From: Apollo
Date: March 22nd

CelePara Prince Hour!



[ The screen goes black for a second, then is filled with a logo declaring this broadcast something from "MPriM Pictures". The logo is a goat in an oval picture frame. Lifting its head, it bleats.

This is going to be good. ]



[ We cut to shaky-cam first-person footage of someone running through the streets of what looks like an old Japanese village. The runner's breathing can be heard - ragged, desperate, and somehow huskily attractive.

"After him!" shout voices behind the running figure, who dodges an extremely strange-looking cow that happened to be in the frame for no good reason. "There's nothing left for him now!" ]



[ Sparkles fly as swords meet in midair. A silver-haired swordsman fights with a blue-haired one with a ponytail as a dog barks somewhere. Then we see the silver-haired swordsman holding onto a small blonde girl as she coughs, a conflicted look on "his" face. Brief shot of a small girl with brown hair looking on worriedly.

You should all know the voice in this voiceover. It's the only voice you ever need to memorize. ]

If what I hold dear in my heart is all that remains to me.....any dance is worth the struggle! I'll become a thief or even a villain!



[ The swordsman whirls, surprised, as a mask is cut from a female ninja's face. Red curls spill out, and auburn eyes blink at "him", then harden before charging. The two fight, though it looks more like dance choreography. ]

The fields of our love lie fallow, but I won't turn back! The path I've decided to blaze will never waver!



[ Rapid cuts. Familiar faces from the Far Shore scroll by, all acting various parts - with the odd exception that all the female roles in these scenes seem to be swooning over the lead character, and that cow from earlier (which is a little lumpy, come to think of it, as if it isn't a real cow at all but two people in a cow suit on a mission) keeps popping up in almost every scene, unable to to be edited around. ]



[ The swordsman fights and scowls and suffers, beaten down but never defeated. Raising "his" sword, he throws back his head and howls. ]

THIS IS MY REVOLUTION!!

[ SUDDEN CUT TO BLACK. THEN LETTERS. ]



[ "March 27, 2017", says smaller text as it appears in this text's wake.

"One-Time Screening Only

Temple of Apollo

Special Performance After The Show"

And we go back to the samurai, music swelling behind him as if he's about to start singing. He twirls his sword, prepares for battle. ]

Now, the curtain rises on the golden age!



[ Thirty seconds later, a small purple stuffed goat toy with a silver platter attached to the platform it uses to wheel around will bump into your front door by way of knocking. It will have an envelope on the platter, containing enough tickets for your entire temple entourage.

How good your seats are....depends on how much Hibiki likes you.

Look forward to it. ]

[badassfreakingoverlord]

[Three Prinnies dance and hop circles around the Overlord, chanting 'are we going are we going are we going' like kids committed to getting a pool. Zetta, for his part, seems more baffled than anything.]

I can understand giving me a seat behind a pillar that's itself behind every tall person in the Far Shore, and I can understand describing it in immense detail on the ticket, but how the hell did she make a combination toiler and paper shredder that can also function while filled with acid and on fire?

[priforprince]

[ The goat cannot answer with words, lacking a mouth or a voice box.

But since it was asked a question, it spins in a circle, leaking purple sparkles behind it. Maa-ster is a genius! That is how!

Isn't she cool? ]

[badassfreakingoverlord]

[The Prinnies also begin spinning in place, flippers above their heads.]

[Zetta wonders what his life has become.]

[sageprincess]

You have my temple's thanks for the generous offer of, ah... "ViPri" seating.

[She's not sure what that is, but Minako and Natsuru are probably going to be swooning for a while, aren't they.]

Does the revolution have an expected dress code?

[priforprince]

[ Minako for sure. Natsuru is going to be onstage for the Special Performance After The Show, so she'd better keep it together until then.

This call is worthy of response, so the Prince deigns to appear. ] That's at your discretion. Putting your finest foot forward, however, would be best.

[ Hibiki smiles the smile she uses when she's up to something. ] We'll be greeting some lavishly special guests.

