mHm. [ as vox hums static jumps through the air, dancing through the nearest bunch of television sets to bring bulma's dreams to life. manifested into a literal reality she'll see her face appear on them for a couple of seconds just as she'd seen in her head, all perfectly primmed, ...and just so she doesn't miss it he's taking her shoulder and turning her to face them. ] I think so too. So [ he leans in so that he's talking in her ear. ] what do you say, Miss Bulma, why don't you come work for the Vees... specifically me. I'll take good care of you. [ his grin broadens, blood trailing down his monitor as he holds out his hand to her. ] And I'll make you... a star ⋆｡°✩
A star... [She sounds pretty star-struck herself, voice drifting dreamily along as she surveys the screens around her. It just feels right somehow, almost like she thought of it. Yes, actually, Bulma is starting to think this is her bright idea made manifest.]
[She perks up to a more lucid state as she makes this decision, her shoulders straightening under Vox's touch.]
I'll do it-- in front of the camera, behind the scenes, I'm your girl! [She smiles.] So where do I sign? Next to my handprints in cement?
How about both! [ he chuckles with a grin. ] I don't see why it couldn't be both, Bulma. A girl like you. I think you've got it all. [ he snaps his fingers and a golden contract appears before them. it outlines a lot, but she doesn't need to read all that. it just says that for the price of her soul he will do what he can to make her . ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁ star ݁ . ⊹ ₊ ݁. ! and the vees have a lot of power in hell, even if they have to start over there are still demons here that know them and their reign over technology is bound to help them re-ascend quickly. ]
Just sign here, Bulma. [ a pen appears beside the contract. ]
[Bulma preens at the praise, drinking it in and nourishing her ego even further.]
All and then some.
[Very proudly she snatches that pen, eyeing the contract reverently. Truly it feels like her own golden ticket, and isn't it? She pretends to skim it, letting her eyes glaze over the page as she imagines how good this will be for her. It must look very mature and responsible, the way she really gives it a second thought. All too eagerly, she gives up that pretense and lowers the pen to the page--]
Bulma Briefs
[No spark, no smoke, nothing out of the ordinary. Maybe a soul isn't such a big deal. As soon as it's done, set in stone, the pen dissolves from her hand. She blinks at it before turning her attention back to Vox.]
A change of plans needs a change of wardrobe, don't you think?
[Can you imagine her in a cute little reporter gettup? Think about it.... think about it.....]
[ as soon as she finishes signing the contract vox snatches it out of the air with a sharp smile. it digitizes the moment he makes contact, the 0s and 1s shooting into his face and scrolling over his display. it’s quick, but it probably looks strange, but, then again, a guy with a tv for a face is strange to begin with. ] I think you’re right. How about we go on a little shopping spree? And I’m going to have to introduce you to Velvette – another one of the Vees, the media mogul and fashionista of the group. However, I do know a thing or two about dressing sharp too.
[Bulma snaps back to her usual self at being told shes right-- and the imminent fulfillment of the promised shopping spree!!! She grins.]
Then we're a couple of peas in a pod. [She strikes a pose with a wink.] Put me in a tailored jacket and skirt set and you can watch the ratings skyrocket!
