aria meets a fan....
Ali (as Aria)[extremely awkward]: So yeah! If you just follow me on, um... [pained laugh]
Austin (as a fan)[confused]: I can't-- We can't-- But once we go inside, we can't access the mesh. How am i gonna know... Also I follow you already, you haven't posted anything about a secret show! Unless, do you have like a secret account i can follow?
Ali (as Aria): Right! Yeah, it's no longer @AriaJoieOfficial [bursts into laughter]
Austin (as the fan) [intrigued]: Ooooooh?!
[Keith and Ali laughing in the background]
Art: This is like one of those Instagram scams, except that the actual person is telling you to your face!
Austin (as the fan): What? It's no--
Keith [interrupting]: You've actually gotta sign up to my Whatsapp.
Austin (as the fan): It's NOT @AriaJoieOfficial? But Aria Joie Official still posts?
Ali (as Aria): Well, yes! Right! Right! It's, like, um, exclusive!
Austin (as the fan) [intrigued again]: Ooh! What's the-- What's the account name?
[Ali takes a deep breath]
Ali (as Aria): Um. Um. It's Aria Joie, but the As are fours.
Austin (as the fan) [palpably disappointed]: Oh. [Forcing themself to sound excited] Okay! I'll look it up!
Keith: This has gotta be, at this point, this person's like, "Someone has gotten plastic surgery to look like Aria Joie.
Austin: This is exactly it.
[Ali laughs]
Keith: Yeah.
Austin: The camera looks down and sees how many-- So the camera looks at their phone, or their interface, right, 'cause they're not looking at their phone. They have, like, you know, digital eyes, or whatever. Robot eyes. And they're looking at the, uh, screen. And we saw the Aria Joie account that has, like, three trillion subscribers, or whatever. But then it shows the Fouria Four-Foie account.
[All laughing]
Austin: How many subscribers do you have? [long pause as Ali thinks] 'Cause it ain't trillions!
Keith: It's--
Ali: It's not a trillion! But it's-- Is it-- [starts to say a number but quickly changes her mind]
Keith: Can I tell you my first thought was 334.
[cross-talking]
Austin: Yeah! I think it's NOT many!
Ali: 334! Okay! I was-- I was like-- What's the--
Keith: I think it can be whatever you want it to be, but that was my what's the funniest low number of followers? 334.
Ali: I didn't know if, like, 26 or, like, 300 was it. Because it's like are there only-- Is this the only people she's spoken to, like, on COUNTER/Weight so far? Or is it, presumably, somebody who googled Aria and accidentally, like, pressed on her.
Austin: No, you did not. No. You did not get the SEO at all. There's no fucking way.
Ali: There's stans, there's a reddit, you know!
[crosstalk]
Keith: For Fouria Joie?
Austin: There are Aria Joie RP accounts that have more followers than you!
Ali: Right.
Keith: Right.
Ali: Well, yes. Yeah. Uh-huh.
[Austin laughs]
Austin: I think it's low. I think 300's probably right.
Ali: 300 is... yeah.
Austin: And I think that they just go--
Austin (as fan)[weirded out] : Very exclusive!
Ali (as Aria): Well, yeah! I--It's, um. I'm just reaching out to the people on COUNTER/Weight right now.
Austin (as fan)[dismissive]: Okay.
Ali (as Aria): Are you just visiting? Or are you from the...
Austin (as fan): Yeah? Im-- Y-yeah. Mhm. I'm visiting. Yeah.
Keith: Oh my god. Now it's this person that's trying to get away.
Austin: Yeah. Uh-huh! Exactly.
[All laughing]
Art: Let's see where this person goes to get away, we'll follow them in.
Keith: Oh my god.
Austin (as fan): I have some-- Oh, you know, it was so good to meet you. I'm gonna tell all my friends. But I'm--
Ali (as Aria) [interrupting]: Is this your first time to the Sill?
Austin (as fan): Yeah, I haven't been here-- In fact, I have to go take a call. For Work. Uh. If that's okay. Sorry.
Ali (as Aria): Oh, I understand! Yeah!
Austin (as fan): Big fan! I love... all the songs.
Ali (as Aria): Do you wanna take a picture?
Austin (as fan): No.
[Ali laughs]
Austin (as fan): I don't wanna, uh.
[Art and Ali laughing]
Austin (as fan): I couldn't post it anywhere. 'Cause I don't wanna give away the exclusive part!
Ali (as Aria): Oh, no, you could!
Art: You should fuckin' play a show when this is over just to mess with this person.
Ali (as Aria): It's like, submersive, you know?
Austin (as fan): It's submersive?
Ali (as Aria): It's like unscheduled.
Austin (as fan): Like it goes under water?
Keith: Underwater!
[All laugh]
Keith: Canonical.
Austin: Ca-nautical!
[beat of quiet and then everyone laughs]
Art: Heeeyyyy!
Keith [laughing]: Ca-nautical!
Austin (as fan): Yeah, we could. We could take a picture. You wanna? Come over-- We could take a picture.
Austin: And they're wait for YOU to come over to them.
[All laugh]
Austin: And they're doing--
Jack [interrupting]: This is the most busted Aria Joie interaction, and we did a full series of...
Austin: They're doing-- They're making-- They're standing in such a way that you're hover-handing!
[Ali and Jack laugh]
Keith: Um. Mako is very loudly sipping on the end of... You know when you're done with a soda and you can [imitates the sound of sipping through a straw from an empty cup]. Like, this is the noise I've been making for like twelve seconds.
Austin: We're back, baybey!!!
