Charlie Nash’s Age of Consent Ritual
Life, MilestoneCharlie waited all day on his fifteenth birthday for his forearm tattoo to appear. His moms asked him to wait until the next day to go down to the maze of alleys near the spaceport to complete the ritual. The alleys was where all the teenagers of Plouto completed their Age of Consent ritual. Charlie agreed, but as soon as his tattoo appeared his brother escorted him to the alleys anyway and pimped him out to a Marine Sergeant who popped Charlie’s cherry in front of his brother.

Euterpe Holds Auditions for Catamites to join their Boy Band
Cultural eventThe Executive, Humphrey Boswell, who watched Worley Harper, (or Harley as his name was then,) and Eric Morton perform, went to the CEO of Euterpe Recording Company and pitched putting together a boy band to him. All they needed to do was to find two, or three, more boys.
Within two days they held auditions, for which thousands of boys came to the first round, and then narrowed down the selection. Word of the auditions spread fast, thanks to holographic ads, and also ads in the Dream Program. Many people found it annoying when a random dream character appeared in their shared lucid dream and interrupted their dreamed sex act by telling them about an audition, but almost 90 percent who turned up did so because they saw the dream ad, not the holographic one.

Charlie makes it through the open auditions for Crushed Velvet via hologram.
Cultural eventInstead of making thousands of boys come to Sisyphus Prime from planets all over the Coalition, to audition for the boy band, they set up local auditions on every planet and projected them as hologram to the main audition in Aeolus City, for the first round of auditions. Only the ones who got called back for the next round had to go to Aeolus City. Charlie Nash had his first audition in Plouto.

Charlie moves to Aeolus City
Life, RelocationHaving gotten the callback for the next round of auditions for Crushed Velvet Charlie moved from his parents home in Plouto on Tantalus Prime to Aeolus City on Sisyphus Prime. Charlie’s moms Margaret and Joanna objected to the move, especially since the auditions were nowhere near over, with no guarantee that he would be in the band. Margaret’s brother, Humphrey Boswell, said that he would make sure that Charlie was in the band. Joanna pointed out that that wouldn’t be fair to the others who were auditioning and suggested that Humphrey probably should recuse himself where Charlie was concerned. Humphrey never recused himself, and in fact played a little dirty to get Charlie in the band. At first Charlie stayed at the same hotel as the others who auditioned, except Humphrey payed for Charlie’s room. Later Charlie shared an apartment with the other band members. Both the hotel and the apartment were located in the Slice. The dance studio where the auditions were held, and the recording studio owned by Euterpe Recording Company were also in the Slice. Many of the boys at the auditions, including Charlie, would go out at night and earn a bit of money working as catamites.

Crushed Velvet record their first album
Artistic creationThey went into the studio just a few days after the public announcement that the group existed. The main reason it took so long to record was the constant power struggle between the band members, lead by Harley, and their manager, Humphrey Boswell. Harley, Eric and Elliot wanted to record the songs that Harley wrote while Humphrey wanted to record the ones by a freelance songwriter that he’d hired, and Charlie pretended to side with his uncle, Humphrey. Lewis tried to stay out of the drama, but almost every day there would be a moment when Charlie and Lewis disappeared, and fifteen minutes later the bathroom would light up with holographic fireworks and then they would come out and the band would record one of Harley’s songs.

Crushed Velvet have their first live performance
Cultural eventOn the same day as the release of the album they crossed the equator to Boulder Island for the annual Winter Solstice Festival concert at the Plaza in the center of the island. Humphrey tried to limit it to the band mouthing along with the recording of the three songs that he bought from an outside songwriter. They got a chilly reception from the audience. Then Harley pulled one of his stunts, revealing an orchestra that played a handful of his songs, which they sung live, and the crowd loved it.

The Titanomachy Tour
Cultural eventTo promote their first album, Titanomachy, Crushed Velvet went on tour throughout The Trident Coalition plus a few sovereign Hellenistic worlds. They performed songs from the album, stayed at hotels, partied and had lots of sex, both with each other and with groupies. Sex between band members often occurred on stage during concerts, especially during one of Harley’s songs, which had sexually explicit lyrics.

Humphrey joins Crushed Velvet on Dionysos
Cultural eventThe band’s manager, Humphrey Boswell, joined Crushed Velvet on Dionysos for their concert on the stage outside Hotel Silenus. Humphrey claimed it was because the gig there was “such an important part of the tour.” The real reason was so that he could trash the hotel suite and blame it on Harley. He wasn’t very smart about it, since he did it while the band was on stage, so they all had alibis.

Eric, Charlie, Lewis and Elliot dies during an orgy
Life, DeathThe wrap party for the third album of Crushed Velvet soon turned into an orgy between the band members, while consuming alcohol and sniffing poppers. Their manager, Humphrey Boswell, was guilty of putting the Ear Worm Virus on the second and third albums of the band. Hoping to cover his tracks, Humphrey murdered four out of five band members. Worley Harper was supposed to have died too, but survived and was briefly suspected of the murder.
