Good Morning, Roscaelifer/Story/Spotlight Theater

Spotlight Theater

Actorboo: Push on!! Fight!!

Little Bangboos: Push...? Fight...

Actorboo: CUT! Get it together! Even extras are actors! We gotta take this seriously...

Director Boo: Hey!! What do you mean "cut"? Who put you in the director's chair?!

Actorboo: Hello, Director. I'm a temp actor. We're on break, so I figured I'd help everyone run through their lines...

Director Boo: Run lines? You're just an extra...

Captain Boo: Sorry about this, Director. This is the intern I brought in... The kid's always been into theater, so I was hoping you could give him a shot...

Director Boo: Alright, I see... Let's simulate a little scenario, then: You're walking down Beckford Street, minding your own business, when suddenly the En-Nah Gang rolls up on you. What do you say?

Actorboo: Big brothers and sisters, happy Gilded Carrot Day! Let's talk this out, yeah?

Director Boo: What's with that...? Your emotions are totally off! Hey you, over there. Show him how it's done!

Dramaboo: Ehn-na-ehn-na? Ehn-na uh-nu-na?

Director Boo: You see that? Now THAT'S a performance! That's the "authentic sound, authentic sights, and authentic senses" I've been emphasising all this while!

Actorboo: Ummm, you're really good at this authentic thing, senior.

Director Boo: Learned anything yet? Alright, let's try another scene: You're getting mugged when Lady Sunbringer swoops in outta nowhere and rescues you. Now, what will you say?

Actorboo: Thank you! O' Great Lady Sunbringer!

Dramaboo: No, no, no... It should be: "Ehn nu wah-dah! Nah en-uh-eh na!"

Director Boo: Absolutely perfect! The role's all yours. And you! Yeah, you might not have much talent, but since the Captain vouched for you, I'll assign you a character that's tailor-made for you!

Actorboo takes the script the director hands him and starts reading carefully: "Under the cover of night, you play an En-Nah Gang member Tapeboo, who gets knocked out by an Airspace Patrol agent. After that, you'll be lying in the background until the director yells 'cut.'"

Actorboo: Uh... this really is... tailor-made for me... Speaking of which, what's your character, senior?

Dramaboo: Oh, I'll be playing the Airspace Patrol agent who takes you down with one shot.

(Continue to A Rigid Script)

A Rigid Script

Actorboo stares at this script with zero room for creative expression, and falls deep in thought: Should he stick to the script, or take a shot at improvising and showing off his own talent?

Stick to the Script

Actorboo decides to stick to the script and follow the director's lead. Once all departments are ready, the director finally begins the shoot.

Director Boo: "Bangboo Gang-boo" Act 1, Scene 4. Action!

Big Boss Boo, that guy they call "Tapeboo" just busted in!

Movie Star Boo: You think you're tough? What's the point of being good at fighting eh-nyway?

Movie Star Boo: You need power and connections to survive in these streets. Which island you from?

Actorboo: Name's Tapeboo, from Glitch Alley. You can call me Big Tape — I'm cool with it.

Movie Star Boo: Heh, at the end of the day, you're just a small nobody.

Big Boss Boo, we got trouble! This punk brought the Airspace Patrol with him!

Movie Star Boo: You little punk, you trying to play me?

The telltale sound of electrobullets rings out and the special-effects rigging on Actorboo goes off, as the Airspace Patrol agent played by Dramaboo springs into action and stuns him.

Dramaboo: Give it up! The place is crawling with Lady Sunbringer's people!

Movie Star Boo: Oh yeah? I ain't scared! Even if I'm shutting down, I'm taking you Airspace Patrol folks down with me!

Dramaboo: That's enough! That Tapeboo there has already crashed. It's game over!

Movie Star Boo: I don't care! I wanna keep playing! Let's race. Whoever can reassemble their battery back into their bodies before they shut down wins.

Movie Star Boo: If not, I'll burn all of Roscaelifer to the ground!

Dramaboo: Okay... Calm down... I'll play with you...

Considering the script calls for playing a crashed Bangboo, Actorboo just put himself into sleep mode right there on stage.

Sparks are flying from the Bangboo removing and reassembling their batteries, igniting the backdrop. The entire stage is about to go up in flames before his very eyes. Will Actorboo keep up with the performance until the director yells "cut," or bail and save his own skin?

(Continue to A Fiery Performance)

Improvise

Actorboo decides to deviate from the original script. As each department wraps up its preparation, the director yells his commands.

