Ken left on short notice after hearing the game was still on. "I'll stay home to take care of Emi," Amari smiled, not wanting to get caught up in another crowd just yet.
When Emi's show finished, she began to fuss. "Mina, can you put on Ken's game?" Amari asked. She and Emi settled in to watch, gossiping about Ken's game. Emi chipped in with her own sounds, and Amari laughed and agreed, cheering for him from home.
Soon, Emi fell asleep. Mina gently pulled a blanket over her, though it was small in comparison to Emi's size; it was the thought that counted. Amari sat on the stairs, keeping a watchful eye over her.
Ken's behavior during the game caused Amari to cringe. Browsing through social media, she saw trash talk comments. "Mira, block and delete those trolls," she said. One comment made her laugh slightly. "He has a nice ass," she chuckled. "It feels as nice as it looks," Amari chimed in.
Scrolling further, she came across a post from Ami commenting on her save the night before. Following the tag, she saw many posts about her. "Famous," she remembered Hunter saying. She saw interviews with people who had been there, crediting her for saving the day.
Another video showed Ren on camera with Katsuo. "You should have seen her," he said. More interviews followed, with people she had never seen before sharing their stories. "She was Ultra-mazing!" yelled an excited kid.
"There you have it, the selfless heroic act of Amari Akashe, who inspired many to be ultra," a reporter concluded.
Amari eyes lingered on a comment from Ami: "How about an interview?"
"An interview, huh?" she thought. "I can do you one better."
"Mira, please write down what I say," she instructed.
Inspired, Amari quickly took a picture of her wrist, still wearing the glow stick from the previous night. Typing quickly, she used the hashtags "Ultra" and "Ultra-mazing." In her caption, she wrote, "Ultraman saved another day, and Ultraforce helped save the people. Starting a movement with #Ultra. Inspiring people to do good things, no matter how small or big. Share what #Ultramazing thing you did."
She wanted to promote the idea that Ultraforce was always active, even when Ultraman wasn't around. She realized one way to throw the KDF out of commission and promote Ultraman's vigilantism was to convince people they could trust Ultraman and Ultraforce.
"Ultraman... we also need to work on his fighting skills," she hummed. "Please note that down too, Mira."
The night went on as they planned the future for Ultraforce and the Ultra movement. Ami receiving a message "I'd love to"
Emi shifted slightly, causing Amari to quiet down. "Baby..." she whispered. "Mira, please research activities to do with babies or toddlers."
Her list grew larger, including tasks like going to the KDF office tomorrow to find her mother's research on Kaiju, an interview with Ami, and more. Emi let out a yawn and stuck out her tongue, blinking awake.
"Hello, Emi," Amari smiled. "We're gonna try this parenting thing and ultra stuff," she said, speaking more to herself.
Ken returned to the sight of Amari passionately reading a children's book to Emi, using her hands to animate the story.
After a tough game, Ken finally made it home. "Emi, mummy's home," Amari teased. Emi cooed at the sight of him.
Ken took a sip from his self-branded can and noticed some papers scattered in a spot. "You've been busy," he noted. "Any hints on where Kaiju Island is?"
"No, but I do know Emi has something to show you," Amari said excitedly.
"Min, cue the music!" Amari called out. Soon, Emi's song played, and she began jumping about as Amari encouraged her, taking pictures of the moment.
Despite how bad the game had been, Ken couldn't keep his mood soured. The lights flashed as Emi danced, her happy face.
Amari tugged at his hand. "Come on, it's supposed to be a celebration party for your game." Ken chuckled and followed her. "we barely won"
"It's still worth celebrating" Amari, shrugged, her smile was too much to resist. The blissful, joy-filled moment shifted his frown into a smile as he joined in.
Though the moment was slightly ruined by the baby Kaiju's new mess, Ken couldn't help but feel grateful for the joy his family brought him.
"oh... Emi"
She covered her nose and patted his shoulder in encouragement. "You got this, Kenji!" she cheered, before rushing out of the room.
