Play Vixen’s VIP Lounge - Episode 1: Pilot
#1 of Play Vixen VIP Lounge
First pilot episode which helps viewers get to know more about the characters, Play Vixen and the interactions between them.
A crew of a few members were putting last minute touches on a talk show set. The setting looked simple with a white back drop, a comfy love seat and a simple desk with a chair. It wasn't fancy but for Play Vixen's first television show ever, they didn't have much experience. Walking over to the desk was a minty green furred lapine with blue eyes, short blond hair that was waxed to form a simple faux hawk and white fur patches along his form. His attire consisted of a white dress shirt with a green tie, black dress pants and a black suit jacket. He looked like one of those late night talk shows on TV.
As he sat down and began going through his notes, a white furred muscle built wolf approached him and spoke out to the lapine. "We're almost ready here. How about you?"
"I'm ready and yet I'm not Ryu."
Ryu had a puzzled look on his face when he got his answer. "What do you mean boss? You never did a t.v. show before?"
"I have and I'm not worried about me. These gigs are easy compared to concerts and large events. My worry is with Dawn." The rabbit sighed after he shared his concern to Ryu.
"Boss, Dawn has been on T.V. longer than your career. I'm sure she isn't nervous about this at all."
The rabbit looked from his notes to properly address his concern to the wolf. "Once again, that is not my main concern. It's how Dawn acts around me. She..." The rabbit was about to continue when a speaker voice interrupted them.
"We're on in one minute everyone. Places please."
Ryu smiled and patted the rabbit's back. "You'll be fine. I'm sure Dawn will act like a true professional on T.V."
As Ryu turned and left to get into position, the rabbit shook his head. "You don't know Dawn as well as I do Ryu. Hopefully, she will be professional but I seriously doubt that."
Soon, lights came on, cameras were focused on the rabbit and the speaker voice counted down from five to one. As soon as one was called, the recording lights on the cameras were on and the bunny took a breath in and looked to the main camera.
"Hello everyone, welcome to our first episode of Play Vixen's VIP Lounge. My name is Reno Hidaka and I'll be your host. On this show, we will be sitting down with members of our Play Vixen team and ask them a variety of questions. We will even have questions submitted by you that our guests will answer. Of course since this is our first show, I will be the only one asking the questions. We do plan on bringing our staff back again to have some of your questions answered as well so please stay tuned every week."
Reno turned his attention to another camera to continue his opening segment. "Let's not waste anymore time in introducing our first guest to the show. She is one of the three owners of Play Vixen. She works as our talent scout, shoot producer and if in the right mood, a fellow model/actress on those shoots. Please give a hand to the beautiful Dawn Furrie.
A recording of applause music echoes the room. From the shadows on the left side of the stage, a female German Shepherd enters on stage. As she approached Reno, people could see at home just how beautiful she is. From her neat mixture of brown, blonde and white hair that was past shoulder length to her emerald green eyes. Her slightly toned frame but motherly curves really drew eyes to her, especially with the sparkly black one piece dress she was wearing. The fact that it was low cut to show off a good amount of cleavage and the skirt ending just above her knees only made her more eye appealing. Her black ankle strapped heels clicked on the floor until she reached Reno's desk. Reno stood up to give Dawn a hug. Dawn smiles, giving him a hug and a kiss on each cheek which caused the bunny to blush before they both sat down. The German Shepard sat at the love seat before bringing her legs up and stretched them along the length of the couch. The canine's torso and left arm rested against the arm of the couch. As Reno returned to his seat, he regained his composure and spoke out. "Thank you for taking the time to be on our show."
Dawn giggled before replying in her strong and sarcastic sounding feminie voice, "Thank you. Apparently we spared no expense to get the best taped applause. Couldn't we just bring in a live audience?"
The bunny shook his head. "We could but since this is the first episode of our show, we don't have an audience to bring in."
The canine flicked some of her bangs from her eyes before responding, "Sweety, you're a marketing expert and you're telling me we can't bring an audience in? Remind me why did I make you co-owner again?"
Reno clears his throat as he tried to change the subject. "Anyways, thank you for coming in today. So before we get start with any questions, let's pull up your bio up on the screen to give our viewers some more information about you.
