Hey.

Just tried to find the last thread in the archive - no sign. So I don't know exactly where we were

>>22507150
Uh... I don´t think I forgot to archive it...

Anyway, we called Aura over to our office to talk with her about the show. She showed up in a innocent looking, short white summer dress and with her hair in a neat ponytail behind her.

We talked about the show and she said she would make it interesting. And that´s it.

Oh and I asked if there is any famous swimsuit brand, like how Victoria´s Secret is famous for underwear, since she said she would probably live in underwear and swimsuits in the penthouse, thanks to the large pool/Jacuzzi in it. I thought it would be a good chance for, you know, advertising

>>22507198
According to Wikipedia, Victoria's secret makes swimwear.

>>22507244
I honestly had no idea.
Hold on looking it up

>>22507244
Alright, found it, but honestly doesn´t looks that special to me. Then again I basically grew up on the beach

>>22507308
I think they're just cashing in on their brand name. I mean, there is a limit to how much more you can sexualize a bikini.

>>22507342
Well, from what I found, they are specialized in "wonder bikini" doing the same as the wonder bra for flat boards everywhere. They advertise it will "give two cup sizes" to anyone.

Looking for just brands, holy crap 400+ dollars for a bikini? makes me think of that bikini made of gems in DOAX

Anyway.
*********

Aura: "So have you considered maybe arranging some endorsement or advertising deals for me, Ned?"

Bah I´m a retard. Like I said I grew up on a beach city and didin´t remember MAUI as a swimsuit brand. Hell it was everywhere as I grew up.

>>22507395
Well, given the nature of your abilities, I think that several perfume companies be very interested in you as a spokesmen. Also, there is the rest of the fashion industry, shoe companies, clothing companies, Victoria's Secret, swimwear companies and the like. Also possibly some in the jewelry industry as well

>>22507489
Aura: "I like the sound of that. Do you have someone in mind?"

Roll business, as usual it would be 11d10, or 12d10 for positioning or merchandising. Do you want to arrange a meeting between her and possible sponsors, or do you just arrange everything yourself?

Rolled 2, 10, 3, 5, 6, 6, 10, 3, 4, 9, 8 = 66

>>22507526
I think Positioning for the Perfume, marketing for the rest. Rolling one of them

Rolled 10, 10, 4, 2, 3, 8, 1, 4, 7, 5, 2, 2 = 58

>>22507555

Rolling the other, in case

Rolled 7, 1 = 8

>>22507555
exploding dice!

Rolled 7, 4 = 11

>>22507555
>>22507606
Alright so seven successes for the perfume, which is very good. And Im rolling the exploding dice for the other roll

>>22507622
Alright so 8 successes on the other roll. I guess we are using that one for generic merchandising, like underwear or swimsuits (on that note my goddamn swimming trunks are MAUI, now I feel even worse).

You talk with Aura and make several calls, arranging for her to work with various brands of underwear, swimwear and perfumes. It is a very productive morning.

Of course, almost every one of those companies want her to do a photo shoot or commercial for them, which she seems quite alright with.

Do you want her to spend time doing photo shoots and commercials, or have her training? Either way, this meeting eats your morning.

Are you having lunch at the cafeteria here at the XWF, ordering delivery, or going somewhere else for lunch? On the evening, you still need to check the status of the penthouse and the crew that will shoot the show, as well as help the fighters move in.

We are using our silvers and the utopians right?

>>22507658
Lunch at the Cafeteria, we should probably see how paladin is doing.

>>22507765
If you look around for him, you spot him sitting with Ami by the western exit. They are having macaroni, several helpings of it. It looks like they are just talking.

Cook: "Ah, mister Salter, do you want the house special, or would you want something from the buffet bar?"

>>22507658

Promo for now, we can send her to Mai once her profile is higher

Yes to the Silvers and Utopians being in the show

>>22507803

Best not interrupt them. House Special sounds good to me.

>>22507919
Later, that evening

Aritsu: "Sir, the film crew called from the penthouse. They say they are ready, except for needing a special permit to place cameras in the bathrooms and bedrooms."

