Vil and Jobs (pt4)

Idia suggests sending Vil in to handle the Fairy Gala situation as “fashion shows are his thing” and Vil refuses, saying that someone of his stature could hardly do fashion shows for free.

Vil has a voiceline saying that he would like to get better at drawing, which would be useful for creating proposals for collaboration with brands that he likes.

On the subject of traveling with his father as a child Vil says that the opportunity to interact with people from different places was a priceless gift, teaching him how to be a better judge of character and analyze different kinds of behavior, which helped with his acting.

He also mentions shooting a movie in the savanna, where an elephant dumped water on his head. “I think he meant it as a gift.”

Vil wonders if he will start getting more offers around combat sports after winning the Cloudcalling event tournament, saying, “I don’t want to cultivate too rough an image.”

Vil says he is interested in improving his flight skills but for his work as an actor rather than his grades, as “it would be nice to be able to shoot airborne scenes without relying on CG or wires,” and it might be even more useful on the other side of the camera.

Vil takes a job at the school store during New Year’s on the basis that it is a good opportunity to experience something he doesn’t normally do, and he might be able to use it in his acting.

Vil says he has been in an action movie in the past, and he expresses interest in the horror-themed attractions at Playfulland as they may give him inspiration for movie makeup for props.

After three hours of Vil “wailing” at the end of Book 6 Jamil comments, “He’s definitely not a famous actor for nothing. He can project way better than regular people,” and Sebek also comments on Vil’s “incredible lung capacity” for being able to sustain screaming at such a high volume for their entire dream-hopping journey.
