The Nexus was what originally had drawn Luna here. Luna was thankful, at first; a contest like this may have drawn the attention of Diana (or Artemis, but Luna was less willing to entertain that option). Thick, dark hair was tied up in a braided bun.

Despite her protests, sunglasses, coat, and the tie holding her hair back were all pulled off her as she stumbled onto the stage. Hair fell behind her in thick waves, the crowd 'ooh'ing as the pretty lady took the stage. Luna felt her cheeks color as she straightened up the best she could, folding her hands in front of her. Well, she was up here now...
Luna exhaled, visibly relaxing. The moon on her forehead slowly reappeared. Keeping it hidden meant suppressing her aura, a task which Luna always found tiring. "You were always the smartest though," she finally replied with a small grin.
Luna should totally take advantage of herself and steal a disguise item. Makes things so much easier. Ami almost grins at the private thought, but she suppresses it in time. Still, it's sort of fun to play around like this and she can't help what she says next.
"It's fine," Ami tells Luna. "I just wanted to make this event more fun for me." She can play the role of host and judge, but it'd be too inane, for her, if this were just about looks and talent.
