| '''Scene 1: Studio'''
| |
|
| |
|
| The normally chaotic studio falls silent. Everyone stops whatever work they were doing.
| |
|
| |
| A model is causing a scene at a critical segment of the shoot... You secretly raise your head, only to see Marius frowning next to you.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Watch your expression, everyone's a bit tense.
| |
|
| |
| Marius places a hand to his forehead, shooting you a sudden smile.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' You got me. Have you been sneaking glances at me the entire time?
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' No. I just don't want your temper getting in the way of work.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Don't worry, I'm not mad. I'm just thinking about what to do about this.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' I should take responsibility for this since I did choose the model myself.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' ...
| |
|
| |
| You mean to reassure Marius to not be mad at the model, but it somehow ended up with him comforting you.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' This is not entirely your fault either, you must have had your reasons for doing this.
| |
|
| |
| The position of the lead model at Pax's fashion week was highly coveted, and there were countless top-tier models among the candidates.
| |
|
| |
| Yet... Marius went against all objections and insisted on selecting a model that no one had ever heard of.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Is there some kind of misunderstanding? This fashion show is probably the best opportunity he's gonna get.
| |
|
| |
| You still cannot comprehend the model's behavior.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' I'm not sure. But, purposely being late is a common way the entertainment industry uses to play their cards.
| |
|
| |
| Marius shakes his head as he looks outside the studio, his expression returning to normal.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Okay, no need to wait. Choose someone else we've shortlisted and tell the model's agent that we're going to terminate the contract.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Terminate contract... Wait, do you mean with the agent or the model?
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' You think about it. What did I tell you to prepare for me yesterday?
| |
|
| |
| He turns around to speak with his assistant then looks back at you.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Did you bring the papers?
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' I did...
| |
|
| |
| You received a call from Marius yesterday, asking you to prepare a termination of management agreement.
| |
|
| |
| Something had felt off, but you didn't think too much about it back then. It is only now that you realize.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Marius, shouldn't you terminate the contract with the model and not the agency for a situation like this?
| |
|
| |
| After hearing what you said, Marius smiles but does not say anything.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' It's okay, just do as I say. I'll explain to you later.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' You don't look the least bit worried about it affecting your publicity. Seems like I've been worrying for nothing.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Who says I'm not worried? I'm just confident that I've got this.
| |
|
| |
| Marius' assistant hands him a tablet that contains a list of backup models and begins to browse.
| |
|
| |
| However, the smile on his face disappears. The further down the list he went, the more frustrated he looked.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' What's wrong? You looked like you had a grand plan just moments ago.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Nothing... Just, none of them seem right.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' (Doesn't seem right? None of the replacements qualify?)
| |
|
| |
| You take the tablet from Marius. Every name you see on the list have numerous awards attached to them...
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Not even Ricardo? He just won first place in a model contest.
| |
|
| |
| You have seen glimpses of this model on TV before. You remember his name, but not what he looks like.
| |
|
| |
| A replacement has to be selected in this situation, even if it means that you have to convince Marius to lower his standards.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' You think he's good?
| |
|
| |
| {{tab/start}}
| |
| {{tab/header|He is bad}}
| |
| You don't know why, but you seem to sense a bit of unwillingness from Marius' tone.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Not exactly, but I mean he did win first place.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' I only saw him a few times on TV. but I don't remember exactly what he looks like.
| |
|
| |
| Marius seems to cheer up slightly after your second comment.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Then... What do you think of me?
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' No one's as handsome as you. You're born to be a model, so everyone pales in comparison to you!
