A storm of events unfolded on Tweeter and other social media. The world stirred as a brief video of a mysterious ethereal beauty roaming around Tokyo with a group of attendants was captured and posted online. Then there was the release of the groundbreaking interactive visual novel from Alteris around the same time that the interactive stream/Anime of Ilgarde reached its climax. This, in addition to Titors completely immersive VRMMORPG <World Line> finally opening its servers and the various other big news events made for a flurry of drama, excitement, and tension across the globe.
But for the Prodigy girls, it was just another day.
Sitting at a table in the break room at the Myth Inc. HQ building, the Prodigy girls stared at each other with a stack of papers between them.
Silence stretched for a while, the girls pointedly ignoring the papers.
And then Chihiro jumped out of her chair and screamed. Argh! I just wanna stream! Why do we have to do all this paperwork?!
Yuri let out a dry laugh and said, Didnt you hear from Uncle Kai? Being an idol isnt all fun and games.
Thats not what I got told at the interview! Chihiro ran her hands through her hair, frazzling it a bit, and then said, How am I supposed to do all of this and go to school at the same time?!
Yuri blinked and then said, Oh yeah. Youre still in school.
Chihiro glared at Yuri and said, I dont want to hear that from you, Miss Dropout.
Yuri bristled and said, "It's only for this year! I'll go back eventually."
Shu shrugged and said, "School's only important to get a job, right? Since we have one, it doesn't really matter."
Chihiro sighed and sat back down. I guess. But I still have to go to school- Wait. She looked at Shu and said, How are you juggling all of this with school, Shu?
Eh. Shu shrugged and said, Its just another job. And this one is more fun than the other jobs Ive had to do too.
Chihiro shook her head and then looked over at Suzume. What do you think about this, Suzu-chan?
Suzume paused in the middle of flipping through some papers. Pardon? She blinked and said, My apologies. I thought it would be best if we started sooner rather than later, so I was reading.
Chihiro covered her face. Forget it. She let out a deep sigh and then reached out to grab some of the papers as well. Flipping through them, she grabbed a small packet with her name and then grumbled. I still dont understand why we need to get permissions to stream things. Cant we just do whatever we want since John has Screw You money on the level of entire countries?
Yuri grabbed the papers next and started flipping through them. As she did, she said, Thats because Myth Inc. isnt a black company, and because were idols. Not to mention that Uncle Kai doesnt want us to make the same mistakes as his girls did Anyway. She flipped a page and said, It looks like we need to figure out a proper group collab
Ooh! Shu raised her hand and said, Lets spar!
Chihiro gave Shu a blank stare and said, ...Do you only think about fighting, Shu?
No. But wouldnt it be a cool movie?" She paused and then muttered, "Movie... movie?" Her eyes lit up and she said, "Ooh!" She smacked her fist into her palm and said, "What if we make a movie and premiere it on the Project MirAIs channel?"
Yuri kept filling out the forms and said, "Talk about that sort of thing after we finish our anime. Did you forget how much work we have to do for that already?"
"Oh." Shu sighed and said, "I forgot about that..."
"That's because you barely have any lines in the beginning." Yuri rubbed her face and muttered, "Why do I have to be the responsible one in the group?"
Suzume set her packet of papers down before grabbing another. After that, she looked up at Yuri and said, "Remember that you can ask me to help at any time, Yuri."
"Thanks, Suzu-chan. And start filling out the forms, Shu."
Shu stared at the stack of papers for a while before sighing and grabbing a bundle from her pile. "And here I thought I was done with office work..."
Chihiro looked at everyone else filling out paperwork and then stood up, preparing to chuck down her stack of papers.
Before she could, Yuri glared at her and said, "If any of these fall down, you're filling them all by yourself."
Chihiro froze and then gingerly set her pack of papers down on the table. After that, she said, "I'm done."
Yuri looked up at her and raised an eyebrow. "...You're done?"
Chihiro crossed her arms and said, "Forget about all these permission things. If I have to do that to play and stream what I want, then I'll do it myself!"
Yuri blinked and then said, "...Yes. That's why we're filling out these forms, Chichi."
"Stop calling me that, Riri. And that's not what I mean."
"...Then what do you mean?"
Chihiro pulled out her phone and started walking away. "You'll see. You'll aaalll see..." Cackling to herself, she hopped into the elevator and left.
And then it was just Shu, Yuri, and Suzume sitting around the table.
Silence.
After a while, Shu glanced at Chihiro's stack of paper and then looked over at Yuri. "...Don't those still have to be finished?"
Yuri's eyebrow started twitching. But then she closed her eyes and let out a deep sigh. "...Ignore it for now." She paused and then said, "And since Chichi walked out, I guess we'll decide on the collab by ourselves- Wait." She quickly reached out and started flipping through the piles of permissions. "We have permission to play <World Line>, right?"
Suzume set down another finished stack of documents and then nodded. "We should, yes."
Yuri covered her mouth with her hand and then laughed. "Ohohoho. In that case..." She looked at Shu and said, "You wanted to spar, right, Shu? I have the perfect idea..."
