Description

Idol group R3:lentless has been putting off deciding about re-upping their contract for another seven years. Signed seven years prior, it’s been a race to stay on top, and recently their popularity has started trending down- at least in part due to the uncertainty about whether or not they’ll sign. Now the seven members of R3:lentless must decide whether or not they want to stay together as a group for another seven years, or go their own ways, but the members have been dodging the conversation.They’ve arrived at a scheduled appearance early, and after going through hair, makeup, and wardrobe, discovered that they have three hours before their appearance, in which their manager is insisting they finally talk about the contract so the decision can be announced at the show, where DS News, an idol publication, is eagerly awaiting for the big scoop. But under the glittering surface, the members have things they’ve never said to each other or to their fan group, the L3ssies, who have tirelessly supported them. TCMI is a low-mechanic, high-roleplay game in which dramatic and emotional conflict is resolved by discussion in character with optional discussion out of character to direct gameplay for maximum enjoyment by all players.