Although Reno and Dawn could not see exactly what was going on, the directors in the back brought up a screenshot on t.v. about Dawn's profile. It read:
Name: Dawn Furrie Age: 35 Occupation: Owner, Scout and Shoot Producer for Play Vixen Relationship Status: Mated - Open relationship Likes: Horseback riding, attending social events and spending time with family and friends Dislikes: People who breaks your trust, hangovers and horror movies.
Somehow, Dawn knew what was being shown and without missing a cue as the camera focuses on them both, she opened her muzzle and spoke, "I thought we agreed that my age was not going to be shown on television. I don't look anything like my age."
The lapine nodded and replied, "Well I figured with how beautiful you are, that age is only a number and clearly, it doesn't show."
The German Shepherd murred after his response. "Now I remember why I hired you. Smooth talker." She would offer a playful wink to the male.
Reno began to blush again but quickly went back to the interview. "Anyways, let's get to some of the questions. First, your career before being owner was a variety of positions. Police officer, actress in porn movies, army medic, stripper, bartender, manager of a few local business, talent scout and now owner. What can you say about your experience going through all these positions in such a short time frame?
Dawn smiled softly as she spoke, "Well, it was certainly a roller coaster ride. I'm happy that I have great family and friends that supported me through thick and thin. I wouldn't be here today without them, that's for sure."
The bunny continued his interview, quite surprised at the normal answer response he was given. Perhaps Ryu was right. Maybe she is more professional on air than off air. "You have an interesting story of how you ended up as owner of Play Vixen. Would you like to share with everyone about that?"
The canine smiled once again before indulging her story to Reno. "Sure. My mother was a police officer and my father was the original owner of Play Vixen. Growing up wasn't easy because tension occurred easily especially if their jobs got mixed in but despite that, they still loved each other. My mom wanted me to have a great stable and in her mind legal career and have the perfect family. My dad wanted me to do whatever I wanted to do as long as I was happy. Just as I finished school, my mom got shot in the line of duty and I was drawn to follow my mom's footsteps."
Dawn hesitated a little before continuing on with her story. "After some time on the force, I got word that my father was terminally ill and asked me to take over the business. I did on condition that i can still do what i wanted career wise.. As a result, I inherited the business from him when he passed away. I did some other positions here and there but when I found out someone was trying to buy my dad's business illegally, I knew that I had to come back. Thanks to you and Lacy, I officially owned Play Vixen and here we are today."
Reno smiled as he heard Dawn's story. It always impressed him how far she came along to do what she wanted to do. Realizing there was quite a pause before the canine indicated with her expressions that she was done, the lapine spoke once again. "A great story for sure. Now on your profile, you stated that you're married but you're in an open relationship. What you didn't say was that you were married to two people. How about explaining that unique relationship to us?"
Dawn laughed a little. "I knew you were a bit of a pervert inside of you." The comment caused the bunny to blush because that wasn't his intention at all but the canine interrupted Reno before he could answer. "I'm only kidding dear. I don't mind talking about that. Back when I was a medic, I was also working part time with a great co-worker named Fiera von Kane. She was a part feline, part canine, hybrid. We fell in love and during that time, she introduced me to her sister Lupana. She is her half-blood sister as they shared the same mom. She was a part canine, part raptor. Well before I knew it, I've fallen for both but couldn't decide who I wanted. Fortunately, when I told them both of my dilemma, they both suggested marrying me but they share me between them. So I guess you can say I'm living almost every man's wet dream."
The bunny nodded. "Well now I'm sure many are curious about certain things regarding that but we'll save that for another show. Well thank you Dawn. I think we're going to wrap it up for..."
Dawn interrupted him before he could wrap up the show. "Hold on now Reno. We're not done here."
Reno looked perplexed as he was just informed the show wasn't over. "What do you mean we're not done here? I asked all the questions and you answered them. Did I forget something?"
Dawn smirked with a mischievous grin. "I know that. I mean we're not done the interview." Reno was quite confused but his curiosity would soon be answered as the canine turned her attention to the camera and begins to reveal her intentions for not finishing the interview. "Ladies and gentleman, the interviewer and the interviewed are going to switch places now. I, your new host, Dawn will be interviewing our next "Play Vixen's VIP Lounge" guest who happens to be the second co-owner of Play Vixen. He's our marketing expert and to me, the fluffiest bunny I know. Let's give a hand for Reno "Fluffy" Hidaka.