Director Boo: "Bangboo Gang-boo" Act 1, Scene 4. Action!

Big Boss Boo, that guy they call "Tapeboo" just busted in!

Movie Star Boo: Oh? You think you're tough?

Actorboo: Tough? What's the point of being good at fighting eh-nyway? You need power and connections to survive in these streets. Which island you from?

Movie Star Boo: Huh? I... I'm Boo—Boo...

Actorboo: Heh, at the end of the day, you're just a small nobody.

Movie Star Boo: Wait, wait. He's saying all my lines.

Uh... Big Boss Boo, will that punk lead the folks from Airspace Patrol here?

The telltale sound of electrobullets rings out and the special-effects rigging on Actorboo goes off. Though the Airspace Patrol agent played by Dramaboo makes his entrance, Actorboo won't just play dead like that, convulsing and groaning while lying on the floor...

Actorboo: You little punk, you trying to play me?

Director Boo: Cut. CUT! What's going on here? Hey you, the kid the captain brought in. Who told you to steal lines?

Actorboo: Here's the thing, Director. My character's here to cause trouble, so stealing lines will really show how aggressive and proactive he is.

Director Boo: Proactive my carrot! You're just supposed to come in, drop a couple of threats, get knocked down, and finally shut down. How come you keep coming back like you're stuck on a never-ending update loop?!

Actorboo: It's precisely because of this character's proactive nature, his burning obsession, that keeps him groaning and struggling even after getting shot.

Director Boo: Fine! Security! Let this punk experience what real groaning and struggling sounds like.

Actorboo gets roughed up by the security Bangboo and tossed out of the Bangboo Theater.

Actorboo: I don't get it... where did I even mess up...

Captain Boo: Don't be too down. Here, have this book. I respect you sticking to your performance principles, but you gotta level up those acting skills. That's how you get people to recognize your artistic direction.

Actorboo takes the book and sees the title: The Bangboo's Art of Self-Diagnosis.

Actorboo: Captain, I get what you're saying, but why's this a book about mechanics? Shouldn't you be handing me some kind of acting guide right now?

Captain Boo: Self-diagnosis and a Bangboo actor's logic core are one and the same. Both require looking inward for answers. Anyway, that's enough talk. I gotta go bring a couple crates of batteries to the director and ask for forgiveness...

The moment Captain Boo left, a mysterious Bangboo strolls up to Actorboo, clapping as he approaches.

Mysterious Bangboo: Not bad. I just watched your performance from the corner of the theater. How do I put this? It was fiery, passionate, touching and striking all at once.

Actorboo: Uh... Can I help you?

Mysterious Bangboo: Here's the deal — Airspace Patrol's short of a top-tier undercover agent with serious acting chops. We need someone to infiltrate the real En-Nah Gang and dig up intel for us.

Mysterious Bangboo: I wonder if you'd be interested in putting that acting talent of yours to work on a different stage? One that's way more dangerous, but also much more important?

(Continue to Another Stage)

A Fiery Performance

Get Up and Run

The flames blaze thorugh the theater, and Actorboo scrambles to his feet, trying to make a break for it. But at this moment, a burnt wire comes crashing down, landing right on his head. the electric current rips through him, and his body starts convulsing.

Captain Boo: Director, get that kid down from there quick! He's about to get fried!

Director Boo: No, no, no. Nobody move! The show's not over yet! This is Lady Sunbringer's way of giving us an opportunity, and we gotta make the best use of it.

Director Boo: Look at that emotion going from 0 to 100 in a flash! That's what you call a "sudden epiphany"! And those exaggerated moves? I haven't seen a physical performance this good since the silent film era.

Captain Boo: Stop with the commentary! One more shock and he's gonna get physically blasted apart!

Actorboo: En-neh wah-dah, en-neh wah-dah, en-neh wah-blah-dah!

Captain Boo: See? His language module's fried!

Director Boo: No, he's not blabbering nonsense — this is the legendary flow verse! Along with the explosions in the back, that's what they call "an explosive performance"! Captain, my friend, I think you just introduced me to a comedic genius.

Captain Boo: I... I'm not... You... Urgh.

Finally, the captain braves the stage to rescue Actorboo. After his repairs are complete, the director extends him an invitation to star as the lead in his comedy, recreating that "electrifying" performance from before.

But Captain Boo tracks down Actorboo to voice his own concerns...

Captain Boo: Kid, I get it — this is a rare opportunity. But relying on getting shocked to recreate the whole routine isn't sustainable in the long term. We still gotta sharpen our actual acting abilities.

