Wait I haven't heard this story. Alfred did what after filming Chocolat?
Alfred said in an interview that on the last day of shooting Chocolat, they did the chocolate gorging scene (spoilers). They did just 3 takes of it but still, he'd eaten about 40 pounds of chocolate (which he was quite proud of).
The next day he practically woke up with what felt like the worst hangover of all time, where he could barely lift up his head and get out of bed and he wasn't able to go out as he'd originally planned.

Star Student X Delinquent Yuri Romance Manga 'I Can't Say No to the Lonely Girl' Licensed in English
On Saturday, Kodansha USA announced at its Anime Expo 2023 panel that it has licensed Kashikaze's I Can't Say No to the Lonely Girl (Lonely Girl ni Sakaraenai) for English publication. The first volume of the school romance Yuri manga will be released in the spring of 2024.
I Can't Say No to the Lonely Girl follows Ayaka Sakurai, a star student gifted in both academics and athletics. However, she gets nervous about exams, so has to settle for a lesser high school than she intended.
When her homeroom teacher recognizes Ayaka's struggle, she offers her a recommendation letter that could get her into any school of her choice, on one condition. She has to convince the delinquent girl, Sora Honda, to come to school. Thus the goody-goody Sakurai is thrust into a web of blackmail that might just lead to romance!
I Can't Say No to the Lonely Girl was serialized in Comic Yuri Hime from 2019 until its conclusion in October 2022. Ichijinsha publishes six collected volumes of the manga in Japanese.
The manga received positive reviews from audiences and critics. Erica Friedman awarded the first Japanese volume an 8/10 score on Okazu, and the series won 12th place overall in Yuri Navi's fifth Yuri Manga Sousenkyo in 2021.
Kashikaze is a Japanese Yuri artist. She has contributed to multiple Yuri anthologies, including Canelé: Soeur, Shibuya Gyaru, and Chocolat: Shkaijin Yuri Anthology. She also released a side story doujinshi focusing on the side characters from I Can't Say No to the Lonely Girl.
Look forward to the release of the first volume of I Can't Say No to the Lonely Girl in the Spring of 2024.

☏ SNOOZING ON THE JOB, cl16 voicemail blurb (f)
☏ MOONY’S VOICEMAIL — a series in which formula one drivers send a voicemail to the reader. what about? prompts may vary. (maybe fluff or smut, idk)
voicemail summary: charles fell asleep watching his kids, so his eldest boys hervé and jules reported to their maman through a voicemail.
content warning: nameless mom!reader (maman), fluff, translated french dialogues, dad!charles x ocs (hervé and jules + mentioned baby pj), nosy kids but they’re cute so they’re valid, humour
note: i used the same kids from of long lines and names haha sorry— enjoy xx
a - n masterlist
o - z masterlist
somewhere in the background, the film toy story 3 was playing.
the microphone neared a soft breathing as a small voice spoke, “maman? hallo- maman? ‘s hervé—“
“oh herb, pourquoi est-ce que tu touches le téléphone de da?” why are you touching da’s phone, another voice rung out on the side. “‘member? no touching phone!”
“wanna say hi to maman! wanna say hi, jules?” the toddler, now identified as hervé, asked his twin brother jules.
“nah uh,” jules replied with a slight reluctance on his tone, “da va se fâcher.” da will get upset.
“hm, d'accord,” hervé hummed before speaking directly to the phone, “maman— da ‘s sleeping with sacha— look—“
the phone moved around and neared a soft breathing— assuming that it was coming from a baby — before a loud snoring erupted in the voicemail.
then the snoring had faded as hervé spoke, “da has his mouth open like this—“ hervé let out an airplane-like sound before his brother jules giggled alongside him. “da said we watch toy story together but da’s sleepin’!”
“da also said we nap,” jules piped up on the side, “but he and pj are napping. da is sooo sleepy, maman!”
hervé giggled hysterically, surprisingly he hadn’t woken his father up from his laughter as hervé continued, “da a dit que nous aurons de la crème glacée aujourd'hui - je pense que je vais prendre du chocolat!” da said that we will get ice cream today. i think i will get chocolate!
“ooh! good ice cream, h!” jules let out a gasp, “i think i will get uh… mango!”
“mango? bleh,” hervé stuck out his tongue. “i no like mango!”
“ooh- i think we should end call, herb,” jules told his twin, “maman’s no answer. stop call.”
“okay, bye maman~” hervé dragged his word out as he greeted the phone.
“bye byeeeee~” jules’ voice got higher.
“byeeee mamaaaaan— je t’aimeeee—“ hervé paused and let out an ‘oof’ before footsteps appeared in the background of the voicemail. “da— da…”
a deeper voice spoke hoarsely as charles stirred awake, baby pj still sounded asleep on the driver’s chest as charles asked, “mmgh— hervé? why are you not napping?”
“da, turn this off?” there was a long pause.
charles, still half-asleep, said, “hervé, jules— did you call maman?”
“yes— we say hi, da,” hervé and jules reasoned.
“oh mon dieu,” charles groaned quietly, “boys, we do not call maman when she’s worki—“