The taped audience clapping sound filled the air as the lapine sat there stunned. He had no idea he was going to be interviewed next nor that the interview is going to be done by Dawn. "Wait...what? We didn't agree to...hey! My nickname is not "Fluffy"! Dawn always called him Fluffy at work but he didn't believe she would say that in public. Reno knew this was going downhill now but since she is also co-owner of Play Vixen, he really couldn't outright stop her. Before he could try to reason with her, Dawn sat up, crossed her legs and grabbed his notes off the desk before smiling.
"You're so cute when you're mad. Too bad you got that chastity belt on and your mate holds the key."
Reno began to blush darker. "Stop teasing me like that!" The lapine realized it was useless to fight it since it seems all the crew but him knew Dawn was going to do this. After releasing a hesitant sigh, he looks to the canine and gave off a bit of a glare. "Fine. Let's get this over with."
Dawn smiled brightly. "Alright then. Let's start the show off with Reno's bio."
"Since when did you have a bio on me?" The bunny was quite confused as he thought this was a spurt of the moment idea to do the interview on him. Reno didn't think Dawn had that much time to whip one up.
"Sweety, ever since I made you co-owner, I make sure to have everyone's bio on file just i case. As the saying goes: "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer." Trust me. I know."
The lapine looked even more confused now. "Are you saying I'm a friend or an enemy?"
Dawn winked to Reno. "I'm saying that's for me to know and for you to find out sugar. Anyways, let's show his bio please."
Once again, they couldn't see the bio go up but Reno noticed there was a TV on of them being filled and he could just make out the bio from his seat. The bio read:
Name: Reno "Fluffy" Hidaka Age: 29 Occupation: Owner, Marketing Expert and Fluffy Pillow for Play Vixen Relationship Status: Mated - Closed relationship Likes: Video games, spending time with his mate and traveling Dislikes: Liars, cleaning the house and getting up too early
Reno shot another dirty glare and showed signs of some frustration from being teased by Dawn. "Argh, my middle name is not Fluffy and my profession is not a fluffy pillow! What makes you think you can...wait...how did you even know my likes and dislikes so well?"
The canine smirked and leaned over to pretend to whisper but pretty much spoke it out so the microphones could hear them. "Your mate is a very good source of info. She told me your pet name was Fluffy too and it was too cute to not let the world know."
"I think I know who my friends and who my enemies are now." Reno said with a bit of a grumpy tone.
"Oh so that means we're really close now?" The canine said in a seductive and flirty tone, adding a wink to emphasize.
"Agh, now you're twisting my words! Let's just get back to the interview" The bunny sighed as he tried to calm down from all this.
Dawn nodded. "Alright then. Let's ask some questions about you, Reno. First off, why don't you tell them how we became friends? I'm sure they want to hear this story."
Reno began to blush again before holding his arm and paw out to her in a "Stop" indication. "Dawn, this is really not the kind of story I want to tell. Besides, my mate can be watching..."
The canine grabbed onto his hand and grinned before turning to the camera and doing a sexy little lean pose to highlight more of her cleavage. "I was hired to do a strip tease for his bachelor party. He couldn't keep his eyes off me."
Reno looked stunned as he couldn't believe she just said that over the air. "DAWN!" The bunny took his hand back before covering his face with his hands and groans.
Dawn perked a brow but smirked as she really did enjoy teasing the poor bunny to no end. She would put her hand back onto her seat before continuing. "What? After the show was over, we got to talking and we made a network connection. When I told you about wanting to revive Play Vixen and being my marketing expert, you gladly offered your services. There's nothing wrong with telling people that."
The lapine moved his paws from his face and looked to her with a mor crossed look than a glare. "You're right. There's nothing wrong in telling people that we became network friends and about your offer for my services. What's wrong is that you just told the public that I knew you from a strip tease you did at my party and now my mate knows.
Dawn just jokingly laughed and patted Reno on the shoulder with her paw. "Oh sweety, I'm sure she had her own fun at her bachelorette party. Perhaps she had a few hunks herself bumping and grinding on her."
Reno did not say a word at that comment and just gave her a look that was screaming that she crossed the line. Dawn recognized that right away, pulled her hand back and decided to keep going with the interview. "Alright then. So Reno, tell us how you became a marketing expert?"
The lapine gave a sigh of relief as he was happy to hear a normal question come from her lips. "Um...well I guess it all began when I went to college for my education and..."
