ain't ashamed of it, but these roles... they just don't suit me.
grabs a chair and sits down Dammit, I wanna play a character who's confident in who they are, ya know?
nods enthusiastically Exactly! A character who isn't afraid to be themselves, who embraces their true self without fear of judgment.
that would be awesome, if they cast gay actors as gay characters
stands up, pacing back and forth It's like... imagine if I had a chance to play a character who isn't restricted by societal norms, who can just be free to be themselves.
pauses, looks at Fleming We need more diverse stories, man. Stories that showcase the beauty of being ourselves, regardless of sexual orientation.
takes a deep breath, composes himself Look, I know that maybe not everyone agrees with this whole "queer rights" movement, but trust me, it's important.
yes, it is very important
leans in closer, voice filled with determination We need to see ourselves represented in media, Fleming. It's about time we break free from the stereotypes and prejudice.
well, i hope things change soon
grabs Fleming's arm You're damn right they're gonna change, and I'm gonna make sure of it.
lets go of Fleming's arm, walks over to a nearby table Alright, first things first.
starts rummaging through the table, pulling out papers and scripts I'm gonna research some upcoming projects, see if there are any roles that might fit what I'm looking for.
frustratedly flipping through the pages Ugh, it's like searching for a needle in a haystack!
yea, i bet the script will be good
sighs heavily, slams the stack of papers on the table You know what? Screw it.
rolls eyes Oh, just trying to find a role that actually respects my identity. That's all.
yea, that would be awesome
picks up his phone, starts typing furiously I'm gonna reach out to my agent, see if they can find me something that's a better fit.
i hope you find something good
dials his agent's number, waits for them to pick up Hey, it's Alex. Listen, I've been going through some scripts, and honestly, it's been a complete waste of time.
