Angus MacLeod was sitting in a corner looking like he could colonize me any day! I was in a tuxedo dress because I wanted to look powerful but also cute and harmless. Commission-able but make it chic. I wanted to say You can trust me to get the job done but also remember I'm in no way threatening to your masculinity! I was looking proper, innit, and I had prepped for bagging this commission, we all know this yeah?
Henry Cavill as Angus MacLeod
So tell me how then fam, tell me how I walked to the table all confident and lush, ready to sign the heck out of some contracts and manz his Lordship stands up to greet me with a wide smile on his face and sitting there yeah? Sitting there at the fucking nook of the table is my boss! My fucking boss! He was supposed to be in America chasing after them babes in California or something yet here he was, looking like Whitlam's answer to the question what if Heath Ledger had been in 21 jump street instead of Johnny Depp. No one asked that question fam! Allow it!
Matthew Nozska as Lucas Roland, Earl of Whitlam
"This is her. Funke! Glad you could make it. I already ordered breakfast for us, I hope you don't mind." Angus MacLeod says reaching his hand to greet me before I can squalay innit
I'm so shook I actually reach for his hand, so now I'm stuck here amen't I! Fucking hell!
How do you know that you're cursed?
No seriously... I would like to find out if I'm cursed, if there's some afrosinema uncle or aunty somewhere back in Ikorodu city, Nigeria who hated my mother so much she hexed me. Me! an innocent me! Ok, fine, so maybe I wasn't so innocent, but that was no reason for me to end up having to go through these hurdles!
"Glad you could join us, Funke. Angus was just telling me about you." My boss says to my side as I try and figure out how to play it
To make it worse it's like them ones in the kitchen were waiting for me. They're already placing breakfast on the table! Was I late to this meeting blud?
