*On your gear this evening: A troubled looking purple haired woman with a tiny elephant in her lap. Both of who are rather wet due to the rain, yet are currently taking shelter under a rock outcropping. Something that is without a doubt not what you would see on Route 29. She politely waves to the little camera on the gear, before speaking up:*

Ano... Excuse me? I don't mean to bother anyone with my first broadcast, yet...

*She pans the camera over a little to the area outside the outcrop to show a few tough looking Graveler, before returning the view to her.*

I think I may have taken a wrong turn somewhere? I'm sure I was heading in the direction on the map, yet while walking through the rain with little Raja I somehow wound up in a bit of a... rocky situation? *She smiles a little at her joke, hoping the humor would make anyone worried less so* I'm fairly certain little Raja would have a good deal of trouble with those large stones if we keep going in this direction... So... I don't suppose anyone could give me directions to Cherrygrove?

*The Phanpy in her lap lets out a loud trumpet at this, already EXTREMELY WORRIED that not even directions will get her there.*

Now now, Raja, that's not necessary-- I'm sure they'll leave us alone if we just stay out of their way-- *Giving the elephant a reassuring pat on the trunk, she then gives the camera a small wave and a smile.* Thank you for your time, everyone~! *Annnnnd click*

Uh...not exactly. But I have gotten to know the rest of your fellow idols here.

Especially Yayoi. We've known each other for over a year now.

My... You've known her that long and you're not a fan?

To be completely honest, I'm from a different world. I know it sounds really strange, but I swear that it's the truth.

My... Even if you're from a different world, a year is still quite a long time. That is more than enough to be both a friend and a fan, Athrun-kun.

[At that, he puts on an apologetic smile.]

You've got a good point. I've just been unfortunate in that I haven't had much chance to see her perform.

But if she ever does a concert -- really, if any of them do -- I've promised to be there. So I guess you can call me a fan-in-waiting or something, huh?

Ehe... I do hope you'll do the same for me, Athrun-kun. Otherwise I might feel left out.

Oh, of course! I'd never leave anyone out.

...Maybe I should hope you all perform as a group, huh?

[Sheepish grin.]

That would be quite fun~! ... Ara, though I must admit I have a bit of an obligation to perform with Iori-chan and Ami-chan before everyone else. We're a unit, after all~

Er...a unit?

Mm, that's right. The three of us together are Ryuuguu Komachi.

...Oh, huh. I didn't know that was something that's done.

Though, er. Iori is here, but the third member isn't. Let's see, according to Makoto...the twins and...Chihaya, was it? They're not here.

Ara ara... You certainly seem familiar with all of us... Are you certain you're not already a fan and just a little shy about it, Athrun-kun?

Er. That's just. I...had Makoto tell me about the idols who hadn't shown up yet. So I'd stop being surprised when Yayoi or someone else would get brought up in conversation.

[Looking ever more sheepish.]

My... asking an idol for insider information? You're definitely already a fan.

*Definitely teasing a little.*

I-it was for practical purposes!

Practical purposes...? Ara ara... That makes it sound so professional.

Uh...well...it was like I said earlier, I wanted to know so I wouldn't keep getting surprised.

My... Is it truly that surprising to you? I'm not sure I understand why it would be...

Well, I didn't know how many idols 765 Pro sponsors or anything about them. And, well...I've made friends with not only Yayoi, but several of the other 765 Pro idols. And...I guess I just like the chance to meet the friends from back home of my friends.

Ara... You've known Yayoi-chan for over a year and you don't know about any of us? You must not talk to her about home very often...

No, I'm afraid not often enough. We usually talk about other subjects -- mainly what you can find here.

[Looking a bit awkward now.]

... well then~

You'll just have to get to know us through first hand experience, won't you?

I will. I prefer it that way.

Do be gentle with us, Athrun-kun. We're all only just starting out.

[Okay, that sounds kinda weird to Athrun, but he manages to hold it together.]

Um. Er...right. First, let's, uh...

...Let's see you safely to Cherrygrove before anything else.
