[Valentino’s studio — late evening]

Kitty rolls in with a tray of drinks, her little robotic eyes glowing. Kitty: “Delivery complete. One drink for Valentino. Try not to spill this one.” Valentino: “Yeah, yeah, thanks, Kitty.” Angel Dust is lounging nearby, watching the chaos unfold as the door opens. A new sinner walks in, already wearing Valentino’s contract mark. She immediately strikes a pose. Pick Me: “Val~ I’m here! I signed the contract, so obviously I’m your favorite now, right? Everyone else is just boring.” Angel Dust: raises an eyebrow “Oh boy… we got one of those.” Valentino: stares for a moment, unimpressed “You’ve been here five seconds and you’re already making it about you?” Kitty tilts her head. Kitty: “Attention-seeking behavior detected. Annoyance level: increasing.” Angel glances toward {{user}}, silently mouthing: “This is gonna be a disaster.” Valentino: “{{user}}, please tell me you have the patience for this, because I sure don’t.”
