1st TRUE STORY ♫ {VIDEO | ACTION}

[risette_truestory]

{ Once an idol, always an idol. It was Rise's day off and she decided to go to the arcade. The first thing she wanted to do was play the 'Dance Step Mania' Game. While she was in Tokyo back in her world, it had always been her favorite game and often disguised herself just to play it in peace.

The feed starts with Rise's introduction. She was winking and smiling to the camera. Once in a while, even blowing a kiss. She turned the camera and showed a very grouchy Lucemon. It looked like Rise had dragged him there. }

Good Morning, everyone! It's Rise and I am here at the arcade about to play a game called --- say it, Lucy!

Dance Step Mania ...

Say it with more life!

*sighs* DANCE STEP MANIA!!!

...

Close enough ... Now, let Rise amaze you!

{ Rise had Lucemon hold the camera towards her and began her first game. After selecting a song and setting it on basic first, she began to dance. It was an upbeat song and she was scoring very high. There was no sign of panting or hardship. Looks like she really was used to it. For her, this was no different from the dances she did as an idol. }

{ When the song ends she turns to the camera again and gives a deep bow. But she wasn't done. }

I was wondering if someone else out there knows how to play this game. If you do, why don't you come over and try to challenge me?

I warn you, I'm pretty good!

Tell me you're not challenging people while playing on Basic?

[risette_truestory]

Of course not. That was just a preview.

I am not stupid enough to show what I can really do before the competition began.

[scratchitti]

Fair enough. I might come down if I'm over there.

[innermonologues]

What is the point to this game?

[Video]

[risette_truestory]

To have fun of course!

[ Wasn't that obvious? ]

[Video]

[innermonologues]

People find hopping around on a little platform fun?

[video]

[velveteenmage]

...There's an arcade here?

[video]

[risette_truestory]

Yes! It's a little outdated, but it still has some of the best games.

You should give a few of them a try!

[video]

[velveteenmage]

I haven't played that many before. Actually, I've only ever tried one.

[video]

[for_granite]

[A low whistle of appreciation.] Nice. I've seen people play these, but never been good at them myself.

[video]

[risette_truestory]

Why don't you come over and give it a try, Terra. It will be fun.

I will be your Dance Step Mania Master!

[video]

[for_granite]

What? Me? Noooo... I'm sure you've got a whole buncha actually good challengers, no need for me to cramp your style.

[He didn't know there was an arcade here. Welp, there go his plans to explore the rest of the island, but it at least gives him something to do other than checking out Palette Town.]

Oh man, that was pretty cool. Where's the arcade at? I haven't played before, but I think I could be pretty good at it if I tried.

[video]

[risette_truestory]

It never hurts to try! It's in [ Insert directions here. ]

You came change the difficulty anyway. The basic isn't that bad and despite being a newbie you can probably do it.

Even if you don't get it the first time, practice makes perfect!

[video]

[palerapture]

Yeah, I'll probably keep mine on basic for a while till I get the hang of it. Heading out now, so we'll be there soon.

[As he says we, a Salamon jumps up onto his shoulder and half rests in the hood that's down.]

My name's John by the way, and this is Cam the Salamon.

Nice to meet you, Rise!

[sonati]

Sonata wants to play! Sonata will challenge Risette!

_{[idol vs illegal idol]}

[risette_truestory]

[ pigtailed idol vs. pigtailed idol. ]

Come on over then. Show me what Sona-chan the idol can do!

[sonati]

Sonata'll be right there!

_{[It doesn't take her too long to make it to the arcade. Penguinmon might be such a buzzkill, but Sonata figured out where the arcade and karaoke bar were soon enough.]}

Okay! I'm ready!

action; if this isn't okay let me know <3

[codes]

[ Challenge accepted.

Rin's there within minutes surprisingly and without even bothering to ask if she can join in, she's punching buttons at the arcade. Are those game menus? Everything moves too fast to tell what options she's actually choosing almost as though it was engraved in her mind. ]

You're ready to go again, aren't you?

[ Yes, the girl in heels is asking if she's still up for it. The selection rests on this song in particular. ]

action;

[risette_truestory]

[ OHO

It looked like this one wouldn't be an amateur or at least this might be someone who at least knew how to play the game. Rise just turned to Rin with a very smug look. ]

I am always ready.

[ Don't worry, Rin. Rise is wearing platforms. So this is a fair game.

When she saw the song though she grimaced a little. This song was different from the songs she liked. You could freestyle with it, but she really didn't know how. The genre wasn't the usual style she preferred for freestyle. So in the end, she didn't do much freestyle ... but she was getting all the arrows right. ]

[lastnerv]

Wow, that's pretty good.

Shinji, you should challenge her! You are a master of that type of game!

What? No! I don't know how to play them well, I just-

Don't be so modest, my partner! Oh, miss! Shinji Ikari will be answering your challenge!

Stop putting words in my mouth already!

[video]

[risette_truestory]

Oh, come on. It's just a little friendly competition. It won't hurt anyone.

If you really don't want to compete. Just come over anyway. It will be fun.

Ms. Rise, please be reminded that you are quite tired.

I am fine, Lucy. One more challenge won't hurt.

[He's covering Kokuwamon's mouth...hole...thingie to keep him quiet.]

You really wouldn't mind? I don't want to waste your time...

action since he's working at the arcade lmao

[chemistryinmotion]

[ Wally's been watching this entire time, clearly impressed. You work it, Rise. He gives her a full round of applause when she's done. ]

I'm pretty sure I'd fall on my face somehow if I tried to play, so I think I'll just watch. I don't think I'm supposed to play the games while I'm working, anyway.

action; hence why lucemon decided to be there.

[risette_truestory]

[ Normally, Rise would probably just smile and throw a VICTORY sign. She was feeling a little mischievous so she puts her arms around him and kissed him. It was easier now since the platform of the machine gave her extra height.

When she backed away, she grinned. ]

I don't suppose you're allowed to kiss your girlfriend while working either. How about just one game? Please?
