Re: THE POODLE
The unlikely hero of the whole thing... the one person who still honestly couldn't believe she lasted as long as she had... The Poodle walked over to Bea, giving her an excited, grateful hug.
She waited until the drumroll began, before flicking open a big, thick latch on the back of her mask before removing it to reveal the smiling, nervous daughter of Rocket & Sin, Katarina!
Hair slicked back with sweat, she chuckled and rolled her eyes. "Ohmygod, I can BREATHE again! That thing was crazy hot!" She looked at the audience, giving a sweetly shy wave. "Heh. I was headbanging so much they had to build this latch onto the mask so it wouldn't go flying off mid-performance. Anyway... I just kinda did this as a joke. Really. I thought it'd be hilarious to see my family and friends' faces when they saw me. I didn't expect to make it to the second flarkin' week, much less the d'ast finals. Ms. Bale?" She said, looking at Skylar and giving her a respectful bow. "I say this with all the respect in the world, but... I really don't want a career in music. I'm happy being a Young Avenger and just... goofing around with some music ideas with my home computer. But thank you. Hearing you say that... that was the most confident I'd felt in my life."
