sing, sweet nightingale.

Hey there! Albertus Tremaine, here, but please, for the love of God, call me Albie -- That's slightly less embarrassing. (Slightly.) I'm a senior at Walt High, running back on the football team, and the proud owner of a spiffy leather jacket.

So, I think it’s kind of bullshit that only one woman has ever tried out for the NFL and she probably just did it as a publicity stunt. So now I’m like, hey, I’m awesome at football, maybe I should try out for the NFL instead? I know, I know, it would be a crazy departure from basketball, my one true love, but like… I don’t know, the draft last night has me feeling kind of hyped about the idea. What do you guys think? 

[albietremaine]

But if you did that then you’d be far away and then our team would suck! I don’t think me and Cayo would be able to hold it down without you.

@serenityhope: I need you to know that I loved every second of that show, @aforalbie.

@sylvie: Omigosh, you were so good, @aforalbie! I didn't fully get it...but I think that's normal? But you were so so good! :D

@aforalbie: Thanks! ❤ We got mixed reviews but I think anyone with a brain enjoyed it. :P And you're one of them!

“Learning the choreography for the sword fights is awesome. But what’s not awesome is that I kill my literal favorite person in the world and then get stabbed by one of the few people that I like.” 

[albietremaine]

“Okay, but get this Fred -- getting stabbed by you is my favorite part of the show! Don’t let your love for me tinder your creative process. Just let it flooooooow.”

“Ugh, I for serious wish I’d eaten more than carrots today,” Sage pouted as she sat at a table picking at a basket of conversation hearts, searching for all the purple ones to eat. “I like, so would have if I’d known we were going to be stuck here all night.”

[albietremaine]

“Here, have some of my chicken nuggets,” Albie retrieved a small sandwich bag full of Mickey D’s nuggets from his coat pocket and offered them to Sage. “I snuck them in cause I’m going hard on the protein to build up for the show but there wasn’t gonna be any main course or anything here.”

Lyssa: Mercutio, though, that's really exciting! And the more I read about this play, the more it's certainly going to be an adventure for all of you. Oh, well, you know - my dad's so theatrical, I had to do SOME things his way. Most of the time I begged him to read me bedtime stories, but other times I'd sing along with him, and I guess I missed it a little bit. That's me! The most lawless hands in all of Walt, it's just my rotten luck that I stumbled across someone so good at keeping them down :D

Lyssa: 😍😍😍 I love you too!!

Albie: Yeah he's such an epic part I'm so excited! And I get to sing fun pop songs so I cannot wait. That's so cool, haha, I wish my mom was like that! Well I mean...she's dramatic, but not in the fun way. :P How is it in the Damsels though? Is it fun??

Albie: Yeah I just figured I hadn't said it yet and why not say it when I definitely feel it, you know???

Cayo: DUDE, Nice! i'm glad I could be accidentally brilliant, that sounds like you guys would have an amazing time. I don't know, I love football and baseball and stuff but I don't think I'd love doing it for millions of dollars, I'd feel like a greedy jerk! Is there a major for coaching teams of little kids?

Albie: Right?? We could like...see the Walk of Fame and the Hollywood sign and try a spin class and other LA things! Ummmmmm isn't Lux majoring in like...body and muscle stuff? Kinesiology? OOOH or maybe there's like a Health major or something!

Lyssa: Are you nervous about the cast list going up? You always seem so cool and collected about these things lol, meanwhile I was a nervous mess auditioning for an acapella group! I fully support that plan! Especially the part where you hold onto me to keep me from the books. It's obviously super very especially necessary O:-)

Lyssa: That's amazing! I really HAVE been slacking, the universe must just have wanted me to wait for you :D

Albie: A little bit??? Idk there's a liiiiittle less pressure when you know there's no way you'll get one of the leads but I'm still a little nervous. That's so cool I'm so proud of you!!! I didn't even know you sing like that! Oh yeah your hands are like...bandits that I gotta restrain from thieving some books. It's suuuuper urgent to keep 'em locked down. :P

Albie: lolololol I love you.

Cayo: Maybe you need to take summer trips or something! Take someone super smart with you. Like, if I went I'd be like COUSIN TRIP and make Izzie go so that she could read maps and teach me why old buildings are important. Uh... I don't have one yet. I have until next year to decide, right? What's a good one? What should I dooooo?

Albie: oh yoooooooooooooo I SHOULD TAKE A SUMMER TRIP TO HOLLYWOOD. And I could take Lyssa!!!! You're a genius Cayo! Oh, well I just looked at what makes me the happiest and that's acting so I chose theatre like, right away! What makes you happiest???

Cayo: Why is it scary? Do you not like planes? I bet you could take a train instead, you seem good on the Walt express! I don't! Crap! What would Real Life Freshman Cayo be good at? Choosing a career's like choosing classes, right?

Albie: it's scary cause I've never been there before, I guess. I've only been two places: my home and here. Hollywood will be like, super new. idk if anyone would even like me! I mean, sometimes choosing classes fits with choosing a career? What's your major?

Lyssa: The line about 'seeming trust' always haunts me everytime! I think you could sell any of them though, and find a way to put the right character's spin on anything you chose. OH YAY! Watching it with you sounds much better than watching on my own, I get distracted so easily when there are books on my bedside table, oops! And everything's better when you're there anyway ^_^

Lyssa: Oh that's true! I wasn't sure if they... modernized the dialogue, or if it was a completely true adaptation as far as that went! That's good to know.

Albie: Yeah actors always have a way of figuring that out! LOL well for one night, I will force you to look at an epic movie with guns and fun camera angles and John Leguizamo, and I'll even hold your hands to make sure you don't pick up the nearest book. :P

Albie: They didn't it's the straight-up Shakespeare words lol. You'll love it for that reason, I think!

[albietremaine]

You're the nicest guy of all time and still the #1 smartest person I get to call a friend. We HAVE to chat more this year before you get too Hollywood for lil ol me!

Send me confessions before the new year.

[albietremaine]

I miss talking to you and I'm so sorry that I've kind of pushed you to the back burner in the last year. You always made my days brighter when we talked and in 2019, I'll try my hardest to be a better friend again. Also, your girlfriend is so pretty and you two are so sweet. I'm glad you found someone as beautiful as you.

Send me confessions before the new year.

[albietremaine]

I like you so so so so so so so so so much that I think there's a better word for it but saying it for the first time seems like such a big deal that I don't know if I should do that yet!

Send me confessions before the new year.
