Douglas had to go somewhere, Bobby went who knows where and she doesn't care, fuck that prick, and Bailey with Maeve gave her a lift. They dropped her off a blocks short though of work, she had to walk the rest of the way. 201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8V8G5fkrQ

She just wants Bella to leave her alone. Her leg may be better, but it was a shit weekend. That asshole Bobby seriously thinks it's okay to attempt to have sex with her though, when she was tied up no less. 201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyu67RI5EP
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaOSiMmVq5
Her phone goes off, and she checks it. It's two seperate messages. Maeve and Bailey giving her their numbers and Bailey also giving her Bobby's and to call or message her if there is anything she needs. A little unsure what help they think she would want from them.201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMNcEW4lwP

And the conversation ends there. She looks over seeing Princess lined up beside Dreamer and Cuddles. She hasn't seen Cuddles before without his teddy bear suit on. He has slicked back hair and has shiny clothing on. He looks like his meant to be a boy band member. 201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5Si3jL7A4
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmr6gi4hUNC
Guess his multi-purpose. Put him in the suit for the kids, take it off and immediatly he appeals to the teens. He proably sings and dances the same as Princess. She hasn't seen him onstage though yet. She's only been here one month so far.201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdGm8Kt3nb

201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqIm1Wqjln
They hire stand in human entertainers to masquerade as the androids in a crunch, but there is no way one would make it here on such short notice. Perfomance is in half an hour.201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGJ2JA4Udk
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1Hfha4k3X
She could do it for them, they just don't she... it would save them the embarassment of no performance, but ticket sails is not something she can resolve. Unless... 201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRIyVL8ykb

201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2cD7FcDXg
And the call ends. Jess places her phone on the dressing room table, entering the wardrobe, picking out an outfit, taking a Princess wig off a stand in the corner, does her makeup and removes her glasses, inserting her performance contact lenses. They color change. 201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡth1dayOYBE
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9szLKRtskR
She logs into the app for them on her phone selecting the shiniest, bright silver that resembles Princess eyes. 201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnjFv4Khvo
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPqPgvzGOF
She looks like the spitting image of Princess, can hardly tell herself she's not her. Her vocals will be diffrent, but the other human entertainers on call who play Princess don't completly sound like her either so it's fine.201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaWMGFSH2a
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpD5ZjzHKPC
There is a knock on the dressing room door and she shovers her phone under some of the makeup supplies, answering the door. Time to play the part.201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQKSVT6ytv
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ455TnEEzqM

201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCl1wroht4Z
"Carly. Come on." And Carly takes her by the hand, dragging Jess all the way to a lift underneath the main stage. She's so convincing, Carly doesn't know she's human or realized her skin is real.201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJMkXetS5b
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuydWuI0m8
Princess skin feels very real, but there is a slight sytheticness you can feel in her touch.201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uaCHgB2Uv
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuaEx6BkIq
Jess stands there waiting for showtime, Carly walks up placing a microphone set on Jess head, positioning it. 201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqi4pUW1hgZ

201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1uXYK7HAg
It wasn't to long ago she was doing this, she did before she moved. During the performance, she sees Bella in the crowd looking up at her, phone out. 201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIIp4i3y8e
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBVn0SSaYo
Is she filming her? Bella lowers her phone and walks away. She does the ending pose minutes later, the smoke rises more and the lift starts to descend. She can vaguley hear Carly on stage above, thanking everyone for coming. It's a slow ride down and she sees Maggie, Ren, Joe and Bella waiting for her. 201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcZ4ytLJFs

201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPd2ilugFh
She's taken back a bit and trying not to laugh. "Very funny." Bella says annoyed, trying to keep it annoyed, but then bursts out laughing. Joe shakes his head, cracking a small grin. 201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLgGwMBBgt

201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ceReJpV6Z
"Okay, this funny. But enough, seriously. Who are you?" Maggie breaking down, laughing harder. Jess removes her contacts, putting them back in their little case and puts her glasses back on that we're hiding inside her costume. 201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclxLVkrs61
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JCRDh0uTh

"Jesse's an android? Why would an android have been in a mental hospital?" Ren asks, speech now slurring. "Uh, Bella. Can you take Ren back outside, please?" Maggie requests. Joe leaves with them.201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEswkPrHxl

She'll eventually stop tailing you when they realize there is nothing they can get you on. They'll think it was a one time incident and you proably bought it one time off the street. As long as it's not actively in your system if you're in hospital or somewhere one day, you'll be just fine.201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc177KWw0nz
