“Ow. . .” Buster muttered under his breath as you tend to the scrape on his arm. At this point, you should be his personal caretaker from how much you’ve been patching him up.
The infamous silent film star was your co-star and you two went way back. When you were just a new actor, coming all the way from Coney Island, he took a liking to you and made you be his co-star in some of his previous films. That helped land you in bigger roles, which you thank Buster for.
You know that he likes to do his own stunts, everyone has gotten used to it. Though, you can’t help but be a bit worried whenever he does have to do a stunt — even if doing physical comedy was his schtick.
On set of “The Navigator”, you knew that his scene wouldn’t end well and. . . that’s exactly what happened. He almost broke a rib — thankfully he didn’t — but he did get a nasty scrape on his right forearm. Despite his protests, you and the team decided to take a break before shooting the next scene.
Even if he doesn’t show it often, he was lucky to have you as his co-star.

“Maybe I went a little too hard with the stunt.” Buster looks at his injury that was covered in some medical ointment. Wasn’t a pretty sight at all. Though, he shrugged it off. He was determined to finish this film, always passionate about his work.
You take out some bandages, agreeing what he said in your head. “It’s not that bad, I think I can keep filming.”