With that, the Captain handed over a book. Actorboo glances down at the title: The Bangboo's Art of Self-Diagnosis.

Actorboo: Captain, I get what you're saying, but why's this a book about mechanics? Shouldn't you be handing me some kind of acting guide right now?

Captain Boo: Self-diagnosis and a Bangboo actor's logic core are one and the same. Both require looking inward for answers. I hope that in your future, you can learn from this, understand it, and apply what you've learned.

Actorboo glances at the book in the Captain's hand, remembering the director's invitation. Should he accept it and dive into an abstract performance he doesn't even understand? Or take the book, look inward, and sharpen his craft?

(Continue to The Actor's Crossroads)

Keep Performing

The crackling fire's spreading voraciously, and Actorboo's just lying there on stage, completely still. It's as if he really crashed, letting the flames devour the whole stage and close in around him.

(Hold — Keep Performing)

Anxious Audience Member: Fire! Fire! We gotta get out of here!

Calm Audience Member: Stop making a fuss. This must be part of the act.

Captivated Audience Member: That's true art right here!

The flames tear through the stage and burn it down to ashes. When everyone finally puts out the fire, they find Actorboo still lying there, completely motionless.

Dramaboo: Hey buddy, you good?

Actorboo: *Cough, cough...* So, did the director yell "cut" yet?

Director Boo: Cut! Now that's what I call a real performer! He can handle anything that comes his way!

The theater erupts in thunderous applause. Everyone is moved by that professional spirit, never breaking character until the director gives his cue.

Actorboo's performance clips are posted on the Interboo by the stage manager. Dubbed with a catchy tune, interwoven with shots of the audience in tears, and the headline "Intense Professionalism Wins Over Renowned Director," it becomes an iconic moment that goes viral.

Later, Actorboo does all kinds of interviews, sharing his experience. He can't help but feel a little smug about it.

Actorboo: I've been baked at 500 degrees before. Have you?

Actorboo: I've laid down on every stage in Roscaelifer. Have you?

Actorboo: I've been through a major fire when I was just a newbie. Have you?

(Go to Ending 2)

The Actor's Crossroads

Keep Honing His Craft

Actorboo chooses to accept Captain Boo's gift and turns down the director's offer. Through his hard work, he hunts down the right gigs and levels up his acting abilities using what he learned from the book.

But after a while, Actorboo couldn't help but start second-guessing their decision: would anyone ever really notice him when he's stuck playing small-time roles? While he's mulling it over, a mysterious Bangboo comes dropping by.

Mysterious Bangboo: Not bad. I just watched your performance from the corner of the theater. How do I put this? It was fiery, passionate, touching and striking all at once.

Actorboo: Uh... Can I help you?

Mysterious Bangboo: Here's the deal — Airspace Patrol's short of a top-tier undercover agent with serious acting chops. We need someone to infiltrate the real En-Nah Gang and dig up intel for us.

Mysterious Bangboo: I wonder if you'd be interested in putting that acting talent of yours to work on a different stage? One that's way more dangerous, but also much more important?

Facing the Mysterious Airspace Patrol Bangboo's invitation, Actorboo looks at the copy of "The Bangboo's Art of Self-Diagnosis" left behind by Captain Boo and falls into deep thought. Should he stick with his acting career? Or accept the Airspace Patrol Bangboo's offer?

(Same choices as Another Stage)

Accept the Director's Invitation

Actorboo hands the book back to the Captain, and tells the Captain of his decision.

Actorboo: Sorry, Captain...

Actorboo: Failure's been a constant presence throughout our lives. That's just fate.

Actorboo: Now that this character's right in front of me, I gotta ask myself — is this my shot? My once-in-a-lifetime chance?

Captain Boo: I understand.

Captain Boo: Child, on the day you rolled down the production line, all of Beckford Street cheered your name — "Actorboo."

Captain Boo: I just hope you don't lose sight of what you started this for, and don't make choices you'll regret.

Actorboo: I got it! Thanks, Captain!

(Go to Ending 1)

Another Stage

Faced with the Mysterious Airspace Patrol Bangboo's invitation, Actorboo looks at the copy of "The Bangboo's Art of Self-Diagnosis" left behind by Captain Boo and falls into deep thought. Should he stick with his acting career? Or accept the Airspace Patrol Bangboo's offer?

Become an Undercover Agent (timed)

Actorboo chooses to join the Airspace Patrol, infiltrating the En-nah Gang as an undercover agent under the code name "Fizzy Nitro-Fuel." He solves all kinds of trouble for the gang boss "Bomb Cola," gradually climbing his way up to become the gang's second-in-command.

