The Story So Far...

You can solve it the same way any Desire solves a problem! By transforming as many people as you can get in your clutches until one of them fixes things for you~

Hey, you're a star - you're not here to sweat the little details. You've got people for that. Or you will soon, anyway. You snap your fingers, and your Dancers immediately break formation to strut past you, giving you a delightful view of their swaying rears as they vanish up the corridor. They'll fetch a few 'interested' participants in your new luxury convoy for you. You just need to- just need to...

Ngh. You gasp, doubling over as an intense feeling of nausea washes over you for a second. That pang in your heart again. It's getting harder to keep it down. You need to get to your Lair. No more time for messing around. Come on, keep it together. Deep breaths. Deeep breaths. Okay.

Your Punk, still a little off-balance from the reward you gave her, rushes to your side, offering her body to support yours. If any of your loving fans were here, you might have refused her - you don't want to look weak in front of them. But since it's just the two of you, you indulge her, taking the strength you need to stay standing as the nausea begins to fade.

"A stage," you grunt to her. "I need a stage."

She nods, doing her best to walk you down the hall. You leave navigation to her, focusing yourself on regaining control as you feel another throb of need in your chest. No. You won't let it happen here. Not yet. You can't let her escape you. You won't allow it.

"Hey! I don't know who you think you are, but-!"

"Get off me!"

"A-are you a Desire? No, no, let me go, I swear I won't tell the Serenities you're here!"

"Look, just let him go, okay? I'll do whatever you want..."

These are the cries that reach your ears as your lovely Dancers 'escort' a few lucky people from outside into the theatre. You're not entirely sure where they grabbed them or how they did so, and honestly, you don't care. They've brought you a professional looking business woman, an angry looking gentleman in an unseasonable coat, and- oho, a couple on a date, perhaps? Man and woman who look very fond of one another. How sweet. Why, it makes you want to burst into song!

So you do~ You sing, and your sing, and you sing. Your pour your twisted, greedy heart into the song. You let your passions spill fourth, burning with need and want, allow it all to ignite into a burning, blazing flame of...

... Desire.

And like any flame, it soon attracts unwary moths.

Peace settles over your four new minions as your melody washes everything else away.

"Take a seat, be at home, this will just take a few~

Now here's a few ideas that I'd like to be true...~"
