WHAT || CHAPTER ONE FINALE: Rafael Giovanni & Finnick's televised international concert debut
WHERE || A music hall in Chicago, IL
WHEN || July 3rd, 2013 [ forward dated]
HOW || Actionspam

The hour is finally upon our heroes, to learn whether their crazy plan to invest in making Finnick and Rafael international superstars under Burt Becksworth's management will pay off, and keep control of NOVA Records out of the hands of Chad Becksworth and his sinister compatriots. Now, as the Knights finish taking their seats in the balconies directly overlooking the stage, the concert goes live, broadcasting around the world, to where even other members of the Knighthood in London can gather to watch.

The camera pans across the endless sea of gathered, curious fans, who shake their arms wildly for their two seconds of fame, and then zooms in on a blonde figure on one corner of the stage, where she stands ready with a microphone: Buffy Summers.

[ the action of this post will be continually propelled by the interspersed musical numbers performed by finnick and rafael. each musical number will be up for a short amount of ooc time, in which players are free to create mini-thread responses directly to that song comment. these can be for internal reflection, to make commentary to the neighbors seated in their rows, for backstage convos for those involved in the program, or for 'host' commentary between some songs by archer and kat. threads that result from these responses should be kept short and sweet, as each song is only 3 to 5 minutes long, which doesn't leave a lot of time for in depth conversations. ideally, by the time the next 'number' is posted (as a direct response to the last musical number comment), your response threads from the previous number should be considered over and done with, and you can continue anything going on in them as a new mini-thread under the most recently posted song. in order to keep track of when things are rolling on to the next song, I highly encourage everyone to please track this entire post. ]

...I hope he calls you Katie again.

I'm seriously dying out there. This hostess shit is not my thing.

[graveflowers]

I would say just stop or trade, but Burt might die. [Which is probably bad.]

[shootfirst]

I am so beyond caring what Burt Becksworth wants or needs. The boys have in this bag, I've done my time, I just want out.

[ she latches onto vi's sleeve ] Will you tag in for me?

[graveflowers]

[She stares at Kat for a second because no. No she meant trade with anyone else. Especially someone not likely to punch Archer for their own personal amusement.

But then she shrugs her jacket off and tugs her hair out of its messy updo so its a mess of curls instead.]

I better be getting knighted the second we get home.

[She tugs the hem of her dress up a couple inches, she needs the distraction of her kick ass legs so people won't focus of what she actually says, and makes a sort of grabby hands motion for the mic. So lucky she likes you, Kat. So lucky.]

[shootfirst]

Are you kidding? For this, I'll see you're Knighted twice. [ she presses the mic into vi's hands with relief ]

[graveflowers]

Hrmph. I'd like a pet, too. Keep an eye on Mark.

[She takes mic the and stomps off to stand next to Archer on the stage with the opening line of:] Hmm, I wonder what that song meant. I just love metaphors.

[But with her nat 20 charisma -- mark it down, ain't never gonna happen again -- I guess she is just damn endearing and everyone loves her.]