While sorting through some old files with his underlings, Actorboo stumbles upon a certain dossier. It's about a fellow actor he had crossed paths with before — Dramaboo. But from what he remembers, that guy had already joined Airspace Patrol and climbed all the way to the rank of a Senior Investigator Bangboo.

Actorboo: Wait... isn't that the Airspace Patrol commander from TV...?

Henchman Boo: Yo, you know 'em? This is one of our gang's top enforcers, codename "Bouncy Milky Softy and Sticky-Gooey."

Actorboo: Yeah, we were extras together on set back in the day...

Henchman Boo: Boss sent him to infiltrate the entertainment industry before, but the industry was way too shady, so Boss had no choice but to arrange for him to join the Airspace Patrol instead.

Henchman Boo: Don't tell the boss it was me who told you this...

Actorboo, realizing there's a mole in the Airspace Patrol, urgently contacts his handler. Little does he know, it was Dramaboo himself who picks up the phone.

Turns out, after his promotion, he had also stumbled across Actorboo's file by chance.

The two Bangboo agree to meet on a rooftop in Roscaelifer, determined to settle their beef once and for all.

Dramaboo: Long time no see. Never thought the En-Nah Gang's second-in-command, the legendary "Fizzy Nitro-Fuel," would turn out to be an undercover agent for the Airspace Patrol...

Actorboo: I never would've guessed the Airspace Patrol's senior investigator was a mole planted by the En-Nah Gang, "Bouncy Milky Softy and Sticky-Gooey."

Dramaboo: Heh, you undercover types are all the same — always hanging out on rooftops.

Actorboo: Unlike you, I've got nothing to hide.

Dramaboo: My friend, give me a chance. I didn't have a choice before, but now I wanna be a good Bangboo.

(Continue to Rooftop Chat)

Keep Pursuing Acting

Actorboo turns down the mysterious Bangboo's generous offer, choosing instead to keep grinding on their craft. He then spends ears hustling at the Spotlight Theater. One day, his professional journey catches the eye of some major investors...

Captain Boo: Hey kiddo, I found two production companies this time to adapt your story into a show. The bigger studio can provide more investment, but they call the shots regarding casting the lead role. Basically, they want to use this production to build up their celebrity influencer...

Captain Boo: But there's this indie studio that heard your story and thinks you're the only one who can star in it and tell your own tale. Problem is, they're financially limited, so we gotta pitch in too.

Actorboo: Hmm... What do you think, Captain?

Captain Boo: I've got your back, no matter what. Whether you feel it's enough just to get your story out to the world, or if you'd rather tell it yourself as an actor, either way sounds like a good decision.

(Continue to "My Story")

"My Story"

After mulling it over for a bit, Actorboo steps out the door with some encouragement from his friends at the theater. Now, should he secure the backing of a major production company or go with an indie studio?

Go with the Indie Studio

Actorboo chooses to go with an independent production company, and together they create, recharge, and polish the script and performance plan over and over again. They strive to perfectl present the stories of the past within budget constraints. Finally, the day of the first show arrives.

Actorboo: Bangboo won't help Bangboo Belts, Bangboo Belts offers a Bangboo help, Bangboo's scared of getting bound by Bangboo Belts...

Captain Boo: Hey, you're still warming up? The show's about to start!

Actorboo: I'm... I'm kinda nervous.

Captain Boo: Turn down the voltage and frequency a bit. Sure, it's not the biggest set, but everyone here's either a friend or a fan of yours. Soak it all in — you've earned this moment.

Actorboo: Alright, let's get this show started!

(Go to Ending 5)

Go with the Major Company

Actorboo lands a deal with a major production company, but once they start working together, it becomes clear they totally miss the point of his story. Their whole focus is on how to boost the popularity of their rising stars.

Under pressure from the investors, Actorboo rewrites hos own tory to match the pre-cast actor's preferences. But the amateur's trash-tier acting and reliance on voice actors dubbing his lines from offstage get dragged by audiences unanimously. Completely dejected, Actorboo slinks back to the Spotlight Theater.

Mysterious Bangboo: Hey, taking a break?

Actorboo: Yeah... just finished the curtain call...

Mysterious Bangboo: I watched that play you were in before, and how do I put this... It was like swallowing a stack of needles, hearing nails being dragged across a chalkboard, and sitting on a...

Actorboo: Alright, alright. So what brings you here this time?

