"Stop laughing. Dan- Daniel! Stop it. Stop laughing, Daniel! God, you're such a child! Shuddup, ye-"

Rehearsal last night was hilarious beyond measure. Turns out me and Daniel have the most difficult scene to play - because it'll be nearly impossible to keep a straight face doing that. 'That' - being ridiculous, Shakespearean overacting at the beginning (we're playing a pair of (bad) actors rehearsing a scene) and following that a serious(ly loin-inflaming), passionate seduction scene.

... We've never laughed so much. Daniel is the dearest most innocent adult man I have ever met. He's regularly mortified in my presence because when I get a bit merry down at the pub after classes, I quite like talking about sex. Now, the mention of sex alone will see poor Daniel go tomato red and sink into his chair. Last night he ended up giving me a handshake when the instruction had been to embrace me passionately. And when told to make it a bit more, well, sexual... he placed his hand on my elbow after much consideration. At least he did realise what he was (or, rather, wasn't) doing and could laugh at himself. And oh boy, did we laugh. Not to mention the passionate kissing - when we got around to it eventually - was frequently interrupted by giggle fits. And it wasn't me giggling! I was actually quite enjoying it. There's a point where he's kissing my neck, and whew! As far as being seduced, there ain't much acting involved for me, ye get me? ;)

Oh, this play is gonna be mad. I'm loving it!
