Chapter 1: I see...

"Hololive is simply a Virtual YouTube agency owned by the Japanese tech entertainment company 'Cover Corporation'. As well as a multi-channel network, Hololive also handles merchandising especially in music production and concert organization." A-Chan explained more about the company, mainly about the main attraction being the 'vtubers'. I heard of those alongside Hololive, "Thanks for the explanation, greatly appreciated" She gave me a thumbs up before looking down at her now-completed work. A thought ran through my mind, then a question. "Does it pay well?" I asked out of curiosity mostly. "Depends on which position you're in. As a staff member, you make about 50 million yen a year, which is $386,000. As an idol, it will be determined on the quality of your stream. Though some of our idols have made over 711 million yen, or $5.5 million. I suggest being a staff member, but it's your choice." It was my choice, whether to be an idol or a staff member. Being a staff member meant loads of work to do, but being an idol seemed more laid back than anything. I've been doing work most of my life, so maybe I should just take this opportunity to relax more. My verdict in hand, I looked at A-Chan and simple said, "I'll be an idol." She sighed in defeat, maybe anticipating a new coworker to help her with work, but that dream died - and so did his. "Alright then. If you want to be an idol, you'll have to go to this website and fill out an application to audition."

I'm on the website now, and some of the requirements are pretty standard. Like 'you must be 18 or older.' But everything else wasn't to be expected by someone such as myself, like 'a proven track record of content distribution' and 'deliver content continuously for at least one year,' but I had that down to a T. The only thing I'd really have to do was an introduction video, basically explaining why I'd like to join and things like that. I guess I can film that on my phone once I get home. Speaking of which, I check the time on it and to my surprise, it showed '17:04', never realized I stayed here for so long. A-Chan looked as if she were getting ready to head out as well, organizing and packing her work utensils away. I get up, leaving my empty tea cups on the table. We looked at each other for a second before she spoke. "Call this number if you need anything relating to the auditions, any questions or anything", she told me. Before she left, she reached into her jeans and pulled out a black card. One side showed the logo, along with 3 triangles, dark & light blue along with a white in the center. I nodded in acceptance as she walked out of the Cafe. Flipping the cars, there was a phone number. Putting that in my own pocket, I walked out of the Cafe. A deep breath, and I find myself walking back to the hotel.

I stepped in and didn't waste any time getting to an elevator, though I did wave 'hello' to the receptionist from earlier. First thing I did yet again was get ready for another shower, I should consider taking it easy.

Out of the closet and into a hoodie and another skirt, I flop onto my bed. It's comfortable and I like it, it's maroon too so that's a bonus. I didn't have much stream equipment, now that I thought of it but I can always buy some stuff tomorrow. Guess I'll end up doing that. For now, I need to get the introduction video out of the way. Another look through the website to get everything down, again. It says that I didn't need a 'character model' which is good, because I don't have one. But that's all I really need for validation. So with that out the way, I began. Turning the microphone I had stuffed into one of my cases on, and setting it up to my liking. Gonna be using my phone for this just for the rest of the day. I took a breath of confidence, since I wasn't much of a talker even though I spike quite a bit earlier, but I was curious, okay. Tapping the 'record button', it began. It went something like this...