Mysterious Bangboo: Same deal as before. Airspace Patrol's short of a top-tier undercover agent with serious acting chops. We need someone to infiltrate the real En-Nah Gang and dig up intel for us.

Mysterious Bangboo: You're looking pretty rough. Feels like you still haven't bounced back from that last loss.

Mysterious Bangboo: If you ask me, your acting talent was always meant for this kind of stage. It's way more real, way more thrilling. What do you think?

(Continue to Another Stage - Become an Undercover Agent)

Rooftop Chat

Facing this former colleague from the film set, now an undercover agent for the opposing En-Nah Gang, Actorboo falls into deep thought — should he give Dramaboo a chance to turn over a new leaf?

Bring Him to Justice

Dramaboo: My friend, give me a chance. I didn't have a choice before, but now I wanna be a good Bangboo.

Actorboo: Sure, tell that to Lady Sunbringer. Let's see if she'll let you be a good Bangboo.

Dramaboo: Looks like there's no room for discussion, is there?

Actorboo: Sorry, I'm an Airspace Patrol officer.

Actorboo escorts Dramaboo to the Airspace Patrol precinct, but blows his cover in the process. Before long, the En-Nah Gang snatches him up and puts him through all kinds of hell...

Henchman Boo: Sorry, Boss' orders.

Actorboo: Ehn na nu ne-ne-ne—

Henchman Boo: This super-mega-ultra-enhanced editon of "The Port Peak" really is the scariest movie in all of New Eridu... After watching it, even Boss will come to my room lateat night clutching his pillow! I'll keep playing it~

Actorboo: Ehnenenene—

Henchman Boo: Hey, is there anything you'd like to say? I'm a little scared now too...

Actorboo: What do you... You... gotta ask me something first...

Henchman Boo: Oh right. What should I ask? Boss just told me to bring you here to watch the videotape. Whatever, let's just finish watching it. If you get scared, you can hold on to me...

The horrifying visuals causes Actorboo to crash completely. What happened when he was out remains a mystery, but when he reboots and comes to, he finds himself on the surface of New Eridu...

(Go to Ending 3)

Give Him a Chance

Actorboo: I could give you a chance, but there's a catch. You'll be taking orders from me now...

Dramaboo: I'll do anything, "Fizzy Nitro-Fuel." But what exactly do you need me to do?

Actorboo: Look, Roscaelifer's so big. Imagine how many batteries it could produce!

Dramaboo: Beats me, but it's gotta be a lot...

Actorboo: The way I see it, with me calling the shots and you backing me up, we can get the En-nah Gang handling the production and Airspace Patrol greasing the wheels. With everything running smoothly and orderly, we'd never run short on batteries again. Any flavor we want.

Actorboo: I did the math. We can get ten crates in a month. Ten months, a hundred. And after that... Heh heh heh...

Dramaboo: You mean a million batteries?

Actorboo: No, no, no~

Dramaboo: You mean five million batteries? C'mon man, quit joking around, "Fizzy Nitro-Fuel"...

Actorboo: Dream bigger! A hundred times of that. Five hundred million! When that happens, even Lady Sunbringer's TV remote will be using our batteries!

(Go to Ending 4)

Ending 1: Actually, I'm an Actor

Actually, I'd rather be an actor...

After accepting the director's invitation, Actorboo chomps down on an Ether Battery before every performance to recreate that state of electric shock.

It wasn't long before Actorboo's performance video blew up online, earning him his shot of fame on the Interboo. But copycats begin to swarm in fast, attempting even more dangerous stunts.

To compete with them, Actorboo starts biting lighters, Ether explosives, and even high-voltage wires, but his popularity fades fast. His personal account is also banned for dangerous and low-quality content. A few years later, no one even remembers who Actorboo was anymore...

Reporterboo: Hello there. We're here shooting a documentary for Spotlight Theater. We heard that you used to be an influencer on the Interboo?

Reporterboo: You've attracted audiences through a lot of bizarre performances. How would you review your entertainment career?

Actorboo: Hmm...

Actorboo: Actually, I'd rather be an actor...

(The End)

Ending 2: Playing Dead

Actorboo lies on center stage, showing off that perfectly malleable form, quietly soaking in the audience's praise.

Curious Onlooker: Hey, is that the viral lying-in-the-fire Bangboo?

Serious Audience Member: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right! He's so good at playing dead. Looks like he actually shut down or something.

Impressed Audience Member: That emotion is so on point! I'm so touched I might just cry!

