*Sonico would have much preferred to do this by text only, but she figures that if she's offering her image as a way of making money then it's only fair that clients get to see what they're paying for. The video is therefore taken at a slightly awkward angle as Sonico does her best to show her face and her upper body*

Hello everyone, Sonico here!~ Before I start with the main part of this message I wanted to thank everyone I've met recently. You've all been very kind and helpful, and I feel much more settled here now. Thank you.

*After that, it's time for the main message. Used to her manager doing all the PR work and communications for her, this is quite a new thing for Sonico but she does her best not to let the awkwardness show so that she can give a good impression*

Today I'm letting you all know that I offer part-time modelling work, and I'd love to get started here in Genessia. Back home, I have a large portfolio of work as I have taken part in many different kinds of modelling work. So far I have experience in magazine picture spreads, single photo shoots, advertising, and I've also made appearances at conventions and events.

If you'd like me to help with work of this kind, please feel free to get in touch. If you think of something in future, you can contact me directly via the device, or you might prefer to see me in person at the Bright Sky Diner.

I look forward to working with you!

*To conclude, Sonico gives a warm smile and a soft bow of the head*

[Action Option - Come find her at the Bright Sky Diner if you so desire! She'll be there in super cute waitressing gear!]

[The text will read: Mr.Smith.]

A model? I wouldn't have guessed. Do you really make money off of that?

[Crystal sees the girls video but sees no reason to reply to it. She has no need for a model though she'd agree that Sonico is very charming. She decides she wants to meet this cute girl and heads out to the dinner that she'd mentioned in her message.

When she arrives she finds a seat before waving to the pink haired girl.]

Excuse me? Do you have a moment? I'd like to speak to you.

[Crystal lets her eyes roam over the girls outfit.]

You look very cute.

Hello Mr Smith!

Modelling is actually how I make most of my money - it's really helping to pay my way through school. It's not what I want to do forever, but it's not bad and it can pay a lot!

*Sonico sees the woman waving at her and heads over quickly with a bright smile*

Hello! How can I help?

*She takes a little notepad and a small pencil from her apron pocket, ready to take an order. But instead what she gets is a compliment, causing her to cheeks to flush*

Thank you so much, miss!

I wanted to ask about your modeling. If you don't mind.

[She'll also order a coffee. Not ordering anything would be rude.]

I've thought about doing something similar though I work as a hostess right now. [Crystals smile widens.] I enjoy talking to people to much to stop.

I guess it helps to be pretty.

You think I'm pretty, Mr Smith? That's very kind! C:

Of course, miss. Let me get your coffee and I'll be more than happy to talk with you.

*With that, Sonico disappears, returning a couple of minutes later with a small tray with coffee, sugar, and milk*

Here you are, miss.

*Once she'd put the tray down, Sonico settled into the seat opposite the woman and smiled*

So, what would you like to know? I've beem modelling for about 18 months or so now, so I'm not the most experienced ever but I will do my best.

I was implying something else.

Thank you.

[Crystal smiles at her cup before bringing the steaming liquid to her lips.]

I'm just curious about your experiences. If you don't mind such a vague question.

Oh... So you mean that I'm not??

I didn't say that either.

[He's teasing her now though he feels a little bad that she doesn't know who he is.]

Then what do you mean?

*Sonico frowns at her phone and sends another message*

Have I missed something?

I model too, just part-time. Sign up with an agency here and it's pretty easy and everything.

I'm neither confirming nor denying that you are pretty.

[Now he's rethinking telling her that it's him because that'll probably come back to bite him in the ass...somehow.]

I see. So really what you're telling me is...nothing? Why bring up the idea of prettiness in the first place?

Unless it is because you think that you are pretty and that you should be a model?

That really isn't it. I'm just teasing Sonico.

Well, let's see. I started modelling because a scout saw me in town and decided that I might be a good model, and that I'd make lots of money. Then my manager took me under his wing and since then I've done all sorts.

*Sonico smiles at the woman and glances her over carefully. She's certainly beautiful, and she seems rather classy. Which prompts Sonico onto her next question*

If you don't mind me asking...what kind of modelling are you interested in?

Oh!

*So he's teasing... Well, that's good to know. She's still a little confused by it all*

Well, I know you won't confirm if you think I'm pretty or not, but if you ever need someone to model some Shakespeare books for you and you think I'd do a good job, then let me know! I've modelled for books before.

Really? Are the agency good? Do you have a nice manager?

*Sonico pauses, realising that she's rattling off too many questions*

I'm not a publisher but that might be an interesting venu. Are you familiar with 1600's clothing at all?

Sure! That's all ruffles and lace and corsets, right?

More or less, they wore a lot of layers. It'd be too hot for the summer unless you were inside.

That's why the ladies weren't allowed to play sports - they would get too hot and faint! But then, maybe in those days there was the chance to be caught by a handsome gentleman poet!

Not exactly.

[Though her enthusiasm is cute.]

They did faint to be noticed by men though. In fact fainting was expected and well received depending on the occasion.
