Who: You!
Where: The lobby
When: Day 46, morning (forward dated)

[ Good morning! Once again, the lobby is filled with boxes and . . . boxes . . . and boxes. . .

This time, they obscure the kitchen as well as the exit door. So if you wanted to eat, then . . . you know. If you wanted to eat? Hmmm, how high can you jump? There are so many boxes here, some units even having twice as many boxes as other units do. Wow . . .

Well, what can you expect? You're idols, after all! So popular! Wow! ]

[ There's flicker of a Face at the snowglobes featuring him but it's gone just as quick as it appears. It does mean he's more prepared for his two letters, reading each before folding them back up neatly and turning to the nearest camera. ]

Thank you as always for your letters~ I'll surely use them to keep myself motivated now and into the future!

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Get anything good?

[ Holding up this letter for him. ]

This is my nicest one.

Obviously your flirt game is subpar if they haven't started drawing harem comics with you as the lead.

[scarvedforlife]

Says the guy who came in second place on an undateable list.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Fuck off. I'll be number one by the time that poll comes around next time.

[scarvedforlife]

Who knows when that'll be. It could be a one time special poll!

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Not if I cause a ruckus, it won't be.

Ha!

It's called working the audience, Shogun. You should give it a whirl sometime.

[scarvedforlife]

I'm still feeling out the personal appeal I want to go for. So far the only fans I've got are the ones who want to see me getting bullied around and that's not a role I want to play up.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Fuck the fans. What kind of niche are you going for personally outside of displaced AlcheME?

[scarvedforlife]

Yet to be determined! I've got to study all forms of idol personalities to scope the competition.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Ha! So you really are looking to fill a niche.

[scarvedforlife]

It's a surefire bet to getting my own set of devoted fans.

[sleeplessknight]

[was just passing by, but slows down to watch him address the camera]

[scarvedforlife]

Ah- Sunset! Have your fans sent you their loving expressions of fondness this round?

[sleeplessknight]

[makes a face]

Only a couple, but that was more than enough.

[scarvedforlife]

Leeeemme guess, rude ones?

[sleeplessknight]

I guess some of it was nice, but... for the most part...

[hand gestures]

But getting a lot means you're doing a good job as an idol, right?

[scarvedforlife]

Whether liked or disliked, getting fanmail does seem to be an overall good thing in getting noticed and sticking around.

It's not like their thoughts really have any consequence on us.

[sleeplessknight]

So we should actually be encouraging this kinda stuff, huh.

Do people who end up transferred get little fanmail?

[scarvedforlife]

I haven't really looked into that, but it'd be interesting data to collect and monitor.

[sleeplessknight]

I guess we could make a poll, but I don't know if there's a way to do something like that without making people nervous.

[scarvedforlife]

... Deeeefinitely don't call a poll for that. Instead, just count up the number of people here who are reacting to some fanmail. I can talk with a few people to see if they can help piece together the last few times fanmail came through.

[sleeplessknight]

[giving the room a quick glance]

Ahh, no, no, it's fine! Don't worry! I can try and work it out on my own. I'm just curious if the two are related, but... I mean, maybe I'm just overthinking it.