>>22507974
..Shouldn't legal have taken care of that? That's their job. Anyway, get the details and then call them.

>>22507974

"They do? I thought Legal dealt with that... Well, let's get the paperwork for that in motion, and run with the cameras we have, for now. The first episodes are a pilot, they may never even see the light of day."

>>22508022
>>22508023
No, what I meant was, they need the permit of the people who would be filmed. Are we going with shower and maybe bedroom scenes?

>>22508056
I guess? It's not really my project.

>>22508082
Well, Aura said she was not going to do any actual frontal nudity, so the cameras would need to be very strategically placed. Maybe using foggy glass for the showers?

>>22508056

Not yet, IMO. We have the option to do so later if we want/need/are ordered to by a pervert CEO.

>>22508116
True, and the rest of the fighters need to be comfortable as well. So well placed camera's, strategically placed ducks, things like that. That reminds me we sent over some people to Mai's how yesterday and today right? Also, we should review the silver division roster. since we really should arrange fights for them

>>22508164
Alright, let´s see. We have a girl that´s in it solely for the money, a guy that wants to pay his college loans, a guy hat sees no other work options, and one that just wants to appear on tv.

As for the silvers. I think I can just roll the dice and let you know how their fights go? I dont really see a need to play every fight, only those of our "main characters" so to speak. Or those we are just most interested in.

Roll 11d10 to convince Okaba to let us place cameras in his private rooms (bathroom, bedroom). Michael also will need convincing so roll for him too.

The videogame has been out for a couple of weeks now, and has been a great success.

Should we stop for today and tomorrow finally have Ami vs Equitas?

>>22508260
Im thinking in having their match, and probably having Aura vs Kodiak as well. Then a week of work and finally the Big in Japan event. Which I just realized probably should have some japanese fighters as well

Rolled 5, 1, 8, 3, 8, 1, 1, 2, 3, 9, 2 = 43

>>22508260
rolling for Okaba

Rolled 3, 10, 9, 1, 2, 3, 5, 5, 3, 10, 6 = 57

>>22508260
and Michael

Rolled 1, 7, 8, 10, 3, 7, 1, 1, 5, 2, 1 = 46

>>22508260

Rolling for their fights is fine. We plan to try and book them a win or two which wouldn't need rolling for; We have a Job Squad for a reason...

Rolling to convince, even though we don't plan to use the footage initially.

Does the 11 dice include Persuader Enhancement bonus?

Rolled 9, 5 = 14

>>22508352
rolling explosions.

Oh... And did we decide Ned was going to turn up at the Fighters' Xmas party?

>>22508343
4 successes.
He´s reticent, but agrees as long as you let him check any of that footage before using it. He also asks you to let him check on any of Aura´s you want to use.

>>22508352
6 successes
You convince michael without problem as long as you assure him the images will be tastefully censored by shooting waist up and only family friendly scenes.

Luckily, novas tend to be superhumanly handsome, even with bed hair, so it doesnt seems to be a problem to film them waking up.

Aura does sleep on the nude, tho (and absolutely noone is surprised finding that out, I bet) so the bedroom shoots are gonna have to be watched carefully to keep it safe.

>>22508418
IIRC, he´s going to send a lot of booze and food, but he is not going to go unless invited. I suspect Brass will invite him, tho. Are you taking Mai again?

>>22508423
Yes. To troll or not to troll, that is the question. The Bomber lord that is.

>>22508460
I can see Ned smoking in front of him, true.
Anyway, lets end here for today. I need to continue job hunting. See you tomorrow guys

>>22508423

We agree to Okaba's terms

The "care package" was for the office workers' party, not the fighters' one.

We shall take Mai if she'd like to go, otherwise Ned can go 'stag'

>>22508460

>Trololololol
>Lololol Lololol
>Trololololol


But let 's save that for tomorrow

>>22508655
>>22508630
I have a sudden desire for fireworks displays.

>>22508783

Quick, someone get the X-Men's Jubilee on the phone
