Addy was silently going through her emails. She tried to keep on top of everything that was going on in life. She didn't feel right if it wasn't just a little bit hectic. She was just starting to relax into her routine. She had even managed to set a time for studying, even if the summer was upon them. She knew that chemistry was probably going kick her in ass the up coming school year. As much as she liked her dressing room it felt kind of weird, so she was sitting in her chair, watching a few of the extra wrap up out of the corner of her eyes.

Let it be said that Addy was a genuinely friendly person. Yes her friendship was conditional, yes she had the habit of using people, but her friendliness wasn't false. For every hundred people she met there was one person who made her ears twitch with annoyance. Her blood boiled at the mere mention of anything Jett and she really hoped she hadn't saw him. Only she did, by the donuts...doing Satan knows what. Why did the earth hate her, why did she have to go through shit like this. She put on her best fake smile when they locked eyes. Perhaps he would keel over and die...she doubted it.

No, No. She would not stoop to his level. She had done an amazing job of making herself a very friendly and adorable young lady. She would not let him ruin that, she would not be caught being rude. Addy Augustine wasn't known for rudeness, this was a game and she was going to win. As well as get him sent to mars because fuck being on the same planet as him.

Jett had been laughing with a few of the stage hands. He'd told some (likely inappropriate) joke to them, which had them in an absolute fit. When he spotted Addy, at first he looked at her, then Jett's expression jumped to genuine interest, and he made his way over. Casual, hands in his pocket, and a shit-eating grin on his face. Oh, her hatred was hardly lost on him. He got it.

"Hey there, Ms. Augustine. What an absolute pleasure it is to make your acquaintance finally. I hear so much about you from everyone else." He held out his hand for a shake. Yes, he would play this game. Jett was nothing if not professional!

Truthfully, Jett hadn't known Addy worked here until he'd already started, but that only made things better. He'd originally joined LuxTV as a method of annoying his friend, Toby.

Addy was very good at acting...normally. She just had no idea how to deal with such hatred. She was normally so okay with everyone. Hell even Toby didn't piss her off as much as he should. She quickly shook his hand, setting her tablet down as to give him her attention.

"Please call me Addy. I hope it was good things you heard?" She said smiling and laying on her act so thick. Why did he need to be here. "I hope you're finding everything well, its pretty big."

She hoped he would get lost, but that was a bad thing. No she couldn't say that, she had to say something else. "So are you gonna be on the show?"

"Mostly good things, yes," Jett said. He planted the seed of insecurity before smiling radiantly at her. Now, Jett, he was a good actor, and he couldn't name a time he'd positively ever hated someone enough to care about their motivations or where they were. It was all a game to him, this world.

"Of course, Addy, my apologies. And yes, it's all easy enough to navigate, even if it weren't, I have inside contacts." His smile stretched a little and only then, did Jett release her hand. "Yeah, I'll be working on this set and a few others." If Jett were honest, the stagehand position interested him more than any form of acting did, but whatever.

It wasn't long after that Jett bid her good day and went back to the small group of people he'd been joking with previously. He was true to his word that Addy would be seeing more of him because he seemed to appear anywhere she was for the next few days. Rarely did he speak to her, but he often flashed her a quick smile.

Addy tilted her head, mostly good was way better than mostly bad. Addy understood that not everyone was going to like her, she was only semi okay with that. Of course that made her work harder to win them over...or atleast make them aware of her presense. She didn't give any indcation that his words bothered her. They didn't bother her as much as his exsistence did, all things considering...HE was the thing that pissed her off the most. She knew it was irrational, he hadn't really done anything entirely wrong...but she just couldn't get over it. She had fun, in the funhouse ironically until she couldn't find Shay...she didn't like the feeling of losing someone so close to her...or at least possibly. No Jett was on her No Friend list...but she couldn't show that...She befriended everyone so she would befriend him until her show was cancelled, finished or got kicked out. She really hoped it was the latter that happened.
 
She acted like she was put off by the handshake, she was a normally touchy feely person. She hugged the stagehands, the crew and baked them cookies...well technically...someone else baked them. She SHARED her food with the people around her and was always poliete to everyone. Even when people were having a bad day and didn't really want to deal with people, Addy was always there to cheer them up. She was a sweetheart and not even the burning annoyance she felt for Jett was going to change that. She waved a goodbye to him and went to go start filiming her focusing going to the moment and scene she was doing. She couldn't wait to be finished with the current seasons filming.
 
Over the next couple of days Addy's will power and stubborness was tested way beyong it's limits. She had spent personal time in her dressing room, away from places with Jett. She didn't let that damper her mood, instead she constructed a game plan. That game plan was to Befriend Jett, because she was going to have to his stupid face until she managed to get him Exiled. Which was why on friday she sought him out, basket of muffins in hand. "HEY JETT!!" she said skipping up to him, when he was alone.

Catching Jett alone was hard. That was something he had done deliberately. The times he was alone would be the times Addy would have to travel a good distance away from everyone else. Come into the snakes den, so to speak. He did this naturally, rather than waiting in spooky, dark halls or anything suspicious. The time Addy finally approached him, he was drinking a small cup of water by a deserted water cooler. Jett smiled at her, a look not quite warm enough to reach his eyes, but not cold enough to be cause for alarm, either.

"Hello, Addy. What brings you all the way over here on your lonesome? I'd think it was hard for you to get away from all your adoring fans." The way he said this was almost like an insult. It felt like there should have been an insult in there somewhere, but there was nothing directly (or indirectly) provoking about what he said.

His eyes moved down her body slowly until they reached the basket. Jett pursed his lips, seeming like he might laugh. "You make those yourself? I didn't think you baked. Talk about brains and beauty." He blew out a stream of air, as it aghast by this development. "Some people have all the luck. Now, what can I do for you, doll?"

Addy tiled her head to the side her tail moving back and forth. "Yes I made these, I rarely have time to bake these days. However yesterday my schedule was clear and I thought I make muffins for all the people who work hard behind the scenes." She smiled innocently up at Jett, made sure to throw in a few eyelash batts. She could do this, she could pretend. She just had to imagine that he had something that she wanted. Yes that would be a lot easier.

She held the basket towards him and motion for him to take it. "I didnt see you around so i thought I'd bring you some. To show my appreciation, I've been so busy I haven't had time to properly befriend you" god she disnt know what she tortured herself like this. This would be the ultimate test of her willpower. Addy was not a quitter she didnt give on anything. This was only temporary she told herself.

Jett wanted to scoff at all the lovely eyelash batting. All the cute looks and femininity. He held back a sneer; it was all a little too frilly for him. Why was she even over here, annoying him? Had Addy thought Jett had come to work here for her? Was she so self-centered? Well, the Skinwalker hated turning his back on a game.

He took the basket. "Awe, well ain't that just the sweetest thing. Guess I'll have to return the favor somehow, huh?" Jett feigned thoughtfulness, rubbing his jaw with his free hand. "I don't suppose you'd be willing to give me a list of some sort?"
