Ami Aihara shared a photo.
4/06 near Viea Village

hey everybody! ami here
and no i didnt actually turn green!
this is just a makeup test
becaaaaause
im going to be playing melfaba in the rhs production of villainous next month!
needless to say i am super excited
i dont know the exact showtimes yet but ill let you know when i do
also if you want to see how i achieved this look
i posted a tutorial on my youtube channel
which you can watch right here!
i hope you enjoy both it and the play :D

[ICly the link leads to a video tutorial, which is about 10 minutes long. It also features a little sneak preview at the end: Ami singing the first part of "No Good Deed" in her room, candelit and decorated with all sorts of spooky paraphernalia for what's actually a pretty neat effect! Even if it ... does make it kind of hard to see the makeup during that part.]

Oh! Congratulations~!
I'm not sure if we've met but I'm going to be Fayero so I figured I should introduce myself

Haha, that's the spirit!

Oh yeah, it sounds like my cousin's gonna be your understudy.

natalia?
shes not in high school

Oh no! Not Natalia. Another one.
Dia Kurosawa.

I'm not dying to get his code or anything it doesn't matter

wonderful, the called me wonderful~

[and the lyric quoting starts]

You make a pretty green witch!
I'm just having a hard time wrapping my head around you in the part.
You aren't very witchy.
Unless it's some kind of goth punky witch.

okay but malphaba looks way cooler with your horns

I don't see why not! Less snobbish art critics and more relaxed production sounds way more fun to me.

[Salty? Naaah....]

!!! Like what type of crossover? Do you mean something like makeup, or a video game Let's play?

either! or both
fair warning though im pretty bad at video games

oh haha
duh people can have more than one cousin cant they
well thats cool!
ive met dia a bit shes nice

hmmm
you know if the part was for a magical girl or something like that id agree with you
but witches are about as goth as it gets!
its more classical goth than punky goth
but i mean im already way into black lace
all i really need is the pointy hat

[the obvious thing to say is "hi there love interest" but that's way too awkward.]

oh hey!
yeah thats probably a good idea haha
i look forward to dancing through life with you soon!
only not literally since im pretty sure im not in that song

[SHUCKS......]

you really think so?
i was worried about the colors clashing

Haha, yep.
I have lots of them.

Dia's very nice!
And she's a perfectionist, so she'll work hard!

so what if clashes a little
don’t they all reject her just because she looks different?
i think it fits

Yeah but aren't they also usually evil?
And you're kinda ridiculously nice.

aww thank you
but it turns out thats the entire theme of the play!
melfaba is not an evil person
but rather
well
actually i dont want to spoil it for you!
you will just have to come see for yourself

[ YEAH... yeah no ]

I think you are but only a little?
Either way though I hope you'll help this brainless guy figure out what he's doing
I've never been in a show like this before!

haha yeah
thats true!
i guess it is thematically appropriate

[it's also one of her real-life fears, of course. it's been over a month, but even non-Retrospectres still notice her horns on the regular, and it's not easy to ignore all the weird looks and hushed giggles she gets. wouldn't it be super easy to demonize someone with horns like a demon? with strange, unearthly powers? wouldn't it be easy to dehumanize someone who's, quite literally, becoming less and less human? even a lot of her friends on the app joke and jape about her appearance, sometimes.]

fortunately theres no real life wizard to throw me under the bus huh :p
