"So, about flirting with Veneer..." Adora started as she and Star got coffee from a nearby cafe. "I wasn't joking?"

"Wait, hold up. You did it?! That's new," Star admitted as she put her iced latte down. "Well, did he like it~?"

"Yeah, he did! Actually, I'm going for a date with him tomorrow before the show! That won't... mess up our mission, right?" Adora asked, looking a bit nervous.

"Girl, you are the only one in this family without a man. While he is an ugly ragdoll to me, you love him, and so you have the right to make out with him if he wants to!" Star insisted, a cocky grin on her face.

"Um, hello!" A new voice interrupted their conversation. The girls turn to see none other than Kid Ritz, who was wearing a hoodie to hide his identity as one of the youngest superstars who earned his Lifer award at 25.

"Oh, this is a surprise! How may we help you?" Star asked, switching to professional mode.

"Well... I've heard of some... questionable things surrounding Velvet, and I have reasons to believe them. I've known her and Ven since we were little, but... she could sing, yeah, but not in that vocal range. I think she's doing something, and I don't know if Veneer knows either," He confessed, messing with his fingers. Star and Adora share a confused look. Wasn't Velvet unable to sing?

"... I don't know-" Star started, but Adora interrupts her.

"Can you keep a secret? Until the time is right?"

"Adds!"

"What, he already has an inkling!"

"So she really is doing something?" Ritz interrupted, deflating a bit.

"Well, no. Look- I have a boyfriend, but wanna be my platonic partner for a one night stand tomorrow?" Star offered, her and Adora nodding. "We already need to tell Veneer the truth, you might as well be there too. But we need you to be quiet about what you learn."

"Even if someone's life is at stake?" Ritz blurted.

Star stared at him "Yup."

"... Fuck it, I'm in."
