Everyone GET DOWN

[reachforthestars]

[suddenly, with no warning what so ever, the lights go out all at once. But it's all right, because LIGHTS!

CAMERA!

ACTION!

-- Wait wait wait, when did someone manage to set up a stage in the middle of Central Station anyway? Oh well, details, who cares because we brought music and rhythm games and likely the racing and fighting and shooting games too because who can say no to score attack? (Not your cup of tea? That's okay, it's what SEGA Bass Fishing is for!)

Did you really expect an arcade to open up and there to not be a major company's mascot character to show up? Exactly how many games do you think exist in this arcade that's published by SEGA anyway? Wanna join in? It's cool, we got your back. Calling all my All-Stars, let's all get up and jam!

But it seems Sonic's not on the stage dancing by himself. There's another kid up here, dressed in a snazzy suit. Must be a new kid considering he's not a familiar face around here. It's all right though, what with the new game machine that SEGA put out last year, Phantom R was making a splash even outside of his own handheld game]

Ready?

It's... SHOWTIME!

[OOC: SO I'll be tagging as both Sonic the Hedgehog and Phantom R from Rhythm Thief because SEGA likes it's arcade games. Not sure what game is being shown? It's MaiMai Plus aka that game that looks like a washing machine, which has been recently gotten the plus version with both 3 songs from Rhythm Thief and 3 songs from the Sonic franchise not that Sonic needs more reason to be in the arcade because he's already in All-Stars Racing and Sonic the Fighters among others . Likely, both of them will reply (in the same comment or otherwise noted) or, if you just want to speak with one specifically, let me know in the subject!

IF YOU WANT TO JOIN THE DANCING. Let's all be friends as these two glory hogs try to steal the show- Yea, okay I'm done with the terrible puns and references... for now. and they fixed the lights when the show's over too. They're terrible, but they're not mean!]

I'm probably one of the less unusual folk from my game. [Or so he says.]

Phantom R, eh? A pleasure.

Can't say I make a habit of it. Usually don't see your blue friend make such a fuss aside from his PSA as a rule so I decided to see what the commotion was all about.

[feeltherhythm]

Ah... I guess I'll keep an eye out for you guys then.

Ha ha~ Well, I figured it'd be a fun little thing to do and he agreed to help me out. Sonic's a good guy.

... When he's not too busy rolling around at the speed of sound and doing his little 'Sonic Says' segments.

[from a short distance away comes a loud "I HEARD THAT!!". R flinches for effect and waves off the shout]

[bamlaunchers]

You'll know when you see us--Spyro, especially. He's hard to miss. [Relatively.]

It was a nice change from the usual, I'll admit that. I'm only vaguely familiar with Sonic, myself. I've seen him around, haven't really spoken to him much.

[feeltherhythm]

All right then... [the name sounds familiar at least. He'll have to ask his senpai about it]

[his smile widens] Glad to hear you enjoyed it! We do our best to aim to please. ... Even though some of our consumers have rather unrealistic or misinformed expectations of us.

And I guess even he has a hard time talking to everyone... Who would've known?

[bamlaunchers]

Eh, tough crowds, what can you do? [At least y'all haven't jumped companies, what, five million times? Though, as far as this mun's concerned, there's nothing in the Spyro series after Year of the Dragon] Consumers are a fickle bunch by principle.

Well, of course no one's going to talk to everyone. Not when some don't even leave their games.

[feeltherhythm]

[the day Sonic moves to another company is the day SEGA stops being a game company... Which sounds more and more probable as time goes by... sob]

So I've been told. I think I did all right for my first dance though. After all, it takes a lot of luck to get up to Sonic or Mario's level...

... Some people don't leave their games? Why? It seems like a bit of a waste.

[but he knows about the whole 'YOU DIE IN ANOTHER GAME AND IT'S GAME OVER FOR YOU' because lol Sonic says]

[bamlaunchers]

You seem like you'd be the popular sort. Takes a lot of luck and a lot of time.

Some people aren't the sort who particularly like dealing with crowds. Some sorts shouldn't be trusted around this many people. [He can name a couple who fall into that category.] Lots of people have their reasons, just like everyone here has their reasons for being out and about.

[feeltherhythm]

... Gee, thanks. [and hey, he does appreciate the compliment]

I guess everyone's got their own program...? [shrug] So what about you, Sarg?
