♪4 | video/action for Goldenrod City
[A video post opens. The camera is a little shaky at first, but settles down after a while. It's obvious that a Pokémon is recording this since the owner of the gear can be seen, standing further away from the gear with a saxophone on hand. This, however, isn't an accidental post as you can figure once Ren starts talking.]
I made a promise once that I would let someone listen to my music. It took me a while, but I'm ready to play now. [Hey, it's better than having to listen to the background music all the time, right?] This is what I've been able to come up with during the time I've been here.
[Enough talking for now. He'll start playing his saxophone to this song. Obviously he can't play it while he sings, but you get the idea of the rhythm every time he does play.
While he's singing, he seems to be really enjoying what he's doing. This is his passion for music, ladies and gentleman.
After the songs ends, he takes a moment to talk to his audience.]
Thank you for listening. [He smiles.] This also won't be the last time you'll be hearing me perform. I'm an idol, after all.
[With that, he'll give a small signal and the feed cuts here.]

[video] // I know, and it's canon for Ren, too but.... it amuses me here XD
I did, but it's a very sad and kind of long story.
[video] // my work is done
I won't force you to tell it. I'm glad you got over it, though... it would have been a shame if a flower like you wouldn't have bloomed.
[video]
[...Well, you asked for it.]
I ...My parents died on the day I was born because they were rushing to the hospital, so mom could give birth to me... I cried about it a lot later, but at that time my life was full of people who'd rather have them than me alive, so... Crying was a bad idea, showing my feelings was a bad idea.
But then I moved into an other orphanage and I met a boy, who became like a brother to me. Then, suddenly, he had to move to America - and we were in Japan, by the way... Before he left, he ... confessed his love to me, but I couldn't answer, because I was too confused and happy for it.
Well, Eichi never made it to America. The plane crashed to the ocean on the way, no survivors. Ehh, I wasn't really supposed to see it in the news - but I did, yet no one knew that I had seen it.
So, then I remembered what he always said to me.
The moon always shows only one side of itself to us and hides its scars to the other side.
And so I did! Because those aunts in the first orphanage had always blamed me for the dead of my parents. Because I blamed myself for all three deaths and didn't want more blame from others and because I didn't want to believe it.
So I kept smiling [she'll make a face; like this ^___________________________________^] instead of crying or showing any signs of knowing that it happened. Instead I kept saying that I want to sing to him, to possibly go to meet him and all that stuff.
Then I met new friends, who found out about it and I started opening up a bit...
Ah, but it all lead to my producer questioning about my songs, whether they're really the word that I want to get out of my heart. And he's a really, really nice doctor / producer person, so hearing that he'll quit if I don't sing with my whole heart was a surprise... Then again, not so much because I knew what the problem was...
Ah, and then it took some time to get it out, but in the end I really found the full moon...
That sounded weird. And the story ended up much, much longer than I expected ...
[OOOOOOOOOOOPS!!]
Are you still there?
[video]
Yes. Sounds like you've had a rough life, even for someone so young... but you've gotten through it and now shine like the moon in the sky... and I'm sure you'll go far with your singing career.
[video]
[Flailing her hands.]
Ahh, but I'm competely fine now. Cheerful as ever, here in Johto again, and my music career just kicked into its new beginning at home.
[video]
Good to hear you're doing fine even on the health side now.
A bad timing for you as well, I take it? Our band just debuted before I came here.
[video]
Hmmm, maybe just half bad, since I did have a concert before I woke up in mom's house. And I've been here before, so ah, coming back is a fun experience.
You're in a band?
[video]
I guess that answers your question. Though it's a boyband with six guys, rather than just me singing.
[video]
[Ohh, so it's one of those bands where boys sing and dance?]
Do you write and compose your own songs?
[...other than that song from you, you know.]
[video]
[Still, not as much trouble as this girl had.]
Mostly lyrics. I do know the basics of song making, but our band has a composer who put us together.
[video]
Well then, I'm glad your composer put you all together when you work as a band. I write my own lyrics too, unless the song is a cover, but I know nothing about composing songs. I've just ...Sang for all my life like my life depended on it.
[...Yep, that's quite literally... correct too.]
[video]
Our composer is an amazing person. I hope you'll meet her one day. I'm sure she would love to compose some music for you as well.
[video]
Ah, I also hope that I'll meet her one day. It's wonderful to meet other people who are interested in music after all, and I'd be happy to hear if she'd compose something for me too.
[video]
I'll make sure to tell you if she ever appears. [Though he really hopes he'll be out of his situation if she does.]
[video]
Thank you~!
Ahh, right - I didn't even introduce myself, did I? Kooyama Mitsuki, that's in Japanese order, nice to meet you! [have a wink~]
[video]
[video]
Do you specify yourself and your music into some certain genre?
[Just curious~, because some people sing everything and some - like herself - sing only from one genre.]
[video]
[They truly are a boyband.]
How about you?
[video]
Ahh, me? I've always been a Japanese pop singer, since that's my favorite music genre.
[video]
[They both seem to come from modern-ish Japan, after all.]
Japanese pop does fit you well.
[video]
[Maybe she's still in the music business when they first debut!]
Thank you. Your style of music certainly fits you well too.
[video]
Thank you. That's always nice to hear.
[video]
You're welcome. [And have a smile.]
