to be honest? wasn't paying that much attention to the last competition. but nah, they don't. they rely on their movements and singing and stuff like that. was too busy working lights and sound and also trying to take a nap.
We might, since Leo-kun suggested forming a shuffle unit! He said he'd take care of the music and I could take care of the other stuff! I'll admit the idea does hold some appeal, since I don't like going too long without being onstage. Plus I'll get rusty if I don't sing at all, and I've heard you can collect tips that way!
Though I'm still not sure how I feel about performing for a bunch of brainwashed shop clerks and embarrassing nouveau riche types. That's not my ideal audience at all, I'm afraid. But I'm sure the other hostages could use some cheering up!
Leo-kun, Rinne-senpai, and of course, Jun-kun! I'm not sure how we'll sound together, but there's nothing we can do but try our best. As far as cheering someone up goes, songs are usually more effective than a pep talk, at least in my experience. They're what you'd call a universal language.
Though I do give wonderful pep talks, too, of course. Just ask Jun-kun!
[ closes eyes. he haunts me everywhere i go... am i being blessed or cursed, who's to say ]
well. i guess i can't say i wouldn't mind hearing what you all sound like together. but i feel bad for your jun if he's the one who has to be on the receiving end of your pep talks.
Like I said, my talks aren't bad! There was one time when he got hired to play the lead role in a stage production, which was a bit out of his wheelhouse. He looked a little lost while he was trying to "get in character," so I gave him a wonderful talk to boost his confidence!
But anyway, since you'll already be attending our show to hear what we sound like, why not use some of that sound and lighting expertise for our benefit? Those who work behind the scenes are equally as important. It's thanks to them that we can shine our very brightest ✨
Though I don't really know what our stage, sound system, or live show will look like yet, so I suppose there's no need to make a commitment now. Just give it some thought, OK?
[ he wonders if it actually helped... might have to ask jun directly about that one ]
i'll think about it. you're lucky you've met someone that knows how to handle that kind of equipment around here, huh. especially for productions like what you want to run. but you're going to have to pay me well, and not in favors or IOUs.
The warm and fuzzy feeling of having helped someone simply won't cut it for you, huh. Fortunately, that's just what I expected!
I'll give you a bunch of vouchers! Then you'll be able to afford all the katsu you want, and perhaps even a wildebeest to snack on! And you'll be able to afford new clothes fit for a prince, including a shirt which you could use to cover your chest with if you so wish! Doesn't that sound like a lovely deal?
An excellent choice! That's what we call the ultimate reward ⭐
[Actually, that's a little suspicious, since Leona didn't seem terribly interested in idol stuff before. But if he's being sarcastic, whatever! Hiyori will just ignore it, the same way he ignores other stuff he doesn't want to address!]
Something tells me you're the type who expects me to paid out before you lift a finger to help, so I'll keep that in mind. We can arrange the personal concert before the group concert!
And going back on my word to a prince would be like breaking royal decree. But not to worry! Giving concerts is my specialty, and I wouldn't break any promise made to a fan.
[He isn't stupid. He can detect the innuendo at this point. But there's no way Leona will actually claim he owes "that," right? Someone so proud of their body (including the supposedly huge thing between their legs!) shouldn't need to resort to such measures. Yep, there's no way!]
Great ✨⭐✨ And *I'll* look forward to your stage lights! ✨😊✨ And your help with the sound system! I may need that help for one other thing, too, actually, so do keep that in mind. But I'll keep you posted about when that is! Talk to you later! ✨👋😘✨✨

[ just saying ]
i'll think about it.
if anything, it doesn't matter how you pay me
you'll still owe me.
Oh no... Hope you're okay!
Date: 2024-04-19 03:53 pm (UTC)okay is subjective but i'm alive!

ty... i will do my best
Date: 2024-04-22 11:09 pm (UTC)i don't like getting paid early. if things go wrong, then i just owe you for something i might not want to do.
but going against your word would be pretty un-idolly of you, so.
