leanaura bautista NAURA ROSE XXV actress

[naurarose]

nealpercz:

        It took Neal a hot second, but only one. “Holy shit.” Naura fuckin’ Rose. It took him a moment, but he managed to piece it together while he regained his composure and sought to answer back. “Uhhhh, to be honest, no. Take a grenade for you? More like push us both the fuck out of the way. It’s only practical. Also, I totally follow you on Twitter.”

Naura winked when she noticed his slow but sure realization. “Then I guess I know what your least favorite Bruno Mars song is. Though I acknowledge your answer is innovative though not heroic.” She chuckled a little. “Oh, so you’re the one person that does. It’s good to know there’s a soul on this Earth that appreciates my rants and tweets about loving my mom. And you are?”

‘What’s The Scarlet Letter about, Tim?’

[naurarose]

“Is it really that obvious I haven’t smoked from a bong before?” Naura didn’t have a problem with marijuana; she’s smoked a couple joints with friends at parties before but she was never one to dabble further into it. Richard Linklater was casting for the female lead in this new movie of his and Naura wanted to consider herself somewhat a method actress. Which is why she enlisted help. “Why is it better than smoking it from a joint?”

♂ does your muse put on make-up? how long do they need for it every day?

Naura definitely does! It’s very minimal--a no makeup makeup look, essentially, but that’s more for every day wear. It’s her look when she does interviews or goes to conventions. When she’s at award shows or at premieres, she’ll glam it up a couple extra levels.

♦ any tattoos? where? what’s the story behind them?

She got it when she turned 21, and she kinda of regrets it. On her right shoulder blade are silhouettes of six doves flying. She saw it on poster at TJ Maxx before and thought it would be a pretty tattoo.

$ how much money do they spend on clothes every month?

She’s surprisingly very thrifty; she has the skill to find cute designer items for almost 30% of the price but because she knows how to get more bang for her buck, sometimes she’ll overspend and spend an average of $600 a month.

camilabeaumont:

“Really? I didn’t know that! Well, the lion kinda looked iffy, but I thought it was because he was having a bad fur day or something.“ She shrugged. Camila had to admit that she had watched that movie way too many times. She loved animals, and she loved cheesy love stories, so the flick was perfect for her. “Wait, really? But snakes are so cool! I really want to get one that glows in the dark or something, but I don’t my roommates would like that. Anyway! Uh…” Now that was a good question. It would definitely be easier to tell her what she didn’t like, though there weren’t a lot of things she could mention. “Uhhh, well the animals, duh!” She giggled. “And like, I don’t know! I like movies about zoo keepers that find love because like, I kind of want to be like an ocelot trainer or something so it’s a cool story to think of before going ton bed!”

An ocelot trainer? It was definitely an odd, very specific profession but Naura admired the aspiration. “Why ocelots specifically?” she asked curiously. “Wait--were you going to order something? Um, it’ll be my treat and I’ll be happy to pick your brain.”

giocaston:

Clutching the dress to her chest, Gio grinned, “There is no way you’re getting your hands on this, I’ve been wanting it for months. Actual months! I didn’t try it on yet, but I did the last time I was here, and the time before that, and the time before that,” she wishes she were exaggerating, but it had such a high price tag it took some serious consideration before blowing her cash on it. “A young gal like me is seeing that there’s space in a market that appreciates hand made garments. And that they’re willing to pay quite a lot for something that just has a tag that says ‘hand-made’ and knit with wool.” She shrugged, “And I just like making things. It’s a bit of a family trait. We make things, and if they’re good enough that other people want them, we sell them. Beats being a lawyer or an accountant,” she said, wrinkling her nose. She still needed to find an accountant. “But it’s not nearly as exciting as being an actress, which reminds me, can I have you autograph? And a picture?” Gio blinked, her eyes wide and projecting nothing but innocence.

Naura grinned, expertly concealing her wanting for that dress. She left it alone, but it was going to bug her for weeks. 

“An autograph and a picture? Jeez, I’m already giving you my money and you’re asking for a photograph?” She joked with her phone already out of her pocket. “Of course, I’d be so happy to! And I’ll send some fans your way and when others ask who I’m wearing I’ll gladly say it’s an original from The Hook Up.”

Speaking of... “If I needed a dress or an outfit made... Do you fulfill personal requests?”

seonhoryu:

Seon Ho couldn’t help the laugh, boisterous and vibrating. “It’s a part of being in the industry. Not the pretentious bit – I don’t think you’re being that way -- but having multiple people as part of your team that assist you with the different facets of the business.” At least, that’s what it meant when you quote unquote made it in the entertainment industry. 

