in which everyone wants to kill rhinestone for crap he didn't do

[blizzard10jouin]

[Rhinestone is holding a bit of an impromptu concert in the lobby. He's sitting on a ledge about five feet up and blissfully performing a variety of ukulele-based love songs. A gaggle of NPC fangirls is watching him in infatuated awe.

Little does he know that there are at least three people who want to kill someone who looks pretty much exactly like

[It's been so long since he's heard such sweet melodious sounds~!]

[He sliiiiiiiides into the crowd of fangirls, causing a few of them to squeal for a few different reasons.

He claps eagerly when the set is over, probably sticking out from the fangirls like a sore thumb since he's taller and purple-er than any of them. NOT TO MENTION HIS HAT.]

[blizzard10jouin]

[oh god that hat may be too gaudy even for him.]

Whoa.

Hi, me!

[lovepimp]

[Not to mention the pink feather boa.]

Hello~!

[Like most Fubukae, he has acclimated to the DR quite quickly. And so far he's evaded a dragon and a vampire, so he's feeling pretty cocky.]

I haven't even seen an ukulele in forever!

[OH GOD WHAT HORRIBLE SAD UNIVERSE IS HE FROM.]

[blizzardtenjoin]

You haven't?

[He hops off the ledge and wades through the fangirls to get to his double.]

You poor, poor soul! What could possibly have deprived you of such a wonderful instrument for so long!

[lovepimp]

[He sighs, nodding sadly.]

Oh, you know. I've just been so busy with work!

[TOO BUSY STRUMMING OTHER THINGS.]

[blizzard10jouin]

What sort of horrible profession allows no time for ukuleles? I can't imagine taking such a job!

[lovepimp]

Oh, it's not that! I love my job!

I'm what you'd call..

A talent scout!

[He dips his hat slightly. But he can't help but check himself out at least a little. WHAT A HANDSOME DEVIL.]

[blizzard10jouin]

Oooh, what sort of talent scout?

[He looks almost like an eager child - he's clasping his hands in front of him and giving Sardonyx a wide-eyed smile.]

[lovepimp]

[He is loving all of these more-innocent universes. Well, as far as he knows, anyway.]

I look for talented entertainers willing to perform for very~ small venues.

[Usually an audience of one, in fact. ...but not always.]

You know, more... intimate settings!

You know, like bars and small restaurants and strip clubs! They need live entertainment, too!

What's wrong?

[blizzard10jouin]

[...Phew.]

I apologize, good sir. I believe my imagination and your hat were running away with me.

[He shakes his head, strumming a dischordant set of notes on his ukulele.]

[lovepimp]

Oh, this?

[He takes it off, grinning.]

I had to get something to go with the boa!

[OH. THAT EXPLAINS EVERYTHING.]

[thunderkind]

[Rainbow finally manages to fight his way out of the throng of fangirls that have gathered, muttering and brushing himself.]

Shish--

...

[oh god there's two of them again

wait

one of them's missing boobs.

Manjoume is disappoint.

but not that much.]
