"Isn't it super cute?"

Son Na-rim

"Remember when Laura said she got sunglasses from you during a casual broadcast?"

"How did that happen? Tell me the story!"

Son Na-rim

"Laura's silhouette MV just hit 100,000 views!"

It was like this…

'...I understand, though.'

People want to share their hobbies with someone else.

They want to talk about the things they like, build connections, and either give or receive help with their hobbies. That's why community sites are so active, right?

On the other hand, solitary hobbies can be quite lonely.

That’s why Na-rim… kept talking about Laura every day.

'But, why does this person like Laura so much...?'

Na-rim had shown signs of liking Laura for a while. But why suddenly was she openly fan-girling over her…?

Sora didn't really understand, but she went along with it.

Although she had started using informal speech, Na-rim was a senior. Even though their companies were different, Na-rim had been active for three years, whereas Sora had only been around for about six months.

With such a massive experience gap, it would be ridiculous to take offense with Na-rim. Plus, Sora actually enjoyed talking about Laura with her.

But... even though it was the New Year holiday, calling every day was a bit much.

"When are you going to stop calling...?"

Eventually, Sora couldn't hold back and said it.

[Ah, I see, evening calls are a bit troublesome... I'll call during the day next time…]

"I’m asking you to take it easy..."

[Eh... that’s impossible… Was I that annoying?!]

"..."

Sora almost said, "Yeah, you’re a bit annoying."

But she held back.

"I'm at my parents' house right now, and this weekend, I have a match with Cerberus. So, I can't be on the phone every day."

[Got it... I won’t call tomorrow, I’ll call the day after…]

"Is there no option where you don’t call...?"

[Well... I don’t have anyone else to talk to about this... I just got excited, and I ended up calling too much.]

Na-rim said that.

It was clear... this person wasn’t the type to hang out with others.

Among the people close to Na-rim, maybe four had connections with Laura—Shina, Noa, Chang-young, and Jeong-seok. The four she met in Acer-Sal.

Among these, Chang-young and Jeong-seok didn’t have much interaction with Laura.

And Noa didn’t either, right? Elenoa didn’t seem to have much of a connection to Laura either.

That left Shina, but she had shown antagonism toward Laura.

So, looking at it like this, it was clear that Na-rim didn't really have anyone to hang out with.

[Sora, if you're struggling, should I try calling Rinko-senpai...?]

"You really can't let go... How about you just tell Laura directly?"

[What?! That would be embarrassing!]

Na-rim gasped in surprise.

...Since when did this person know embarrassment?

[Sora, I just want Laura to be happy as a fan.]

"So?"

[So, for example, if Laura suddenly married Aina-Tsu, I would support her.]

Why did Aina-Tsu's name come up?

Sora was taken aback.

[If Laura made that choice to make herself happy, I would respect it. Whether it’s Aina-Tsu, Shina, or anyone else, I’d respect them all.]

"What are you even trying to say?"

[I’m fine just watching from the side. On the other hand, I don’t want to interfere with my favorite! It’s clear that me getting too involved would only have a bad influence on Laura!]

Na-rim shouted like that.

At least she was aware that she was getting too invested.

Sora realized that.

"Fine. Make sure you come tomorrow."

[Huh? Come out?]

"If you don’t come, I won’t take your calls again."

Sora said it like that.

There are two common types of fans when it comes to handling their favorite:

One wants to get as close as possible, while the other just wants to watch from a distance.

The first type is familiar to most otaku. Wanting to date their favorite, marry them, or something similar. It’s especially common in mobile collection RPG communities.

And the second type might surprise some people. It's the type who thinks, “Shouldn't men stay out of yuri relationships?”

They want to see the relationship between their favorite and other characters, and they want to experience the unique world their favorite character has. They don’t want to mess with that world.

Son Na-rim was clearly the latter type.

"Hmm, so you’re saying that Na-rim came over because she was curious about our house?"

