[Someone has heard Rasha's voice, but for Don - well. Loving himself is pretty much par for the course.]

So back in my time we have this thing called the Mickey Mouse club. A whole bunch of kids who sing and dance about Mickey Mouse. He's got a song.

Who's the leader of the club
that's made for you and me
M I C - K E Y M O U S E

And so on, and so forth. he's a talking mouse and he's Disney is amazing. He's pretty damn fantastic. He's not as great as I am but he's still pretty damn good. Where was I.

Anyway this boy band thing for those who are curious seems like the Mickey Mouse club and all of you look stupid in your hats and T-shirts. No class. No style. Nobody has any idea what class or style looks like and the only thing you have to turn to is my era. We defined it.

We peaked in the 60s. I'm at the peak. All there is to it, but I thought I'd provide some insight. Namely that. Children are dumb. And that's what this is.

[OOC: for anyone who wants to find Don, he'll be strutting around in his nicest 1960s cut suit at 100% Thot level 2 clubs flirting with anyone who gets close. Leave some action tags for him.]

your planet peaked when they started singing about a talking mouse?

My dad would probably agree with you about the sixties being the best, but are you really comparing yourself to Mickey Mouse? Not even Walt Disney or someone?

Your era has some kind of monopoly on class and style? Excuse you, but I have a thing or ten to say about that!

As far as music, we did peak in the 60s, though the 70s and 80s did have some great rock bands.

[ He... kind of agrees about the style too, but one thing at a time. ]

As far as life and society though? Absolutely not. This thing you're using to type this out? We have this for real in 2020.

The boy band thing is a little bit more than 'children are dumb', especially because this one in particular seems to be attracting adults too. It seems to have created a form of mass psychogenic illness, or mass hysteria.

A lot of adults seem really into these guys too, though.

Was this Mickey Mouse Disney guy a kid himself? Sounds kind of weird if he was an adult with an all-kid club...

I stopped reading at "he's not as great as I am."

You worried about that fictional mouse upstaging you? Cute.

you know the king/

[ He's probably missed a good portion of the rest of this post since that first part really stood out. He's never been as close to the King as Sora and the others, but it's still weird to hear someone he doesn't know talk about him. ]
