Her smile faded as the boy seemed to stare past her, his eyes clouding.

[color=a187be]"..ah."[/color] Utano was genuinely flustered when tears started streaming down his face. What was happening? Of all the people, this delinquent fellow was the one to start crying. Did her name had some sort of traumatic meaning in his past?

One of the other girls came up to and started speaking.[color=fff79a]"May I have a second with you? We've got a bad case of scenery panic... and you seem the type to be acknowledged with it. We'll be in the girls bath. Sorry for the disturbance."[/color] And just like that, she ran off.

[color=a187be]"Scenery... panic?"[/color] She had no idea what that was, nor was she really equipped to deal with anything regarding panic. In fact, she herself was close to simple ordinary panicking. This boy looked utterly utterly lost all of a sudden and she doesn't know how to deal with this. All of a sudden, Ian started moving, looking to be just as surprised as she was to see tears on his face.

[color=6ecff6]"I'm sorry, it's just . . . my sister is, or was, a really big fan of yours. She played Kibou to Negai so many times I could probably recite it you by heart. I'm sorry, but I think I'll . . . I'll just leave you to your business."[/color]

[color=a187be]"Eh?...ah wa.."[/color]

And just like that, he left as well, leaving her alone looking rather bewildered. It was hardly surprising her stage persona was gone by then; she never had to deal with this sort of situation before after all. By now she's go straight back to her dressing room, and sit wide eyed at in front of her mirror and try to process everything, but she doesn't have a dressing room, and they are having a scenery panic in the toilet now, leaving her little choice but to stay where she was.

With a thoughtful look upon her face, Utano reached up to her headphones, pressing the large button on the side. A small holographic menu appeared in front of her, listing all of her current released and a few unreleased songs. As she picked a song from the list, the holograms disappeared, as her suit started shimmering. It wasn't set to stage mode however, so it just played the music just loud enough to be heard if people stood near her. Kibou to Negai, like its name, was about her hopes and wishes, where in the song, she started off low, but kept on reaching for her goal when encouraged and ultimately reaching her dreams. It's one of her slower songs she liked because it didn't require a huge amount of energy to perform all the dancing and the moving.

"Why was it, that only you notices me?
Could it be that this is fate?"[/color][/i]

She started singing softly to herself. It was oddly calming, perhaps due to its familiar nature in this strange environment.