[smilingbullet]

Ooh, seems like we might have a lot of screentime.

[ "We" being the bulky cow. ]

[priforprince]

Does that please you?

[ You certainly worked hard enough for it.

Which Hibiki will never acknowledge.

But she has tired bags under her eyes from failed all-nighter editing sessions. ]

[smilingbullet]

Of course. You didn't plan for all of it after all.

[ There were only certain scenes that the cow was meant to appear in. Not that many. Far from that many. ]

[myblueskies]

Wow miss Hibiki! Is this your movie?? I can't wait to see it!!

[He's been excited about this ever since she had told him about it, it wouldn't be long before he could go and see his first ever movie!]

[priforprince]

Your goddess will be in the show at the end. Don't avert your eyes for a moment.

[ And then, when everyone's hearts are shining in response to her majesty - PriPara will descend! To cleanse this puniverse!

THIS IS SUCH A SUPERIOR PLAN ]

[unlucky7]

[...All things considered, she looks pretty badass as a bodyguard. Even if she's swooning over Hibiki's character.]

Thank you for the tickets. Can't wait.

[priforprince]

May our paths next cross in the magnificence of PriPara.

[ Which you helped bring about, by....cooperating with the movie. Thus, you have a great seat!

So does your god, but well, he's a God of Fortune. He would. ]

[trustheart]

I promised I'd be less antagonistic to you so I'll try to give you my honest opinion without crossing a line:

That sure is a movie promo. I like the goat logo.

[priforprince]

Do prepare yourself.

I plan on stealing away your everything.

[holygrailed]

[Irisviel is delighted. A movie showing? Here? How exciting!]

My, what a spectacular sight! I did not know you were a writer and director too!

[Actor is pretty easy to guess.]

[priforprince]

My talents are multivaried. Like the prismatic gleam of a diamond, held up to the light.

They're every bit as enthralling, as well.

[cloakedinruins]

[ Shen Wei scoffs at the fight scenes because that is sure not fighting even stage fighting has less dance moves in it. He is going to be polite when the tickets show up, mainly because he sees no reason to act otherwise. ]

Thank you for the tickets.

[priforprince]

You're most welcome.

Consider yourselves fortunate your first contact with my radiance will be my piece de resistance.

[beyondtheblade]

Huh.

I feel sorry I missed your production of this.

[Because she WOULD.]

[priforprince]

Never fear.

A far grander stage awaits upon its screening.

[ And the show afterwards. Which you will surely agree to be a part of. In time. Absolutely.

Yes. ]

[replicatedform]

[It's a good thing that by this time, he got a new god and name. So putting aside that festival business, he's calmed down and doing his best to move on.

Which means, Yamanbagiri Kunihiro is back to "normal" when he see this... promotion.]

Thanks for the ticket. I've been wondering when you release details for this.

[... Actually, how did Hibiki knows he's at Lugh's Temple now??]

[priforprince]

[ Hey, the little robot goats aren't in practically every thread now only for humor value. Hibiki is a Prince of opposites: she dislikes most people, but she's also nosy as hell.

That said, what a gratifying thing to be told...Not an unexpected reaction - how could anyone help but await a ticket to Hibiki's show? - but pleasing to confirm, all the same. ]

Not to worry. Your longing shall soon be rewarded.

thanks for the tickets, lady! boss said we can go, so we'll be there 2 watch! :)

♡ ev

1/2 ♔ action

[priforprince]

[ "♡ ev"?

Ah. One of the servants. Hibiki considers this for a moment.

Then drops the phone on the closest spygoat's waiting silver platter tray. ] It's for you.

2/2 ♔ text

[priforprince]

[ This makes the spygoat very happy, but it can't type, so it rolls off in search of someone who can.

And it finds Rosalie the cat, who manages to both.....type....a thing....AND accidentally take a selfie that's half cat beans, half as many goats as can fit crowded around the phone. A text for them! A TEXT FOR THEM!

How exciting. ]
