Damage Control

"Koga, it doesn't look good. I thought I'd be blunt and get that out right away" his manager always wasn't one for holding back. "Listen, you're going to need to stay low for awhile, and hope this all blows away" Koga rubbed his chin and sat back on his recliner. He had finally turned on the holo-vision, and indeed, this little gaffe of his was the #1 trending topic on all of the sports and entertainment programs.

 

"Perhaps, it was all the hits to head" one reporter suggested. "Au know, they say au loose IQ points each time au get hit in the head. And the amount of times S'Bien has been socked, I would say his intelligence is on par with that of a potato. And this last gem of a message he sent to that fan, seems to only prove my point" the audience laughed. "And that folks, is this week's #1 bone-headed move of the week! Join us next for...." Koga turned off the holo-viewer. "Ie, not my best choice of actions. I wasn't even drunk that time either. I was trying to catch my dinner and got distracted" he replied.

 

"Well, I think it'd be best for au to lay low for awhile. We'll issue a public apology in your name. Hopefully, things will settle down and over the next few days, it'll just blow over and be old news" his manager said. "But, then we don't know who we are dealing with here. I would say that this woman you've ticked off does have some fairly influential connections. It doesn't seem to be the garden variety fan here. I would be careful on your next actions, as not to further escalate this"

 

Koga nodded. Even though he was retired and didn't have any sponsorship or acting gigs, he still had his honour and reputation to think about. "Let's do that. Perhaps, I should have worded that better. Issue the statement, and let's see what happens".
