"Wait, Paimon will be animated?"

Y/N was in her dressing room, Xinyan managing to sneak in. Xinyan nodded, then popping a chip in her mouth.

"Surprising, eh? Well, it will be hard to find a flying midget, or at least, someone able to float in the air that long. She has to be animated." Xinyan sipped from her soda, then faced Y/N.

"You have to get ready faster. Your scene will be up." She left the room with a wave, closing the door behind her.

Y/N sighed, as someone entered her room, who was supposed to help her with her makeup. Oh well.

"Don't be afraid. I'm here."

The minute Y/N finished getting ready, the recording had started. Venti was talking to Dvalin - at least, a model of Dvalin. And a half assed one.

Aether was peeking around the large rock, then after a few seconds, reacted suddenly as if surprised. (Y/N assumed it was when the Anemo power Aether got reacted or somethint to Dvalin.)  A lot of action and movement, which made Venti and Aether look weird because there wasn't anything moving to make them have such vivid reactions. But hey, that's acting.

Y/N sat down on a chair, waiting for her part to start. She was a member of the Knights of Favonius, so it wouldn't be long until her scene.

Some time later, Y/N was called onto the set. Venti sat back, eyeing Y/N and Aether. It was the scene wherein Jean had called Aether into the headquarters, and Y/N's character will be with Lisa and Jean inside Jean's office.

Y/N leaned against a bookshelf, where her character was at the scene. She rerehearsed her lines in her head, then gave a thumbs up. The recording started.

"Jean, what's the hurry? I thought we agreed to meet them here."

Y/N looked up, as Jean began to say, "There have been sightings of Stormterror outside the city. Once we meet, we must-"

"Relax. I'll lend a hand when the time comes."

"So will I!" Y/N said, walking from the bookshelf she leaned on. She began to feel nervous at the cameras and eyes pointed to her, but she needed to finish this.

She jumped from the small balcony, then landed perfectly. "You needn't worry when we're all here. We are the Knights, aren't we? We're undefeatable!" Y/N sighed. "Well, almost."

"Jean, I've brought them." Kaeya walked in, Amber and Aether following him. Jean, Lisa, and Y/N all turned, smiling softly at the trio.

"Aaaand, cut! That's wonderful!" The director clapped, everyone else clapping with him.

"Everyone take your lunch breaks. One hour on the clock, I'll see you all later!" Everyone waved, then walked away.

"Excellent acting, Y/N! Splendid! Flawless! And you looked stunning!" Kaeya launched himself at Y/N, but then she moved out of the way. Kaeya accidentally fell on Childe, and he fell on Childe's ass.

"Wh- damn shawty, you're flat." Kaeya said, dissapointed, then turned to Y/N. "Why'd you move out of the way? I'm hurt." He feigned a pouting and hurt expression, which caused Amber to choke on her sandwhich.

"Amber, we're almost at the cafe. You're already eating?" Barbara asked, Noelle running after them.

"I'm already hungry, and besides! At least I won't have to spend money today!" She chirped, then took another bite. Noelle shrugged, muttering about how Amber has a good point, then lifted her metal-ish maid dress and ran to the cafeteria, wallet in hand.
