Enstars Open RP and Voice Test

[rottencactus]

WELCOME TO ENSEMBLE SQUARE


Hello producers! This is an 100% judgement free open post for people looking to both voice test and just muck around now that we've all got the english release of music. New and old are welcome here and this post is free to be passed around! You do not have to know me in order to post here.

Quick Rules:

1. This is for voice testing so be kind of others trying out characters for the first time.
2. Label how concerned with spoilers you are in any top-levels as a lot of us are still catching up on the story from Basic.
3. Respect content warnings and opt-outs anyone may have. Enstars is a buckwild canon! Not everyone is comfortable engaging with certain parts of it and there's nothing wrong with that.
4. Have fun its idol time babey

Prompts

Ensemble Square

Renting out a training room, holding a meeting, having a Live, scuttling around on the roof because someone left you unsupervised and not even god himself has dominion over your whims? There's lots to choose from. Get some practice in, grab a bite to eat at the cafeteria, go nuts.

Work

Whether its handing out fliers or doing meet-and-greets, you gotta earn that sweet sweet company scriptL$. Work with your partner to get the job done!

Yumenosaki

Go to class because it's not enough to have a full time job on top of everything else. At least you can ditch for work, but that doesn't mean you can ditch forever. Drag yourself to class, or be dragged by someone else, and get that sweet idol education.

Around Tokyo

You have a day off?? Huh. Oh well, better make the best of it! ES is smack in the middle of Tokyo so there's plenty to go see and do. Go find a nice cafe, go shopping, find a nice park, visit a shrine. You'll probably not get recognized by the general public, right? Good luck.

These are just suggestions for prompts! Feel free to post and tag with whatever you want! I will also have a TFLN top level below for further hijinks.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to this journal and PM me.

[!!!

Breath, Aira, breath. Do not melt into a puddle of idol otaku goo in front of Nito-senpai.

He may be vibrating just slightly.]

If you're sure! I should probably take a break, anyway, I've been shopping all day.

[See the several bags this tiny boy is carrying.]

[bunnii]

[Ah. That's right. Aira was an idol now, but he was also a fan.

...he should probably be careful not to disappoint him.]

Mmn! It'll be good for me too.

[Looking down at his bags--]

Do you want a hand with those? [...] If you like crepes, there's a fresh fruit place I know that makes them.

[lovehan]

No, I've got them--wait, you know a crepe place?

[AH!! Is this special Ra*bits approved crepe place? Or is it Nito-senpai's secret crepe place? He isn't going to take pictures, at least, that'd be rude...well okay, he'll take pictures of the crepes but say nothing else when he posts it to social media.

Either way: be still his otaku heart.]

I'd love to go, Nito-senpai!

[bunnii]

[Nazuna can tell there's a lot going on in that head of Aira's but he can't begin to guess what. Still, he seems really happy about it and that's more than enough for him.]

Mm. They've got a pretty good selection even beyond crepes. And they're known for using really good fresh products so it's the sort of place I was able to go even when my diet was pretty strict. Come on, I'll show you~

[lovehan]

[That noise you're hearing is Aira mentally going eeeeeeee as loudly as he can while keeping it all to a smile externally.]

I can't wait. I'm already mourning the day I'm told I have to watch how much chocolate I eat.

[bunnii]

[He can't help but laugh a little.]

Ahaha... well, every idol looks at nutrition a little differently. Some are really strict and pretty picky about what they'll eat. But you also have people like Kagehira who's always carrying candy around with him or Mitsuru-chin who really loves bread. So I'm sure you'll be able to find a nice balance once you get used to it.

[lovehan]

[Okay if Kagehira and Tenma-senpai can eat candy and bread, Aira's occasional chocolate should be fine.]

That's a relief.

[What does he talk about aaaah--

That's when Aira's phone goes off with the tone he has specifically for Hiiro since. Well. If Hiiro's texting him, it's probably--

Yep. Yep. Aira groans.]

Nito-senpai, does your college have tech classes for dummies?

[bunnii]

[Tech classes for—

Oh. Oh no.

Well hopefully it can’t possibly be any worse than Shu was.

…………]

…please tell me he at least knows how to call someone if he’s in trouble.

[lovehan]

We have shortcuts to my and Tattsun-senpai's numbers on the home screen.

[So. Sorta?]

[bunnii]

[.....yeah, this sounds like it could prove to be an issue in the future.]

Well-- the good news is there's still hope for him. [...] The bad news is it might get worse before it gets better.

[lovehan]

....Kagehira-senpai or Itsuki-san?

[bunnii]

[See Aira gets it.]

Itsuki. It's even more frustrating when the person in question is perfectly capable. And still almost gets himself killed on Christmas because he can't call anyone.

[Although to be fair--]

Mika-chin wasn't experienced with that sort of thing either, but that's partially Oshi-san's fault too. If you spend your time following the sort of person who uses a cup phone...

[Okay maybe it wasn't fair. Nazuna will forever be a protective older brother. But look at all this delightful insight Aira is getting into the people he admires so much!!!]

[lovehan]

[. . .]

Nito-senpai? May I ask a question that might be considered rude?

[bunnii]

[…?]

Sure. You can ask anything you want. I don’t mind.

[lovehan]

Does ES specifically hire extremely weird idols?

[bunnii]

Ahaha… it does start to look that way when you get to know some of the people we work with. Last year I was in a class with… a lot of people like that. They don’t even seem human at first glance.

But they aren’t bad people. In fact… some of them are among the most amazing, talented people I know. You just… have to get past the exterior first.

[lovehan]

I know they're all talented and amazing. Mayo-san's the phantom! He just...also like to hang around in the vents.

[bunnii]

[It’s… probably not very comforting that he can’t at least pretend to be a bit more surprised.]

Mmmnn… it’s pretty frightening, isn’t it? I might not have ever helped create Valkyrie if Itsuki wasn’t so persistent.

[Aira might appreciate the story… or at the very least he might take some comfort from it, if the strange experiences other units have had still made them as strong as they are now.]

Although he didn’t realize it at the time, I actually named the unit after him. He did leap from the second floor after all. If someone like that started chasing you out of nowhere, claiming you were his soulmate… well… you’d run too— right?

[lovehan]

[. . .]

He. He what? Of course I'd run!

[bunnii]

Sewing project and all~ of course because of that I was able to escape but…

[Yes]

I don’t know much about your unitmate yet but… you should stick with him. It might be difficult at times but I don’t think you’ll regret it. And don’t hesitate to reach out if you need advice or someone to talk to.

[Since you know. Everyone is just Like This.]

[lovehan]

[SO MUCH CONCERN HERE NITO-SENPAI suddenly his unit does not seem quite so absurd.]

I will, thank you! And I may not be able to give advice but...if you need someone to just talk to because everyone else is crazy I'm here!

[At least Ra*bits seems mostly normal.]

[bunnii]

[It’s Fine. They are all disasters but they’re still his disasters. You will understand Aira, give it some time.]

I appreciate it. I think we all have times when we really need it. I can take a look and see what books we have on technology at school too, maybe it will help.

[lovehan]

Please. You know the messages each leader gets? It took him forever to realize they were special messages.

[bunnii]

Ah-- right. Tomo-chin told me about them, even though I told him he didn't have to...

[But for a unit that's just starting out and in a situation as... unique... as ALKALOID's...]

So he thought you were all getting them and... I'm guessing he didn't even think to talk to the rest of you about them.

[lovehan]

Not until we were making plans to work with Switch and he got one of the messages.
