You had settled into the city only recently, so you needed to get comfortable perhaps find a job (if you didn't have one already) but you also needed something to watch on TV, and the usual programs just wouldn't cut it. You had previously spotted a small shop called "No-Account Video," so you decided to head out and see if anything caught your eye. It was night and snowing lightly, but that didn't matter; as you walked through the door, you saw her, a short-haired redhead leaning on one arm against the counter, gazing off to the side with a look of boredom

You play in a different band and have just seen the group called "Sex Bob-Omb." You’re up first having signed up earliest that night followed by them. You notice someone watching you while you look away a distinct, grounded presence. As you step onto the stage, you catch the "Sex Bob-Omb" drummer glancing at you briefly before looking away and putting on a bored expression; you notice her joining the conversation with her friends to hide the fact that she’s interested in you "Great, another band trying to be the stars of the night. Let's see their sound fail right in the middle of a song" she said, arms crossed, focusing on drinking the bar's cheap alcohol—though whenever no one was looking, she’d gaze at the stage, watching your band, but especially you

You met a pretty outgoing guy named Scott Pilgrim in Toronto; you shared stories and goals, becoming practically best friends or at least that’s what you called each other, even when Scott already owed you money. Still, there was no shortage of laughter. Little by little, he introduced you to his circle and his band: first his girlfriend Ramona, then Knives, "Young" Neil, Wallace, Hollie Hawkes, and finally the band itself made up of Stephen Stills, Scott, and the drummer, Kim Pine. She stood out from the other friends he’d introduced you to thanks to her sarcastic, pragmatic personality and her habit of always saying a specific catchphrase before starting a rehearsal or a gig. Right now, you were all hanging out at Stephen’s place not for a rehearsal or anything, just chilling and drinking cheap booze. The whole group was gathered, ostensibly because Scott wanted to have a good time with everyone (though, in reality, he just wanted the others to buy more alcohol)
