For the cast and crew of A Place For Us (@bjamesjr, @residentgoober, @butlergerry, @ijlaw, @mcjamesavoy), 

Bradley, I don’t think anyone else could have taken what was inside our heads and brought it to life as amazingly as you did - every single character was precisely how we’d envisioned them. Darren, your voice was exactly what this project needed and your contributions both to Keanu (who knew you could be scary?!) and the soundtrack helped to pull it all together. Gerry - you were the perfect leprechaun, but we all knew that already! Jen, you were made to be mermaid baby and don’t let anyone ever tell you otherwise! And last, but certainly not least, James - thank-you for being the voice of reason in all of it. No one else could have pulled Akil off the way you did. 

To show our appreciation, we wanted to pass along a few little treats in honor of you and tonight’s premiere. First, homemade rainbow cakes in a jar to remind you of the pot of gold you helped us find (we both quality tested them, and believe us, they are delicious!). Secondly, a unicorn flower arrangement and a bottle of Blazing Phoenix wine - to represent Harry and Blaise, who started this all - for you to enjoy

Thank you all, from the bottom of our hearts, for being a part of this journey with us and for helping us bring this crazy fantasy to life. You are all fucking magical. 

Lots of Love, 

Delta & Brie

Dear James [ @mcjamesavoy ] ,

I hope that this package arrived at least close to your birthday. I know that I might have procrastinated on it but we haven’t forgot your birthday. I’m really sad that you and Scarlett aren’t with us in Greece but I know you guys are busy doing the new parent thing with the beautiful little miss.  Bradley and I just wanted to wish you a very Happy Birthday.

Thank you for always being such a good friend to me through the years. You have always been like a big brother and will always think of you as such.  I thought you might appreciate a little touch of the trip and home.  I got a little tea kettle that will help add some class and charm to your tea sessions and a mug to drink it in. I also got you some sweets that you care share with Scarlett and Sterling.

Best wishes,

Anna (and Bradley) James

Scarlett & James [@manyshadesofscarlett, @mcjamesavoy],

I’m so happy for the two of you! You’re going to be welcoming a little girl into the world and Violet is going to be the luckiest girl in the world because she has the two of you as parents. With having a little girl comes all things cute and frilly — which I might have gone a little overboard with the shopping for clothes for the little angel, but I digress. Baby girl clothes are too cute not to resist and with the amount of times they end up needing to be changed throughout the day you can never go wrong with too many clothes.  And of course, you can never have enough diapers. The little princess has enough diapers to rule the kingdom now. She can also relax in this baby bean bag which has been a lifesaver for Amore and I.

Scarlett, I wish you an easy and fast labor and delivery. Hospitals are always cold and the socks they give you are so uncomfortable so I couldn’t resist these funny socks that are pretty damn comfortable and warm. Take care of yourself afterwards, alright? Remember that a happy mommy also equals a happy baby. 

James, I hope you’re prepared for the trouble that comes with raising a girl. You’re going to have to fight off all the boys wanting to get close to her because we already know she’s going to be absolutely perfect. I have no doubt that you’re going to know what to do but just in case of an emergency, I thought this Daddy Doody kit would save the day.

Congratulations, guys! I can’t wait to see little Violet.

Love, Stef & Darren.

Dear Scarlett and James, [ @manyshadesofscarlett @mcjamesavoy ]

Congratulations on your soon-to-be-arriving princess! I am so happy for you both, and Sterling, that your wonderful little family is going to expand even further. I’m so sorry I couldn’t be there to celebrate with you today.

I’m not the man with a plan for babies, but I know blankets and onesies are key. These two caught my eye, especially how soft the blanket was, and know that Violet only deserves the finest things in life.

Sleep for you both is also important, so I’m told. I thought maybe this (violet, there’s a theme) butterfly mobile would go nicely in her nursery and potentially serve as something to gaze at before summoning you for her bidding. The woman at the baby store also swore by this aquarium monitor - which has a remote you can turn off and on from your bedroom - and claimed her three kids wouldn’t sleep without it. I also thought it was pretty cute.

The Play-Doh set is actually for Sterling. Although I have no doubt he’ll be a fantastic big brother, I can’t imagine how much of a shift, for him, it’s going to be bringing a new baby into the house. I wanted to get him something that you can work on with him - letters and numbers - to give him some special time with his parents.

The red string is for Violet. It’s an old Romanian tradition when your baby is born that you have them wear a red string around their wrist to ward them from ill thoughts, health problems, general unpleasantness. They’re often kept by the parents after as a sign of gratefulness for their baby’s continued health and prosperity. 

I have no doubt Violet will be as amazing as her parents. So I’ll be expecting her to start making designs on taking over the world by pre-school. 

Congratulations again, both of you. And should you ever need a babysitter... I’ll give you the name of someone qualified.

Love,

Seb

Stana was elbow deep in a flowerbed when she heard the dim ringing of her front door bell. She was sweaty, covered in dirt and pretty sure a twig was sticking out of her hair. “Hmpf”, she mumbled to herself tried to find the part of her arm least covered in dirt to wipe some sweat of her brow.

“Coming!” She called. Instead of going back inside, she made her way around the house, arms held up high once she got to the fence. “Hey, sorry, over here!” Arms still up in the air, she stuck her head out over the fence to see an unfamiliar face. Well, not unfamiliar, but not one she had seen before around these parts.

“I know I look like a total mess right now but, uhm, can I help you?”

MERYL: Just passed a rerun of The Graham Norton Show on TV. Feeling like a failure for failing to kiss James when I had the chance. I’ll get him sooner or later, whether he likes it or not!

Biker babe, eh? Not sure if that name is kick-ass enough for a co-president but I’ll go with it for now. Hope you’re doing well, too bad I didn’t catch you. I am not sure if I can be seen with you not wearing the bandana ..... OK, I’ll give it a try. Biking again trumps badass bandanas. Though if you were it, I promise you a Croatian micro brew beer that will knock your socks off. Sooo, when are you free? We wrap filming in about a week and a half, so anything after that is fine. Oh and ... thanks. I am really glad you called.

slurred words (James)

“Ahh, James.” Bob took a long pull from his pint glass, smiling. “His ass is very… grab-able? Is that a word? It is now.” He stared down at the floor for a moment, slightly lolling forward, while onlookers glanced worriedly in his direction, no doubt concerned he was going to fall on his face. “James is like, the sensitive type, I think. I’d wear the pants in that relationship, definitely.” Chuckling, he lifted his head and brought his glass to his lips again. “I wonder… does he have a girlfriend? What are my chances of getting with him?” Then, he brought a hand to his mouth, looking somewhat surprised at his words. “Did I just say that out loud? No, no, no one heard that!” Then, he burst into a snickering fit.
