Iâve seen a couple of fics where Jody mistakes Ryland for Colt and is then embarrassed when she realises that she was flirting with her boyfriendâs BROTHER and not him, BUT!!! Have we considered the other way around?
Coltâs shooting some stunt work in San Fran and asks his brother to come to set to visit him, and also to introduce him to Jody, the cute camera operator heâs crushing on hard! Ryland of course says âyes!â And makes his way to set.
Jody sees him at craft services and for a split second thinks âColtâs dressed weird today?â Before remembering that heâs currently in a rehearsal for a defenestration stunt and that this guy must be the brother heâs been talking about. (Based on my own experience as a twin, I take every opportunity to talk about my sister when Iâm at work. But thatâs a post for a different day) So she makes her way over to him because heâs looking a little lost. He very quickly tells her that heâs looking for Colt⊠Mr Seavers? Whatever heâs going by, and she lets him know where his brother is.
âOh good, thatâs good.â He says white knuckling a coffee cup like his life depends on it. Heâs so nervous! Is it the stunt his brotherâs about to do? No this is something else. She asks him whatâs up and heâs so jittery awkward about it and sheâs been so nice when everyone else has just been stupid busy and running around like headless chickens that he just word vomits that Coltâs not the only person heâs here to see.
âHe wants me to meet his new⊠girlfriend? Sheâs a camera operator, you might know her actually. Jody Moreno?â
And oh. Oh ho ho! He DOESNâT KNOW SHEâS JODY!! Oh this is juicy! She should tell him who she is ⊠but this is more fun. So she plays along and leads him to where Colt is all the while asking leading questions like âSo Coltâs pretty serious about this girl huh?â And âDoes he talk about her often?â (The answers are âUH YEAH HEâS SERIOUSLY IN LOVE WITH HER!â And âHe literally never shuts up about her, itâd be annoying if it wasnât so sweetâ but Ry has at least some restraint to not blurt out his brotherâs biggest feelings to the⊠techie? Yeah techie next to him)
Eventually they get to set and Coltâs about to do his stunt when they get there and heâs so excited to see his brother who heâs not seen in MONTHS! When he realises that⊠oh shoot. Heâs been so wrapped up in his own nerves that he never asked her for her name! What a jerk!
âThank you so much for helping me, Iâm so sorry, I never got your name?â
âOh donât worry about it, Iâm Jody. Jody Moreno.â
