Capítulo 23: Number One Fan
Kelei stared at the computer screen, practically swooning as she studied the new art. Ever since it's release, she had proudly wielded the title of 'Number One Fan'. Sure, she hadn't officially 'discovered' the web comic, but she was the strongest backer on the PatronPower, she followed the newsletter, and shared links on every internet board she could locate. Who would deny she was the most invested in Twisted Tales' success?
At first she just loved the comic, with its dazzling reinterpretations of her favorite fairy tale characters. (And Hook, wow, what a hunk!) But the last year made her devotion more serious. The rapid updates, increased demand, and complex storyline drew her in, then the breathtaking characters caged her.
It was more than just a passing fling!
As the fan base grew, Kelei knew she needed to maintain her strong position. She commissioned fan art with some of the characters, which were hanging above her computer. She even wrote fan fiction retelling her favorite scenes. Some day, she wanted to share them with the creator, Evan Nicholas.
Hopefully, that day would come soon.
Kelei looked at her calendar, counting down the days to FanQuest. She had her flight booked, hotel and convention passes purchased. She was disappointed the artist didn't have a merchandise table, but was hopefully she could get an autograph after his panel.
If Evan Nicholas knew what she went through to see him, surely he could give her a moment of his time? Who knows? Maybe he would want her to stick around? A girl could dream, right?
After rereading the comic for probably the hundredth time, Kelei pushed back from her computer and turned to look around her room. She had a studio apartment in one of the wealthier sections of the city, and it was immaculately kept. Large bed, fabulous closet, plenty of bookshelves for her favorite mangas and figurines. It was a little nerdy but, mature, suiting her age.
When she was younger, Kelei obsessed with magic girls. In her high school years, she buried her nose in steamy romance. Now she had refined taste for one comic in particular. It was a fairy tale, but one befitting her young adult status.
After graduating high school, Kelei suckered her parents into the current carefree life. No job, no college, just a computer, her dreams, and several credit cards to burn on her favorite web comic. She had several older brothers to carry on the family name and business, which left her, the darling daughter, to enjoy the little things in life. Oh, they occasionally tried to talk her into college, or looking toward a career, but they never fought her much. Her mother in particular encouraged her to travel and enjoy the world while she could. She went to Japan, Ireland, New York, Hawaii, and now she was finally going to FanQuest to meet her favorite artist ever!
Kelei looked down at her manicured nails, humming thoughtfully to herself. When she was younger, people assumed being pretty and wealthy obviously made her dumb. After all, that seemed fair. Why would the world give one person so many positive traits? Yet she always surprises them with her forceful intelligence. She was able to organize school committees, plan events, and now she wanted to use her skills toward something she cherished. Maybe she could get a business degree or a secretaries position, but she wanted more. She was patient, like a tigress pursuing things that mattered. It was time to make a move that could change her future.
Evan Nicholas, she was ready for you!
