Fanfiction ✬ CONSTELLATIO ✬ The World Is Your Runway | [Rookiedom]: Final Stage (1 Viewer)

The stage is dark and quiet for several seconds. Suddenly, music starts blasting through the speakers - it's the instrumental for the song 'Supermodel' from CONSTELLATIO's upcoming album.

As the music starts playing, the stage lights up. It's styled as a fashion runway shaped like the letter T, and people are seated on both sides.

The Garden of Earthly Delights by Hieronymus Bosch serves as the background of the runway, which also features several architectural references to renaissance.

Moodboard

A backup dance group consisting of 9 dancers, who performs with CONSTELLATIO since their debut days - and is well known to the group's fandom, Star Seekers - walks the runway with stern and professional expressions, just like during the Paris Fashion Week. After they finish their walk, the stage goes dark and quiet again.

The stage lights up again and another instrumental of a song from the album - 'Corrupted' - starts playing (timestamp 0:51-1:20).

Now, Leo, Crux, Orion, Fornax and Corvus, one by one emerge on the runway and walk to the end. The music goes quiet once again. The group gets into formation. For a few seconds, nothing happens, and the group stays motionless, as if taken straight from a painting.

Then, the title track of their upcoming album, which is fully in English - 'Strike A Pose' - starts playing.

Lyrics:

Your eyes follow me like a moonray
But who is the real prey here?
I know I am a masterpiece
So please, don’t stop me.

I’ve been around enough to know
That life is too short
So there is no fear now to be gold
Just strike a pose!

Dreams of love, dreams of war
Everybody wants a thrill now
God knows I tried to be good
But I was born to be the dark muse

My life is a runway
So, strike a pose!

Choreography

As the performance finishes, the stage goes dark for the last time. Suddenly, five words appear on the screen:

The release of the 2nd Full Album 'Strike A Pose' coincides with CONSTELLATIO's participation in Rookiedom. The group promoted the title track, as well as two other tracks, as a part of the final stage.

'Strike A Pose' marks the first full group comeback since March 2023, when they released their 1st Mini Album 'Astrochemistry'. In June, Orion made his solo debut with a digital album 'Wanna Be Myself'.

The album consists of 9 new songs, all co-written and co-produced by leader Leo. The album also includes as a bonus track a collaboration song with Starfall - 'Summer Memories' - that was performed during the third stage of Rookiedom. (@Blooming)

In the first week of its release the album became CONSTELLATIO's best selling album to date, having sold 300k units and was certified Platinum. 'Strike A Pose', which is the groups first full English song, has entered Billboard Hot 100 Chart at #83, making it the group's first ever entry. The song also appeared on domestic charts, and became popular on TikTok.
