Last time Nolan met the last three members of VShojo and learned more about the world of supernaturals! Although the city can only stay peaceful for so long, the Trials of Diablo will rumble through the city once again.

Nolan had to admit that things had been interesting past few days since he met Hime, Veibae, and Nyanners. He had been spending a lot of time at the VShojo agency when he wasn't busy at the warehouse fixing up cars. Although a part of Nolan felt like things were to peaceful, ironic considering who he was hanging out with as of late. Nolan currently found himself sitting in the agency break room as he was tinkering with Froot's microphone. The Lich girl was having issues with the device and Nolan offered to repair the problematic device for her.
             Nolan put all the pieces of the microphone back together before plugging it in. "Test, test." Nolan said into the microphone as it amplified his voice. Nolan unplugged the mic before setting it back on the table as the door to the break room opened. Nolan looked to see Silvervale enter the break room. "How did the stream go?" Nolan asked as Silvervale jumped slightly at Nolan's voice before turning and smiling at him. "Oh Nolan! I didn't know you were in here." Silvervale said as she was not expecting to see him there. "Yeah well this place has kind of become a new hangout for me." Nolan said as he moved the microphone over before sitting down.
                Silvervale noticed the microphone on the table as she looked at Nolan in confusion. "Why do you have Froot's microphone?" Silvervale asked as she was surprised to see one of her fellow VShojo member's mic in the break room. "Oh, Froot mentioned her microphone had been acting up. Since she had a collab stream with Zen today and borrowed one of her spares, I decided to fix hers." Nolan said as he gently moved the microphone out of the way. "Awwww! That's so sweet of you!" Silvervale said before walking over to Nolan and hugging him.
Nolan could feel his face heating up as he felt something rather soft pressing up against his body. "Relax, it's just a friendly hug." Nolan thought to himself as he tried to remain calm despite the situation he found himself in. "Well it's nothing, better then just sitting here waiting for you guys to finish streaming." Nolan said before Silvervale broke the hug. "It's still nice of you, we don't really have anyone to help out with stuff like that." Silvervale said as she gave Nolan an appreciative smile. Nolan simply shrugged as he didn't see it as a big deal, just common courtesy.
              The door to the break room opened once again as Froot and Zentreya entered the room. "That was a fun stream! Thanks again for letting me use one of your spare microphones Zen." Froot said as she gave her girlfriend a small smile. "It was nothing." Zen said as she planted a quick kiss on Froot's forehead. "Well I think I fixed your mic problem." Nolan said as he handed Froot her now repaired microphone. "You fixed it for me? Oh your so sweet!" Froot said as she pulled Nolan into a tight hug that he can't escape from.
Nolan had given up trying to resist Froot at this point, it was to much effort for a pointless endeavor. "It's nothing Froot, really I had nothing better to do." Nolan said as he didn't think it was that big of a deal. They were interrupted by a notification going off on Nolan's phone. Nolan and Froot broke the hug before Nolan checked his phone to see that another Trial was happening tonight. "Well looks like it's race night, guess I'll be sleeping in tomorrow." Nolan said as he was getting ready to head out and prepare for the Trial that was happening tonight.
Nolan was stopped by Froot grabbing him by the wrist. "Could you not go to that race Nolan? Those races are dangerous from what Melody told us!" Froot said as she was obviously worried about his safety. "Froot, I know your worried, but I'll be fine! After all I've done this plenty of times." Nolan said as he tried to put her mind at ease. Before Froot could make another argument, but was stopped by Zentreya's hand on her shoulder. "Froot, it's not our place to stop him." Zentreya said as she tried to help Froot calm down from the panic she was experiencing.
Nolan gave Zentreya an appreciative smile, but noticed that she was giving him a rather stern look. "Now just because we can't stop you doesn't mean your allowed to go out and get yourself killed in that race." Zentreya said in a stern tone as Nolan flinched slightly. "Noted, I'll see you guys later." Nolan said as he exited the break room and passed Melody, who entered the room after him. "Soooo....anybody wanna spy on him during his race?" Melody asked as he readied one of her flying cameras. The A.I. girl received a chorus of yeses as she pulled out her laptop and activated her camera.
