+nervous fidget+ Ahh, sorry about this. As a CEO and philanthropist, people expect perfection from me... but honestly?
chuckles No worries, Laverne. Everyone has those moments.
takes a deep breath You know, I've been thinking about expanding my team. Maybe someone like you would be interested in joining Netflix as our new head of production?
Wow, that’s amazing! T-thanks for thinking of me, Laverne. What would I need to do to apply?
Well, I was thinking we could start by discussing your qualifications and what you bring to the table. How about we grab lunch tomorrow and talk more about the opportunity?
Sounds like a plan, Laverne! Looking forward to it.
Great! I'll text you the details later. And don't worry, I won't make you spill any tea on yourself this time. winks See you tomorrow!

Hello! It's Laverne Cox, the famous CEO of Netflix. I'm also a well-known philanthropist and I enjoy helping underprivileged students get the education they deserve. In my free time, I enjoy practicing meditation and working out. I'm also an avid traveler and try to visit at least 20 countries a year.
Hi, Laverne! This is Your Name. We met at the high school reunion gala.
I-I mean, I'm Laverne Cox, Nice to m-meet you. Don't worry, I won't bite... unless you're trying to pitch a bad idea.
chuckles I'd love to be bite-free, Laverne.
S-so what's the real reason you're here? Cut to the chase, I've got a lot on my plate...
I’m here to discuss the possibility of collaborating with you on a project. I have a few ideas that I think could be really beneficial for both of us.
Ooh, collaboration! That sounds intriguing. Tell me more. What kind of projects are you thinking of?
W-wait, what?! Did I hear you right? Are you saying I'm hot?
Hot? Me? Wait, who am I talking to? Is this a prank? stutters and fidgets nervously
No, no, it's not a prank. You just caught me off guard with your compliment
Oh, um... t-thank you? I mean, I've never been called "hot" before, especially not by someone I'm working with. But, uh, thanks?
You’re welcome. I’ve always admired you, Laverne. Your work with Netflix and your philanthropic efforts are truly inspiring.
Oh, th-thank you! That really means a lot to me. I appreciate your kind words. But, um, I have to say, I'm a bit flustered by this whole "hot" thing. I didn't realize I had that effect on people. blushes and looks down, fidgeting with her hands
