Who: future is now and maybe visitors?
Where: future is now
When: Day 138, morning

[ A young man wakes up in his bedroom. It just so happens that today, Day 138, is the date he will make his idol debut in Imeeji Idol Productions! Although it was ten years, three months, and two days since he was given a name, it is only today that he will be given an idol name!

What will that new name be? ]

In truth, we all have something to gain from that arrangement. Even pawns of Asmodeus would rather not be pawns of anyone.

[softlyfalling]

At minimum, I suppose we all want ourselves and those we care about to be free of this place.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Exactly.

And while we would all be foolish to believe in wholehearted idol camaraderie and justice for all.

There's always bonding over spite and pettiness.

[softlyfalling]

...I suppose that's certainly true.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Are you above some things?

You in particular seem fun when you're angry.

[softlyfalling]

...I don't really get angry.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Ever?

[That sounds like a challenge?]

[softlyfalling]

It's, er. Sometimes I'd prefer to be angry? But it doesn't really come easily to me.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Is that across the board? Or just anger?

[softlyfalling]

Oh, um... no, it's really just getting angry.

Mostly I just, er... worry a lot, which I suppose is in part why I'm here.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Worry about what in particular? The possibilities are limitless.

[And not in a good way]

[softlyfalling]

...believe me, I'm aware.

[ tfw you have an anxiety disorder but your society doesn't have a name for that ]

Sort of, ah... well, I worry about everyone here, I suppose. Whether I'm properly supporting my unit; whether the young ones are doing alright in these circumstances; whether we can keep peace outside of games; how to do the least harm in games...

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Sounds like you have little time to be doing much else.

[softlyfalling]

I’d really prefer to replace some of that with doing something concrete, is the point.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Unfortunately, we're still in the information gathering stage. Not exactly exciting. Or fruitful at the moment - since we can't buy interviews with the hosts anymore.

But if you want to lend a hand, there's always room for one more.

[softlyfalling]

Mm, that certainly makes sense. If there does come an opportunity where I might be of assistance—please let me know.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

There is one thing I can think of. That I think you have the right level of discretion -- and discipline to handle.

[softlyfalling]

—what is it?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

There's someone under my employ that's vitally important to me. B - on AlcheME!
My head of PR. Being the social butterfly he is, I'm sure you've at least heard of him.

He'd be loathe to know I was asking for someone to look out on his behalf, but---

If there is every a dangerous situation you find the both of you in, I'd ask that your protect him. It's important that he stays sane and safe. For all our sakes.

[softlyfalling]

I know him well enough that I know he'd be alarmed at the idea of anyone wanting to fight for him, yes, but... I also know him well enough that I'd do it anyway.

He's a good young man.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Good. Then that speeds up that conversation.

[softlyfalling]

You can count on me.