“I have a social media consultant of sorts myself. She’s thirteen and accepts a minimal weekly allowance as payment.” His sister was a social media expert. She had been trying to show him how Tumblr worked the other day, but he got lost in the frustrating and malfunctioning platform. “She had to drill into my head how important it is to not have a double chin in a selfie. Your consultant is probably a lot nicer about it than mine.” 

His didn’t know his way around a camera or a phone the way that he did musical equipment. "With that kind of recall, it’s no wonder that you’re making it in Hollywood. Nah, I’ve never acted. When I’m not selling the highest quality of fish, you might have seen me around as a security guard. Someone’s gotta make sure that nudists aren’t streaking their way through the beach.” Seon Ho kicked at the dirt beneath his feet, tapping the ground rhythmically. “I dabble in music a little too. Not in the big leagues or anything like that, just something I do on the side, but maybe you’ve been unfortunate enough to witness one of my performances.” 

When Seon Ho put it in those terms, it made perfect sense to Naura, but Leanaura would have slapped herself for using words such as ‘publicist’ and ‘social media consultant’ in a real sentence.

“This thirteen year old is working you hard. I might have to ask for her contact info--but I would have to disagree and say that double chin selfies are the best type of selfies to take. Everyone has a double chin; it just takes a special angle. You and I will take a double chin selfie together one day.”

Naura swung her legs gently, taking her time to build up momentum, as she searched her mind for a time she saw him perform. “It was probably a fleeting moment, but I was right. I knew it was something. I can’t sing at all. And please, please don’t ask me to sing anything. The last time I performed a song was at a talent show. I sang a Celine Dion song and let’s just say it wasn’t my finest moment in life. How about you sing something for me?”

adipng:

”Hey, my bad,” Adi replied,her hands up in faux-defense and a friendly smile on her face.  “No problem. I’ll lay off next time - not that I think he’ll try it again, ” Adi wasn’t about to be angry at the girl for wanting to handle her own problems, she was used to being underestimated and could see how it was frustrating. “I didn’t know what to say the first time a mouthbreather did that to me, I guess I do it automatically now,” she explained, leaning against the wall. Her brows jumped at the question, and a laugh escaped before she could catch it. Adi couldn’t tell if she was joking or not - she’d had a conversation with at least one rando who thought they could become a vampire if they tried hard enough. “You’re kidding, right?” she asked, making sure not to sound like she was mocking her. “If you’re serious you could try swimming in the dumpster behind the gym, I’m pretty sure that shit’s radioactive.” 

This girl sounded awfully snobbish for having offered help and Naura held back a sneer that dared paint her lips. “Look,” she started pointedly, then she mentally took a step back and reprocessed her words. “Oh. Oh, nonononono, that’s not what I mean. I mean,” she chuckled softly with an apologetic grin. “I’m auditioning for this role and shamefully I must tell you as I am standing here in this shop I don’t know a single thing about teenage mutant characters except for the X-Men. And I know they’re not the only ones that exist out there. My knowledge is woefully limited.”

lenniedix:

“You know that food never actually makes its way to my mouth unless they’re extra, right?” Lennon rolled her eyes and stuffed the banana chip in her mouth before standing. “All right, come on let’s go eat. Banana chips are not even close to an actual meal and I’m not going to have you faint on me. You can choose where we go as long as it’s not a vending machine.”

Naura in no way wanted to impose on Lennie’s time, but her stomach was doing the talking for her. “How about the best Italian restaurant you can recommend. Or, you can prove your culinary talent by cooking me the best meal of my life.”

[nealpercz]

        “Dude. That fucking bird almost took a shit on you.”

[naurarose]

“The paparazzi would have loved that. If they were around. Probably not. You’re saying that you wouldn’t have taken one of the team and saved me?”

If there was one thing Camila hated, it was seeing someone she found familiar but not remembering where she had seen them.  As sneakily as she could, Camila walked towards the girl, still studying her face so she could remember where she had seen her before until it finally clicked. “YOU’RE THE GIRL FROM THE HALLMARK MOVIE ABOUT THE ZOO, I LOVE THAT MOVIE!” Maaaaaybe Camila had been a bit too loud, but Camila didn’t know how to contain herself. 

