Midnight's Asagumo Pad

The home of Motoyoshi Kaoru aka "Midnight" in Asagumo City on Port Jiyuu. It was acquired in YE 43.

History and Background

In YE 43, when Motoyoshi Kaoru aka "Midnight" started the YTP Entertainment venture she opted out of the expected housing arrangement at Asagumo-jo. Instead she established a super-modern pad at the YTP Entertainment HQ to better suit her needs as a performer during her off time from the Star Army of Yamatai and for some independence from the Motoyoshi Clan.

Long-time friend, Amaya Shiori maintains the residence and handles her civilian affairs while she is deployed with the Star Army of Yamatai.

"Midnight" was very specific about her needs; she wanted a residence that suited her style and captured the civilian side of her life. She also wanted a place where she could host private gatherings and have enough accommodations to house some of her sisters or some of her other company. Her residence occupies the 58th and 59th floor of the building, directly beneath the exclusive private nightclub run by her company.

Motoyoshi Kaoru aka "Midnight" can tune in when quantum communications and VR are available while is deployed.

Common Lighting and Decor

The interior of the main pad has blue-tinted LED lighting that gives the entire space a festive vibe. An ideal atmosphere which makes the bright neon-colored lighting displays like the hot purple Midnight Infinity infinity mark that appears in several places in the pad. Other lighting displays include wall-mounted Tokyo Brewing Company logos with special Gunship Lager Promos and a “Sign the Waiver” copy of a Yui Planet Cracker promotion from the Brew Pub Menu.

The pad also includes several Solid Volumetrics displays including an animated striptease by Trouble Nekos leader Kaieda Meiri and a Nepleslian “Strong Arms and Thick Pipes” adult video sequence purchased with her sister, Motoyoshi Naoko in mind. Other unique decor includes a collection of different YTP Entertainment posters and a private collection of lewd photos starring herself, her sisters, and her friends.1)

The residence has several illuminated aquariums featuring colorful sea life native to Jiyuu III including live coral and various jellyfish. She is especially fond of species that have bioluminesence so that during parties they provide additional feature lighting.

Wrap Around Balcony

An extra-wide spacious balcony with four corner spaces that serve as small dance floors that have secure staircases that lead up to the YTP Entertainment rooftop club. The balcony includes stylish synthetic leather weather-proof outdoor furniture, an outdoor hibachi, and bar setup. The railing and overhang above the balcony is decorated with a variety of small colored lights that can be programmed and linked into the pad's sound system.

Kitchen Facilities

Private Recording and Practice Studio

A control room with all the equipment for recording and producing, as well as the pad's private KAIMON-GATE system which controls all the systems in the residence and handles the communications of recorded and produced data. The second area is a performance studio for singing, dancing, and choreography that is well lit with adaptive lighting and has polished toft bamboo floors that are stained black. There is a classic neon red sign which hangs in the doorway between the control room and the studio that will say “On-Air” when recording is in progress.
