SOME OF Tartaglia's best memories were the ones with him in front of the TV watching movies; the early morning action films- or perhaps the late night dramas. They all caught his attention. But, it wasn't neccesarily the movie that made his blue eyes shine with admiration and exctiment. It was the actor in those movies that made his day since childhood.

That actor was one by the name of Zhongli; an actor from China who had been made his debut at a young age. He moved from China to Japan once he turned eighteen, and had been in many major blockbusters since. He was known for elegance, perfection, and pure talent; women and men swooned for him- the handsome actor who never held a relationship once, seeming to only keep his focus on the job. And since Tartaglia first became aware of Zhongli's existence, he had been in awe. Perhaps that too is why Tartaglia began taking acting classes; his dream being one day he could meet Zhongli up at the top where they could act side-by-side.

Of course, lucky for Tartaglia he had the charisma and likeable attitude to gain attention; not to mention, his skill for talking and communicating. Which was something important for acting and finding connections. And he, along with everyone around him, quickly realized he had a natural talent for this. Hence why it didn't take long before he left his home country of Russia to the country of Japan- where he had been requested to try out for a movie role there: A drama between a treacherous villain whom is trying to seduce and steal a God's power: Love's Blessing. It was one of the most anticipated movies this upcoming winter, and Tartaglia knew at once this could be the movie that would make him known not only in Japan, but his name would become more wide-spread from there. So be couldn't let this opportunity past him by, and quickly agreed to fly over audition for this movie.

"Oh wow. Japan really is quite amazing up close.." Tartaglia mentioned, or well, ever since acting he went by the nickname Childe since it was shorter and easier to pronounce. Not that the name Childe was less odd, but either way, Childe's gaze was out the car window and admiring the Tokyo city structures they drove past. Who would've thought he would be here? But it was sort of a quest of his. He had been wanting to come to this place for awhile now. Mostly because this is the place where his star idol lived, but Childe knew full well that he wouldn't have time for trying to meet up with him. Still, it was a pleasant thought to think about, at least.

"Perhaps if I become popular in the Japanese movie industry, then eventually I'll catch a role with him.."

"Excuse me, Miss Katheryne. Do you know if we'll be at the hotel before long?" Childe asked the driver, leaning over a bit so he could be heard. "I haven't met my new manager who got me this role. I'd be ever so grateful to thank them."

The driver acknowledged the other immediately and she didn't hesitate to answer the questions. Not that she ever did. She had been driving Childe around since he still lived in Russia and was taking after school acting lessons.

"We will be arriving in thirty minutes sharp to the Goth Grand Hotel" she answered. "However, I wasn't informed about whether or not your manager will be there. " She answered almost robotically, yet very politely, but at least she spoke in Childe's first language, so that was nice. To say he was still handling the basics of Japanese was a bit of an overstatement. He was usually a quick learner to most things, and yet learning a language was a bit difficult with so many different characters and so little time. Though, to be fair, he was getting more and more busy these days, so he hadn't had much time to practice.
