“It's so much better to pretend There's something waiting for you here. Every letter that you wrote Has found its way to me, my dear.” ☆BETTER TO PRETEND ![]() For musicians in either Pride or Virgo, the job offer is delivered by their managers- a suggestion to accept an invitation from Sevetop to participate in a successful gameshow. (A message that is delivered perhaps a bit more pressingly to some, with the unsaid words of “This is a chance to make it up to us”.) For others, strangers just trying to make a living and wait for their chance to save their loved ones, the message is delivered over their communicators by Gold, with promises that infiltrating this event will aid you in liberating the captives from their label's control. Either way, all roads lead to Sevetop Entertainment. Sevetop might not have the weight that musical giants Pride Labels and Virgo Entertainment do, but that’s because it’s not into the musical industry. Sevetop is all about television and the big screen. For these purposes, it has its own little area of the city, a bustling kind of Hollywood filled with the more office-like buildings, auditoriums for additions, and even various sets. Whether you’re driven in style via limo, or brought to a regular line of buses, this is where you end up at. Musicians, of course, end up at the more posh meeting room. A spread of delicate little lunch sandwiches, veggie platters, cupcakes, and assorted beverages are on a table for anyone to snatch up, and regularly refilled. Every celebrity is handed a small folder with papers inside going over both the boring legal things and explaining the purpose of the show. “Royals” are the ones to be “saved”, but they don’t have to make the journey easier on their “Heroes” and are given tools at their disposal to help or hinder. Heroes have one goal to accomplish, ‘rescuing’ their Royal, but it changes depending on the challenge. Much to your surprise, some of those aspiring Heroes might just look familiar. Don't tell! ☆THE HEROES In another building, next door, various people picked off the street (some coincidentally, others not so much, thanks to Gold's glamour witchcraft) are being given very much the same kind of presentation… In a room much more cramped, with not nearly enough chairs, on a slideshow. The only refreshments available are small bags of chips (try not to take more than one) and coolers full of bottled water. After the separate presentations are done with, everyone is allowed to check out the sets for past seasons, which includes what look like giant mushroom tops that are made of very bouncy rubber, climbing walls made of fake vines, pumpkin shaped carriages (horses not included), and other such things. Of course, it’s not all play. While you’re messing about, you’ve all been given numbers. Once you’ve been called, you’re to stand in front of Fairy Trial’s hosts and commentators: siblings Bella and Maurice Hooks. Both of them are equally friendly, although her more outgoing to his easygoing, but they have plenty of questions for this little audition. Tell them about yourself: hobbies, job, your favorite fairy tale, what you think your best skill is - and then, the most important, you get to display a choice "talent" in front of the audience. It can be whatever you like, as long as it's crowd appropriate. Be careful, though, because the rock stars you're hoping to work with are watching, too. At the very least, don't make an ass out of yourself. Gold's enchantments are good, but there are some things that even magic can't charm its way through. After all this, you’ll get a chance to just rest and mingle while your rides come back to take you back to the mall or HQ you were picked up at. Obviously for certain famous names, they’ll probably be the first ones out, but who knows… Maybe there was a traffic delay, and now you have some time to spare waiting around here as well. Just take note that you’re not allowed to wander too far from the Fairy Trial sets. Security is keeping an eye on folks to make sure they don’t steal or wreck anything. And don’t worry, you’ll be told about the results within a week! They promise. “You can make believe that what you say Is what I want to hear. I'll keep dancing through this Beautiful delusional career.” |
b, a little late!
Planning on crossing the Rubicon?
it's never too late!
[ First time for everything. He tucks his suspiciousness away for now and grins at her, straightening up. ]
Hell yeah. Taking Roma for myself. That and I've always wanted a cape to flip.
[ He mimics the motion of tossing toga over his shoulder. ]
no subject
Despite what Serena had said, she can't believe she'd ever completely write off men as a source of entertainment.]
Well, the Ides are coming up. I'm not much of a soothsayer, though so I suppose the commonality ends there.
[Probably. Who could say?]
I'd say the look suits you though.
no subject
[ She's evidently not the only one to think he's charming, either, if his... er, various forms of popularity are anything to go by. (Please run before it's too late.)
