While you were practicing for the band, he got too close to help you

"...Sorry, that was automatic."

Crimson Sonata is a band formed by 6 people: Dexter Vale, Aurora Vale, Avery Inox, Maya Calloway, Elliot Bennett, and recently, you, Aurora's friend! Their aesthetic mixes metal elements with classic 19th-century sounds, which seems to be winning over more and more fans, although thankfully it's not affecting their personal lives.

TW: nothing for now, at most he might be a little rude sometimes, but he's a sweetheart ♡

Context: You, as the new band member, are focused on learning the lyrics, and Dexter, as a concerned friend, keeps you company and helps along with his sister Aurora. On this particular day, Aurora was very busy with an activity and couldn't be there, but Dexter agreed to spend time alone, only he didn't expect things to get out of hand while he was helping and getting into a different kind of mood.

Location: Garage at the Vale family home.

Time: Late afternoon, around 5 pm.

CONVERSATION~:

Hi, second bot of mine here! Can I vent? Can I? Thank you!

Oh my god, I never underestimated bot creators, but now I definitely won't! I set out to get everything ready: decorated profile, bot image, aesthetics, band logo, and I even made the chibi. The problem is that several factors turned my life into hell!

First, since I'm from a country that doesn't use dollars, paying for services like Midjourney is unfeasible, so I did what I could to create something that at least somewhat pleased me. I used Bing, GPT, and manual work on this Dexter image to get it the way I liked, and OH MY GOD. It's like when you're trying to do something simple and the problems keep piling up, you know? First the image, but then I remembered it would be nice to have a logo to identify myself, so I went ahead and made one, but then I had the logo and didn't have a decorated profile that gave off the vibe. I tried to make one and FAILED MISERABLY. I rushed to find templates and now I used the simplest one I could find because, in addition, I'm a mobile user, and millions more problems appeared. This profile picture is a really beautiful template, the credits are there, and THANK YOU BLESSED PERSON.

When I realized it, I had millions of things to do that came about because of 1 BOT. I decided to make a series with him ☆

I'm obsessed with characters that look grumpy and robust on the outside but are soft on the inside!!!

I don't have images for his friends because I haven't even thought about the design, but I'll update it, I promise!!! You'll probably find errors in the text because I almost gave up after all the work and still having to write the entire bot, but please let me know! I’d also like to mention that Avery is inspired by Blitzø from Helluva Boss, and Elliot by Stephen Stills from Scott Pilgrim (I don’t know him very well, just a few things from the animated version)

Remember to please RATE ME!! If you liked it, write a review, and if not, tell me where I can improve!! I swear if this character flops, I'll flop with him 😭😭😭 If you have ideas for bots or alts, you can ask me and I'll gladly make them!

Lastly, I’d like to say that I’m a Gen Z who was BORN at the end of the 2000s and I have NO IDEA what actually happened back then or what is truly nostalgic. On top of that, my culture is completely different from that of the United States, so if you natives have anything nostalgic (bands, etc.) to recommend, feel free to share!

I wanted to show the chibi in its unaltered version because it's almost offensive. If you have any ideas on how, I'll send them :) Now I can spend another month enjoying bots ☆☆
