I have to like suppress the thing, anything that might evoke that kind of attention that Laverne is getting.
Yeah.
I mean, there's a closeness now.
It's healthier now than it's ever been with my brother.
But I think the dynamic, we were not a touchy-feely family.
We weren't a family that said, I love you.
So, like, my brother and I, so we didn't do that.
Like, we didn't, like...
That wasn't our relationship.
But what we did, we bonded most around music, art.
There were periods when I would be in dance class and he would come and watch and critique and he would give me his notes.
And, you know, now it's like we talk a lot of politics, but then we also talk a lot of art.
Technically, it was mine, I guess, when it was determined that I wasn't butch enough to play my character pre-transition.
And I think what's interesting about that now is there, I think, Jodi, I think the writers.
Jodi Foster, who was a guest director.
Yes.
Dodie directed my backstory episode.
And that episode got me my first Emmy nomination.
So it was my character's backstory.
And the initial idea was that they needed to hire another actor to play me pre-transition.
