The group of 4 boys sat close together on a couch, waiting for their cue.
Edd, Matt, Tom, and Tord were all a group called 'eddsworld', and currently they were waiting in the back room behind the stage of a huge auditorium, where a concert was being held. There were lots of other artists there, but if you listened close, you could hear a faint "eddsworld! Eddsworld! EDDSWORLD!!" Coming from the crowd.
Okay, maybe it wasn't so faint, but they were about to go onstage, so can you blame them?

(This is the only way I could describe how they were sitting lole. I didn't draw this btw sksadhkg)
Edd looked up at his bandmates and smiled from his spot upside down. "I'm so lucky to have you guys! I can't believe we made it this far in our career" he said to the others, sitting up a bit.
The other three boys cheered, Tom saying a faint "same" before going back to wrestling tord off his back. Or at least trying.
Suddenly, Matt decided to be a smart boi for once. "do you guys remember how or why we even made this band?"
The Room went silent. Even Tord and Tom stopped wrestling to think about it.
Tom was the first to speak, saying somewhat uncertainly "uhhh I think there was this old guy who lived in a trash can and..?? Actually never mind"
They spent the next minute or two trying to piece together information together. What they got was:
Tord was a part of a trio, but they split up, and so he turned to Edd, who suggested they create a new band with Tom and Matt. They all agreed to do it, and started to move up through the ranks of popularity leading up to this show.
They figured that out just in time too. A girl with blue hair walked up to them with a clipboard not a minute later and said "Are you four 'Eddsworld'?"
Edd jumped up. "that's us!" He exclaimed, obviously nervous but still upbeat all at the same time. The girl looked at the four boys for a few seconds before nodding and saying "you're on in five" she held up five fingers for emphasis "go to the prep room, your clothes are there for you, as well as the makeup crew."
The boys were each in somewhat casual clothing. Although they were kind of skin tight, each band member wore a black hoodie and jeans (jeans are black too). The only thing different about the costumes was the drawstring, the inside of the hood, and the shoes. Those were different colors depending on the person (red: Tord, blue: Tom, purple: Matt, green: Edd)
(Lole I couldn't find the picture I got this idea from, so uh ye)
Then it was onto makeup. It really wasn't much, just a bit of eyeliner to make the eyes stand out, same for the lips (lipliner??), and foundation. They also put a bit of silver glitter dust on the cheekbones, which looked really cool in the test stage light they had in the back.
(Look I don't do makeup so bear with me I'm trying)
Matt seemed to think he didn't need cosmetics, but the other three forced him into a chair and let the professionals do the rest.
And then, it was time
Tom slung his checkered guitar over his shoulder, and Tord whirled his drumsticks in his hand a bit before sticking them in his back pocket.
Edd stopped right before they got to the stairs to the stage and held his hand flat out in front of him. "Lets have fun, alright? This is a night for us too, enjoy it. ;)"
The three boys grinned and put their hands on top of his. "123Eddsworld!" They said in unison, throwing their hands up after 3.
And with that, they ran onstage still grinning.
The roar from the crowds was incredible. Not only was the sound muffled by the back wall during their time backstage, Eddsworld's appearance made the crowd cheer twice as loud. The boys spent about a minute waving, blowing kisses, pointing at people in the crowd that were making the biggest ruckus and laughing before the audience died down enough so you could hear properly.
Edd walked to center stage and grabbed the mic off the stand in front of him "Ladies and gentleman, thanks for coming out tonight!" The crowd screamed once more. "Lets make this night one to remember, alright?" With that, he raised his fist up in the air, with the other three band members joining in a few seconds later. And then, everyone in the crowd raised a fist up right back at them showing their support and excitement and cheering as loud as they could.
Edd looked back and the four boys all made eye contact. Tord raised his drum sticks up with his hands and began to hit them together, marking the beat. "1, 2, 1234!"
