Photo/Video. Upholding a proud tradition.

[twinkletwinklesuperstar]

[It’s a proud tradition afterall, the silly accidental first network post. This one comes with a photo though, of a rather famous face sitting at a table in a restaurant, smiling toward a camera.

It’s followed a few minutes later by a video post, revealing the girl herself.]

Oh, shoot, that was supposed to on my Instagram, not here. Oh, well, I guess the cat’s out of the bag now.

Hi, everybody, Kirara Hoshimoto here! I don’t really know what brought all this on, but it looks like I’m part of the group now. I guess we can call that picture a special gift just for this network, so if anybody wants an autographed version just let me know and I’ll send one right over, okay?

[She flashes the screen a big smile, winks and holds her hand up in the “V” sign.]

I’ll see you all around. Bye!


[OOC: If anybody wants to consider any test drive meme threads as canon, I'm down for that. Just let me know somewhere so I can roll with it!]

[Another new person... and weird things going on. Oh, this isn't ominous at all.

For the moment though, she puts on a smile and nods at the camera.]

Hello there, Kirara. It's nice to meet you. My name is Lily Tsukuyomi.

[Lily feels like she should know this person, for some reason. She seems familiar...ish? Lily is not a huge movie person. The talk of autographs seems a little... ah, bold. Though she's had to do her fair share recently herself.]

[twinkletwinklesuperstar]

[Huh? Well, no sooner than she started to put her phone away does she get an alert that somebody's talking to her. That was fast. She doesn't answer right away, taking a moment to straighten her hair up a little before returning to the video.]

Hi, Lily, it's nice to meet you too. [Wait a sec. Tsukuyomi... Tsukuyomi... she should know that name-- aha!] You're one of those... Cures, right?

[This might be somewhat relevant to her interests.]

[Ah, well. At least on recognizes the other. Lily takes that and smiles, nodding in response.] Yes, I'm one of the Precure, Cure Moonlight. It still feels kind of weird that people recognize me from all that, sometimes.

[Even if she's put her name out there a lot more now... but it does fele weird, still!]

[scarlet_devil]

[What the hell is that high pitched sound? Oh, it's just an excited fan.]

Oh my god I can't believe you're actually one of us! I mean, I'd love a signed version!

[She liked Valhalla and Starlight Hero Squad before that. Specifically, Kirara's roles in them.]

video;

[twinkletwinklesuperstar]

[Ah, that old sound. That excitement from a fan, that's never, ever going to get old. She greets her newest fan with a bright smile over the screen.]

Can do! All I need to know is where to send it to and your name!

[scarlet_devil]

Oh, right. I'm Emilia. Emilia Stacojiu. I'm, well... obviously Numbered and I'll stop before I babble too much.

[And she gives her address in Gateway, forgetting to lock the information to Kirara.]

[Audio]

[numberedshepherd]

I am a huge fan of your work. I'd like an autograph, but... seeing as you're new to this, is there anything in particular you want to know? Do you have questions about your new status?

[Audio]

[twinkletwinklesuperstar]

[More fans, more autographs. Wow, she should have actually used this thing sooner. Oh, but it sounds like that's a second priority here.]

Questions? Hmm....

[She takes a second to think that over before replying.]

Not really! I mean, I already read all the news stories and looked back through here a bit. Magical network, weird memories, sometimes superpowers. That's about it, right?

[Audio]

[numberedshepherd]

On a... very basic level, yes, I suppose that's about it.

You're taking this a lot better than most people. Do you think that it can benefit your career?

[Video]

[witnessme]

What? No way! You were incredible in Valhalla!

What would it take for you to go out on a date with me?

[Video]

[twinkletwinklesuperstar]

[Oh, wow, look at this guy.]

Aw, thanks! It was really exciting getting to work on--

[-- Okay, that's... pretty bold coming right out of the gate with a question like that. Fortunately! It's nothing she isn't used to, both before her fame kicked off and especially after. She doesn't falter for a second, keeping her smile.]