"Ah, well, yeah…"

"You’ve gotten pretty close with her. Judging by how you’re speaking informally."

"Yeah, that’s because... we've been talking a lot lately because of the ‘song relay project.’ That’s how we got closer."

"I see."

Sora nodded in response.

She decided not to explain the truth of the situation.

How would she say it? That Na-rim was a deep, obsessive fan of Laura?

Na-rim didn’t seem like she wanted to get caught, so Sora just avoided mentioning it.

'...Though Laura will probably figure it out soon enough.'

Laura was sharp.

She probably already knew Sora was telling a small lie, and that Na-rim was hiding something.

But Laura was just sipping her tea, smiling, probably pretending not to notice.

She was likely waiting to see how things would play out.

"Laura, aren't you just putting off housework? I heard Rion went home."

"Right."

"Then you’ll take care of it for a while, right? I’ve been getting overwhelmed lately."

And she would probably continue to feel that way. With the tournament practice and planning, Sora was really busy.

But since Na-rim’s situation seemed a bit frustrating, Sora ended up taking her to Laura’s house.

Son Na-rim was harmless.

Sora realized that.

As mentioned before, there are two types of fans when it comes to handling their favorite.

Na-rim had no desire to get closer to Laura romantically.

She just wanted to learn more about Laura, to delve into her.

...It felt a little uncomfortable, but at least Na-rim wouldn’t do anything weird to Laura.

'Even if Laura gets a lover, Na-rim would probably support her.'

There are fans who tear up their albums when idols get boyfriends, but at least Na-rim wouldn’t be that way. She would probably buy more goods as a congratulatory gift.

Thinking like that, Sora felt at ease and left.

Na-rim was left alone in Laura’s house.

'...Wait a second... How did I end up alone with Laura?'

Na-rim realized a beat too late that Sora had left.

At first, she was excited about being at Laura’s house, but when the situation sank in, she started to get nervous.

'What should I do... I'm suddenly nervous…'

Even though this wasn’t the first time she’d been alone with Laura.

Her breathing became faster.

They’d been alone during games before, even in the escape room at first, and many times in Dungeon Seeker...

...But, now that she thought about it, all of that was online?

Being alone in person... wait, is this the first time?

At Rinko’s house, Rinko had been there, and during dance lessons, Sora was always with her, or there was a dance trainer.

Right, this was the first time being alone in person!

No wonder she was nervous!

...But Na-rim tried to laugh it off, her heart racing.

'I have to go home!'

She thought to herself.

"Na-rim, bring the tea."

Just as Na-rim was about to get up from her seat, Laura spoke.

"Y-Yes?! Tea...?"

"It’s in the cabinet. Also, there are scones, so bring a few."

"Ah..."

Na-rim paused for a moment.

Follow current novels on freewebnσvel.cѳm.

Most fans never get a chance to visit Laura’s house.

The only reason Na-rim was here was because she and Laura were both VTubers. Since they worked in the same industry, Sora had invited her.

But aside from the fact that Na-rim was a senior, she was being treated more special than other fans.

It felt... a little unfair.

Did she even deserve this?

It felt uncomfortable, using her senior status like this, but she knew better than to turn it down.

"Ah, okay! I understand!"

Although uncomfortable, Na-rim couldn’t refuse her favorite!

She had to do it! Why? Because if her favorite ended up hating her, she would be miserable!

That’s why Na-rim got the tea from the cabinet, trying her best.

This was her first time making tea, and the different kitchen setup had her stumbling a bit.

But she managed to bring it out.

"Pretty average."

Laura took a sip of her tea and commented.

"Ah, I-I'm sorry..."

"Practice more and bring it to me tomorrow."

"Tomorrow...?"

Na-rim blinked in surprise.

Tomorrow…?

Was Laura asking her to stay again…?

"Do you prefer pasta or risotto?"

"Uh, maybe pasta..."

"Really?"

".....Huh?"

Did she just ask what to have for dinner?

Na-rim froze in shock.
