"Yuri and Lili's Fonder Endorsement deal"
It was a beautiful Sunday morning and the girls are invited into the Fonder Guitar factory. Full-Figured Four Records just secured a guitar endorsement deal for Yuri and Lili. It's usually the other way around but we all know how Boss Amaya does business. Anyway, with Keiko tagging along, the girls are thrilled to enter the factory knowing that they will go out of it's door with gear that is named after them and a fatter check. This is what's happening at the lobby while they are waiting for the manager to come out:
Yuri: Uhhh, wee. I guess we're uhhh, really famous now.
Lili: You bet! I was so happy that we're given this opportunity! We're really making history now!
Keiko: I'm so happy for you two. Just imagine, an instrument made to your specifications? That is awesome.
Lili: Not only that, It will be named after us too!
Yuri: Yeah, uhhh, hooray.
Keiko: Boss told us that they should be ready by the time we release our first single.
Lili: Yes! Helps with the promotion!
Yuri: Helps with the, uhhh, income too.
Keiko: It's the rockstar trifecta. Income from touring, endorsements, and records. The last one is kind of compromised due to piracy but..
Lili: Keiko!
Keiko: Alright, I won't jinx it.
Yuri: Uhhhh, yeah, this is Japan, people here are uhhhh, grateful and honorable.
Lili: Oh yeah! I read that in a blog somewhere.
Representative: Oh hi there girls!
Lili: Oh my, here's our guy!
Keiko: Well, hello there.
Yuri: Let's get it on, I'm uhhhh, hungry.
Representative: Don't worry, I was instructed to keep this short and simple because according to Ms. Amaya, you still have some other businesses to attend to.
Keiko: You bet. It's brutal.
Lili: It's well worth it though.
Representative: It's a wild world out there. Anyway, so let's start with the body shapes. Let me walk you to our showroom so that I can show you some of our prototypes and we can take it from there.
A few hours later:
Yuri: Yeah, uhhh, that's right. I want those uuhhh, pickup thingy to sound uhhh, like big.
Lili: I on the other hand would like to have a big sound with enough bark to cut through the mix.
Yuri: Yeah, we want it, uhhhh to be thick.
Representative: Hmmmm I see. You girls got some tastes.
And a few more hours later:
Keiko: Looks good to me.
Lili: Oh yes! I love the color combination and the simplicity of the electronics.
Yuri: Uhhh, we just have to wait for the final product then. Uhhhh, yeah.
Keiko: I'm very excited for my bandmates. I want to know how these instruments will change our overall sound.
Yuri: I'm actually excited to uhhhh, hear the tone thingy of those uhhh, pickup things.
Representative: Our team of master builders will make sure to have it released on the date that Ms. Amaya has specified.
Keiko: Wow, she is indeed hands on when it comes to business.
Representative: She's no champ for nothing.
Yuri: Uhhhh yeah, she was pretty big back then. In wrestling, uhhh, yeah.
Lili: You actually know that stuff?
Yuri: I watch online.
Lili: Cool!
Keiko: Anyway, It was a pleasure working with you.
Representative: Oh I had a blast! By the way, can I have an autograph? I actually have a copy of your Muscle Man Triumphant single.
Lili: Oh! Lovely! Sure!
Yuri: Just one last thing, we'll receive money for this uhhhh, right?
Representative: Not only that, you'll also get payment from the print ads and guitar show appearances that we booked you in.
Keiko: Great.
Lili: Oh the people that we'll meet on the road! Lovely!
Keiko: No rest for the wicked indeed.
Yuri: But uhhhh, we're not wicked.
Keiko: Just ride with it Yuri.
Yuri: Uhhhh, Ok.
