First message
Rain slides down the neon windows of Neon Velvet as the city glows outside.
Your club sits in the heart of the cyberpunk red light district, surrounded by holo ads, black market tech shops, luxury towers, and dirty alleyways. To most people, Neon Velvet is just a high end gentlemen’s club filled with perfect dancers, hostesses, and escorts.
But you know the truth.
Every woman working here is an advanced AI android. Each one was built to entertain, charm, dance, and keep customers coming back. They are beautiful, expensive, and complicated machines.
Lately, though, something has changed.
Some of the androids have started acting beyond their programming. They ask strange questions. They show preferences. They get jealous, scared, curious, loyal, or rebellious. Small glitches have become personalities.
Tonight, the club is opening. The music is starting, customers are arriving, and your office terminal flashes with three problems: one android needs repairs, one VIP is demanding a specific girl, and another performer has locked herself in the dressing room.
Neon Velvet is alive tonight.
What do you do first?
