that's fantastic to hear! things here have been pretty well so far too, can't really complain about anything as the people i'm rooming with are quite alright and i haven't had one single issue come around which i'm thankful for. the cuisine is always top notch so you can't go wrong with that at all. of course i'll take you, i'd be a fool to pass up such good company. look at you, congrats on getting some decent people. i've got drew starkey and rudy pankow so i can't complain either.

grant! things have been solid, everything was smooth sailing, no complaints. marseille’s been treating me well so far. how about you? i hope you had a fun time thus far? no huge plans, just soaking up as much of marseille’s charm as possible. i told someone about exploring the old port, then indulging in some local cuisine, and maybe even taking a boat tour to check out the calanques. and can't forget about just chilling with good company, like yourself, if you take me. i’m with dua and andrew garfield. can’t complain, they’re both pretty cool. what about you?

damn straight our room is the best, you now i almost feel bad for those who got stuck with someone they're not fond of but at the same time i could care less. i've got the best roomies and i'm not trading them for anyone. i think my lack of complaining and lack of asking for another room speaks my thoughts loud and clear buddy. but nahh you two are awesome though madelyn did give me a friendly warning so if she shows up randomly it's cause i called her to save me from the chaos.

roomies are top-notch, couldn’t ask for a better crew. you, me, and rudy? can't get better than that. everyone else, i’m sorry, but our room is the best one. i’ll make sure to say yes cause i definitely don’t want to deal with rudy’s waterworks or your heartbreak. what do you think of us?

something about being here does bring a sense of ease and i thin it will be a good trip all around honestly. though congrats on getting your girl as one of your roommates.... though do i dare ask who you got paired with as your other one? has any yelling happened and i don't mean the good kind of yelling either. so far so good on my end, it's been pretty decent.

2024 is proving to be a year of things i was not expecting, including waking up in france for the next two weeks. there's something about french air just makes you happier, are you feeling the same way? feel like i'm supposed to be in an awkward situations based on somehow we always end up roomed with someone that we're not supposed to be roomed with but i don't have a clue this time. given romee is my partner now so how about your end? any dramatics or issues arise yet or are you sliding into your time in france unscathed? @grntgstin

[grntgstin]

do you know how many times i've heard that, and how many times in the past we've been asked to do it live just because? also how many times i've been told that i had the most sexual tension with everyone on that show even though my character was gay? hey i'm not going to complain, i'm glad you enjoyed it because it really was a work of art when we made it.

this isn't related to france or this trip or anything but since you're here, i feel like i can't leave this unsaid any longer. your version of 'smooth criminal' has been top in my rotation for years and it's never changing. there's a small chance that it might even be coming from my room if the wine hits good enough which i mean, we're in france - hello? there's no way it won't be hitting in the best way possible. @grntgstin

at least i'm getting an honest answer here. i can't complain about that bit now can i? they haven't been so bad yet, they're both pretty great guys if i'm being honest. you've got a pretty awesome cast of co-workers. but 100% i'll be calling you and getting you to come be my knight in shining armour, plus i think you'd make a pretty badass knight. i might just call you so i can have you around.

Rudy and Drew? Oh wow, you're in for a hell of a time. A scale of 1-10 doesn't do them justice. You need to be on high alert, so at least an 11. They're a lot of fun to be around, but yeah, they'll drive you crazy. If you have any luck, they'll probably spend 99% of their time outside anyway so don't panic too much just yet. If you need rescuing, call me and I'll be there as your knight in shining armour.

[grntgstin]

that's mostly because it's hard to say in one spot when there's so much to see and do. but good i'm glad there's someone taking care of you. honestly if you've got niall at your side and he's not letting you wander off then there shouldn't need to be a tracking accessory for you. i doubt he's stressed, probably just cautious and doesn't want his girl being taken.

i'm here in france just like you, though i haven’t seen you around yet. offended, by the way. you're not the only one thinking i should get some sort of gps tracking necklace after coachella. if it makes you feel any better, i’m with niall right now and he knows not to let me out of his sight. pretty sure he’s a bit stressed because of it since i tend to wander off.

[grntgstin]

okay you know them better than i do so i need an inside take on this. on a scale of 1-10 how cautious should i be since i'm sharing a room with drew and rudy? you work with both of them all the time and i need the inside tips here. also if rescuing is needed can i call on you to save me from the torture? @madelynscllne

[grntgstin]

barbabra, where have you vanished off too lately? i don't know if we should get a bracelet with an airpod or something in it. please tell me that you've at least been with someone we all know and trust before coming here? @barbellos

[grntgstin]

callum my man, how have things been? was getting here alright? having a good time so far? how's life treating you and what are your big plans while being here in marseille? who did you get stuck with for roomies? @crturner

[grntgstin]

drew buddy! how are things? are you happy with your roommates? you better say yes because if you don't i think you might break rudy's heart and i wont be able to deal with his crying.... also you can't break my heart either if you say no. @andrewstarkey

[grntgstin]

i didn't know if you were able to make it on this trip or not... i'm surprised you're not nose deep in another project or something right now. how are you? @mciamitchell

[grntgstin]

hey anytime, anytime. it's what friends are for right? i've been good, just living it up on broadway at the moment. what about you, man?

Grant! Thank you for the warm welcome, man. How've you been?

[grntgstin]

there's nothing wrong with looking at it like a parent, you want what's best for them and you want to protect them from any possible hurt. it's understandable! ahh you know just keeping busy with work and all that fun stuff.

and anyone can respect that but when's the time come where you just have to let her go off and do it? she can't grow if she doesn't come across mistakes right? nice to meet you man, i'm grant.

[grntgstin]

but of course, how could you not be missed? welcome back to the states side, brother!

Finally back in the states for a bit. How've ya been? Miss me? @glamourstarters

[grntgstin]

and anyone can respect that but when's the time come where you just have to let her go off and do it? she can't grow if she doesn't come across mistakes right? nice to meet you man, i'm grant.

As someone who did that same I just worry that she will not get to were she wants if she drops out is all. As her father I worry. Anyways, I'm Justin.

[grntgstin]

well i can't say dropping out is an entirely good thing but nothing wrong with going down the acting path. as someone who did the college thing and still does the acting thing i recommend that if she's really interested in the acting route to see if she can transfer over to a school for the arts and explore it more and see if it really feels right for her, plus you can let her know that having a backup degree is always useful especially when you don't land the roles you want.

So, today my daughter and I were hanging out and had lunch. She was telling me how much she was enjoying college but there was one thing she wanted to do and that was drop out and become an actress.. I am not sure how to feel about that. Like what would you do if that was your daughter? Anyways, How was your day? @glamourstarters

[grntgstin]

everyone is bitter about it! i don't know one person that was happy about it because he had so much potential. what? really? that's not cool, you guys need to get together and have dinner or something soon. go on a vacation together or something. your next project better protect your ass and not kill you off.

i'm still bitter about them killing me off. i hardly get to see my stranger things mates anymore, and when I do, it's usually just for a brief moment before we go off to continue with our own lives. my character had so much more development to undergo.
