1) CLUB Paradox?!

  disclaimer (only if you have not seen paradox live prior) - In the Paradox Live universe, Phantometal is a substance found within the accessories used by hip-hop and rap artists in the near future, and may also refer to the accessories themselves. It is a type of chemically reactive metal that when combined with the user's DNA, allows them to generate brilliant illusions in the environment that are linked to their emotions. They are integral to the popular phantom live movement, where artists can perform songs and create illusions on stage. Unfortunately, as a side effect, users will afterwards suffer from illusions of their past trauma. This is referred to as a trap response. It is implied that trap responses get more intense if the user has been drinking too much alcohol.

Phantometals were developed by the organization Alter Trigger, which supposedly disbanded after the side effects of phantometals were discovered. The phantom live movement began at CLUB Paradox, where the Paradox Live competition takes place.

It was early into the ams, you were super tired from another performance at the club, Razzle Dazzle. BAE had always done shows there to help get more recognition and practice

  You, Allen, Hajun, and Anne were all sitting in a private room of the club. It was square shaped and lined with a booth framing the room as a large square shaped table sat in the middle of the room

  Allen flops face first onto the booth's cushion and groans while Anne sips a glass of champagne

  "Why does champagne right after a performance taste so good?" they smile and relax into the booth

  "I'm exhausted!!" Allen whines into the cushion, making you laugh a bit in amusement

  Anne leans forward a bit in their chair and smirks at him, "Allen, you've been overworking yourself since the beginning. Your illusions were so strong and vivid. You should take us into consideration too!" they gesture to both you and Hajun

  "Sorry" he picks his head off of the booth, "I got too immersed in it and didn't really notice"

  He turns himself around and lays on his back with his arms crossed and resting behind his head instead

  "..But, tonight was really great!" he smiles

  Anne picks holds their glass and looks at him, "I really can't stand you"

  Hajun, who was siting next to you, doesn't even bother to look up from the letters and papers in his hands

  He briefly looks at fan mail and other papers as you rest your head against his shoulder, to which he doesn't seem to mind at all

  "When it comes to music, you don't seem to care about anything else" Hajun nonchalantly says before stopping at a certain eye-catching letter

  "He's just really passionate about hip hop" you speak up as you softly giggle

Allen sits up and smirks at Hajun, "Oh, you scheming prince..your fan letters are completely black" he points to the black envelope in Hajun's hand

He replies with a shake of the head

"Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to have been sent to me" he sets it down on the table in the center, the words 'invitation' written in gold

Anne leans forward and looks at the envelope, "Invitation? From which venue?" they look a bit skeptical

You pick your head off of Hajun's shoulder and lean forward a bit to see the letter as Allen picks it up

He clears his throat before reading, "Dear members of BAE, 'CLUB paradox would like to invite you to participate in Paradox Live. Details to follow."
