Summary
Jim and Len meet in a Tokyo hotel, where Dr McCoy is filming a whiskey commercial, trying to improve his image so he can maybe restart his television career back home. Jim is on a trip with his photographer boyfriend, who seems more interested in his clients than in Jim. Both are lost in an unusual setting, with only each other to try to work through where their lives are heading.
An AU based on the film Lost In Translation, still one of my favourites. I've used some similar scenes, some dialogue, some bits I've switched around - you don't really need to have seen the film to read this :)
"Whiskey commercial," Len murmured.
"You don't seem too happy about it," Jim pointed out.
Len shook his head. "Well, it's not bourbon, unfortunately. I can't even-" He glanced sidelong at Jim, looking around them both before lowering his voice. "Look into camera - with intensity," he said in a terrible accent. "That's it - that's all they've got. I'm a doctor Jim, not a damn movie star. I don't know how they want me to drink the damn stuff." He sighed heavily. "It's not even real alcohol, apple juice or some crap," he muttered finally.
Jim watched him and tried not to laugh, frowning sympathetically.Series
