[For tonight's entertainment Maoh will be attempting to use Kanji's gear as a surf board! He toddles his way on over to the pool but before he's able to use the device as a floaty he slips on a tiny puddle and falls in instead. Unfortunately, as the gear is on the ground all the viewers can see is the sky above. Though-- if you listen carefully you can hear the Pichu's small, yet frantic splashing. However, as time goes on the splashing noises start to decrease.

A couple of minutes pass as a dark blur zooms by the gear and a big splash is heard a few seconds after. Up pops on the screen is a very wet, very out of breath, very disgruntled looking Kanji.]

D-Dammit Maoh. I--I told you to stay away from the pool.

[The small Pichu he has in his lap looks a bit lifeless. Though it may look bleak, Maoh is breathing. He pushes his damp bangs out of his face.]

S-Shit... I hope it's... not to late. I don't... I don't even know what to do. [by this point it looks like he's going to have a panic attack.] Those.... those c-centers would help, right? Shit why did this have to happen!?

... A relative entered me into this contest; I passed the first round without even knowing.

[ a pause. ]

I... didn't actually want to be an idol.

So... they didn't really ask you if you wanted to do this or not? Man, what a great relative.

Mm, they meant well. And it was my choice whether to accept their offer or not.

What made you decide to be an Idol? To... yanno accept the offer.

... [ and now Rise looks down at her lap. ]

It's stupid now, but back then, I thought... maybe if I appeared on TV, I'd be able to make friends.

[he quirks his brow.] That ain't stupid. It's a legit reason, at least.

How's it legit? When I debuted, people might've started talking to me, but it wasn't me they wanted to be friends with.

I meant that it was better than wanting to be famous, or wanting to get rich.

I'm not that full of myself, am I?

No you aren't. You're different than those bimbos who are probably in it for the fame or some shit like that. Having friends is way better then being rich or famous anyways. At least you're truly happy with yourself. And can just-- I dunno, act like your plain goofy self around us.

H-hey, who are you calling goofy? I'm totally mature!

[he lightly shoves her] Oh sure, real mature. Well I've asked two. It's your turn to ask some.

[ and she lightly shoves back with a giggle; clearly, she isn't offended. ]

Hmm... how long've you been making plushies? I mean, you had to start somewhere.

I've been sewing since.... I could remember I guess. I guess I picked it up in Elementary school.

Whoa, that early?? Did you learn from your mom?

Yeah. From my ma and dad. Back when... yanno.

... Yeah. So your dad was good at it, too.

From what I remember yeah, he helped ma with the store. Though he was more into cloths and shit.

... How old were you when he...?

I-- I dunno. I can't remember.

It must've been really young, then...

[he nods.]

So... uhh... what's the sweetest thing about being an idol? There's gotta be some perks right? What did you like doin' the most?

Getting to try out all the first-class restaurants was fun... oh, but I like the fan-mail, too! And you get some really cute stuff to wear when you're an idol.

[he leans in closer.] Wait-- you got to eat in all the fancy ass restaurants? What was that like!? Is the food as good as they say it is? Oh-- oh yeah fan-mail. Were there any ones in particular that you liked to answer/read?

Most of it is, though some of it's totally overrated. And my favorite place is still Hagakure in Tatsumi Port Island, even if I didn't get to eat there all that much!

[ she smiles a little sheepishly. ] Actually, yeah. There was a girl who wrote me all the time, who also used to get bullied. She said that Risette made her want to keep trying, and she's doing much better these days.
