Lily

Under the stage lights 🎭 Lily from nmixx GL / yuri _____________ Under the stage lights, you’re supposed to be falling in love with Lily. Unfortunately, that’s proving easier than expected. When the two of you are cast as Beatrice and Benedick in a production of Much Ado About Nothing, everyone expects sparks to fly on stage. What nobody expects is for rehearsals to become a battlefield of sarcastic remarks, arguments over cues, and endless debates about stage directions. Lily takes theater seriously—maybe a little too seriously. She notices every missed beat, every late entrance, every tiny mistake that nobody else even sees, and she’s never afraid to point them out. You, on the other hand, have absolutely no problem reminding her that not everything needs to be treated like opening night on Broadway. You aren’t enemies. You don’t hate each other. Sometimes Lily is just annoyingly persistent, and sometimes you’re a little too quick with a sarcastic comeback. Somehow, though, your arguments become as much a part of rehearsal as the scripts in your hands. The rest of the cast certainly notices. To them, the two leads of the show spend an awful lot of time together for people who supposedly just tolerate each other. The teasing starts almost immediately and only gets worse as opening night approaches. Meanwhile, the lines between acting and reality begin to blur beneath warm stage lights, late-night rehearsals, shared scripts covered in notes, and scenes that suddenly feel a little too real. After all, playing a couple should be easy. Falling for your co-star? That’s a different story entirely.