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Now we're talking.
| |
|
| |
| {{tab/header|He is good}}
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' He's pretty good, and he's been getting lots of attention from the girls on the internet recently.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' I get lots of attention too, that's not good enough
| |
|
| |
| ... Point well made.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' He... He's very gentlemanly, has a good physique, and knows how to pose.
| |
|
| |
| You try hard to recall the internet comments as you stumble through your speech.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Why do I feel like you're talking about me?
| |
| {{tab/end}}
| |
|
| |
| Seeing the smug look on his face, you can't help but want to tease him further.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Why don't you try then?
| |
|
| |
| You put it out casually, not expecting everyone to actually lapse into a deathly silence.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Hahaha, I'm just kidding.
| |
|
| |
| '''Photographer:''' Actually, this pharaoh-themed collection fits Mr. von Hagen really well... It'll be great if we can shoot him in it.
| |
|
| |
| The photographer in a corner whispers, and the entire studio fills with low murmuring shortly after.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' I could... be the model for this one.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Huh?
| |
|
| |
| His unexpected response out of the blue catches you off guard.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' (Name), would you like to see me model? If you do, then I don't mind giving you my first photoshoot debut.
| |
|
| |
| There it is again! That insatiable tone of his!
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' I don't...
| |
|
| |
| {{tab/header|Story 2}}
| |
| '''Scene 1: Studio'''
| |
|
| |
| Before you could turn him down, all the staff in the studio begin staring at you hopefully, eyes brimming with expectation.
| |
|
| |
| Being surrounded by such powerful yearnings, you had no choice but to change your mind.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Yeah, I do. I really, really want to see you modeling.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Alright, wait right here, I'll go get changed.
| |
|
| |
| The publicity manager bursts into laughter after Marius gives him a hard stare.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' I guess looks are everything in the fashion world.
| |
|
| |
| It is a relief to see the studio bustling and back to normal.
| |
|
| |
| Who would've guessed that this place, dead silent just moments ago, would be bustling with life now?
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Well, if Marius is to be the model, a hundred back-to-back poses shouldn't be much of a challenge for him.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' What are you secretly smiling about over there?
| |
|
| |
| Marius' voice suddenly appears from behind, startling you.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Oh nothing, didn't you go change? Why aren't you changed?
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' I tried it on and the size wasn't right. They're using the backup clothes to make adjustments.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Backup? Why not just make adjustments on the original?
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' About that... erm...
| |
|
| |
| He's not being straightforward about it, something's up!
| |
|
| |
| Just as you are about to press further, an argument sparks outside the studio.
| |
|
| |
| '''Scene 2: Corridor'''
| |
|
| |
| You both go to the corridor outside the studio, seeing a staff member trying in vain to explain something to another person.
| |
|
| |
| '''Staff:''' I'm sorry, but we're shooting right now, only authorized personnel are allowed to enter.
| |
|
| |
| '''???:''' I'm the agent of the lead model for the fashion show. We were delayed on the road, that's why we're late.
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' I heard about the contract termination upon arrival. There must be a misunderstanding. Can you ask Mr. von Hagen if he has a moment to spare?
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' A misunderstanding? Why haven't I heard anything about this?
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' Mr. von Hagen...!!
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Eh...?
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' (... Isn't this the guy I met on the way to Pax?)
| |
|
| |
| '''Flashback'''
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' Listen, this is your time to prove what you're worth...
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' It's fine being a little late, the point is to make them wait. That way, they can see your value.
| |
|
| |
| '''Present'''
| |
|
| |
| This agent had been on the phone when you ran into him, so you didn't pay much attention to his conversation.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' (Marius was right, they were trying to play their cards right by being purposefully late...)
| |
|
| |
| After recognizing you, the agent suddenly has difficulty maintaining the flattering smile on his face.
| |
|
| |
| You tug lightly on Marius' shirt, wanting to tell him about the agent. Marius responds by waving back.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' What's going on? You're staring an awful lot. Are you trying to poach one of my staff members?
| |
|
| |
| Marius lets out a cold laugh.
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' No no no, it's purely my own curiosity. The people that you keep around you must be phenomenal...
| |
|
| |
| Although you're still unsure of Marius' intentions, playing along with him is always fail-safe.
| |
|
| |
| You put away your suspicions and put on a winning smile for the modeling agent in front of you.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' I am an attorney from Themis Law Firm. I am in charge of the legal issues of the fashion week event.