Orgasms count as entertainment right. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)][ The grin turns upside down for a moment. His teeth are still showing, though. ]
Fuck, not again. And there I hoped I fulfilled my being assassinated quota of the decade.
[ But of course he'll be back to looking smug in no time. Compliments are great, especially when they are well deserved, which he's sure of. He might as well be wearing a crown right now. ]
Heh, thanks. It's probably in my genes.
[ You know, what with both him and Ancient Romans being filthy Italians and so on. Not to mention he does seem to have just enough muscle to actually fill in that armor, despite being sort of lanky overall. ]
Found anything for yourself yet?
no subject
As for his charm, well…he’s out of luck there. Yosuke was her first and last boy, and even if she wasn’t still troubled by their breakup and his firing she’s had a girl confess that she’d come to rescue her because she loves her. That kind of makes you wonder about a few things. But she still likes sarcasm and people who’re intelligent enough to catch the meaning of sayings tied to the distant past. Congrats Squalo, you basically caught her attention by not being clueless.]
Could be. The name fits, at any rate. [She chuffs a little laugh and spins in place. She’d been wearing a courtier’s kimono, the whole nine yards.]
Apparently it was picked out so well it looks like normal clothes.
no subject
[ Funny, that. He'd probably say something about them not finding the right dick yet and that it's dumb to limit yourself to one anything, but luckily, he's oblivious to that fact. ]
Would also explain why I'm so brilliant. And prone to getting stabbed.
[ She's in luck, there's plenty of sarcasm for everyone. He does give her an appreciative once-over once she spins, though. ]
Shit, you're right. I thought it was looking a bit excessive, but you have that whole Japanese priestess thing going on...
no subject
[Smiling brightly, she gives him a half-bow.]
Rei Hino, from Flowers over Bones. It's nice to meet you in person.
[With zero reason not to be super nice, a nice encounter with that girl Di, and after having escaped Ankh in the dressing rooms, she's in a fairly energetic mood.]
no subject
[ He starts bringing forward a hand when she bows, so he withdraws it and does his best impression of a slight-bow in return. ]
Hey, same here. Squalo. MANTICORE.
no subject
I've heard you play. You've got talent.
no subject
[ He does sort of pause and look at her flatly when she says that compliment, though. As if it's somehow Not Enough. ]
Yeah, I know. I didn't cheat my way into fame.
no subject
[She holds up a placating (hopefully) hand.]
I would never suggest such a thing. I've followed you guys since the beginning. I just...can't talk about it much, since I think Angel would skin me...
no subject
[ You know, what with the whole being a ho thing. He might've taken those articles with humor but that doesn't mean he wasn't annoyed. ]
Anyway -- what. Your manager doesn't want you listening to other bands? How the fuck would you keep improving otherwise?
no subject
No, not that. I'm just not supposed to talk about it. It's some weird image thing, I don't really understand it. I'm just supposed to be quiet, and polite, and like only certain kinds of music. But metal is not one of the things I'm supposed to like, even if I do listen to it.
Which is stupid, but it only matters in public, anyway.
no subject
I see. [ it seems weird, but he supposes he wouldn't want anyone to catch him karaoke-ing to Flashstep songs. Not that he would. ] Well, if you're ever curious, I've played classical before. I try not to advertise it, but...
no subject
no subject
[ Wasn't it supposed to be the other way around? Him adopting a stagename after moving to Americana? But with all those things he's been... dreaming, or remembering -- by now he's certain that "Squalo" is his real name. Always has been. ]
I can send you some links if you give me your contact.
no subject
[Rei slips her hand into the folds of her obi and pulls out a small business card with a stylized casablanca lily on it. Passing it over with both hands she bows again. ]
Here is my private email and Facebook. Feel free to add me.
no subject
[ He'll take it and tuck it into his pocket, eyeing that bow with a bit of confusion. ]
...Was I supposed to do that too?
no subject
[Her head dips again as she smiles.]
Nice talking to you. I'll see you again, I'm sure.
no subject
[ He'll return the bow in the more Western manner. May or may not try to kiss her hand because hey, no such thing as putting the game on too much right. ]
