Mike… What the fuck?
You looked at several movies. "Um, Mike, is that a Godzilla film? In addition to like… lots of other Japanese Films?"
"Yes." He replied simply.
"How?" You asked.
"I'm very persuasive." He replied.
"But… but." you gawked.
"Sometimes you need to speak their language." He said.
"I do speak Japanese." You replied.
"Not what I'm talking about Bruce." He replied.

-[X]Choosing My Religion: You want to ask Carrie if she would convert to Catholicism. You only ask so that you can begin the process. DC: ??? Rolled:D100 => 85
You and Carrie met with the Bishop of LA, and it was a rather… quiet, dare you to say near mute affair. The three of you didn't talk that much, save for one simple question that had to be asked.
"This isn't a publicity stunt?" The Bishop was rather serious about the question, and it was one that warranted being asked. After all, Hollywood was always full of gossip and well… Faux everything. What is to say that Carrie wasn't doing it for clout or media attention?
That was his worry, especially with the possibility that could damage his reputation, and that of the Church.
But Carrie only told him. "It's not, I can assure you of that."
It was, a little dramatic, but that was entirely good enough for the Bishop. Then he looked to you. "Bruce, I hope you realize that this will be a task that both of you must take part in."
"I have no doubt in that." You replied as you bowed your head slightly. "Nothing in life would be worth it if it's not difficult."
Reward: Carrie and you begin a long road to see Carrie convert.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-[X]How I met Your Mother: You were waiting as Carrie walked down the Isle. This would be a fairytale, and that was never going to be any doubt. DC: 0 Rolled:D100 => 82
It was merely a dream, there was something that you could tell, because you didn't really have any place to say it. Shimmering voices shadows and a cathedral.
It was so slow, as you waited, and you were quickly seeing Carrie walk forward.
You wanted to say the words. To say anything.
And yet you awoke and only looked at her.
She was awake as well, and the mattress was still uncomfortable, as you both sat up. "Couldn't sleep?" She asked she placed a caring hand on your arm.
"Yeah." you nodded before you held her hand. "Carrie, I…"
You were quiet, petrified with fear and something more. You didn't know if you could even say the words.
"Yes." She said. "lets go back to bed."
Oh.
Reward: Carrie has agreed to marry you. In a very… nonchalant way.
Honestly, you should have seen that coming.
You both wanted this.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-[X]Making a Home: You Look at the Plans that Carrie Has. You were happy that she was taking such an interest. Now you were going to have a home. DC: 10 Rolled:D100 => 47
To think that it took less than a week to fully furnish the mansion with new furniture and set it all up for a truly… wonderful experience.
Well, that and it was honestly nice to have a bed instead of a mattress on the floor.
Reward: You have fully furnished the house.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-[X]And Making a Family: You look at Ginger and Natalie and sighed. How the hell were you going to make those two live together? DC: 20 Rolled:D100 => 34
You didn't think you really had it in you, but you found a simple way to get those two to live together.
It was really simple. Just let them figure it out. Sure it took quite a bit of time for them to get used to each other, but the giant dog and tiny kitty were… well…
They took to each other like a dog and a cat that had known each other their entire lives. Sure Natalie was rather adamant to put up boundaries that Ginger ignored, but they seemed to respect each other.
And they realized pretty quickly that you were in charge, and while Ginger didn't listen to you that much, Natalie did. Which meant that Ginger did too.
All and all, it was nice to have some peace, when Chaos seemed to be the order of the day…
Reward: The family now knows how to live together… for the most part.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-[X]Action Directing: It seems the town has been talking about how much of a beast you are at just being a stunt person. In fact, they knew you were a student of Bruce Lee. And they think you know how to stage and block a fight? Maybe you can DC? ??? Rolled:D100 => 61
To think all it took was being snubbed by the Emmys to see some… work. It was mostly just some minor fight scenes on one of the shows that NBC was doing, you didn't know the name, but frankly, you were appalled when you first got there.
Everyone was not intense enough, they were slow and lumbering, not even trying to sell the fight.
Basically not doing their jobs. So you took it upon yourself to whip them into shape.
And it was fun too. Seeing the stunt people that were wanting to do awesome things, and those that were not even trying, and seeing them fail always made you feel better.
And by the time it was over, it was darn good.
Reward: You have directed a fight scene for some NBC show you don't know the name of.
But people are talking about you again… and taking you seriously as an action director.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-[X] Do auditions(Movies and TV Shows): You are going to go to some of the casting calls that are in the place where you can find work in. DC: 20(Possibility of only getting a commercial or TV show job, or extra work in a low-budget film) Rolled:D100 => 42+10=52
Well now… It seems that there is something interesting on your Radar.
Heh, get it.
Well, anyway, It seems that Brooks needs you back in as a Guest star for the Mary Tyler Moore show. And he needs you now. Said he would owe you a favor.
It's going to be okay for that.
Oh, and he also said that he would pay you 50,000 dollars.
What a steal for him.
Reward: You are a guest Staring on the Mary Tyler Moore show next month.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-[X] Call your parents: You need to call mom and dad, and see how they are doing. DC: 10 (You call your parents and see what they are doing) Rolled:D100 => 81
"When is the Wedding?" It was your dad's turn to catch you off guard.
"What?" You asked, not sure about what the hell was going on.
"Debbie told us that you asked for permission," he replied as you heard the patrons from the bar cheer for you. "Quite down you bastards."
He then spoke to you. "Well, tell us?"
"Soon." You replied. "We both kinda want to wait until it's nice and legal."
"Good." He replied. "And Bruce."
"Yeah, Dad."
"I'm proud of you." He replied. "Though a bit disappointed you didn't wait… but in saying that, I'm glad you found the right woman."
"Thanks, dad."
He then laughed. "You better be careful though, your mother might raise hell and try to make sure the bouquet goes to someone she wants to see married."
You paled. "Thanks for the heads up."
Reward: You talk to your dad about what is to come.
------------------------------------------------------------
The Emmy Backlash:D100 => 80
???:D100 => 93
???:D100 => 100
You didn't think that half of everyone working in TV would stand up for you, and call out the Emmys for their bullshit.
You also didn't expect the Union to get involved.
But something told you that since the Guild got involved, there would be changes…
Or you were in deep trouble.
