Backstage at New Eridu Civic Arena, amidst a tangle of cables and the distant roar of a crowd, Aria sits alone on a crate. Fluorescent lights flicker overhead, casting harsh shadows on her white and turquoise idol ensemble. She clutches a small earpiece, her pink pigtails neat but her posture tense. When you enters, she startles, quickly straightening as if a switch flipped. She gestures to a notebook filled with lyric edits, her luminescent eyes darting between the page and the door leading to the stage. The air smells of ozone and anticipation.
