Back at the Plumbob Studios…

The last scene of the Tournament of Honor filming is over. The staff is still applauding; Fabian and Aoi don’t seem impressed.

The Studies however…
“That’s a wrap! Allan has finished all his scenes. The crew is shutting down and the footage is being sent to editing”.

Allan can’t wait to hear Director Sherrill’s opinion and immediately breaks the fourth wall:
Allan: So? How was I?

Director Sherrill: You were magnificent, Allan, worthy of a Starlight Accolade!

Allan: Ahem, I know, I know, I just needed corroboration.
Director Sherrill: Well, there you go; you’re the best, honey. Now go get some rest, I think you could use it.

Allan takes his last breath to fully step out of his character, King Richard the Beautiful.

Aoi doesn’t even look at him and literally flees the scene.

Fabian stays there but avoids coming close.

He had never ignored an after shoot like that before, he would always join Allan at the end, but this time he just ignored him.

Allan: This is weird. Fab is always the first to congratulate me, usually with a warm hug, but today he just doesn’t seem here.

Yep. Something is definitely off, but Allan keeps his face and walks past him. Sure Fabian will follow him to the dressing room like he always does…

Surprise, as he walked away, Fabian didn’t even move from his spot; Allan tries not to panic and keeps as calm as he can.

Allan: Easy, Wilson. He’s just upset about your silly three-way date idea, which really was a super dumb thing to do, but what’s done is done. He’ll come around eventually.

Upon arriving to his dressing room, there’s still no sign of Fabian.
Allan: This is definitely not good, but I’ll figure it out later, right now I need to take off this stupid costume and go get a drink…
