retrospec | 001 ♣ text, action

So! I figured I'd use Retrospec for something productive today. Tomorrow is Valentine's Day! Papa's latest movie comes out on DVD tomorrow, which means MY latest movie comes out on DVD tomorrow. It's called "At the End of a Song". And to promote it, Papa and I will be doing a signing event at the big video store in Tisse - I know it's normally more a thing for books, but it should still be fun! Come down and see us tomorrow afternoon. [Shortly after this message goes up, a link to an IMDb page for said movie is added quietly.]

[action | 2/14, afternoon]
[True to her word, Alicia can be found at a table in the movie and music place in Tisse with her father and a few other folks, along with a large stack of Blu-Rays on a table next to them and a big poster on an easel. The crowd seems... relatively small, which is fine given it's not exactly a big-ticket release, but Alicia's excited and upbeat all the same, wearing a cream-colored dress markedly similar to one her character wore in the movie. She's doing her very best not to get distracted, given one of the studio people is also here: she greets people as they come over, carefully doesn't pull too much attention from the rest of the store, and generally remains a ball of energy.

When someone swings by, she turns a megawatt smile toward them.]

Hi, thanks for coming down! I'm so excited to be able to share At the End of a Song with more people - did you see it when it was in the theater?

[...perhaps a little too enthuastic, mind, but she's working hard. That's worth something, right?]

[Okay, so.

By all rights, Maya doesn't have to do this. She has Alicia's number. She ... thinks they're friends? PERHAPS??? Even if she hasn't used it in several days, she's been weirding herself out with her own vision of ... a slumber party? And Alicia was there! Along with other girls, at least two of which she's met elsewhere in Recolle. So, she's been a little squirrely.

Yet, there she is, in line, excitedly clutching a Blu-ray in hand.

Is it the greatest movie ever? Well, no. But Maya is a sucker and a romantic, two things that don't help when being drawn into something like that. Plus, she knew one of the stars! The daughter of the director, at that!

So in spite of not having to stand in line to do this, she is anyway. It's for support! And atmosphere! You can't get that just by calling her up personally and asking for it, gosh. So she waits patiently, or not so patiently, up until it's her turn.]

Aliciaaaaaaaaa~! Hi!

wuoh! that's so cool!!
i'll be too busy to go but hey?! hope you have a great time at the signing!

you're really a movie star.
weird memories or not, this app is kind of cool

THAT'S where I knew your name from!

[Truth be told, At the End of a Song wasn't really Rachel's thing. Rachel's primary interests were the kind of fiction that was more "fantastic", as it were. But... well, she hoped she and Alicia were friends now, so she felt it was important she show her new friend her support.

Which is why she was waiting in line for the autograph signing. Truth me told, she felt a little self conscious. Having a famous actress as a new friend was one thing, but that fact being evident in front of people... well, needless to say, Rachel was rather nervous.

Something she tried her best to hide when she finally reached the front of the line.]

H-Hello, Alicia! Uhm... I never saw it in theaters, but I'm really eager to see it for the first time!
