Party Hard & Rock Out

[Dubski]

Airi looked cordially at Hinoka, smiling at her as she spoke and laughing at a few of her comments. Then, she looked very curiously at the redhead and asked, "What do you mean that you saved her from the press?"

Mic Chick bit her lip for a moment before letting out a laugh and said, "She just means that I was being accosted by paparazzi and she gave me an out." Mic then winked at Airi and stated, "You know how it is, girl."

The marketing girl laughed, nodding as well and taking the hint. "Right, I know better than most." Airi then looked back to Hinoka and smiled, "But it's nice to meet you, Hinoka."

The rock star spoke up once more though and said, "Hey, want to post up an Insta for us?" Mic grinned broadly, wrapping both arms around Hinoka now.

Airi laughed. "Of course. I don't need to tell you to look good," she said, pulling up her phone.

"Of course not. Seduce that camera, Hinoka. Show it what you've got," said Mic excitedly. She would then pull her body up close to her redheaded friend's and then lift a leg up for Taiyo to grab while sticking out her pierced tongue in a rather photogenic manner.

Judging by Airi's reaction, Hinoka seemed to pull off the conversation quite well. Things are looking quite well for her at the moment, although some of the slang may be hard to understand. "Thanks it is also nice to meet you too, Airi." said Hinoka in response to the marketing girl's compliment.

Mic would then request an 'insta' to her confusion. "Insta what's that?" she said furrowing her eyebrow. Upon seeing Airi bring up her phone and the rockstar's later orders, Hinoka quickly assumed that a picture was next. "Sure I can do that." raising her arms shrugging. Mic held her a bit close but she would cope with it as the redhead made a simple smile in preparation. Before Airi would press the button, the blonde stretched her leg out expecting her date to hold it.

"Hey what are you doing?" Hinoka said jumping up a bit in confusion. She would accidentally snag on Mic's other leg tripping her. "Nonononono" the redhead stammered as the blonde fell forward bumping into her, causing both to fall to the ground in a heap. Hinoka raised her head to find Mic laying on top of her with their faces only inches apart. "...Sorry about that are you OK?" said Hinoka sounding more nervous than ever. This was a strange sort of pin.

As Mic was ready for her sexy pose with her date, she suddenly felt her only planted leg being tangled up in Hinoka's and looked concerned for a moment as their bodies attempted to balance before they landed in a heap! Airi immediately began busting out in laughter, having lowered the phone as she watched the two girls. Then, she spoke up between manic giggles and said, "What the hell happened?"

Mic Chick, herself, was laughing as well as she pulled Hinoka over in an embrace and waved at Airi to still take the picture. "Red... you klutz... just smile!" she mustered before laughing all over again, laying with Hinoka and throwing a middle finger at the camera while Airi continued to laugh and held up her phone again, ready to snap the picture.

Hinoka thought that Mic would hate her after messing up the photo like that. "Hey you need help getting up?" she said sounding concerned. To her surprise and relief, the rocker was quite amused by the situation. Even stranger was the blonde requesting for the photo to be taken despite the two laying on the floor. "Shouldn't we stand up first?" she said sounding rather confused. Shortly after Mic hugged her, causing Hinoka to relax as she took a deep breath. The warm embrace was quite soothing to say the least.

"OK..." the redhead whispered feeling more comfortable about the situation. She didn't want to question Mic's strange logic any further, so she looked at the phone gave a small and sheepish smile, awaiting for the picture to be taken. Knowing Mic's popularity, this picture could spread around the internet. Hopefully, Hinoka wouldn't have to deal with hundreds of 'fans' at her doorstep.

Lifting her leg up in the air for the picture too, Mic did her best to sex it up even if it was a rather silly predicament they were in. Then, Mic peeled herself from Hinoka and began to stand before helping her date up. "Alright, you better have looked freaking incredible in that picture, Red Hot," said the rock star, brushing herself off.

Airi was still giggling as she fiddled with her phone. "Mic Chick making an appearance with her Red Hot date Hinoka Taiyo... Perfect." She smiled at the pair and showed off the picture, making Mic laugh all over again. "And it's on The 'Gram."

"The 'Grammmmm..." joked Mic, clearly having a report with Airi. "Anyway, we got people to smooz with."

"And so do I, Miss Chick," replied Airi, giving the couple a wave. "And it was nice to meet you. Maybe I'll see you back in there."

And with that, Mic Chick kept smiling until adopting a more serious face, slinging her arm around Hinoka and taking her a bit away from the party. "Okay, so... I have to lay another ground rule on you, okay?"

[SwordSavior1]

Hinoka was feeling a little sore from the landing so she wasn't sure if the smile would any longer. After the picture was taken, both girls would be back on her feet. "Yeah, after falling onto my back I should make sure my face LOOKS good than feel good." said Hinoka wiping off some dust while rolling her eyes.

Airi showed them her phone to see if the results were favourable. The picture was clearly showing the two in a compromising position with Mic being rather expressive in her body language. It was an unusual image to the least; Hopefully the next one will be painless.

