Good morning!

My name is Nephelea Autumnsong, and as many of you know, I am a courtesan of a very high pedigree.

But, while this is in the same vein, it is not so carnal as all that.

I would like to offer my services as someone you may hold and be comforted by. Sex is, of course, not necessary for such a thing. I am told I am quite soft and comfortable to lie upon. So, if this strikes your interest, please feel free to message me here, or privately.

Lovingly,

Nephelea

I'm... I don't believe I know what those are.

[Azeroth: S.E.L.F.I.E cameras, tanks, and airships, but absolutely nothing in the way of non-stageplay entertainment. A shame, really.]

[holeful]

Oh!
[He seems excited that he gets to explain.]

It's like this! Recorded video. But it's pre-recorded. Think of it like a recorded play?

[sweet_malanore]

Oh! Do they use magic for effects as well?

[Sin'dorei children used magic tricks to entertain themselves so surely they should have similar affects.]

Like this! [She makes a few sparkles on her fingertips, letting them float about like little fireflies?] But larger and with more mana?

[holeful]

[SPARKLES!! Fukuda is entertained for a moment. Gets distracted. Then remembers what's happening.]

Oh! Well, where I'm from, magic isn't real? We use computers to make special effects. Or, well, I shouldn't say that. There's a long tradition and variety of equipment used to make practical effects too.

[sweet_malanore]

That's a shame; I can't imagine I time I didn't have magic of some manner. But a practical effect is very similar to what humans use in the south of my country.

[With a flick of a wrist, the lights dim and fade.]

I think I would like to see a "movie" very much.

[holeful]

[He is so jazzed right now. Fukuda loves movies.]

I want to try to figure out how to make them here! If I'm able to, you can definitely come to the premiere!!

[sweet_malanore]

Thank you! I'll look forward to it!

[There's not a trace of guile in her voice. In fact she looks quite excited.

An orange-and-white cat comes out from behind her and settles over her shoulder. Nephelea appears used to it, and strokes the cat's back.]

So what is.. Teevi?

[holeful]

[Fukuda waves at the cat! Hello cat.]

Oh, TV is a bit like movies! But usually tv shows are shorter and in a series, so instead of one movie that is an hour or two long, you have a story told over multiple 30 minute episodes.

[Cinnamon seems less enthused about the voice on the other end as he makes Nephelea hold him the same way one might hold a fussy baby. She even pats his back and rocks side to side.

Cinnamon is clearly spoiled.]

That seems like it would take a very long time to finish the story. And you say they're popular?

[holeful]

Oh yeah! Some of them go on for years. But a lot of times, each episode is a separate story with the same characters. So you don't always have to wait forever for a finished story.

[sweet_malanore]

That is a relief. My people live a long time, but I would not wish to wait decades and decades for one story to finish.

[There's no telling how long she thinks these TV shows go on for.]

There's a romance series where I am from that chronicles the love life of a human paladin, and they seem like what you describe. Contained in one book, but an overarching story.
