Returning Transcendent Opens an Idol Agency

Chapter 368: – A Prototype Slice of Life – III

Hana Homura's Tweeter account. There, on an ordinary Friday afternoon, a Tweeter space quietly started.

@similarLard: A guerilla stream?

@sugaryPepper: Is Project MirAIs doing more Tweeter stuff since John bought it?

@grumpyViper: The fact that the space doesn't have a title is a bit ominous...

"Hello?" Hana's voice, a hushed whisper, echoed from the Tweeter space. "Is this working right?"

@emptyRat: We can hear you loud and clear, Hana!

@dejectedVenison: What's with the whispering?

@cynicalThrushe: Aaah, Hana ASMR... ^_^

Hana let out a soft giggle and then said, "It's not an ASMR stream. It *is* secret though."

Some rustling sounds echoed before Hana continued. "I'm with Onee-chan and Aneue right now. Since our Kouhai are streaming later, I didn't want to take any attention from them, but Aneue is being annoying. Sooo... I wanted to give everyone a sneak peek of what she's *really* like."

@vengefulPie: omg

@somberTacos: Hana! You can't let the intrusive thoughts win!

@sugaryChamois: Hold on. Let her cook.

"Now, I won't be talking too much to you guys, but-"

"Hey, Sis. What are you mumbling about over there?" Aoko's voice echoed from the distance. Shortly after, Alfi's voice echoed.

"If we don't hurry, the pop up cafes are going to close. I want to get some gifts, so can we hurry up?"

There was some more rustling sound and then Hana spoke up in a louder voice. "Sorry, Aneue, Onee-chan! I was just adding to my voice journal."

"You keep a voice journal, Sis? Since when?"

"That's a secret~!"

"...I swear. You've become even more bratty since I've met you."

"Well, isn't that how a baby sister is supposed to be, Aneue?"

"Tch."

@importedSmelt: OMG. Queen is a tsundere IRL too?

@pluckyCoconut: Hana really is being a bit more bratty recently...

@mellowRat: Wait. So like, Hana and Aoko are sister frfr?

@mellowSeahorse: Alfi's real voice is beautiful too, aaaahhhh

@dopeyBass: Isn't this kind of dangerous?

@kindViper: Our fearless imouto is back at it again, huh?

@sadBuck: No slice of life anime about Prototype, but I'll take BTS.

@spiritedSeahorse: You can have your Kpop boyband! I'll stick to best idols Project MirAIs. ^_^

@worldlyThrush... I don't think you know what BTS means...

"Anyway!" Hana spoke up in a bright and cheerful voice and said, "Do you have any cafes you want to visit, Aneue?"

Aoko hummed and said, "Well, my favorites don't show up until the summer, but I think there's a few interesting ones I wanna look at."

Alfi chimed in and said, "Oh! Can we go visit the Hokai Express Cafe?"

"Eh?" Hana spoke up and said, "You play that game, Onee-chan?"

"Mmhm! I like the cute conductor! And the main character is funny too!" Alfi giggled and said, "He reminds me of Papa when he used to rummage in trash for useful treasures!"

@solemnMackerel: Alfi plays gacha games?

@alertBurritos: Ah, another Trash King enjoyer.

@solidChowder: Sponsored stream soon?

@jubilantCod: Wait. So all of that random lore drop about John is real?

@spiritedApricots: This is staged, right? There's no way John would have done that.

@mercifulPudding: I mean, this is JOHN we're talking about...

@joyfulRuffs: Anyone got a read on where they are?

@vengefulThrushe: The cafe's in Akiba!

@chicPonie: I'm at the train station right now, but I don't see anyone who could be the girls...

The sound of random chatter echoed in the background. In the distance, the faint sounds of a speaker making train annoucements echoed as well.

There was a bit more rustling, and then Hana's voice came through a bit clearer than before. "Let's see... I think the closest cafes are the more popular anime... Oh! It looks like Betty nee-chan is having a pop-up cafe for her game!"

@ecstaticSnail: So we're just going to skip past that lore bombshell?

@humorousStork: @loreowl

@loreowl: Just leave me be. I'm still processing the lore behind the Empress in V-Show Girls.

@gloomyWeaver: @loreowl What's there to process? It's totally Jenny.

@thriftyBuzzard: "Betty nee-chan?"

@grudgingJerky: Hanaaaa! Don't just drop random lore on us!

@chicIcecream: Wait. So is Alfi really Hana's big sister?

@soreMandrill: No, it's definitely Aoko who's Hana's big sister.

@zestySyrup: Why does Hana call Alfi Onee-chan then?

@insecureCake: ...Is the AlfixAoko ship not just a tease?

@coffeeenjoyer: Wait. The Kofi ship is real!?

@sadPonie: @coffeeenjoyer I still think that's a stupid ship name.

More rustling sounds echoed, and then Hana's voice sounded a bit muffled, like something had covered the mic. "Do you think we can get some free loot?"

Alfi hummed and said, "I don't think Betty will mind... but won't she be busy?"

Aoko clicked her tongue. "Knowing her, she'll probably be too busy shoving away all the simps."

"Simps?" Alfi spoke up and then said, "What are simps, Asa-chan?"

"...I swear we've had this conversation before, Alfi."