With all slang being exchanged, Hinoka probably needed a notebook at this point. As Airi would take her leave, the redhead would wave back. "Bye, see you soon!" she called out as the marketing girl disappeared from view.

Only after Airi was completely gone that Hinoka realised her mistake. "Dang it! I should have asked for her number..." she remarked sulking a little. She had little time to make further complaints as Mic directed her attention. "Sure, what is the next rule of partying?" she asked sounding half-interested.

[Dubski]

"Yeah, yeah. You can get her number later. She'll be around. Just say something about her legs," said Mic, continuing to direct Hinoka over away from the crowd. She then took a deep breath, turning and taking her by the shoulders to level with her. "Alright, so the other rule. You need to think about what you want people to know about you, and what can be used against you."

The rocker put a hand to her own chest and said, "For instance, I don't want nor need people to know I am routinely dodging the paparazzi. Because if they know that, it can blow out of proportion, meaning people could think I'm hiding something, or I am just a stone cold bitch, or I might be snubbing my fans..." She then closed her eyes and shook her head. "All nonsense. But they'll take any snippet of truth to try and turn something into something it's not. Fortunately, my girl Airi won't try to take advantage of that. We're cool like that. But think about what can easily be used against you."

Heaving a deep sigh, Mic gave Hinoka a hug and then said, "Sorry, you're here to have fun. We'll have fun, babe," said the blonde, taking a moment to give Hinoka's ass a slap before turning and taking her hand, moving towards the entrance of the building. "Come on. I need a drink."

[SwordSavior1]

Next on Hinoka's weird things to do list: Compliment a girl about their legs and hope to get their phone number while not getting arrested. The next bit of advice made sense. Make sure people had a high opinion of her and try to keep any dirt away from others. It was a cruel world out there, some journalists would take whatever video or message they see and alter it to fit their narrative.

Hinoka was a klutz and wasn't that fashion savvy, but thankfully Mic was there to make the save. Imagine what would have happened if the rocker wasn't there to back her up? "OK, I promise I won't look like a total fool. Just tell me things I shouldn't talk about you first" replied the redhead. This was getting a bit confusing, because at first she was recommended to put the blonde under the bus for the sake of interactions.

"I can't believe parties are this stressful...Hey!" commented Hinoka as she was hugged, before shaking after getting slap in the rear. Before she could speak up to protest, Mic took her hand to where they would take a drink. "I don't think she needs one. She already acts like she is drunk" thought the redhead rolling her eyes.

[Dubski]

Mic Chick had snickered at Hinoka exclaiming at her slapping her ass. This girl seriously needed to let loose. All the more reason to get her a damn drink. As the rock star walked with the redhead, she spoke up and said, "So, here's how you figure out what you can say about me. If you think it will directly hurt my career in terms of making me seem like someone who is shirking any of her professional duties, just don't discuss it. If it has to do with business, just don't bring it up. If it includes media, also don't bring it up. Just leave it be and stick to stuff that doesn't matter, alright?"

The blonde thought on that for a moment as she walked up to the building and stopped, looking over at Hinoka. "But otherwise, bring up whatever you want. Tell people I'm horribly eccentric if you want. Tell them I'm a weirdo who had very specific conditions for you coming here. Tell them I'm a bad kisser. Whatever you want. Just leave the business out of it, you dig?" explained Mic, offering a mild smile to Hinoka before escorting her into the entrance of the banquet hall where loud music boomed through the entire building.

Bright lights lit up the otherwise dark building and accented the party music. People were socializing and dancing all throughout the immediate area, with most women there dressed in a manner that Mic had tried to prepare Hinoka for. After allowing Hinoka a moment to take it all in, she grinned at the girl and said in a loud voice to speak over the music and people talking, "Cool, huh?" she would then try to help Hinoka push through the crowd to try and get to the bar.

[SwordSavior1]

All Hinoka understood that she shouldn't say anything that could harm Mic's status as a musician. At this point, a standard university lecture would be less complicated than what blonde is listing what to do or not do. "So outside of business, I should tell the others the truth. I guess I dig..." she remarked before saying the last part in a confused tone. Was the rocker aware of her flaws or was it some strange coincidence? Although Hinoka did not know whether Mic was a good kisser or not.

A minute later, The two finally made their way into the banquet hall. Hinoka was fascinated by the assortment of colours and outfits in front of her. She hoped that Mic wouldn't get the crazy idea and suggest the redhead to dance, because that is one thing Hinoka can't do well at all. It came to her mind that she came here to make more connections, so there will be a point where the redhead had to step up and talk to a fellow partygoer. Due to being busy absorbing the scene, she had a delayed response to Mic's query. "Oh it is sort of cool." she replied while shrugging. After some bumping and jeers from the other guests, they reached the bar.

The bartender would direct his attention to them. "What can I get for you two ladies?" he asked. Hinoka looked at the options available and was unsure what to drink. She didn't want to drink anything too strong or weak so she decided until her friend would make a choice. "I guess I will have what she is having..." said Hinoka hoping that the rocker didn't choose anything expensive.
