Story - summarized
Momo wants to audition for the upcoming movie “Space Panda.” He easily gets the part... the hardest part is training for the role. The film crew is on a tight budget and schedule, and they can’t afford reshoots.
First challenge is food. The crew will provide meals, but Momo is expected to eat at least some of the bamboo from the set. And Momo doesn’t like the taste of plain bamboo. So, he and Nikki search for the best bamboo recipes.
His latest attempt causes an explosion in the kitchen. Momo, covered in soot, dashes to the other room for shelter. When it calms down, he returns and examines his recent attempt. Rice and BBQ are falling out of the bamboo tube, but it surprisingly tastes amazing. With this, Momo is set for the filming, as well as practice eating the bamboo for his character.
The next challenge is to practice in zero-gravity space. If Momo is going to be in the film, he needs to get his movements just right. No reshoots. Thankfully, Marina and Aeon build a zero-g studio on the Ark for Momo to practice in. It takes a few tries before he is able to maintain his balance in the air. Marina flips through the air gracefully, but Momo’s paws are too small for grabbing the rings on the ceiling.
Just as he’s about to give up, Nikki suggests practicing with snacks instead. Momo easily dives through the air to collect his yummy reward. He learns flips, dives, and poses to do in the air. He is all set for the filming!
...But when the group watches the practice footage from the zero-g studio, something isn’t right. Besides the goofy technical errors, Momo seems less like he’s a determined and brave captain leading his people to shelter, and more like he’s about to fight in wars and conquer all of space. Momo ponders over his role before he finally gets into character.
Thanks to all of Momo’s practice and hard work, the filming wraps up smoothly. The film “Space Panda” is a hit! A local zero-g gym wants to sponsor Momo. Proudly, he heads over to the studio where some kids are already playing in the air.
One of them flails and gets upset when he can’t reach the walls. Momo leaps into the room and deftly saves the kid. All of them recognize him as Captain So Panda and want photos with him and autographs. Momo flourishes under the spotlight.
After a fulfilling day, Momo heads home, paws laden with gifts and cards from his new fans. He puts them someplace safe, and then he focuses on the gift wrappings as he sorts the recycling. He still feels in character and wants to protect his planet and his people, just like Captain Panda.
Connections
-Momo isn’t the only one involved in the film industry. Mercury’s Reflection Glittering Era shows how he took over the Flying Star film company.
-Whether it’s for a movie role like this or a Halloween costume for Nikki like in Pumpkin Witch, Momo always does extensive research for his project.
Fun Facts
-This is the global server’s first collab suit, done with iPanda.
-Momo had a hard time finding a way to make bamboo tasty for him because cats are carnivores. They mainly eat meat.
