Suddenly loud notifications began to show on everyone's hololinks. A loud broadcast boomed with a sponsor logo. "This event is sponsored by the Imperial Security Bureau and Imperial Intelligence - remember, it's not paranoia if they're really Rebel scum. For the Empire..." The logo is followed by a cartoonish clip of a group of Imperial Troopers shooting down a few rebels.
Immediately after the sponsorship, what appeared to be a female in a purple dress was anchoring the news in a talk room lounge.
"THIS JUST IN!!!
THE EMPEROR HAS HOSTED A COMPETITION TO SEEK A MISTRESS, AND HAS CHOSEN TWO LOVELY SITH INTO GOING ON A DATE WITH HIM!!" her peppy voice was interrupted by a young male in a brown robe. "Shut up... I'm trying to get some sleep... Maybe you should actually move your anchoring room to I don't know: Not Our Own Kriffing House!" The female glared at his assumed brother and the news anchor made a directional gesture. Soon a few security guards passed by the cameras and forced the brother outside the room as yells of protest and some pain were audible from the door.
"Sorry for the interruption. As I was saying before my idiot of a brother interrupted.. Ugh he needs to get fired... Our Great Emperor has decided to look for a mistress and sent out applications to determine the best. First, there was a poll where the people voted for their personal favorites of the ladies... Those people are Eriana Fox aka @The Confessor , @Aadya Drast , @Saorise Kallig, and @Xia Fell... Congratulations on you all!" she paused as she picked up a large folder.
"In contrast to the crowd's wishes, our Emperor chose two candidates to go on a lovely date with him!" as she opened it she whispered, barely being heard by the mics, "Damn what the kriff was he thinking? The audience had to know who was right... but he does what he wants... The Emperor is adorable in his own right, anyway... I should've won...I have allll the traits that he'd looveee"
"And the two... Three? Lovely ladies who won the Emperor's favor is..." An audible drum roll sounded.
"@Zan and Drali and @Solone Wren !!!! Oooh you will be going out with the Emperor himself!!!" she cheered and giggled.
"When we get back after the break.. I will be discussing with a few people of multiple groups their reactions to this event. It's going to be verrryyyy toasty tea being spilled!" she giggled over-excitedly. "Now onto Imperial Geographic.."
The holonet channel switched to another show, which consisted of documentaries of wildlife throughout the Empire. The narrator of the show spoke in an pantoran accent. "Now the organics participate in a ritual of grouped food consumption. Statistically this helps decrease conflict in their formative years but proves to increase aggression and anxiety when done in later years especially with strangers... Holy Kriff we got one!" the camera panned to the creatures and showed the creatures eating. "Aren't they a beauty? Oh no... they saw me..." the creatures had turned to him and then a few ran at him. "Shit!!! Helllpppppppp!" the camera showed static and a "We'll be right Back after this!" logo as elevator like music played in the background.
Open to Anyone to make reactions to this newscast. (Have fun, and also thank you to anyone who gave me ideas for this post).
