Corporate Prince

Special Episode

Ana and Seto stand in an empty white room. Ana turns to the fourth wall and smiles. "Wait for it."

A loud popping sound rings out and a giant rip in the space time continuum occurs. A massive black portal appears and a slightly chubby girl with short brown spiky hair and green eyes step out.

"Haha! I did it. I broke the fabric of space and time–"

Seto interrupts. "No one gives a shit. Just get on with it."

The girl pouts but turns to the fourth wall and waves. "Hi readers, I'm Tay the author of Corporate Prince. I have broken reality and lots of personal rules to insert myself into–"

Seto snaps. "Get on with it. No one cares. They're already pissed you didn't upload a real episode today."

Tay deflates. "Lately I realized that I haven't had a real break in a while. I work fulltime, write novels, and try to upload this weekly while also pushing merchandise for my new book. It's like I'm working three jobs. I'm burnt out. See?"

Tay holds up her arms. A strange black and purple smoke emits from her skin. Ana and Seto take a step away looking concerned.

"It's not contagious! Anyway, I feel bad but I'm going to take a two-week break so I can upkeep my mental and physical health. But I didn't want to go on another hiatus without warning. So, I decided to do something that might be fun." And way easier on me hehe.

Seto glares at her. "They can see your thoughts here. You do realize that, right?"

Oh crap! I forgot. Tay let's out an awkward laugh then clears her throat. "I decided it might be fun to do a Q & A. In the comments you can ask me–"

"They really don't give a shit about you." Seto sighs and Ana turns away avoiding eye contact.

Tay sniffs and holds back tears. "As I was saying, you can ask me or any of the characters questions. Especially Seto, ask him lots of awkward questions."

Seto looks pissed, but Ana claps her hands excitedly her eyes lighting up.

Ana grins at Seto then comments. "Yes, please ask him awkward questions."

Seto's eyes widen in concerned before he frowns in annoyance.

Tay waves toward the fourth wall drawing the reader's attention. "Also, this is a room of infinite possibilities. So, if you want to see what the character's reactions are to something like.... Seto's hair turning green like in season zero of Yu-gi-oh, then it can be done."

Seto glares at Tay. "Don't even think about it."

Tay looks away from him and refuses to make eye contact. "Well, that's all I really have to say. If you're interested, you can post your questions or requests in the comments. Feel free to ask multiple questions. I or my characters will do their best to answer. If it's a spoiler question or something super personal though I can't answer it. Thanks for being understanding."

"They aren't being understanding. They're probably pissed at you for this stupid episode and–"

Ana reaches up and grabs Seto's ear to get him to shut up. Ana turns to the readers and bows while still holding Seto's ear. She says politely, "Until next time."
