"I didn’t go anywhere without my earbuds and my music. Each character had different music in my mind. I remember nihilist Cassie was System of a Down, very heavy stuff. And future perfect Cassie was classical. And it would just put me in this mode."
"Each character had such a unique personality and had their own issues, even future perfect Cassie. No one is perfect. We used to laugh that she was the most f**ked up of them all. At least the others are being truthful, right?"