Oh... sorry, but I'm not really dating right now! My schedule's just way too filled up with work for that.

[Don't be a creep, don't be a creep....]

[Video]

[witnessme]

[Aw, shot down! But Luca isn't entirely unused to this. It's better to risk rejection than to not take a chance at all.]

Ah. So gracious. I thought you would be.

[dragon_blossom]

Oh shit, really?

[ Sudden cursing, ho. ]

I'm Marina Santana, I gotta see if my girlfriend wants your autograph. Like, at least that much. Welcome to the mess by the way.

Video

[twinkletwinklesuperstar]

Really.

[Never bothered her! She just doesn't use it when she's in public appearance mode. Smiles and family friendly is the name of the game.]

It doesn't look like that much of a mess so far, [she just hasn't found any slime yet.] but thanks for the welcome. Let me know about your girlfriend, sending two is no problem.

Video

[dragon_blossom]

Awesome. [ Daaang yeah, she's pretty. ]

Oh, trust me, even if things have calmed down, you better be ready for something screwed up to come to you, sooner or later. Like, not trying to scare you, just... prepare you?

[ She should be a rapper aw yeah. ]

Anyways, thanks! That'd be great.

[charcoalfeather]

[Did you want loud, almost comical gasping?

No? Too bad. That's what you're getting, Kirara.

Rakka can't come to the phone right now please leave a message and she'll get back to you.]

[Video]

[twinkletwinklesuperstar]

Um.

[Well, okay, that actually gets her to break "character" for a second when she hears that gasp. She blinks, and leans a little closer to the screen. Yes, Rakka, that really is her.]

Are... are you okay?

[Video]

[charcoalfeather]

[It is her. Rakka immediately recognizes that face... and she can hardly believe it. It's not that she didn't want to believe it, it just took her mind a short while to acknowledge it.]


....Kirara. [She blinks.] You're... Kirara?

[darkhourdear]

[you are an actor and this is highly relevant to Phillip's interests.]

Ah! Um, hello! [oh gosh how does he talk to actual successful actors, it's hard enough with the older members of the community theater sometimes] I'm Phillip, it's nice to meet you! Um, I've been around here for a while if you have any questions!

...Also you were really good in Valhalla.

voice

[twinkletwinklesuperstar]

[Hey, she's always willing to offer tips to the up-and-coming types. She smiles at the compliment, laughs a little bit just to put him at ease.]

Thanks, Philip, I'll definitely remember that. Everybody's been really nice so far.

voice

[darkhourdear]

[Well, she seems nice, so that's good! (He knows some actors can actually be kind of awful.)]

Yeah, we tend to look out for each other on here. [for obvious reasons- no one else is looking out for them, most of the time.]

[video]

[jasminebloominginshadow]

You're... You're a Numbered.

[the realization that Jasmine had a passive aggressive debate with a celebrity that she could no longer hide from is hitting her now]

I... I...

... Good to have you with us?

[video]

[twinkletwinklesuperstar]

[Okay, but maybe it's not that bad. It was awhile ago and she meets plenty of people, she probably doesn't even remember it, right? Right?]

Yep. [Just look at that smile.] I'm happy to be here.




[SHE REMEMBERS.]

[Video]

[lovesickkiller]

[Omg omg omg it's a real movie star omg play it cool.]

Welcome! That's not weird to say is it— well! It's really cool to have a movie star here!

[Misa takes a deep breath, trying very hard to come across as a professional. She is a journalist, after all, she can't go being all star-struck. Or she should at least try to hide it.]

I'm Misa Amane, it's great to meet you! Having a charming actress around will definitely help our PR around here.

[Video]

[twinkletwinklesuperstar]

[Totally a natural reaction. Kirara's not complaining of course, if anything, she's eating up all these reactions.]

I don't think it's weird at all, I appreciate it!

[She laughs a bit.]

Well, I'll see what I can do. I think my agent might have a heart attack over this if I just started talking about this stuff in interviews.