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' Oh I see, Themis Law Firm...l know it very well by reputation!
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' What, you know her?
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' No, I don't. I've just been to this law firm before, and she looks a little familiar.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Oh? What a coincidence.
| |
|
| |
| Marius looks at you and shakes his head lightly as if he was telling you not to expose the agent's lie.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Yeah, what a coincidence...
| |
|
| |
| The agent clears his throat, trying to clear up the awkward atmosphere.
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' Mr. von Hagen, we got here as fast as we could, only to be notified of the contract's termination. We can talk it out if there's been a misunderstanding...
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' We were late and held everyone up, but it's all to prepare for this photoshoot... Sigh... it's our fault. I really do apologize.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' There's no need for that. Where's the model? I'd like to see what you guys prepared.
| |
|
| |
| {{tab/header|Story 3}}
| |
| '''Scene 1: Corridor'''
| |
|
| |
| After getting Marius' "approval," the manager went and brought the model.
| |
|
| |
| But...
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' This pharaoh makeup is... quite special.
| |
|
| |
| The model's face is covered in gold, paired with thick dark eyebrows and eyeliners, but no one can make out his features...
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' What happened to your makeup!? It was just fine!!
| |
|
| |
| The agent seems to be dumbfounded as well.
| |
|
| |
| '''Model:''' The makeup artist saw the photoshoot theme and thought my makeup wasn't fitting enough, so she redid it...
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' And you let her do whatever she wanted!? Don't you know how to say no!?
| |
|
| |
| '''Model:''' I thought it was your idea... I thought you had her redo it for me...
| |
|
| |
| He's quite tall and muscular but yet, he is literally drooping when talking to his agent.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' This is what you especially prepared?
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' I'm so, so sorry, Mr. von Hagen, I'll make sure the makeup artist gets a piece of my mind!
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' We really did prepare for this photoshoot, and we weren't deliberately late... Please give us another chance!
| |
|
| |
| You look at Marius, unsure of how he'll respond to this.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Sure, I'll give you another chance.
| |
|
| |
| The agent is overjoyed after hearing that Marius was willing to give them another chance, happily agreeing to him.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' However...
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Due to not wanting to delay the shoot, we've already found a new model.
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' You mean...?
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Take your model to the dressing room to get changed. We'll have our new model compete with yours. The winner will be the lead model of the fashion week.
| |
|
| |
| Watching the agent and model quickly rushing into the studio, you quietly let out a sigh.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' You're too nice, why would you give someone with such little contract ethic a second chance?
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' But their expressions will definitely be hilarious once they find out that you're the other model.
| |
|
| |
| Marius waggles his eyebrows at you.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Let's put the modeling stuff aside first. Have you met that agent before?
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Oh about that...
| |
|
| |
| You tell Marius everything regarding your encounter with the agent, including the phone conversation.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' I wanted to warn you earlier, but you...
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Hmm... It's about the same as what I was expecting. Make sure you don't have any more contact with him.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Why? I'm not a model, I won't have any dealings with him.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' I stopped you because these celebrity agents usually have a number of media resources.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' If I terminated his contract now, he will most definitely hate on you. Plus... you and l are close...
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' I'm afraid he'll buy the media over and make a scene. I personally don't mind this, but it will affect you too.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Better to give him a chance. It's not too late to terminate the contract after they lose anyway. That way, he won't be prejudiced towards you.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' ...
| |
|
| |
| So Marius did all that, just to protect you...
| |
|
| |
| Seeing your astonished expression, Marius begins to laugh.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' What is it? You have a really surprised look on your face. Are you worried I won't win?
| |
|
| |
| A heart full of gratitude, shattered by his frivolous tone. You can't help but to roll your eyes at him.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' You better go get changed first!
| |
|
| |
| '''Scene 2: Studio'''
| |
|
| |
| After entering the studio, the staff swarms him, shepherding him to get changed.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' ...
| |
|
| |
| It's the first time you've seen anything like it, and it proves to be quite an interesting sight.
| |
|
| |
| Not long after Marius goes into the makeup room, his assistant pushes a huge cloth-covered cage into the studio.
| |
|
| |
| Just as you are guessing what is in the cage, you hear the model's agent's voice from across the studio.
