[OOC: Feel free to come and go, interact with either Anya or Ryo]
Hurried footsteps can be heard echoing from inside the hallway of the colosseum. The short-cropped white-streaked haired woman looked back to the opening of the hallway and sighed. She couldn’t help but worry for her partner. To think that he would forget the package back home. Turning her attention back to the small kiosk set-up they created just at the entrance of the colosseum, she couldn’t help but feel proud. It wasn’t the first time they did, but to perform in a large venue like the colosseum would just be the start for her good friend. She took a moment to glance at the monolithic structure’s centuries-old facade and felt a chill run down her spine. No way could she ever dream of being the center of everyone’s attention when the time comes, so he felt amazed that Shizuka agreed to undertake this.
In the past, the talented singer would perform in specific stages, locales, and sometimes in charity concerts but the venues weren’t as big as the colosseum. They were, how to say it… more intimate and held a semblance control. And even then, there were times when they had difficulties with the equipment and technical glitches that they could only miraculously fix on the spot. She dreaded if such a thing were to happen during such an important event such as what was about to come. So she took in a deep breath and glared at the colosseum before silently declaring her will that she and her partner would not be defeated and that they would make this a success.
“I’m back, Anya!” Called a voice that made the woman turn and look just in time for her partner to appear from the entrance of the hallway. Anya, as she was called, quickly went to help retrieve one of the boxes that was stacked on her partner’s arms and brought them to the desk without a moment’s waste.
“For a moment I thought I would have to punch you for leaving everything behind again. Geez, Ryo, you need to relax a bit more. Between the three of us, you seem the most anxious,” Anya teased as she began to open the box and put one heaps of flyers and posters ready on the desk of the kiosk.
“Me?! Anxious?! Hah! I’m fine,” answered the man called Ryo. He was a tall, lean-looking man with spiky blue hair, wearing a simple tee and baggy pants and boots. He placed the rest of the boxes inside the kiosk. “Rather than that, I’m more or less excited. Now, where is Little Mo? Did you contact him if he could help with the posters?”
“Huh? I thought you were gonna be the one to contact him?”
They looked at each other silently for a long time before dropping the topic knowing it would be too late now. Needless to say, they soon began to prepare the things around the kiosk, from flyers, posters, random merch and magazines, CDs, etc. It was already beginning to look perfect just as the sun finally rose to the sky to greet the long day ahead of them. Making a quick toast of their canisters as they finished their quick sandwich breakfast, the two looked determined more than ever.
“Okay, so you’ll handle the sales and the inquiries. I’ll go around place the posters before these place starts getting crowded with the daily peeps. Good luck. I’ll be back, babe,” said Ryo with a light peck to Anya’s head as he grabs a messenger bag filled with rolled posters and began running off. Anya couldn’t help but blush and wave as the man quickly left. She then sighed, psyched herself and looked at the prepared kiosk before glancing to the side where the posters hang.
