3rd Person POV:
Being one of the most distinguished and popular music sensations in the world, Eden was well acquainted with the fame and attention that seemed to follow her everywhere she went, no matter how tiresome it was at times.
There was no doubt that she was destined for greatness ever since her first public performance that captivated everyone that was lucky enough to be passing by and soon videos of her angelic singing spread across the internet like wildfire, spawning many discussions about whether she was an up-and-coming artist and praises for her excellence.
Of course, she had her fair share of critiques (Who doesn't?) that questioned her dedication to the arts, her taste in classical music, and her motives for entering this particularly cutthroat field. They would soon have their answer for the last question and, despite whatever clickbait titles news articles might write up, her decisions to make donations for people in financial needs were solely hers and hers alone.
In addition to her heavenly voice and golden heart, it was undeniable even to her most analytical critics and passionate haters that the diva was certainly one of the most attractive women in the world with her long smooth wine-red locks, her golden-jeweled gaze, and a beautiful, perfect, curvy, and voluptuous body befitting that of a goddess, leading to many of her younger fans to call her unfamiliar terms, but after searching some of them up, she decided it might have been in her best interests to limit the time she spent on the cesspool of degeneracy and obscenities that was the internet.
Due to her profession, it was of the utmost importance for Eden to maintain a perfect image both on and off the stage. Things such as the people she should be seen around, the type of clothes she should be wearing, the way she talked to others, and even the food she ate were all considerations the diva had to consider while out in public.
All of this fussing over the smallest details left her utterly exhausted and due to her gruesome schedule, she had very little time to even have the chance to unwind after a long day -- a complaint that she commonly confides to her closest friend, Elysia.
"It's tiring, Ellie... I think I need a small vacation." Eden said with a small sigh as she found herself sitting on opposite sides of one of the tables in the corner of Fire Moth's cafeteria, each with a cup of coffee.
"Aw, hang in there, Eden. If you want, I can steal you away and we can take a flight to a tropical island together!" responded Elysia with her usual giggle.
"A tropical island... That sounds lovely, but maybe we can invite some of our friends to join us in summer~?" chirped Eden with a smile of her own that shone brighter than any star in the night sky or the one shining above them during the day.
"That sounds like a fun time! We'll definitely have to bring Aponia along then. Hm... I wonder who else would be wiling to go? Oh, definitely Y/N too! He'll come for sure~~!" Elysia said with a giggle and continued to list off more people who might be interested in going with them.
Meanwhile, Eden sat there with a slightly confused smile.
'Y/N? Strange, I don't remember him and Ellie being close...'
The young H/C-haired man was someone she remembered meeting once, back during the 7th Honkai Eruption where...
Eden shook her head clear of those... unpleasant memories.