Impressed Audience Member: That aura... It's like being possessed by Lady Sunbringer herself.

Disgruntled Audience Member: Watch your mouth! Don't be disrespectful, Lady Sunbringer's still alive and well!

Actorboo lies on center stage, showing off that perfectly malleable form, quietly soaking in the audience's praise.

People gradually forgot Actorboo's real name, instead calling him by his performance style: Shutdown.

(The End)

Ending 3: Detective From the Skies

The horrifying visuals causes Actorboo to crash completely. What happened when he was out remains a mystery, but when he reboots and comes to, he finds himself on the surface of New Eridu...

Kind Resident: Hey! You okay? Is anyone there? Looks like there's a Bangboo with faulty software here!

Actorboo: Ehn-nu na... (Wait... Where am I...?)

Cool-Headed Resident: Let's notify Public Security first. Sixth Street's got a quick response time, and I just saw Officer Qingyi nearby, too. Oh yeah, do you remember your name?

Actorboo: Ehn nu? (Public Security? Shouldn't you be informing Airspace Patrol? Wait, what was my name again?)

Gentle Resident: You're safe now, little Bangboo! We'll protect you until the Public Security officers arrive!

Kind Resident: Oh right, there's a video store down the street. They're really good with Bangboo too. Shall we send him there instead?

Actorboo: Eh nah?! (Send me away?!)

Cool-Headed Resident: Who're you sending away? Look at that getup. He's obviously a Bangboo actor that escaped from some theater troupe.

Actorboo: Eh nu, neh-na nuh ah. (Wait, I seem to recall that I'm an actor... right? So... is this just another scene?)

Not long after, a Bangboo dressed as a detective began appearing around Sixth Street. Nobody knew where he came from. All they heard was that whenever the moon shone bright and the stars are sparse, he would sit alone atop a building, gazing up at a certain spot in the night sky.

(The End)

Ending 4: Nitro-Fuel Godfather

"Nitro-Fuel Godfather"

With the help of Dramaboo "Bouncy Milky Softy and Sticky-Gooey," Actorboo quickly replaces the boss of the En-Nah Gang. Leveraging connections inside the Airspace Patrol, he opens up factories and takes over many shops.

Later on, they even replace all the senior members of the organization with undercover agents from Airspace Patrol. Together, they transform the En-nah Gang into a legitimate, law-abiding operation, maintaining long-term peace and stability across Roscaelifer.

Merchantboo: I'll do whatever you want, just help me out, please. I can give you anything you need.

Actorboo: We've known each other for years, but this is the first time you've come to me. I can't even remember the last time we had electric scones together. Just cut to the chase and tell me what you need. You never wanted my friendship. You're afraid of owing me a favor.

Merchantboo: Sorry, it's mainly about dodging some business risks.

Actorboo: I get it. You made your fortune in Roscaelifer, and your business is booming. You don't need a friend like me anymore.

Actorboo: But now you come to me and say, "Actorboo, give me justice." Yet you show no respect, don't treat me like a friend, and you won't even call me...

Actorboo: "Nitro-Fuel Godfather."

Actorboo: Show our guest out, "Bouncy Milky Softy and Sticky-Gooey." I've got a wedding to attend.

Merchantboo: Actorboo, please, listen to me... Wait, no, I mean "Nitro-Fuel Godfather"...

Dramaboo: I'd get out of here if I were you... Before he really loses it.

(The End)

Ending 5: Theater Virtuoso

Welcome, everyone. Today's performance is titled: "My Story."

Dazzling lights flash across the stage while deafening cheers echo throughout the halls. Everything on stage feels both familiar and strange.

(Hold — Take the Stage)

Within this little theater, the tiny Bangboo bodies have embodied countless roles. From En-Nah Gang villains to Airspace Patrol heroes; from raving lunatics to wise sages...

Yet among these countless characters, the one thing missing is the actor themselves. Actorboo suddenly recalls what the director said when he first arrived at the theater: "authentic sound, authentic sights, and authentic senses"...

(Hold — Take the Stage)

It's precisely because actors are so versatile that playing "themselves" becomes especially challenging. But that's also what makes this grand performance — with the self as the Protagonist — feel so beautifully romantic.

Just then, an actor who had removed their mask slowly steps forward onto the center stage from behind the curtain.

(Hold — Take the Stage)

Actorboo: Welcome, everyone. Today's performance is titled: "My Story."

Actorboo successfully portrays himself on stage — as the Protagonist, as an actor of Roscaelifer.

(The End)
