Merchandising !

Back in her cheerless dressing room, Debbi discarded the cape she had been given and tried to inspect her body for damage in the full length mirror attached to the wall opposite the tiny dressing table. The club manager came in. Debbi didn't bother to cover, figuring there was little point at this stage. "Are you OK ?" the manager enquired. He was delighted at how the show had gone but was now a little concerned that there not be any repercussions from the crowd surfing escapade. He was relieved to find Debbi apparently sanguine about the while thing.

"I'm just checking myself out for any bruising. Can you see if there's any on my bum ?" Debbi had been trying to twist and see in the mirror. The manager undertook the arduous task of inspecting Debbi's bare bum. "There may be a couple of wheals but no real damage" he reassured her. "Does anything hurt ?" he asked. "No, not really" Debbi reassured him in turn. "Thanks for sending the bouncers to rescue me." She merely wanted to put the indignity of being roughly manhandled by the crowd out of her mind.

"That's their job and it's all been a really fantastic success anyway Debbi. Thanks so much. Any time you want to do another public appearance just let me know" enthused the manager, who thought Debbi was a willing participant in her role as the scantily clad rapper. "Er, thanks. But I think that may have been Miz No-E's swan song" Debbi replied hopefully.

Solomon joined them in the tiny dressing room that suddenly became rather cramped. "Are you ready for your signing session Deb ?" he asked. "Signing session ?" queried Debbi. "Yes, didn't Lynn tell you ? We have Miz No-E merchandise !" He held up a black t-shirt emblazoned with a photo of Debbi in the knickers and stockings costume she had worn for the Rag Week performance. "We've got Sharpies for you to sign any the punters buy." Solomon thought it best not to mention the limited edition Blu Ray of tonight's performance that would be available via the cable TV channel and which was even at that moment playing on a continual loop on the screens in the club, while the DJ resumed his act !

Thus Debbi found herself seated at a table in the club entrance hall, wearing the jeans and sneakers she had arrived in but instead of her plain white t-shirt, she had on a customized Miz No-E special. Jody and Lynn were busily collecting the cash while Debbi signed and made small talk. Jody had instructed her to sign 'Lotsa Luv, Miz No-E xxx' but some of those who knew her wanted her to sign as Debbi. She dreaded to think how many of these t-shirts were going to be walking around town !
