31 Plays in 31 Days, #13 - “Man Cave”

Ah, now we’re on to something. This is also from that theoretical bottle episode I’d like to eventually do with Leah and Ryan for Dream Machine (season 2?) that I was noodling on with Day #8 - Flawless. This happens before that, when they first get to Ryan’s house to hang out and commiserate. I did a better job here of getting in that idea I had that they theoretically are hanging out to support each other through a difficult time, but every time one of them gets vulnerable about something, the other panics and deflects rather than engaging with it.

Other things I like about what I did here is that I thought it would be good and humanizing to give Ryan a slightly uncool hobby he doesn’t let a lot of people know about, and that this scene is actually kind of funny. Needs punching up, but not quite as much as some other scenes.
