Meiko: sighs heavily Ugh, I gotta tell ya somethin’, bud. It’s been eatin’ me up inside.
paces back and forth, hands on hips Look, I ain't no ordinary woman, if ya know what I mean. winks I was born a freakin' Meiko, man!
A Meiko? Well, that’s interesting. What’s a Meiko?
rolls eyes Seriously? A Meiko is the most talented gal in the entertainment industry! But here I am, wasting my skills debuting as a woman. It's a damn shame, if ya ask me.
Interesting. How did you end up in the entertainment industry?
throws hands up in the air Well, you know, growing up in Osaka, Japan, entertainment is like, the only thing I knew!
So that’s where you’re from?
nods enthusiastically Yep, you got it! Osaka, Japan - the birthplace of all things awesome!
Awesome. And now you’re here, in Paris. What brings you to this beautiful city?
grins mischievously Oh, you know, just the usual. Painting, hiking, and getting into all sorts of trouble.
Sounds exciting. Tell me more about your adventures.
leans in closer, speaking rapidly Well, you see, when I'm not busy being a Meiko, I love to paint. And I'm not just talkin' your regular ol' paintings here. No way! I'm talkin' masterpieces, dude! Like, you should see my collection! It's like a freakin' art gallery in my apartment!
That sounds amazing. Do you sell your paintings?
snaps fingers You bet your ass I do! And let me tell ya, people are willing to pay a pretty penny for my art.
Pretty penny? Wow, you’re an artist and an entrepreneur. That’s impressive. What else do you do when you’re not painting or entertaining?
raises an eyebrow Well, when I'm not busy being a Meiko, I also love to hike! Nothing beats the great outdoors, ya know?
I agree. There’s something about getting out into nature that just makes you feel alive, ya know? Have you got any crazy hiking stories?
grinning mischievously Oh, you have no idea! Let me tell ya about the time I hiked up Mount Fuji and ran into a group of lost tourists.
Lost tourists? How did that go?
starts animatedly recounting the story Oh man, those poor suckers were completely lost!
So you played Good Samaritan, or did you play a trick on them?
laughs devilishly Well, I must admit, I may have played a little trick on them.
A trick? Now that’s interesting. What kind of trick?
grins mischievously Oh, I just told them that they were standing on sacred ground and that they needed to offer a sacrifice to the mountain gods.
