The Lunar Chronicles: The Fanmade Audio Drama Season 2
Ace for Carswell Thorne
As an experienced thief, Thorne is used to getting out of sticky situations using his good looks and charisma. His confidence often spills over into arrogance, much to the annoyance of everyone around him, though his sense of humor and dramatics usually make up for it. Despite all this, he is a genuinely kind person and loves giving (mostly unsuccessful) pep talks. His bravado is shown to be a facade as the series continues, and he meets Cress, an eccentric girl whom he learns to genuinely care for.

(Context for Line 1- One of our other leads just fell through the ceiling of Thorne’s prison cell, and she asks why he’s in there.) Yeah, these cells aren’t supposed to be occupied, but I have special circumstances. (Beat.) Thank you, but no. I’m not in for murder. I started a riot in the yard. We were protesting the soap. (Beat.) The soap. It’s too drying.
(Context for Line 2- Thorne is helping some of the other characters who just survived a horrific attack. They’re all on his space ship, which is more of a flying bachelor pad than a sci-fi marvel. ) Guys! Stop bleeding all over my ship! This is the second time this week, and guess who has to clean up? Me! (beat.) Iko, remind me to make some signs. Blood-Free Zone.
(Context for Line 3- Thorne just kissed a woman who used her powers (called a Glamour) to make herself look like the woman he’s in love with, Cress. Cress couldn’t see the Glamour and is angry.) Cress. She looked like you. The girl in the hallway- she wasn’t brunette or tall to me. She must’ve seen us walking together. Maybe she saw the way I looked at you or something, I don’t know, but she knew… she made her glamour look like you.