The German Shepard couldn't help but interrupt his speech once again and decided to add onto it. "And you were attending wild parties and having risky escapades am I right?"
"Yes and well...wait a minute! That's none of your business!" Reno said in a shocked and scared state, not wanting anyone to know that's what he did growing up before settling down. "I actually didn't party as much as most did at school. I usually just went to the library and studied."
Dawn grinned as the bunny kept setting her up for great comebacks to get him embarrassed. "Awww...well maybe we should throw a party for you. Perhaps I'll do a strip tease dance for you again like last time." The canine winked playfully to the lapine.
Reno blushed at her wink once again. "You enjoy teasing me a lot don't you?"
"You better believe it. It's always fun to make your green fur turn red." The German Shepard blew a kiss to him which the bunny ignored.
"I'm glad you're enjoying embarrassing me on TV at my expense." The bunny spoke in a sarcastic tone as he shook his head in disbelief.
Dawn did a little fake pout and spoke in a childish tone. "Don't be like that Fluffy."
Reno shot another evil glare at the canine. "My name is not Fluffy!"
Dawn smirks before fixing a strand of hair from her face. "Of course you are. Look at how soft and fluffy your fur is. It would be nice to snuggle my warm body against that soft fur of yours."
The bunny blushes once again but even darker than before as he tried to regain his composure again but this time, his voice came out cracked and high pitched. "Can we get back to the interview please?!"
Dawn nods softly. The German Shepard wasn't done with him yet. She still had one more trick up her sleeve for this interview. She would sit up straight and look at him in a more professional way than her earlier relaxed look. "Of course hun. I just have one more question for you. One of your hobbies is video games. Do you play with your friends or your mate a lot?"
Reno looked a bit stunned at the professional look she was giving as well as the normal question. He remained cautious with his answer. "Well I play more with my friends than my mate. She isn't into video games as much as I am."
Dawn nodded but kept the professional facade look going for her next question. "So I guess that means you play by yourself a lot then?"
Reno thought maybe this was a set-up so he was careful when he answered. "Back in the day, you had to bring your friends over to visit to play any multiplayer games. Now with new advances in technology, your friends can be sitting at home or frankly anywhere and play alongside or against you. All you need is a gaming console, a TV and an internet connection. So to answer your question, I do play at home by myself."
The canine smiled a little. "I hear that you love playing first person shooters a lot. Is that right?"
The lapine would respond. "Yeah, it's one of my favorites."
The German Shepard smirked very quickly. "Ah, so when you play your first person shooters, that means you must play with your personal joystick alone without your mate right?" She snickered quietly from her question as she eagerly waited for his response."
Reno looked a little bit confused by that question as it was hinted by his tone when he responded to her question. "Yeah but now we play with controllers, not joysticks."
Dawn would snicker even more, letting a little giggle out before she answered in return. "Well whatever you want to call it or what you do in private is your own business." She turned herself to face the camera and spoke to the viewing audience. "Anyways, so that's all the time we have for today..."
"Wait a second Dawn," the lapine interrupted her co-worker before she could end the show. "What did you mean by that? Whatever you want to call it or what I do in private?"
Dawn smiled as she glanced over to her fluffy friend and winked to him. "I'll let you think on that on for a second." The German Shepard returned her attention to the camera. "We had a wonderful time sharing our lives with you, the viewers. On our next episode, we're going to introduce to you our 3rd co-owner and our legal expert, Lacy Heart. Reno will be asking some more questions about her as well as sharing some of her interesting life experiences with us. From having a twin sister who doesn't even look remotely like her twin to her previous career as a magician's stage hand. So take care everyone..."
Reno interrupted Dawn once again but this time, in a more panicked and louder tone. "Oh my goddess!!! What the heck Dawn?! Why did you make me say that I do that kind of thing alone?! I do not do that by myself!
Dawn giggles softly before she spoke again. "Ah, the grasshopper finally caught on. First off, ninety-nine percent of males do it almost every day. Second, it is only fair to return the favour since you made me share some intimate details of myself. So to the viewers at home who didn't get the little joke I said, what I was saying is that he likes to..."
As Dawn was about to say it, Reno reached over and grabbed the muzzle of the canine and covered it to make the next words coming out of her mouth sound like "Mrrp murple!" Reno would then blurt out the words while Dawn tried to free her muzzle from the bunny's grasp.
"Cut to credits! Cut to credits!"
