plotted starter with @withsorrowandregret | Minamoto Teru & Arima Kana
❝ Minamoto Teru! ❞ Kana called his name, once having seen him wandering the hallways alone. A bit unexpected was her sudden approach, considering they hadn't spoken many times before even if being in the same class — better say none at all, but when witnessing a rising star, a flickering new-sprung flame, she couldn't help her urge to get closer, in hopes one day she could reflect his light. Selfish were her reasons, just like the kind of industry they had stepped in.
❝ I saw your performance. It was impressive for an up-and-coming actor. ❞ Said Arima Kana, once famous child actor prodigy, a star that was never meant to shine for too long. ❝ Especially the way you swung your sword. I've seen many professionals fail at being natural in battle scenes. ❞ The truth was, this seemed to be the most excelling part of his acting skills. Even though he was much better than the average actor of their age, his emotional acting was lacking in her trained eye, watching him up close confirmed her assumptions. He carried a distant aura, one delivered even to the scene. Yet this was no weakness of his, not for the career he had chosen. His looks were outstanding, and along with his attitude — a pretty face that'd make one's heart race, yet so out of reach — was one of the reasons that'd make him popular. One of the reasons he was going to succeed.
❝ How did you do it? Did you take any classes? ❞

seeing everyone just mindlessly sign up for threads despite all the clear warning signs feels like I’m living in Sailor Moon or a magical girl anime episode where the Monster of the Day just set up shop over night and their product is literally draining your lifeforce for the Dark Kingdom but people keep going there

Being the only guy who works in a beauty store is fucking hilarious sometimes. Im the only one who can sell our shitty beard shampoo and a not insignificant amount of our customers think im untrustworthy. According to my coworkers i use every mens product we have so they can get dudes to buy a shaving cream. Trying to explain to people that theres no difference between "men's" and "women's" products is like talking to a brick wall. Ive had multiple women get angry with me for sampling them out one of our "men's" moisturizers when they specifically said they wanted a mattifying one to control oil and that's the best one we have for those two things. I still think about the guy who came in asking if we had "masks for men." I contemplate ending it all every time someone returns a completely unused product that they absolutely refuse to try just because it either says or doesnt say "for men" on it. 90% of the time its the perfect product for them. I had a lady who was willing to buy a worse product for her needs that was more expensive just so it wouldnt say it was for men. Are you ever tired? Are you ever exhausted? These are the same kinds of people who say that im the one whos obsessed with gendering everything because im trans.
