Just wait until someone finds you

There is no staff to be seen behind the reception, but you decide to just wait it out. If anyone is truly expecting you then they should show up soon enough. And if not... you might just get the hell out of here. You glance around cautiously while you wait, taking a better look at the surroundings. After a few minutes you have half a mind to wander back towards the door, but then you spot some small black cards on top of the reception desk. Maybe folders of some kind, or anything else that can provide some information?

Just as you decide to walk over and investigate, you hear footsteps behind you. A man wearing an open bathrobe walks down the main staircase, spots you, and almost immediately disappears down a hallway on his right without even saying a word. You blink in confusion, but hope this means someone will meet you soon now. Yet another minute of waiting seems to yield no results.

You walk over to the black cards and slide one towards you with the top of of your finger and look at it. It seems to be a paper business card, with a picture of a splattered pink star on it. The letter X is printed on it three times over, and under the star are the words 'SoftSilk Studios' topped off by an exclamation mark. You raise an eyebrow at the odd logo, and are about the read the rest of the card when a man suddenly walks in from the room from behind the reception.

"Oh, hello there!", he says, and his eyes widen slightly as he seems to take note of the cards you're investigating. "Were you waiting here long?", he quickly asks. He looks middle-aged, wearing a checkered coat. Heavy glasses press on a somewhat crooked nose, but he seems friendly enough. He has an almost musical tone of voice which sounds surprisingly pleasant to listen to. He places a clipboard he was holding on the desk as he looks at you curiously.

"Hi, yes. I'm Marlow", you introduce yourself to him, quickly managing to palm one of the cards in order to slip it into your bag. "I'm here for the audition?"

He smiles, then looks you up and down thoroughly, his gaze lingering longer around your face, chest and legs. He seems to be liking what he sees, judging by his widening grin. "Ah yes, you're the girl that replied to our ad?", he asks. He lowers his glasses slightly, peering over the top of them for a moment before taking them off altogether and placing them on the desk on top of the clipboard.

You nod your head slowly. "Yes. That's me".

He claps his hands together, almost seeming excited. "Well, I'm glad you could make it! I'm Ben, but you can call me Red. Why don't you come in and take a seat so we can get started?".

He turns around to walk into the room behind the reception, and you step around the desk to follow him. He leads you inside before pointing you towards one of the couches. You sit down on it, the leather creaking, and Red sits on the one across from you.

"So, tell me a little about yourself", he says after a moment of awkward silence. "Why do you think you are a match for the movie industry?"
