act one; action.

[Does the Dressing Room have a auditorium before? Well, it does now. Apparently, this new Aoko is walking by, curiously and somewhat worried, mostly about herself.]

This doesn't seem to be Tokyo at all. [She then sighs, before walking around pacing herself left and right, her voice now shaking in anger.]

Kuroba! You better not have kidnapped me for Daito again!

(OOC: [/nervousnervous] h-have an alternate universe Aoko from Glass Mask, manga verse. Basically, Aoko's an actress and Kuroba Kaito (Purple Rose/Masumi) is twenty-eight. Her rival is Akako. Have at it?)

[Of course, Aoko's only overexaggerating things. Her mother wasn't actually murdered, but it sure was staged like it was.]

Mm! Kuroba is so heartless! Aoko's mother had TB and she just left her to die when he was the one holding her captive!

fffff the art omg the art. I have no words.

[menaremyslaves.livejournal.com]

[Akako shakes her head slowly, disbelievingly.] Even holding someone captive is too much. Kuroba-kun would never-

Well. Not the one I know. I'm sorry yours is so cruel.

most retro art ever bb

[stagingstorms.livejournal.com]

[She shakes her head] He's twenty-eight and cold-hearted.

[WELL, NOT REALLY] But to tell you the truth, Aoko doesn't mind him! After all, Aoko has the Purple Rose by her side! [Which is really Kaito, but shh]

it makes me so sad

[menaremyslaves.livejournal.com]

The one I know is seventeen and your closest friend. [This is totally not said with deeply seated burning jealousy influencing her tone at all. No sir.]

A purple rose? That's an unusual color.

it's pretty old actually. 1980s I believe?

[stagingstorms.livejournal.com]

[Thank goodness that she can't tell jealousy when she's not acting, Akako]

The Purple Rose is Aoko's biggest fan! He must be really rich, though!

and still going? wow (but yeah, I totally believe that's 80's art)

[menaremyslaves.livejournal.com]

It must be nice to have a loyal fan. ...why do you say that he's rich?

the art's pretty much the same throughout. I think she didn't want to change styles. The story's rea

[stagingstorms.livejournal.com]

Because he did so many nice things! Aoko knows that Purple Roses are really expensive and he must have a lot of money to come to all of Aoko's shows and -- [She stops there, blushing in embarassment]

consistency is good. I follow a 20yr old manga that's changed, and it's noticeably awkward

[menaremyslaves.livejournal.com]

[She smirks.] Oh, I see. Those do sound like the characteristics of a wealthy man.

So, he comes to your shows and... what? I take it you're an actress. Does he leave you dozens of purple roses after every show? [I will irl laugh if this wild guess is right.]

yeah, it's just a bit weird.

[stagingstorms.livejournal.com]

[She smiles gently with sparkles in her eyes] Yes! He's my first and most dearest fan, since he gives me purple roses after each show!

...out of curiosity, how was your previous subject going to end?

[menaremyslaves.livejournal.com]

That's very sweet of him. [But Akako can't leave anything be, and so she pokes.] You must know him very well if he's your first fan. What is he like?

*the story's really good ffft

[stagingstorms.livejournal.com]

Aoko doesn't know. She's never met him.

word cutoffs are most annoying when you don't see them coming

[menaremyslaves.livejournal.com]

...you've never met him?

inorite?

[stagingstorms.livejournal.com]

[She shakes her head in silence.]

at least things like twitter tell you you've gone over. here, you have to guess.

[menaremyslaves.livejournal.com]

Then how do you know he's a man? Or one person? He could be your friend, or a group of people, or one person copying another.

[stagingstorms.livejournal.com]

[Mm. Good point.] Because of his middle man!

fffff my internet shut off early last night, sorry

[menaremyslaves.livejournal.com]

Middle man?

's okay, mine did as well.

[stagingstorms.livejournal.com]

Yes! [He's a really nice man, unlike most others.] I think his name was...Jii-san?

oh, good role for jii! who've you cast as sakurakouji?

[menaremyslaves.livejournal.com]

Well, how do you know that this Jii-san isn't your admirer? He brings you the flowers, doesn't he? He could be pretending to be the delivery person while actually being your fan.

He's Hakuba.

[stagingstorms.livejournal.com]

[She shook her head]

He's too old! He can't be-!

:D

[menaremyslaves.livejournal.com]

[She frowns.] What does age have to do with it? You don't know anything about him, remember?

[stagingstorms.livejournal.com]

He couldn't be! It's impossible! He wouldn't lie to me! He wouldn't!

[menaremyslaves.livejournal.com]

Why not? If he wants to keep his identity a secret, but still be able to see you, isn't lying the best way?
