fanmail + theme announcement!

[idolpro]

Who: You!
Where: Hotel Lobby!
When: Day 338

[ What?? Is it. . . fanmail time already????

It is! So there are many boxes scattered around, less like they're blocking the entrances and more like they're just blocking your walking path in general. Don't trip, there's a box! Look out, it's a box! What's in the sky!? . . . I dunno, that's not a box!? ]

Producers: It's starting to warm up, so let's warm things up!
Producers: Out with the old, in with the new! Novel and Romance are over, now it's ✨✨✨RECIPROCATION✨✨✨ and ✨✨✨DRESS-UP✨✨✨for you!
Producers: Did you get something nice? Pay it back, you fucking fucker!
Producers: Did you get something mean? Get thy vengeance sevenfold!
Producers: Oh, and make sure you look nice when you do it!
Producers: You won't get the extra points though ☆(・ω<)

[ OOC NOTE: WE'RE GONNA TRY SOMETHING NEW!

In the interest of making it easier to hide/separate NSFW content, we're asking players to put their NSFW fanmail reactions under a "cut". How does that work? Here's an example!

We've got a poll up on Discord about it; if it's too much effort or if there's something about it you super don't like, you don't have to do it, but for the sake of player comfort and happiness, if it's not too big of an ask, we'd like everyone's cooperation in trying this out. Thank you! ]

Creepy, embarrassing, unsettling... it will all come in good time. You should enjoy this time while it lasts.

But there are some genuinely sweet things that come out of it too, so it's not all bad.

[ruinousempathy]

...I've started a fire if you need to burn anything.

[overworker]

...well, it's not too bad this time. Although I guess the plush is kind of weird, it's still a little cute.

And... the rest I don't mind...

[It's just Useless Horny Things which. will just be added to her secret hiding place.]

[ruinousempathy]

...Well as long as it's nothing you mind...

[overworker]

Some of it is definitely... surprising. Fans are oddly perceptive. But there are also those who have... active imaginations and go off the rails a bit.

None of this is the worst, even by embarrassment standards, that I've gotten so far.

[ruinousempathy]

Please don't judge based on the lowest possible bar...

[overworker]

...well, people still put time and effort into making these things. So I try to always remember that... even when I don't agree with them.

I can't approve of hateful things but... if someone makes me something that's embarrassing but it's something they think I'd like... well, I still want to appreciate that.

[ruinousempathy]

...You're really too kind. Creeps don't deserve your appreciation!

[overworker]

...I can't judge too harshly. After all, I have kept some of those things.

[But she's not talking about her dirty laundry with her son okok.]

Anyway... that's something you'll get to decide for yourself as you get more popular.

[ruinousempathy]

Just... promise me you'll burn anything that upsets you, rather than thinking of their feelings? Whether or not they meant for you to like it.

[overworker]

That I can definitely promise you.

[ruinousempathy]

Okay.

...Sorry for being pushy. I can't help but worry for you.

[overworker]

No, not at all. Please don't worry about it.

I'd want you to do the same for yourself.

[ruinousempathy]

Oh, for sure.

Also, I know I'm not supposed to ask a lady's age, but... It sounds like you're actually older than me?

1/3

[overworker]

2/3

[overworker]

That's right. I know how it looks but... I'm actually twenty-two.

3/3

[overworker]

Huh... actually, if you take into consideration the holidays here, it sounds like my birthday might not be too far off...

[ruinousempathy]

Oh you're like four or five years older than me, probably...

We should celebrate your birthday.

[overworker]

[...phew, at least he doesn't seem wildly shocked.]

--oh that's not necessary! I probably wouldn't have even thought about it at all if ages hadn't come up.

[ruinousempathy]

[he's mostly thinking she's really gonna appreciate her youth when she's much older]

Nope. We're gonna.

[overworker]

...I'm not winning this, am I?

[WHAT HAPPENED TO RESPECTING YOUR ELDERS]

[ruinousempathy]

I'm glad you can already tell when I'm about to be stubborn.
