Priscilla: Well…..

This ask is referencing this old post here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/game-recognize-63458559

Gigi (Gianna Gabor) got some tweaks to both her design and personality. While she is still friendly and welcoming, she’s now, well….a lot less dumb. Gigi puts on a cutesy, vapid, bubble-brained facade to encourage people to drop their guard around her. Bit underneath all that fluff she is a shrewd and calculating business woman…and she’s more than willing to get cutthroat if it means maintaining her social media empire. Gigi will fire someone with a smile on her face, and she’ll be so sugary-sweet apologetic about it that somehow the employee is the one that ends up feeling guilty?

I’m leaving it up to y’all to determine whether Gigi’s gesture here is performative (aren’t I oh-so generous?) or genuine (in a mildly condescending way- she thinks Priscilla is too intimidated to charge her money and Gigi’s girlboss sensibilities won’t stand for this level of meekness).

Idk how well I captured it, but Gigi is meant to have a low, raspy voice with a very strong Italian-New York accent (think stereotypical “ay, I’m walkin here!”). She is a celebrity influencer and manages her own popular digital media company, a Buzzfeed-like female-focused content hub that Iiiiiii still need to think of a name for. Skye is a rising journalist at this company, as is Jupe. Gigi is their boss!