[naurarose]

It hadn’t been the first time she’d been recognized at a coffee shop but it was very rare that she’d been examined for closely and for so long. “Holy Jesus!” she exclaimed, jumping a little at the sound of the taller girl’s voice, holding a hand over her heart to slow it down. It startled everyone else around them, too, but they didn’t seem too concerned with Naura’s presence. The ‘zoo movie’ wasn’t Naura’s best work or one of her favored projects, admittedly, but touched the hearts of hopeless romantics who found comfort in cheesy movies. It was cute to see someone so excited to see her, at least see the face of a character in a movie they loved. “I’m so glad you do! It was really fun to work on. Most of the animals were CGI’d but the snake was one that I really got to hold. Terrified me.” She took a sip from her latte. “What did you like about it?”

×♠❅

× what does your muse smell like? what perfume/cologne are they using?

Naura is guilty of using a vanilla scented lotion from Victoria’s Secret but when she’s feeling extra fancy, she uses the free perfume samples she gets from Sephora.

♠ any ‘weird’ characteristics on their body? one leg/arm longer than the other?

She has a birthmark on her waist that vaguely resembles an apple and she has ginger toes, which means she can spread her toes wide apart.

❅ what do they usually wear when they’re not working?

She’s a huge fan of the basics. A white, black, or grey v-neck with skinny jeans and booties. It’s what she’s comfortable with since she didn’t grow up with brand-name clothing growing up. Naura wants to take more fashion risks which is why she’s searching for a personal stylist to help outfit her.

― The Pursuit of Happyness (2006) Chris: Don’t ever let somebody tell you that you can’t do something. You got a dream, you gotta protect it. When people can’t do something themselves, they’re gonna tell you that you can’t do it. If you want something, go get it. Period.

seonhoryu:

“Ah. Candid shots are more authentic. Which works in my favor in this case.” Seon Ho wasn’t sure if he could pose to save his life. He kept his fingers curled around the chain of the swings while she snapped the photos. Glancing at her screen, he hummed lowly in approval before reaching for his own phone, pulling up his Instagram app to search for her profile. 

“Not at all. Go ahead.” He waved a hand towards the opposite swing with an encouraging upturn of his lips. “So you’re Naura Rose. Verified and all.” He referred to the blue check next to her name on her profile. “You know, you seem to have a talent behind the camera and not just in front of it. You should start a sort of Humans of Venice Beach side project. I bet it’d be a hit.”

Naura nodded as she took the seat beside him. “That’s me, all right. In the flesh,” she grinned, flattered that she was recognized at all; it was a feeling she was never used to but accepted in its best. Naura remembered the day she was verified on Instagram and Twitter vividly, just thinking it was one step closer to being an A-List actress. 

“As interesting as that would be, don’t be fooled; it’s all in the filters and the angles. It’s something I learned from my social media consultant--” she stopped mid-sentence, face flush and eyes screwed tight, “--that must be the most pretentious statement you’ve ever heard in your entire life. God, like, pinch me if I say something like that again.”

She looked to him again, eyes squinted as if she were scrutinizing his appearance, but in fact she was just thinking. “But I know you from somewhere else. Do you act on the side, too? I mean, beside working at Tangaroa I could have sworn I’ve seen you somewhere else. And please don’t think I’ve been stalking you or anything. You see, I have a thing with faces and I’ve seen the name tag and you guys give the best portions.”

giocaston:

She laughed at Naura’s rambling, gathering her own clothes that she’d decided on purchasing, a sleeveless plum dress that she’d had her eye on for months. “Well you know I’d always love to help you with fashion choices, and now that I actually hired a couple of people in the shop I’d actually be able to answer my phone. Isn’t that a novel idea?” Stepping back into her shoes, she turned back to look at the jacket in question. “Well, I wouldn’t wear it with sweats and a tank top,” she joked, “But it depends, maybe a white button down and some slacks? Or some black skinny jeans, to dress it down a bit. Depends on where you’re going. What were you thinking of wearing it with?” 

“They should call you Gio the Genius. I’ll change your contact info as soon as I get ho--ooh!” Her eyes flitted to Gio’s pile, “That dress is cute! Please tell me you’re gonna try that on and getting it otherwise I’m gonna snatch that from you.” Naura never thought that this heather gray knit jacket would would exactly fit her wardrobe but now that she spotted that dress, she could actually see herself wearing the outfit. “Knitting clothes is super old school,” she commented as she perused through the racks for some spring skirts. “What’s a young gal like you doing this for a living?”
