《Infinity || Dan Smith》Twenty-One.
Advertisement
A lot happened after the Brits. When they went back and filmed in Iceland, it became obvious that they was item just after roughly nine weeks of knowing each other. Dan's and Charlie's innocent friendship blossomed into a relationship, so it's not really a surprise for the crew members to see them being loved up after they wrap. To the new couple the relationship feels somewhat overdue but to other people it seems...rushed. Either way, the new couple are happy that the torture of pretending not to like each other 'in that way' is over.
And their on-screen romance is also getting praise from those who have watched the footage that they've filmed so far. 'You're the next big thing' Aubrey keeps telling them, again and again, after they wrap up every single night.
But this scene in particular is their hardest to date...
Dan, or in this case Liam, sits opposite Charlie who is portraying Lily. Neither of them say anything, despite being new romantics off set, on set they remain stern and serious. Both of them are in character and have been for about forty five minutes.
This is the scene where Liam confronts Lily, after everything they've been through. "I loved you." Liam whispers looking at Lily while she sits on the opposite end of the table with her arms crossed. She sits forwards on edge of her seat. This indicates that she isn't sure whether their meeting is a trap or not.
"And I still love you. It's why I'm here...even though you probably mind controlled every single person within a hundred mile radius." Liam shakes his head slightly while Lily leans forwards even more, placing both of her arms out in front of her on the desk.
"I don't control people for my own personal benefit. I do it to save them...save humanity...to save you."

Admittedly, Charlie wants to crack a laugh. She knows that the script is super cliché, but fanboys can't get enough of the tackiness. So Charlie thinks about her dead dog to weigh down that sudden happiness.
"Liam...what the hell do I need saving from?"
"Yourself."
Lily breaks down laughing as she narrows her eyes in disbelief. "Are you out of your mind? I'm me. I've always been me." But Liam shakes his head.
"You're a different person. Not the same person that I fell in love with. Lily, I've tried loving you. In Iceland we tried so hard to just be a normal couple, but we both know that you can't be normal. And it's tearing me apart, because I want to protect you and save you from the darkness of your mind....but I know I shouldn't. You're truly evil" Lily's eyes widen for a second before she looks away.
"Why do you bother still talking to me?" Liam, who is slugged back on his chair, shrugs back his shoulders. His eyes are glassy and he looks clearly depressed. It's his third and final change of personalities within the movie. He's gone from being a joker...to serious mode...to being depressed.
"I feel connected to you. It's weird...but before Iceland I could sleep and not think about you. But now I can't stop thinking about you...it's gotten stronger...this weird bond. Have you put a spell on me or something? Is being lucky your only power? Something is wrong. And I thought closure would help if I told you this to your face." He emotionally whispers.
"Did it help? The closure?" Liam shakes his head before burying his palm into his face.
Lily knows exactly what he is talking about.

"I don't know about this weird bond...thing. I haven't been feeling myself lately but I guess it's my bodies way of rebelling against my mind. I'm sorry about everything I've done or said to you. I think about you all the time and I know that the world doesn't deserve a man like you. But the world Liam...they treat us like dirt. The ones who aren't mutants or-or Avengers. They need to witness us."
"There are plenty of ways you can do that without using your abilities." But Lily shakes her head.
"Was Iceland some spectacle for you?" Dan almost laughs wanting her to say yes. But she doesn't say anything.
"Huh?"
"We're not talking about Iceland. We're talking about our abilities. How we shouldn't hide who we are. We can create an Avengers of our own! We can get married...be together forever like we always planned." Lily smiles at the last part while Liam emotionlessly looks at her. He looks tried and drained out, there's bags under his eyes and his skin is paler than usual.
"You won Lily." He whispers standing up.
"Go and kill the rest of world to prove that your the good guy. I'm done." Liam chokes on falling tears.
"Of what?" Lily looks confused.
"Of everything..."
That's when the crew bursts into a clapping frenzy as soon as they cut. Aubrey rushes to their sides while Dan and Charlie both are released to end this scene. "The intensity is insane right now." Aubrey jokes while Dan nods his head.
"That was the best you guys can do. You two are done for the day. Tomorrow we want to discuss the music element within this film, and of course the promotional photo shoots, and potential music videos. It's best if we do them now rather than later." Dan nods his head with a smile while Charlie awkwardly puts her arm around his skinny waist.
"Then next week we return to Iceland for a couple of weeks, okay?" This film has the highest budget of any Marvel movie. Which is a big deal for a film which only stars Dan, Charlie, and a couple of other minor characters. So Aubrey wants to spend the money on big things. Make the movie run smoothly with only state of the art cgi. She wants realism, and this superhero film is about realistic as it gets.
The filming in this movie isn't chronological. They've already filmed the middle chunk of the movie, but have yet to film the start or ending. Since they know that they'll have extra money they want to create several big budget music videos to promote the film, they then will need end and post credits scenes.
"So that's it for the day?" Charlie asks while Aubrey nods her head.
"Fuck yes." Dan then whispers in Charlie's ear while Aubrey walks back on set. directing where the other minor cast members do and say next.
