151 Lucas's designer and Primetime Emmy officially kick off

After wrapping up his brief role in an episode of "Modern Family," Lucas quickly hopped on a flight back to Northern Ireland to resume filming for "Game of Thrones." His character, Robb Stark, was slated to appear more significantly in the upcoming episodes. Despite Lucas's suggestions to align Robb Stark closer to his depiction in the books, his screen time in the first season remained limited. This meant Lucas didn't need to spend as much time on set compared to other cast members. Having already completed some scenes for the early episodes of season one in a two-week sprint, Lucas's return to the set was for filming the parts where Robb Stark would be more prominent.

Upon his arrival on set, Kit Harington was the first to greet him, followed by the main cast. Despite their demanding schedules, they were well-informed about Hollywood happenings and congratulated Lucas on his Primetime Emmy nomination for "Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series."

The filming process for "Game of Thrones" differed markedly from Lucas's previous projects. Unlike the more structured, episodic nature of television shows like "Modern Family," or the intimate, collaborative atmosphere of indie films, "Game of Thrones" presented a more sprawling, cinematic approach. Scenes were shot out of sequence, often based on location rather than chronological order, demanding a high level of adaptability and continuity awareness from the actors. This epic, ensemble-driven production required meticulous planning and coordination, with vast sets, complex storylines, and a diverse cast contributing to the immersive world-building unique to this series.

As the weeks flew by, with Lucas deeply immersed in the "Game of Thrones" filming, the Primetime Emmy Awards rapidly approached. Wrapping up his schedule on the series, Lucas returned to New York. There, he was set to meet with Vincent, his agent, who had arranged for him to collaborate with a designer from Gucci for his Emmy appearance.

Lucas, alongside Vincent, greeted the Gucci designer with warm smiles and handshakes.

Lucas and Vincent made their way to the hotel where their meeting with the Gucci designer was set. As they walked, Lucas glanced at Vincent, a hint of skepticism in his voice. "Are you sure about this? Do you really think this Gucci designer is the right choice for me?"

Vincent offered a reassuring smile. "Trust me, Lucas. I've made sure this designer is nothing like the last one we worked with. You won't be disappointed this time."

Lucas let out a chuckle, shaking off any lingering doubts as they approached the room where the designer awaited them.

Lucas and Vincent stepped into the lobby, where they spotted a man exuding an air of sophistication, unmistakably in his forties. Vincent led the way, guiding Lucas toward the Italian designer from Gucci. "Lucas, this is Feliciano Baresi," Vincent introduced, gesturing towards the distinguished gentleman.

"Mr. Baresi, it's an honor to meet you," Lucas extended his hand warmly, his nerves subtly hidden behind a polite smile.

"Ah, Mr. Lucas, the pleasure is mine," Feliciano responded, his handshake firm yet devoid of any real warmth, his demeanor professional but somewhat detached.

Lucas and Vincent exchanged quick glances, noting Feliciano's composed, almost indifferent attitude. It was a stark contrast to the outright disdain they'd experienced with the previous designer from Dolce & Gabbana. Nonetheless, it was clear Feliciano was here to do his job, already having a selection of outfits prepared for Lucas.

Lucas, taking a moment to collect his thoughts, looked at Feliciano with earnest anticipation. "Mr. Baresi, I've given it a lot of thought, especially considering the Emmys. I'm aiming for a look that's not overly attention-grabbing but still uniquely me—understated elegance, if you will."

After all, it was the Primetime Emmys, and Lucas admitted to himself that blending into the background wasn't exactly the goal. He wanted to be noticed, but in a manner that was true to his personal style.

Feliciano, intrigued by Lucas's approach, pondered his request. "A delicate balance, indeed," he mused. "Could you share more about your vision? Are there particular colors or materials you're drawn to?"

Lucas paused, searching for the right words. "I'm leaning towards darker tones, perhaps a deep blue or charcoal. I'm envisioning something sophisticated but not ostentatious. I believe such choices would resonate with my persona without overpowering it."

Nodding thoughtfully, Feliciano began to sketch. "Understood. How about a custom suit that combines sleek design with a hint of flair—How do you feel about a bespoke suit with a subtle pattern or a different kind of lapel to set it apart?"

Lucas's face lit up with a hopeful smile. "That sounds intriguing. I'm open to exploring different ideas before making a final decision. And I'm confident in your expertise, Mr. Baresi."

Feliciano, initially reserved, warmed up to Lucas as they discussed fashion preferences, revealing a shared excitement for the creative process.

"I'm eager to see what we can come up with together, Mr. Lucas," Feliciano expressed, his demeanor now entirely engaging, a smile playing on his lips.
