Attention Whore

In Promo by Ether

“I knew a girl in high school that had to steal the spotlight wherever she went.”

“If the focus wasn’t on her, she stole your attention from whatever you were doing and made damn sure you were looking at her. It’s like she couldn’t spend one moment without having people paying attention to her in some capacity.”

“Naturally, she tried scoring a spot in a couple school plays, hoping that her performances on the auditorium would net her a place in Hollywood.”

“She might’ve been a spotlight hog, but she was a terrible actor. She couldn’t play as anyone else but herself, which meant she couldn’t get any roles outside of bit parts.”

“Her not nabbing a major part upset her to no end. She wanted to be the star and she was willing to do whatever it took to get what she wanted.”

“Even if it meant eliminating the talent and understudies.”

“Her big plan? Light the whole stage on fucking fire with everyone in it. There weren’t any casualties or injuries, but the whole production was canceled until the auditorium could be rebuilt.”

“Nobody could figure out who did it until the dumb bitch outed herself. She thought it would garner her more attention and force the producer to give her a starring role.”

“Needless to say, she was arrested and sentenced to thirty years in prison.”

“She isn’t the only one I know that can’t stand being out of the spotlight. One Luke Storm is just as desperate to get people to pay attention to him.”

“You couldn’t stand being the third wheel of bMf, could you? No, you had to be the star of the show. You had to have the spotlight all to yourself and ruin what was an unstoppable trio.”

“So you went and called Goro Nakamura. You started the fire that burned the bridge between your former allies in order to worm your way back in the limelight.”

“But that wasn’t enough. You were still being ignored even after starting the fire. So after Zero kicked your ass, you had to nose your way into Jet Set Radio’s mess and have Simon arrested.”

“You just can’t stay in your own fucking lane, can you Luke? No, you have to get involved in other people’s fucking business because you can’t stand being ignored for one second.”

“It’s just like a Z list actor to weasel his way into a scene where he’s not wanted. You ruin everything you’re involved with just by demanding the camera be pointed at you.”

“The fire in the auditorium that you’ve started has come back to burn you more than once. It burned you after Pyre betrayed bMf before you could make your intentions clear.”

“It burned you when Zero came after you like a man possessed and beat your face in to unrecognition.”

“And now it’ll burn you when me and Tag chew you up and fuck you raw.”

“When we finish with you, everybody will remember you as just another stupid bitch.”
