Swimmer to Superstar
I died in an accident and met a so-called ROB who turned out to be Poseidon. He sent me to Earth in 1961 with nerfed water powers and erased my memories until I turned 18.- 2.6 K • May 19, '25

STS Ch-81
The movie began with Noah Hunter waking up in bed with a start. He didn't seem to be wearing anything, but a sheet covered him from the waist down. He rubbed his face tiredly before looking at the other side of the bed, where an equally naked redhead was lying on her stomach. Only her back was visible, and her lower half was similarly covered by a sheet. “Shit!” he cursed out loud, and then the movie went into a flashback. “Bill!” one of Noah's friends called out to the protagonist and…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-80
“Oi! Wanker! I need those lights o’er here!” A man came rushing over with the lights toward the first AD, who was coordinating the crew on set. “Did he just call a crew member a wanker?” Tom asked in bewilderment. I shrugged. “Could be his nickname or something. I really don't wanna ask.” Tom laughed and shook his head. We admired the view of Northern England spread out before us. Away from the bustling environment of a big city like London, this was the real deal. Sure, the…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-79
The moment I saw her, I knew who she was. She was a future Oscar winner and one of the greatest British actresses of her generation. Not to mention a brilliant writer and a very funny comedienne. Emma Thompson. “I’m so sorry for being late,” she apologized. “I mixed up the timing for this audition with another one.” “Unfortunately for you, we’re done here for today,” John said sternly. “You can come back tomorrow...” “John,” I interrupted before he could finish,…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-78
I woke up after what felt like a very long, deep sleep. Yesterday’s run-in with a future superstar had left me reeling. Would he even become a superstar now that I had taken for myself? Even though I was exhausted, my brain was working overtime, thinking about Tom Cruise and the implications of taking one of his iconic roles. Should I feel some sort of guilt for taking the role away from him? I didn’t. Every film I’d done until now, whether it was or , had originally gone to someone else. By…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-76 & 77
“Do you think he’ll get it right this time?” Al Pacino just shrugged, for he had no answer to that question. “This is the toughest scene for his character, so it’ll take time before he fully gets there. We just need some patience, and I’m sure he’ll nail it in a few more takes.” Robert Zemeckis nodded in agreement and walked back behind the camera. As much as Al preferred working with a director like Bob, who was open-minded enough to accept suggestions, it was sometimes tiring to…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-75
“Thank you for coming here to see me,” I said, shaking hands with the man in front of me. John Landis gave me a nod. “It’s okay. I’ll do anything for my film. It’s my baby.” There was something in the way he said it that made me feel a little uncomfortable in his presence. Nonetheless, I indicated for him to take a seat on the couch opposite me. “So,” I began after a few moments of silence, “Why do I have a feeling that you came here not just to discuss the script with…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-74
“Hey, is it okay if I invite Silvie over?” I asked, loosening my tie as Al and I walked inside the house. He opened the fridge and grabbed a bottle of beer. “Which one is she?” I grinned. “She’s the one with the brown hair… and that rack.” I motioned at my pecs to indicate the most distinguishing feature of hers. Al gave me a judging look for all of two seconds before shaking his head. “No.” “What do you mean, no?” I asked, my demeanor shifting slightly from happy to…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-73
“I certainly didn’t expect to be reshooting scenes for this movie right now, especially after you’ve sold it,” Julie commented idly as the crew around us finished preparing for the reshoots. The crew this time was a professional one, the same one that would be shooting in just a few days. As much as I wanted to shoot this myself and use the Harvard student crew, I couldn’t. I simply didn’t have the time to spare. As good as the film had turned out, it had taken numerous mistakes and retakes…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

STS Ch-72
“If there’s one thing I hope you take away from today’s lesson, it’s that there are no painless solutions in this world, only trade-offs. Anyone who tells you otherwise is either campaigning for elections… or hasn’t done the assigned reading, as you’re about to do this weekend.” I couldn’t stop the amused snort that escaped me, and half the students were in the same boat. It helped that our professor was one of the coolest on campus. “See you all next week.” Everyone seemed…- 231.0 K • Ongoing
