Oh, there are great water projection shows out there! Let me show you, have you seen any?

[She pulls her phone out and looks up one of these.]

I could make a screen out of water, and that's what the light goes onto. Or your globe idea's great, too!

[ Stella nudges in next to Rain so she can peer down at the phone screen and her eyes immediately start to light up. ]

Whooaaa, this is crazy! I've never seen anything like this before! How's it even work?

Light refractions in water with lasers! Sometimes they can look 3-D in real life. I have to admit I don't know a lot of the technical details.

We're just gonna have to do a bunch of research! I bet we can bug some of the light techs to get some ideas, too.

[ She ducks under the table for a second so she can fish her notepad and pen out of her bag and starts scribbling some of this down. ]

What song d'you think it'd be best with? Definitely a big group one!

That's true! Hmm... You've got a big part in "Unlimited Stars," and since light is probably the most important part of a projection show, maybe that would work. But I don't want to put too much pressure on you, either, since you're new. How about "Merry Merry Land?" What do you think that would look like?

Uwahhh, I don't wanna be the center right away for a big performance like that... scary, scary.

[ She makes a note of that anyway, though. She's a diligent note taker, if nothing else. ]

Merry Merry Land could be fun... I think if we're gonna do something big and fancy like this then it definitely needs to be all of us on stage and sharing the spotlight properly! Otherwise it's not fair.

[ She taps her pen on the page as she mulls it over. ]

Mrgrgr... what's the setlist for that show again?

Let me find it. I know we're starting with "Red Carpet Rainbow" since we're riding the limo onto the stage, and we only do that at the start or end of an act. [She pulls her phone out again and scrolls through.] Ah, there! "Red Carpet Rainbow," "Sailing on a Sweet Rocket --" you know, before we got the video backdrop for that song, I didn't even realize "sweet rocket" was a type of flower, did you? I thought it was about candy.

[ Immediately distracted; ] It's not about candy?!

[ TODAY SHE LEARNED... ]

But the lyrics are all about sugar and stuff tasting sweet! ... oh, that's probably a metaphor, huh...

Maybe they had both in mind when they thought about it. They've been doing this for a long time.

I guess. Eheh, a lot more goes into the lyrics than I would've thought... I guess when you write so many songs you get pretty good at it.

[ And then her eyes start sparkling. ]

Wouldn't it be fun for us all to write a song together someday?

You know, I think so! It'd be a lot of work, but I'm sure everyone would love it. We're coming up with a lot, aren't we?

Well, you said it sounded like something was gonna happen. So this is like... our backup plan! Everyone'll be super impressed once they find out we've got one.

[ Stella? Forward planning?? Say it ain't so. ]
