>>5930787With their shouting far away, Emily speaks up.
“You’re breaking into jail?” Emily had no clue. You feel like you have to justify yourself, but… “Be careful, okay?” She holds your arm tightly.
“I will be. And I’m sorry about that.” You didn’t want to derail the date like that.
“What are you apologizing for? We both agreed to approach them, didn’t we?” Emily doesn’t want you to worry more than needed. “Though, I don’t want those two around the office. Can you do that for me?”
“Sure! The Prison thing and the Agency are two completely different things. And I only invited Mark over.” You wonder why she’s assuming Cowsly will join too. “And speaking of the agency! Emily, I present you C—”
The moment you go through the VIP gate (After showing you special digital tickets to a beefy security man), you’re forcefully dragged by the human tempest into the building! It’s Clutz! You’re glad she read your message! She instantly replied, but you didn’t check what she said exactly. The Evil Idol looks like she has a lot in her mind.
“Now we can actually talk about what in the world happened!” Vortexia brought you two to her private locker room. “Let’s start by… huh… <span class="mu-i">Who is this?</span>” Vortexia just noticed Emily, she isn’t beating the clumsy allegations like this…
“She’s my date. Isn’t she pretty?” You present Emily to the newbie.
“You’re… on a date?” Vortexia is perplexed by this. “Another possible fan who can pledge their devotion for me, I suppose. P-Please, keep said devotion in check...”
“Hello, my name is Emily. It’s nice to meet you.” Emily waves.
“Hello, there. Allow me to introduce myself, I’m the idol who is going to take this industry by storm, the name is—”
“We call her Clutz. Isn’t she cool?” You interrupt Vortexia before she can do her whole spiel.
“Clumsy like a storm, I see.” Emily takes notes. “I like her vibe, but Clutz is a name more fitting for a clown, isn’t it?”
“Emily here is going to work as our secretary.” You introduce properly.
“Glad to make your acquaintance.” Emily nods again.
“L-Likewise…” Clutz doesn’t know why she bothers. “Please, don’t call me a clown… My actual stage name is Vortexia, and—”
“Isn’t she cool? Here, I have her Sparks of Luck card, which includes her backstory.” You show your collection to Emily.
“Let me see...” Emily reads the back of the card. That’s going to keep her busy for a bit.
“Listen here, Mr. Overzealous fan manager!” Vortexia wants your full attention. “I haven’t accepted you as my manager, and your services are redundant. If you want to profit from my efforts, so be it, but I have handled my affairs on my own without anyone’s help from the very beginning. All I needed was Zhi’s financial backing to succeed. So stay out of my lane and be a fan!”
