genessia | 05TH AFFAIR

VIDEO

Hello Genessia. It's been sometime since I addressed everyone and I do hope everyone is doing well. This address will be directed towards public relations as well as a general announcement.

[She smiles into the camera, her bright blonde curls perfectly framing the angelic curves of her face.]

I've decided to sign up with a talent agency which will range from singing, acting to modeling and hopefully more. As such my hours at After Life might be affected though I've yet to learn what my schedule holds.

If I am able to perform I'd be honored if anyone could come.

[Crystal continues after a short pause.]

For my general announcement I wanted to ask two questions. What did most of you do at home and is that what you're doing here? I've decided to branch out a little more and I'm curious as to what other have done.

Thank you for your attention.

ACTION | NOVA CITY

[Crystal can be found in many places around Nova City. She spends a part of her day shopping, hoping to find clothes that rang outside of her usual dress. She can also be found at a coffee shop or tea shop mid day, taking a break and resting her feet. She's finds it hard to remain idle so she works to keep herself busy. Later at night she can be found at work, hosting one of the VIP rooms at Afterlife. There are a few times that she can be spotted behind the bar. The bright curls unmistakable even under the dark lights of the club.]

*Looks like Sonico is also out and about, exploring Nova City for the first time really since she'd signed up to the agency. Needing refreshment herself, Sonico heads into a coffee shop for an iced coffee. She glances around the place for somewhere to sit when she sees Crystal just across the room. Tentatively, Sonico walks over and gives a shy little wave with her free hand*

[Crystal looks up from her drink, a pleasant smile stretching across her lips as she does.]

Hello Sonico. Would you like to join me.

[She gestures to the seat next to her.]

*Pleased that the other woman has remembered her, Sonico nods with a grateful smile*

Thank you!

*Sonico sits down as she sips on her drink*

Hi Crystal, how are you? Enjoying your day?

I am.

[She nods to a few bags at her side.]

I've been shopping though I'm happy for a break. How about you?

Oh my, a triple threat? Ibuki better work hard to make sure the agency doesn't forget her.

[Never mind questions. This is way more important. Even if she only just signed up herself.]

No.

[Blunt and to the point.]

What I did back home and here are two different things. The only thing I did back home and do here... while similar I never got paid to do until I came here because I did that in my spare time before, not as an actual job.

I actually helped my mother out working at an inn. So I guess you could say what I am doing is the same, but I accepted this is what I wanted to do before I came here, so it's not like I was ever going to decide to do something else.

[She was happy to do it after all, she had accepted the inn as part of who she was and she liked it.]

You must work a lot of hours if you are doing all of that?

[It was impressive since nagisa didn't do as much really.]

[Crystal laughs softly. She's beginning to notice that she will be working with a lot of kids.]

I'm sure you'll be fine. Your style appears to be different from my own.

[She likes the girls hair, it's cute.]

Why don't you do the same thing as back home?

[Crystal assumes it's either situational, meaning that this girls needs to be in her world to do her job, or that it's a job she hadn't wanted to do in the first place.]

Or something similar.

I think it's admirable of you to continue to follow your passion, even after being relocated.

[Crystal's tone is soft and sincere. She finds that kind of strength rare in those she meets.]

It isn't really that much.

[Crystal smiles at the eager boy.]

I don't work every day at after life and my hours vary between 11pm - 3 am or midnight to 4 am. There is plenty of time to do other work as well.

[She only needs about 5 hours of sleep a night.]

Oh! Shopping! I should probably do some more of that.

*Sonico glances down at her plain tshirt and denim skirt*

Buy anything nice?

I'm just exploring! I haven't seen much of this place so thought I'd take a look around. Still trying to get used to everything...

Could be, could be. Ibuki's style has been known to divide audiences across the lands.

[And Crystal certainly doesn't look like she's about to break out a secret heavy metal growl any time soon.]

[He looks impressed.]

A talent agency, huh? That...sounds like a great idea, actually. Do they specialize in female talent, or does it matter?

[Because reasons.]

I, uh, was a really good barista and didn't find much work on stage, but that's what I went to school for.

A few skirts and shirts.

[She takes a sip of her coffee.]

I own mostly dresses.

Nova City is where I've been living, its the city I know best so if you have any questions please let me know.

[Crystal laughs softly.]

So in the end we can work together, no?

[She smiles at the familiar face.]

Men and women both. They will help will all talents so you merely have to list what skills you have.

Where did you look for stage work?

That sounds nice. I've never really worn a dress... Not that wasn't for a costume for a photo shoot or an event, anyway.

*Sonico smiles softly at Crystal, then glances away as she sips at her own iced coffee. It was strange to her, sitting around casually and having girly talk*

Oh, you live here? Are there any places you'd recommend for me to go?

[Crystal inclines her head in a gentle nod.]

I can show you a few places. It depends on what sort of style you're looking for.

[Her eyes quickly scan down Sonico's form.]

At first glance I have a few stores in mind.

I don't really have a style. I just sort of pick whatever is comfortable, mostly.

*She was a fan of simple tshirts and skirts, and things with paws or cats printed on*

You do? I suppose...it might be nice to look at something different?

[What Sonico might not know is that picking what's comfortable is a style since cut and shape are all a part of clothing.]

Well you'll have plenty of options.

[Crystal smiles.]

We have time. If you'll permit me to guide you.

I auditioned to a lot of venues who were way above my status, and then I slowly lowered my expectations until I was in little back-door playhouses that sometimes neglected to pay you.

[He nods.]

I'll look into it.

Ooh, Ibuki would love that! It's been a long time since she had anyone to actually play with. Not to say Hajime-chan didn't try but I don't think his heart was ever really in it.

I hope you're able to make something of yourself here then.

[Her tone is light and even while a small smile crosses her lips.]

I look forward to see you when you do.
