<span class="mu-b">[11:08] @EmikoDesuu55: Heyyy, Kaiba-chan</span>
<span class="mu-b">[11:08] @EmikoDesuu55: I just got off the phone with my part-time job and I should be good to meet up this Saturday at Sarutahiko Café. </span>
<span class="mu-b">[11:10] @EmikoDesuu55: knowing you you’re probably nervous and stuff, but I just wanna help you make a better show okay? the show might fall apart at this rate, all my friends say so. Like I said those marketing people are just hiding the truth from you, they don’t want you to know how bad things are. Sharing our suggestions with them won’t help, but don’t worry -- we’ll fix it together~~ (ㅅ´ ˘ `) wear something nice (no sweaters)</span>

Nagata blinks a few times as she tries to process all this.
What has Kaiba-san gotten herself into? Is the live vlog really doing that bad?
No, that can’t be.
The numbers for the live vlog are accessible to both Nagata and Matsui and if anything things have been looking great lately.
Remembering that Kaiba could arrive at any moment, Nagata hastily marks the most recent three messages as unread before taking a seat at the other side of the office where a lonely chair stands against the far wall.
Her mind buzzing with questions, Nagata Miho can do nothing but wait until Kaiba returns.
What if Nagata had never seen this chat? What would’ve happened?
Should she pretend she never saw the chat in the first place or step in?
Roughly ten minutes later, Kaiba Aoi arrives.
Kaiba stops dead in her tracks, her eyes widening in surprise as she sees Nagata there.
Her sentiment is shared by Nagata. She had heard that Kaiba-san had been working on her appearance in her own time, but this is just an entirely new look.
Kaiba-san has done away with her trademark sweater and instead opted for a sort-of frilly blouse so tight you can practically hear the buttons trying to unionize over the terrible working conditions.
Her previously straight hair received a visit from a curling iron and her now wavy hair rests delicately over her shoulders.
Honestly, with the way Kaiba has been dressing it’s easy to forget she’s just an eighteen-year-old girl, barely out of high school.
For some reason her demeanour and attire gave off the impression as somebody in their middle twenties at the earliest.
Then again, that was the exact image marketing had been going for… so --- props to marketing and the stylists.
