Larry wasn’t in the first lot of scenes that morning so while the others went off to make up and costume and in Ben’s case to apologise, Larry opened up his ipad. Time to tweet....
Jim had sworn to himself that he would stick to Larry like glue but that was difficult when he was needed for sketches and Larry wasn’t. Anyway Larry seemed fine, tapping away at his ipad and grinning manically to himself like always.
Once or twice Jim had wandered over between takes and Larry had chatted to him happily, seemingly his normal self. All did seem genuinely fine.
Pleased Jim decided that he would take a few photos, the fans loved the behind the scenes photos and tweets. Strange, he seemed to have a lot of missed calls, oh well he’d look at those in a minute. He snapped Mat as DI Bones and then opened up his twitter.
Hmmmmm, he did seem to have a lot of tweets today even for him, a lot LOT of tweets.....he began to scroll down
“@lazabotron,@ realjimhowick, hey Jim, is it true your hugs are magic?”
Oh god no, this cannot be happening thought Jim as he scrolled down and down
“ @lazabotron,@realmatbaynton@benwillbond, @realjimhowick Mat and Ben!!! knew it was love!!”
“@lazabotron,@ realjim howick’@realmatbaynton@benwillbond baybond is realz”
“@lazabotron,@ realjimhowick magic hugs for everyone!!”
“@lazabotron,@ realjimhowick I wanna jimothy hug!”
And so on and so on...
Oh shit, Jim put his head in his hands, what was Larry thinking??? He’d clearly broadcast the whole magic hug thing on twitter along with Mat and Ben’s relationship which was also strictly private. What was he going to do? He needed to think.
Looking around, he saw that one of the dressing rooms was empty and he slipped inside, his mind reeling. Fuck, fuck he thought as the gravity of the situation dawned on him. Once people knew he could do magic hugs there would be no safe place, medical people would try and experiment on him to find out why, psychologists would try to ascertain if it was some kind of mass hysteria effect, people everywhere would want him just to make their lives better, charities would want him to go around the world hugging the starving poor. He felt himself begin to panic, his heart pounding as the consequences began to sink in.
And god knows what Ben would say when he saw the tweets about him and Mat. He liked to keep his private life private and Larry had just put it all over the internet.
