002 ┼ THEY LEFT US ALONE / KIDS IN THE DARK / TO BURN OUT FOREVER / OR LIGHT UP A SPARK

[stylistic_disloyalty]

Who: Cosmic Indulgence, Flashstep, Junkyard Carnival, & System Shock + Any Virgo Onlookers
What: The Revenge EP is debuting in a flashmob-style performance. Four bands, four never before heard songs, one massive social media frenzy.
When: November 7th
Where: Sinammon
Warnings: ......sigh. Carnies.

The second the lockdown is lifted, Luci springs into action. She's mass texting everyone involved:

It's time. Tomorrow night, we ride at 7PM for an 8PM start. Get your best shit dry cleaned.

There's already an exodus happening out of Pride HQ given they weren't the only ones on lockdown either, so slipping out is easy enough. They converge on the location, Luci makes good on her suggestion and hands the techbooth a wad of money to stop playing recorded dance mixes and let them take over the stage. She can already see one guy frantically texting into his lap as she explains what's about to happen. Perfect.

"You should tell your manager to call in more bouncers and remove some of the tables, this place is about to be packed."


((OOC: Welcome to the culmination of the EP plot! Not much else to say but here's a description of the stage setup courtesy of Garnet for anyone curious, and LET'S ROCK!))

Comments

Oh she will. Right after she sets something on fire. 8]

"What do you think I'm doing every time I go up on stage?" Luci's face splits into a grin and she runs her tongue over her teeth. "The 'Sign on the Dotted Line' method is outdated and slow. Why not entrance dozens of willing young people via rock music? Wider net, less work."

eeeeeeexcellentttttttt

Yosuke only returns her statement with a incredulous look, feeling as if his previous thoughts were only more solidified by that.

"That's what I get for thinking anyone's normal in Pride," he mutters to himself. "You might be taking the Lucifer thing a liiiiittle too far. That's just seriously creepy to be saying stuff like that and believing it."

"Well what do you think you're doing when you gyrate your hips on that stage?" Luci asks, the picture of shock and innocence. "You think that makes those girls and boys want to enter the clergy?" She barks a laugh. "We're not stealing their souls like you'd steal a pizza, but they sure do belong to us for the duration of the show. Don't tell me you don't want that."

"Well of course I do!" He snaps back, finally seeing where she's going with this whole thing.

"But that's not even the same thing! You were making it sound way worse than it actually is! And it's still weird to even compare yourself to the devil or something!"
