[This is it. He briefly mentioned it to Tenn and Ryuu, and it's time. They've been here long enough, and the time to move is now. So, with a upbeat vocal-less track playing from his cell phone in the background, the former Sexiest Man in Japan comes on screen. He has silver hair like moonlight and deep gunmetal eyes, with cat-like pupils. Oddly enough, he's not Cordis.

He's dressed to the nines and has a serious, yet optimistic expression.]

Good evening. I'm Gaku Yaotome, leader of top Japanese idol group TRIGGER.

[He takes a moment to bow politely, like he would do for any intro video. Even if his social skills are lacking at other times, he has the business on this front down pat. Standing upright again, he offers a faint smile.]

Our other members are Tenn Kujo and Ryuunosuke Tsunashi. We'll be in your care. The music you're hearing is a preview of our debut single, "Diamond Fusion". This song means a lot to us, so I hope you'll enjoy it as much as we do.

Our idol activities here may just be beginning, but we'll be sure to capture your attention.

"A live as stimulating as the first time..."

We'll do our best to bring it to you. Look forward to it.

[He makes the TRIGGER gun hand sign, poses for a moment with that, then the screen goes black and there's a quiet, whispered "bang". It's actually kind of cool...]

Yeah, it's like that exactly. You're going to pick my color, right? [Grin.] It's gray, or silver. So I'll be watching the audience for you, Megumi.

[He can't help giving her a little extra fanservice for all the help she's given him, here and elsewhere. She's just a darling, and he's a bit enamored.]

What we probably need to get people started most is managers. People to book venues and events, people to coordinate appearances, studio coordination... Then, what? Choreographers? Composers? That's getting ahead of ourselves. Say, do you know Tenshouin?

[menphina]

Like I could pick anyone else? As tempting as Ryuu is, you like me more, don't you?

[ There's a light tease there, but she doesn't mind rubbing his ego a bit because she feels like he deserves it.

It's not like this place allows them to be close for long, once people leave and forget. ]

As for managing- that's easy. It's nothing I haven't done already, aye? Scouting for places to be in, looking for people in similar lines of work... and, making sure my tribe doesn't overdo it! Think that'd do well here, wouldn't it?

[ And at his question- ]

Oh, do you mean Eichi? He's a good lad. I was looking after him when he was in hospital here. We live in the same building! Why, is he a friend of yours?

[diamondfusion]

You're my favorite cat-person, Megumi. Don't worry.

[Grinning, he sighs. She's so damn good to him. He'll be sad if she ever leaves, really.]

An acquaintance, but we've been talking about really getting this going. If it's all of us working together, it might happen sooner than I thought.

[menphina]

[ Sometimes it worries her when she thinks of not wanting to leave... when she thinks that the people she's met here are people she may never see again... and maybe one of those people happen to be Gaku.

They've already been through a lot— she doesn't ever want him to have to go through anything he doesn't have to suffer. But she does smile at his words. ]

Then count me in! I'll help in whatever way you want, aye? Good talent only thrives when it has a chance to flourish, so just let me know whatI can do for you. Don't you hesitate a bit, okay?
