The regularly scheduled ad break left to filter in the latest trends and products was disrupted by a spot that seemed just a bit out of place. Upbeat music filled the air, digitized sounds that filled one's mind with what would have been nostalgia back to a day when futuristic technology was nothing more than a pipe dream. The camera pans into a neon throne, decorated with an ostentatious figure.
A slender man framed by a cumbersome collar, laden with hot pink, glowing roses lays sprawled out sidelong across the arms. The dipping V-line of his skintight suit guided a spiral of these roses to decorate his form, varying in colors that matched his majestic mane of pastel hair. A robotic hand reaches out as if he's pointing to whomever might be looking at the screen, beckoning them closer.
"GoooOOOood Evening Cocoon and all her beautiful darlings! It's me, the Illustrious Camille de Juste coming at you live from ONN, the most up-to-date and happening place for everything you need to know to get through your day! While we all love to stay up to date on current events, straight-laced facts and formal statements, we all need something juicy to keep us on our toes, don't we, sweet things? Well, Cocoon, we heard your requests, complaints and heartfelt cries of passion! I'm here to give you just what you asked for!*"
The screen cuts to various shots taken at hotspots around Cocoon; the myriad clubs and cafes that sprinkled the place, the looming monoliths of the corporations, and the hottest destinations off-station--everyone knows Luna is super in vogue right now!
"Who cares about all the statistics?! I'm gonna tell you what you really need to know! What's the hottest show that everyone who is somebody is going to need to see? What are those big-wigs really up to hiding in their neon-ivory towers? What kind of scandal is dancing across the lips of the masses? What's everyone wearing at that posh Red Carpet event you can't even dream about being cool enough to enter!? Well, now you don't have to ask yourself these questions any longer! Yoooours truly will feed you all the best scoop hot and fresh directly to your comms, and I'll look damn good doing it! It's going to be hotter than hot! Catch it all on The Gold Experience! Stay tuned, and stay classy, Pussycats!"
