532 FANDOM NA
ASTRID'S ears perked up when he heard that. After the released of the latest [Star List], Polaris made a poll about his possible fandom na. This fandom na would then be the na of the fan club.
This was actually sothing that's not common in this era. The people in the industry thought that it's an outdated custom. Even the general public didn't think much of it. Of course, fan clubs still existed. It's just that people only referred to them as [celebrity na]'s fan club.
Polaris didn't think the sa as the majority. They believed that a fandom with a na would make that fandom have their own identity. Which would also make them closer to the artist they're supporting.
But they also knew that not every artist under them would want that. So, they would give an option whether their artist would want to have a fandom na or not. Of course, they only offer this once the artist reached a certain recognition. After all, what's the point of having a fandom when there were no fans at all?
One of the celebrities of Polaris who agreed to that was Lauren. His fandom na was called 'Laurels'.
Even the current number one on the [Star List], Valentine Davis, had a fandom na. Funnily enough, Valentine's company did not make this fandom na nor by himself. His fans were the ones who made it.
When he started to beco number one on the list for three consecutive years, his fans jokingly referred to him as the 'emperor'. It stuck and then the fans just naturally called themselves as his loyal 'knights'. And so, his fandom na just naturally beca that. The Knights.
Astrid shared the sa opinion as Polaris, that's why he also agreed to have a fandom na. An artist and their fans were like a storyteller and their audience. What's the point of a storyteller telling their stories if there was no audience? In this line of work, one should always value the people supporting them.
"Which one won?" he asked.
He avoided looking at the poll, so he didn't know the nas that were in it. He did that because he didn't want to unintentionally like one na more than the others. This way, he wouldn't feel disappointed if the na he liked was not chosen.
"It's 'Starlight'. It won by a landslide," Ellis answered.
"Starlight..." Astrid tested saying the na. "I like it." And he was not just saying that for the sake of it. He truly liked how the na sounded. "But does it have any special aning? Or did the company only select it because it has the word 'star'?"
"It has one. Actually, all the nas they listed on the poll had anings behind them. The company really put a lot of effort into it."
"So, what does 'Starlight' an?"
"It ant you're the 'star' and they are the 'lights' that will help you shine even brighter."
Astrid was a bit surprised after hearing that. He didn't expect that it would have a very idol-like aning. He could imagine any idol group from his past life having this as a fandom na. It's pretty though.
"Since the fandom na was already decided, it will be added to Polaris' official fan community. There, you can interact with your fans, at a very minimal level, of course. Your fans can also interact with each other. It will make it easier for them to organize special events for you, things like that. Posting photos there from ti to ti could be a small reward to your fans, so please do so."
Astrid nodded. He was familiar with such things. Giving fan-service like that to fans was only natural.
"The fan club will need a president who will communicate with the fan site manager assigned by the company," Ellis continued. "But since your fandom is still relatively young, it will probably take a while for your fans to organize things by themselves and decide on who would be the president."
At the ntion of the fan club president, Astrid couldn't help but rember a comnt/s he had seen before. They were comnts teasing Wulfric's fan account about him being the president of his fan club.
Surely, no matter how irrational Wulfric could get when it ca to him, the other wouldn't lobby to beco the club president, right?
Right?
Astrid shook his head at that bad premonition. To get his mind off that possibility, he just posted sothing on [Cyberspace].

A certain number one fan was reading a new post from his favorite actor.
Astrid Townsend v: The voting pole for the fandom na has just ended. Thank you to everyone who participated! Your continued encouragent ans a lot to . I hope we can be together for a long, long ti, my Starlights! ^^
Without even thinking, he quickly posted a reply.
@astridsnumber1fan: [We will be together forever! #StarlightswithAsterForever]
Wulfric smiled in satisfaction. Starlight - he was glad that this was the fandom na that won. He also voted for this choice. Thankfully, Aster's other fans also had taste and chose it.
Their fandom needed to be more organized and unified. Especially after the hate bombardnt Aster experienced this past week. Because of those damn haters, the ti he spent this past week scouring [Cyberspace] and putting the damn bastards in their shitty place was probably much longer than what he spent doing actual work.
He didn't only have verbal battles with them, he also made sure that their [Cyberspace] account would be suspended. Seriously, if it was only up to him, he would have already sent those trash to prison. But alas, that would be abused of authority.
Of course, if soone really dared to cross the line and hurt Aster in a physical manner, he would make that person's life hell.
Wulfric honestly couldn't understand why these people would be mad at Aster for sothing that he accomplished fair and square. He shook his head. Really, what jobless behavior.
He read the comnts under Aster's post and his eye twitched when he saw trolls comnting under it. And so, he started another round of reporting those accounts and making sure they will be suspended.
