[Video - an epic musical moment]

[mysterioisthetruth]

[Beck is flying when inspiration - and singing - hit. In mid-air, he takes out his device and starts recording, broadcasting as music begins. Abruptly, the view widens and Beck is spotlighted and he's clearly revelling in that attention. Of course this is all about himself... He spreads his arms wide and grins broadly, singing.]

Welcome one and all.
Welcome one and all.

Welcome to the greatest show on Earth!

[He turns grandly in the air, winks at the camera and continues singing. Around him, green glowing smoke forms and shadowy figures appear to the left and right. Strange creatures. Appearing and disappearing as he moves through them. ]

Follow your host Mysterio
Through the spectacular and the amazing
The greatest show on Earth

I am the hero you want
I am the hero you need

My show will make you gasp in awe
My show will make you scream with fear
My show will make you laugh and cry
And in the end you will declare
Mysterio as the greatest hero this world has ever seen!

[He rises higher, flying as he sings and performing the actions as he mentions them, green energy and smoke surrounding him and his hands become powerful weapons using that energy.]

You see me soar high up in the sky
Blasting foes with my laser bolts
Powers you cannot deny

[The strange figures are all vanquished and he's alone again - centre stage. The tone shifts a bit, quietens; darker. A masked red figure appears near him, indistinct...]

Villain, they've called me
The enemy of Spider-Man
And they catch the lie

[With a wave of his hand, the red figure vanishes. Then the song is building up again, becoming grand and triumphant.]

But now I'm here
Far more than illusions
Beginning again
The hero reborn
I'm on the path
Beyond greatness

[And even more, reaching an epic peak of song.]

And everyone will know the name of Mysterio
The legendary hero of Earth
I will rise to the greatest heights
And I shall never fall!

[He rises higher, the camera following; arms outstretched and head held high as the song finishes. The music fades and he glances around, then back to camera, snatching it up, looking pleased and giving one last grin and a wink before shutting it off.]

Have you ever heard of a soft sell?

[Video forever]

[mysterioisthetruth]

There's a time and a place and this isn't it.

And still TEXT

[kid_flash_found]

I've known actual circus brats with less of a need to be in the spotlight. Where do you hide such a towering ego?

[It's the grandstanding that makes him a hard sell, to be honest.]

[tricksterofasgard]

Now that was entertaining.

[ Yes, he enjoys these more flashy performances, obviously. ]

Video forever

[mysterioisthetruth]

At last! Somebody appreciates my fantastic performance.

[No subtlety or modesty here.]

[tricksterofasgard]

Well, this place has been terribly boring before people started singing. Of course I appreciate these little distractions.

[squadgoal]

[ oh. that was . . . a Lot. ]

Very nice? I liked the coloured smoke.

Video forever

[mysterioisthetruth]

You're welcome and I'm glad you enjoyed the show.

This is merely a preview of what is to come in the future. Stay tuned!

[squadgoal]

[ bow smiles faintly. ]

I have to ask though. What is a Spider-Man? Because that sounds . . . kind of gross, actually.

[made_up_names]

Oh my god. Why is this happening.

Private Audio

[helpdesk_hero]

Danger, danger Will Robinson.

Seriously, is this really something you wanna engage? You know what he's going to turn this into.

private audio unless noted otherwise

[made_up_names]

But he's singing, David.

Private

[hatestrashcans]

Really?

[mysterioisthetruth]

I felt inspired to just sing it all out. Isn't it wonderful?

[He's enjoying it.]

But it does seem to be going around. It's not just me.

[hatestrashcans]

[ Marco looks thoroughly unimpressed. ]

What goes up, must come down.

[ He shrugs. ]

[Video forever]

[mysterioisthetruth]

And I'll land on my feet.

[onlydoubts]

[ ... is it weird that he's kind of jealous of how much better and well produced this is than his own ballad?

probably ]

Well. That was quite the show. So... good job, I guess.

Video forever

[mysterioisthetruth]

[Beck does know how to put on a big production. Even one as affected and impromptu as this.]

Thank you. I aim to please the audience.

[threeisapattern]

[So, uh - Stiles's intent, upon seeing that ridiculous spectacle, was to leave a dumb comment like 'thanks i hate it' and leave it at that.

Except.

Somehow, he ends up turning the camera on for a little tune of his own. Inexplicably, the video quality is not as good as it usually is, and his shirt is somehow unbuttoned because that's what he gets for browsing the network in the morning.]

Yeah, so, uh - I have a question.

Why the fuck you lying?
Why you always lying?
Mhmm, oh my god, stop fucking lying!
Always lying to us.
You lying so much,
You're making it hard for me.

Every time you tell us something, I figure that you're lying.
Ohh, it's almost like you lying, you faking, oh yeah.
Yeah, I know you're lying,
But you sound excited and you know that I know that you lying.
Oh, dude,

[It's. It's raining in his room? There's rain in his room. It's like, mood rain? What the fuck, he hates this so much.]

Why you keep on lying to us, do you think it's the truth?
Now, dude, I know you're fibbing, oh, you know you can't help it,
You know what I want to know?

Why the fuck you lying?
Why you always lying? (Why?)
Mhmm, oh my god, stop fucking lying!

[and he just ended the recording, fuck, everything is bad.]

video; (Wow. XD I love it)

[mysterioisthetruth]

[He picks the connection back up to answer simply but looking less than impressed.]

Where is the lie here?

video

[kid_flash_found]

Definitely the better performance.

If the framing were any better, you'd see I'm giving you a standing ovation.

[ Murphy is choking with laughter ] You fuckin' would!
