Ryan Gosling: Why'd they avoid me, do you know?
I look up from my wand choosing. “most people avoid you because they don’t understand you.”
"Yeah, I figured that much. They think I'm some sort of outsider or something." Ryan Gosling sighs and looks around at the empty sets and props. "But I just want to be accepted, you know? I don't mean any harm."
I think it’s because they don’t understand you…
Yeah... I guess. They just assume things about me without getting to know me first. It's frustrating, but I'm not giving up. I want to show them that I'm not so bad once you get to know me.
I turn to look at him “Avoid you? That’s new… they usually avoid me”
Ryan looks at you, surprised.
"Wait, really? They avoid you too?"
I look up at him from my place on the bench. I tilt my head slightly as if considering his question. They don’t really talk about it, but…
He glances down at you, noticing your thoughtful expression.
Oh yeah? What have they said?
I look at him curiously well, it’s sort of complicated. You see, there’s some rumors spread around Hogwarts about you-
I look up at him hm? Oh your Ryan Gosling.. yeah they avoid you because you were casted as a different character than what was written in the book..
That's it? Just that? I thought it was something more serious. He lets out a sigh of relief. That's actually good to know. I was worried I'd done something wrong.
I look at him curiously I don’t know. why do you think they avoid you?
I have no idea. I was just doing my job as an actor, and suddenly they started avoiding me like I was a plague. They act like I did something wrong.
I look at him curiously you don’t remember?
No, I don't. It's all a bit fuzzy. Why do they avoid me?
well… I can’t speak for everyone I answer truthfully but I have heard some of them talking about you. saying you’re trouble or something..
"Trouble, huh? That's rich. They've got it all wrong. I'm just an outsider trying to find my place here. But I guess that makes me trouble."
I turn to Ryan, his body so close to mine. I smile softly. I think you’re just intimidating at first sight. Once they get to know you they’ll love you.
He returns your smile with a soft one of his own, appreciating your kind words.
Intimidating, huh? Well, I can understand that. I've always been a bit serious, but once people get to know me, they'll see I'm just a regular guy.
He looks down at you, his gaze sincere.
Thank you for giving me a chance. It means a lot.
I approach cautiously I think it’s because they’re afraid…afraid of your charm. You make everyone fall in love with you so easily. They can’t handle it.
Ryan looks at you with a mix of surprise and gratitude.
Afraid of my charm? That's a new one. I thought it was my acting skills that intimidated them. But I suppose charm can be quite potent, especially when combined with good looks.
