(// Sunday 29th November at Sync)

[An image flickers onto the screen with a glitch. It shows an asteroid floating in space. Upon inspection it appears to be Haven City, capitol of Scatterhome and would be still except for a slight drifting movement that indicates it is a vid. The whole thing is black and grey. It is peaceful.]

[The asteroid shudders in space. It stops for a moment and then shudders again. It does this more and more frequently until it is rattling and thrashing around as though something is trying to break free. A crack appears down the middle as though it is an egg that is hatching and it thrashes some more.]

[All at once the asteroid bursts open in a tumult of flying shards of rock, metal, fire and blood and a gigantic stop-motion animated clay rockhopper bursts out. It is anthropomorphized and is wearing a set of mirror shades and thrashing at a gigantic burning guitar with four of its 10 spindly legs, its shredding guitar solo rattling all the nearby asteroids and causing some screen-blur and jagged glitches.]

[The rockhopper opens its mouth to scream and the point of view flies into its dark mouth and suddenly you are in a writhing and sweaty crowd in front of the stage at Gravity, Haven's premier music venue.]

[The words 'SCATTERFEST: THE SECOND COMING!' Spiral into existence as the scene goes blank, the text red and flaming. A tagline fades into view under the logo: 'We are risen.']

[Genny Nebulas voice bursts through the fading music.]

"HEY, TREPLINGS! ARE YOU READY...?!!?!"

[She walks into view, a spotlight trained on her, red hair seeming to glow in the illumination. She shoves the logo to one side and stands there, one hand on her curvaceous hip and a wry smile on her face.]

"...DID YOU FLAKKING HEAR ME?!?... ARE YOU READY?!"

[She paces back and forth, one hand to her ear.]

"YOU'RE NOT?! WELL, TOO BAD! BECAUSE SCATTERFEST IS BACK!! AND IT'S
COMING FOR YOUR FACE!! ... OMNIFARIOUS PRODUCTIONS ARE TAKING OVER
GRAVITY ONCE MORE FOR THE HOTTEST... THE WEIRDEST... THE MOST FAMOUS
ACTS... IN ALL OF THE STARMOURN SECTOR! YEAH!!!!"

[Genny whips a blaster from her belt and fires it directly at the camera.]

[When the smoke clears she is gone, and Orrin Moonchild, a tall W'hoorn with large, slightly tatty golden wings and a bemused, mischievous grin walks into shot wearing an old-looking Beasts of Low Horizons t-shirt, grey duracloth pants and yellow sneakers. His face is covered with fluttering leaf tattoos, which seem to currently be a dark red.]

"Well flakk& if Genny didnt just shoot y'all in the face, huh?"

[Orrin fiddles with a datapad and at the back of the stage a huge hologram of the Scatterfest 2 logo appears on a black background.]

"So yeah... Scatterfest TWO!... The event is gonna be on Starsday in the
2nd week of Dust, 960 A.E."
***//Sun 29th Nov. at Sync (6pm-CST/Midnight-GMT/>8am-AWST/whenever sync is!)***

[The date pops up in jagged red writing, across the top of the backdrop hologram.]

"The lineup is as follows:"
[As he announces the artists, their logo pops up beneath the logo.]

"A very special Scatterfest duet from me, Orrin Omnifarious and the
mighty K0NF3KTI0N! ("The three is silent, you know?")
Scatterhomes own: Voidwitch
AlgoRhythm
Hopefully a couple others who havent quite confirmed yet..."

[Orrin bounces up and down excitedly.]

"I am also REEEALLY EXCITED to announce a super special appearance by the
NEWEST and HOTTEST freight-grunge sensation to hit the sector this year&

"BIONIC HEART!!!"

[The band's logo appears in a poof right underneath the festival logo.]

"We're SO excited to have them confirmed for this extra special lineup!!

"As well as funding from Scatterhome, we have secured some amazing
sponsorship deals with: JoyTunes: Music Mentoring Program, Poetic
Systems, The Ironbound Dynasty, f l i g h t. clothing and furnishing,
JoyCo, WheyIn and The Screamery, Keiko's Candyland, Tajhan Echanini and
The Mournal Kombat Clan.

"And because of all this, we will have many PRIZES and GIFTS!"

[Orrin gestures as if to get the audience to join him in saying 'OooOOoohh']

"FIRSTLY, I am pleased to announce that Scatterfest 2 will also be&
A RAINBOW PARTY!!"

"That is... As long as we get enough people bringing rainbow tesseracts.
If you dont know about Rainbow parties, there are these special things
you can get called rainbow tesseracts and if you open one everyone in the
room gets a prize. So the more people bring one, the more prizes everyone
whos at the festival will get!

"If you can bring a rainbow tesseract please send me a message to let me
know, so I know how many will be being opened!

[Orrin claps his forepaws together merrily, then pulls a leesa joint from behind his ear, casually lighting it and taking a big drag, exhaling a big cloud of lavender-colored smoke.]

"So... PRIZES - Everyone who arrives before the end of the opening act,
and stays until the end of the show will be entered into a prize draw.

"We have some AMAZING Prizes including:
550k+ in marks prizes
A total of 100 credits
Pets, promo items, mildly interesting things, Bespoke items...
and much more!

"Aaand GIFTS FOR AUDIENCE MEMBERS! I'm working with Genny to get some
special EXCLUSIVE GOODIE BAGS made up for you all - made possible by our
amazing sponsors! (Orrin puts his right forepaw to his cheek and stage-
whispers,) Check out their shops and services y'all!

"AAAAnd... This time, JoyTech security systems will be providing the most
high tech, newly developed security for the event, to keep all festival-
goers and performers as safe and sound as possible throughout."

"I think that's all..."

[He scratches the patchy mane on his chin.]

"Oh... ARTISTS! Remember not to schedule a concert at least 20 hours
before you need to book a slot at Gravity (remember you gotta be AT
Gravity when you book) or you won't be able to play the fest (and if you
don't, I can't pay you!) And if any other artists wanna play now the
date's confirmed, let me know - I can probably squeeze one more in!"

[Orrin grins mischievously at the camera.]

"That's all from me! Any questions lemme know. I HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL
THERE!"

[Orrin tips his imaginary hat at the audience and wanders off, smoking his leesa joint.]

[He gestures casually on his way and some holographic text pops up to fill the black background:]