Hana spoke up and said, "Ooh! I know this! Aren't simps just like Garbage-san? They're guys who let girls walk over them and give money, right?"

@importedWidgeon: @StraightGarbage

@drearyChile: @StraightGarbage You still alive, mate?

@fondMeerkat: @StraightGarbage That offhand burn XD

@needfulOtter: I mean yes, but actually no...

@ardentDinosaur: At least Hana didn't call us that?

@proudsimpson: There's nothing wrong with being a simp!

@decimalPudding: @proudsimpson Okay, then change your name so that it won't be read as proud simpson, bro.

@wearyHare: So is Hana normally like this, or is she acting up?

@somberMallard: Since Alfi and Aoko aren't reacting to it, I guess she's normally like this?

@HanaOniiChan: ...It's not because of the Ohana, right? Our imouto used to be so sweet and pure...

The sounds of sliding doors echoed, along with the background noise of a loud crowd. The lively hustle and bustle of Akihabara on a Friday afternoon.

"Let's see..." Hana hummed and said, "I think Betty nee-chan's shop is that way!"

Aoko sighed and said, "You mean through the crowd of sweaty overweight otakus?"

"Hey!" Hana huffed and said, "Just because they're overweight doesn't mean you should make fun of them, Aneue! You're insulting most of the Ki-Sama!"

@adoringSalami: I-Imouto...? T_T

@brainySausage: I-I'm not that bad! ...Am I?

@jealousBobolink: Wait. I... think I'm in that crowd...

@soreDingo: Hey! Just because we're trash doesn't mean we don't have standards!

@tautOwl: Yeah! We might be simplords for Queen, but we aren't weirdos!

@drearyTomatoe: Being a bastard is one thing, being an otaku is another!

@wearyWhiting: Since when did Hana become such a little gremlin?!

@holisticBass: This is what happens when you stream so much, huh?

@morbidIcecream: I hope she doesn't tease her kouhai this much.

Footsteps echoed, along with the sounds of people moving around.

Hana's voice echoed and she said, "Excuse us! Coming through!"

Aoko spoke up afterwards and said, "I think you're letting the fame get to your head, Sis... Aren't you being rude?"

Hana huffed and said, "Just because we're idols doesn't mean we aren't people, Aneue! Besides, they're the ones being rude! They aren't even lined up properly! Oh, except for those guys over there... Huh? Wait. Onee-chan, aren't those some Alfis?"

"Oh!" Alfi spoke up in a bright voice and said, "I think they are! Hi- Mmph?!"

Aoko quickly spoke in a hushed voice and said, "Quiet, Alfi! You'll blow our cover!"

@jumpyMandrill: We've got the location! Anyone got a read on the girls?

@superiorEagle: I'm in that crowd, but I don't see anyone that matches...

@lazyOrange: There's more than just three cute girls around in a group... It could be any one of them.

@kindKitten: Yosh! Alfi-sama is watching!

@murkyQuiche: You hear that? Alfi-sama praised our orderly conduct!

@solidQuiche: For Alfi-sama!

@puzzledWigeon: Aoko-chan! You may be Alfi-sama's beloved, but to restrain her is too far!

@crummyFlamingo: To dare besmirch Alfi-sama's honor...!

@resolvedFish: Rally against the wind! Slay the dragon!

@soreSeagull: Yeah! Let's go lay that dragon!

@wrathfulFish: We JUST said we aren't pervs, dumba$$!

@resolvedUnicorn: Oh god, this Tweeter space is gold.

@obsessedPepper: Anyone saving the VOD? This totally isn't going to stick around.

@fondBuck: Eh? Everytime I try to record it, the recording comes out a garbled mess.

@mereFish: Isn't that like, physically impossible?

"Oof... Made it!" Hana laughed and then said, "Nee-chan! Hi!"

"Hm?" A beautiful and mature voice sounded out. "Hana? Big sister? Aoko? What are you three doing here?"

Alfi gasped. Shortly after, there was the sound of rushed footsteps, and then the mature voice let out a strangled squeak.

"B-Big sister?!"

"Kyaaa! Betty! You called me Big sister!"

"D-Didn't we discuss this last time? A-And stop it! We are in public!"

"But you're so adorable! I love you so much!"

Heavy footsteps echoed, and then Aoko spoke up. "Alright. That's enough, Alfi."

@superiorSardines: LET US SEE!

@finickyChowder: OH GOD WHY!

@empathicVenison: HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH

@ferventWhiting: I'm there in person and it's beautiful.

@lazyLion: OH MY GOD! ALFI IS SO PRETTY

@resolvedFish: THAT'S QUEEN!?!

@forsakenThrush: SOMEONE RECORD IT! TAKE A PICTURE!

@outlyingLizard: WHY IS EVERYTHING NOT WORKING?!?!?!?!

@giddyTeal: WAIT. BETA NOVA IS JOHN'S DAUGHTER TOO!?!?!

@mellowStork: HOW THE F IS JOHN'S FAMILY SO HOT?!

@crushedCaviar: WHY CAN'T I SAAAAVVVVEEEE THISSSSS?!?!?!?!

@shyMoth: WHAT KIND OF GOD TIER BLACK VOODOO MAGITECH DISRUPTOR FIELD DID TITOR GIVE THE GIRLS HNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!

@JohnSmithMyth: Bad Hana.
