It had been difficult, getting together his first concert in Isola. With his bank account at a paltry zero, he had once again was forced to rely on the conviction of his character. And, to no one’s surprise, it had paid off with shocking dividends.
Standing there on the stage, he felt quite proud of his boldness even if the contract had seemed unbalanced in his favor. Even an uncaring universe could still feel fit to sling a stitch at him now and then, this particular annoyance appearing in the form of a green haired rabbit.
“Who let you in here?” he asked before registering the broom a moment later. Some kind of designer hoverboard. DJSS reached out a hand to snatch a clipboard from a passing techie, looking down at the nonexistent list of those who had purchased the Deluxe Pass. It was disastrously difficult to spread word of his brilliance, a bit like when they had first started out.
But there was no time for memories. He, DJ Subatomic Supernova, had a show to perform.
Shoving the clipboard away at random, DJSS lowered his headphones to better tell her off. “I’ve never head of a performer by that name. The only one performing tonight is me, DJ Subatomic Supernova.” Robbed of ambient silence the noise of the surrounding world pressed in on all sides; a churning staccato note of equipment scraping across the floor or the high pitch of moving bodies around him.
“If that is your only question, I have to ask you to leave.” Placing a cursory rub to his orb, DJSS used his other hand to try and wave the child, rabbit?, away. “Feel free to come back during the concert, provided you buy a ticket. I can’t just release my music for free you know.”
Peridot narrows her eyes at the question. Who does this guy think he is?!
“Nobody let me in here,” Peridot replies. “Nobody lets me anywhere. I’m a nefarious villain - I go wherever I want, whenever I want.”
“And if you’re going to be rude,” Peridot says, “then I’m not going anywhere.”
She flies around in front of him, putting her chin in her hands.
“Looks like you’re just gonna have to put up with li’l ol’ Peridot.”