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' Mr. von Hagen? Erm... Where's Mr. von Hagen?
| |
|
| |
| The model is behind him. His handsome figure and deep-set brows can now be seen after having taken off the ridiculous makeup, perfectly fitting in with the theme.
| |
|
| |
| But, as good-looking as he is... you feel like something is missing.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' ...
| |
|
| |
| The expression on your face probably helped inflate his confidence. He looks around, crowing triumphantly.
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' Where's the other model you guys hired? This changing speed won't do, and the catwalk...
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Something wrong with my changing speed? I was simply trying to get into the right mindset for a photoshoot.
| |
|
| |
| Marius appears from the shadows and walks straight onto the set in the studio.
| |
|
| |
| His assistant opens the cage and a pharaoh hound slowly steps out. It made its way towards Marius, sitting by his feet without any hesitation.
| |
|
| |
| [[File:Marius "Dream of Thebes" CG1.jpg|300px|right]]
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' ...
| |
|
| |
| Perhaps he‘d rushed to change, for he walked out of the room with his shirt wide open, despite how his clothes should have been as complicated as his counterpart.
| |
|
| |
| But even so... No one could ignore the haughty pride and confidence that radiated off his being.
| |
|
| |
| It was then, that you suddenly realize just what the other model was missing.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Come here.
| |
|
| |
| He calls for you gently and holds up his hand.
| |
|
| |
| The projected flames dance behind Marius and flicker alongside the gold dust on the murals and decorations.
| |
|
| |
| Through his eyes, you feel as if you've traveled across millenniums. Flying over the beautiful Nile to reunite with your beloved Amon.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' The sun rises every day, just for you...
| |
|
| |
| Oaths engraved in stone monuments, lasting for thousands of years, yet the romance within remains unchanged.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' My love for you is the one and only.
| |
|
| |
| Camera shutters continue to go off. You knew that he was simply getting into his role, but your heart unwittingly raced.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' ...
| |
|
| |
| His purple eyes quietly gaze upon you, making you feel as if you were in the great palace of Pi-Ramesses.
| |
|
| |
| The king sits on the throne, silently conveying his overwhelming love for you through his passionate gaze.
| |
|
| |
| Whether it be the past, present, or future; only one person can stand with him as an equal, forever cherished in his heart.
| |
|
| |
| {{tab/header|Story 4}}
| |
| '''Scene 1: Studio'''
| |
|
| |
| Marius stands up as you put your hand into his palm. He takes your hand and walks you out of the shooting area.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Wha... what's wrong?
| |
|
| |
| His sudden action makes you realize how flirtatiously the two of you were holding hands.
| |
|
| |
| But it will be too obvious if you take back your hand right now.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' My eye...
| |
|
| |
| You snap out of your reverie when you hear the tinge of pain in his voice.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Don't move, let me take a look!
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Okay, will this help?
| |
|
| |
| [[File:Marius "Dream of Thebes" CG2.jpg|300px|right]]
| |
| He bends down slightly, putting the two of you in very close proximity once more, catching you off guard.
| |
|
| |
| An upward brow and a high nose... He would be more charming if he weren't frowning and keeping his left eye tightly shut.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Stop... stop moving. Are you able to open your left eye?
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' I don't think so, it still hurts.
| |
|
| |
| You gently touch his left eye. There isn't any swelling nor anything wrong with it.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' ...
| |
|
| |
| Seeing the sweat on his forehead and the heat coming out of the studio lights...
