Alexa had seen the small young girl from down the hall, although they were from ‘rival’ groups, the trainee had still watched Princesses debut number and kept up with their pre-debut activities. She’d be lying if she said she hadn’t wished to have danced to some of those songs herself. So when she recognized Bitna, someone she’d only met maybe once or twice, she rushed over to her. The other girl didn’t seem to notice her presence until they were less than a foot apart.

“Hi! Bitna, right? I just wanted to say congratulations on your debut. The song is such a fun jam. I’ve been listening a lot. You should be very proud, I hope you are.” Alexa couldn’t deny the slightly envy she had that Princess debuted before them and with such a fun vibe. But the thought of the two groups growing over the years and possibly becoming front runners together in the industry pleased her.

Bitna's hand raised to her cheek, expressive in her surprise. The word debut, the realization that she was officially an idol now, still hadn't sunk in properly. "Oh!" She bowed her head quickly, showing her gratitude while also giving her a moment to think of a proper response. "Thank you so much. We worked hard on it, so I'm really glad you like it!"

She took a moment, observing the girl in front of her. She immediately recognized her as a member of Nyx. Princess' supposed rival group. While the internet was having a field day pitting the two girl groups together, Bitna wasn't a fan of all the hostility. She rather preferred the idea of a friendly rivalry, with emphasis on the friendliness. She already considered herself a fan of Nyx, even if they hadn't debuted yet, and she really liked the idea of the two groups rising to the top together. "You're... Alexa, right?" The urge to use honorifics was strong -- Bitna wasn't used to anyone being younger than her -- but she managed to refrain. "I'm so excited for to Nyx's debut! The concept trailer was so cool! And I really liked the dance video you guys put up the other day! I'm even learning it myself 'cause it looked so fun!"
