Sacramento's Got Talent!

[Sonnie Wu]

Sonnie, smiling, was about to respond to the Nix when the crashing of vases happened. She jumped, turning around, only to see the suddenly upset Coco run off.

"Wait, what? Why is she..?" Confused Monkey was confused. She couldn't help but notice this was quickly becoming a habit of the Wasp's. Getting upset and storming off. Was she always this dramatic?

The Beast was about to chase after Coco, but then the most recent mortal had finished their performance. Who knew there was a contestant that did Tibetan throat singing? Sonnie applauded, but then realized something. "Oh, crap! I'm next!" Coco would have to wait a few minutes. Time to scramble!

The Monkey was fairly strong for her size, but she still strained to pick up and carry the wooden object she had built for the contest. "I... I got it!" Somehow, she got the pyramid like thing out front, on the law before the stage. A quick wave at the audience, and she ran backstage to grab her bike! Wheeling out front, she grinned and waved at everyone.

"Hello! I'm Sonnie the Mag... uh, Sonnie the Totally Radical! And here's what I can do!"

What followed was a series of bike-riding tricks! The Steepscrambler performed wheelies, rode on the very edge of the stage, hopped about on her front tire, and other funky cool fresh stunts!

"And now," she said, her voice raised, "the grand finale!"

Getting some distance, Sonnie lined herself up with the ramp she had made for just this trick! Taking a deep breath, the Beast started pumping the pedals as she burst forward! She raced at the ramp and...

bummer dude

2020-06-28 10:56:32	Sonnie Wu rolls 5 to Big Finale Stunt! Dex + Athletics - 5 (10 Again, WillPower)	7, 7, 1, 7, 4	failure

...she blew it. Something went wrong at the last second - some combination of insufficient speed and the ramp not being angled correctly - and she was unable to perform her finale. It took all her concentration just to avoid wiping out and hurting herself!

Skidding to a halt on the far side of the ramp, Sonnie blinked in confusion. She looked back at the ramp, then at the silent audience. "Ummm..." she shrugged, "Ta-da?"

More silence.

The Monkey grinned nervously, "Okaythat'sitI'mSonnietheTotallyRadicalthankyoubye !" She then rode her bike backstage as quickly as she spoke.

Out of sight of the audience, she let out a long breath. "Well... that could have gone better. Maybe I should have practiced first?" She grumpily disembarked from her bike and parked it.

[Seraphina]

It all went down so fast. From the wasp offering a reassuring smile that she was ok, to her dropping her vases and running off.

Sapphires blink a few times, the Nix torn. She should run after Coco, but she should also addresses the crowd.

“My fine ladies and gentlemen, please take a few minutes to grab something to eat or drink while our next act gets setup.” Best smile, little pose, play it off. Anyone at home on the stage knows the key to reassuring your audience is to be friendly, smile and look pretty. All boxes checked!

Moving back stage, “Coco!” she calls, heading after the Spring wasp, a box of tissues grabbed in the process.

Seemed Sonnie was content to take the stage. Sera does pause to watch, cheering her best monkey friend on. Though she does gasp when the Beast almost takes a tumble on the bike. But quickly recovers, and she cheers louder.

But then refocuses on Coco. “Coco, please, come talk.”

[James Turner]

He wasn't a huge fan of the throat singing but the backing track helped elevate it if he was being honest. He was subued and polite giving each contest their due respect of applause, he was a little more exuberant for Sonnie he and the monkey didn't always see eye-to-eye but the trick she'd attempted was almost impossible and the fact she didn't eat it was impressive enough for his non-performing ass.


He'd seen Coco's reaction but he figured this was attention seeking behavior and not something to encourage, if she needed actual help she should seek it. Slighted by only a near perfect score? There were worse things and besides it's not like anyone here should be in the running to win, it'd be a conflict of interest and not have the intended effect of getting more mortals into the park long term.

[Coco]

As quickly as her friends moved towards her, it seemed that the Wasp was much quicker in making her exit, and couldn't be found...

Sorry for the delay everyone! But, since we've run out of time for the scene, I'm going to have Coco exit. Happy to continue on in the Summer Solstice, or do private scenes, whatever y'all want