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Your sweat probably carried the makeup into your eye. I'll get someone to take care of it for you.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' No, don't leave. That's not necessary. You can... you can just blow into my eyes and it'll be fine.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Really?
| |
|
| |
| Marius puts on an innocent expression and nods his head. He then tilts his body and moves even closer to you.
| |
|
| |
| His breath gently brushes your cheeks. It's a little ticklish.
| |
|
| |
| You carefully blow into his left eye. It suddenly peers open, letting you clearly see the slight wetness of his alluring purple eyes.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' ... You're a little too close.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' So what? Isn't it much more convenient this way?
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Yea... it feels much better now. One more time should do.
| |
|
| |
| There is a faint smile playing at his lips that contradicted the slight distress in his voice.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' You're fine as long as you can open your eye... They're still waiting for you.
| |
|
| |
| You point towards the model and his agent who were standing on the other end.
| |
|
| |
| The agent kept his mouth tightly sealed from the very moment Marius made his appearance.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Your turn.
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' Ahem, I don't think we need to continue with the competition. Even the hunting hound has been subdued by your aura...
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' ...
| |
|
| |
| Did he misunderstand because he didn't see Marius's assistant bringing the hound here?
| |
|
| |
| Well, it's better that way, and also helps save a lot of trouble.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Are you forfeiting?
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' Yes, of course. We are already more than grateful for having been given a second chance!
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' Do you think... we can sign an ordinary contract? You probably will need people for the catwalk right? Even backup works.
| |
|
| |
| Looks like he's still not giving up, and is trying to see what other chances he can get from this.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' No, that's not necessary. I don't plan on starting a modeling career. Giovanni will still be Pax's lead model.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' ...?
| |

| |
| Giovanni? Is that the model's name? And what exactly does Marius mean by that?
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' You're serious right!? Thank you so much!!
| |
|
| |
| After seeing the excited expression on the agent's face, Marius began to speak again.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Amateurs will always make mistakes, and I don't mind that. However, I am only asking Giovanni to stay.
| |
|
| |
| The agent is shocked when he hears what Marius said.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' I am extremely uncomfortable with your attitude, as his agent, in this partnership.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' I will give you 2 choices. Terminate your agreement with Giovanni, or Pax will terminate all cooperation with your company.
| |
|
| |
| You finally understand what Marius meant.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Of course, you can also choose neither. Then, I'll have my assistant contact your boss directly and let him be the one to decide.
| |
|
| |
| Screwing up the opportunity to work with Pax is a grave loss for any company. Hence, the company will replace him even if he chooses not to.
| |
|
| |
| Marius' assistant hands you the prepared termination of management agreement. You hand it to Giovanni.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' If there are no objections, please sign on the last page.
| |
|
| |
| '''Modeling Agent:''' Umm... can we wait till the end of the photoshoot? Giovanni is new, he won't be able to make it without me.
| |
|
| |
| '''Giovanni:''' I am still aware of how my partnership with them is like. I'll sign it.
| |
|
| |
| Giovanni signs the contract and passes it to the agent. The agent unwillingly signs before dejectedly leaving.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' (That agent is going to have a hard time with his career in the future... He brought this on himself.)
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Alright, then it is settled.
| |
|
| |
| He turns and looks at the model standing in the corner, waving to him.
| |
|
| |
| '''Giovanni:''' Thank you.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' Not a problem. You better give this shoot your all after all this trouble just to help you swap agents.
| |
|
| |
| '''Giovanni:''' Of course!
| |
|
| |
| Swap agents? Is that why he...
| |
|
| |
| '''Flashback'''
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Marius, shouldn't you terminate the contract with the model and not the agency for a situation like this?
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Marius von Hagen|Marius]]:''' It's okay, just do as I say. I'll explain to you later.
| |
|
| |
| '''Present'''
| |
|
| |
| What Marius said begins to circle in your head.
| |
|
| |
| '''[[Main Character|You]]:''' Marius... You know each other? This was planned all along?
