The Introvert

Ch.6

(Y/n): "I'm glad that I finally got to take a shower and put on a fresh pair of clothes. Seriously why did I have to get picked to help set up a place that I don't even work at? She should have just had her worker finish all the work before punishing them. What's on tv right now?"

Robot: Hello I know you must be wondering where the usual anchorman is. Well, he decided to take some time off. Your news station was kind enough to hire my intern and me since the convention is coming to town. Yes, I'm the Robot that reports about the people who will be attending call me False. Now I'll let my intern introduce himself.

Human?: I'm the unpaid intern android working for that blockhead. Call me EyeD.

False: Now that he introduced himself let me start this newscast. In two more days marks the first day of the convention. Fans and entertainers alike have started to prepare for the voyage to arrive here. The local airport is trying to get ready for the massive flood. I expect that no amount of preparation will help in the matter though. Now to you EyeD.

EyeD: I am here currently standing in the KFP that just opened in town. A small line was formed for those applying for the jobs available. Ah, miss Takanashi over here!

Kiara: Yes.

EyeD: I'm EyeD who's currently working for the local news station. I have a few questions to ask you. Is it alright to ask?

Kiara: As long as we're not talking about the usual room I'll answer.

EyeD: We already know not to discuss it. First question why did you decide to open a location here?

Kiara: The convention is taking place here it's a great opportunity to make some money while also giving people the taste that only KFP can provide.

EyeD: Second question. How has your experience in this town been so far?

Kiara: That's an easy one to answer. The person I met was kind and assisted me in moving stuff around. If every local is like that it's going to be an amazing time.

EyeD: Third...

Just a heads up False and EyeD are actual vtubers. I think it's one person with two avatars but I'm not sure. They host a news channel called Things Vtubers Say. So if you want to be informed about vtuber stuff that's the place to go.

Not sponsored by the way just enjoy their work.

(Y/n) turned off the tv and anxiety took over. It clicked in his mind that the dreaded day was much closer than he realized. The thought of being in a crowded building with a bunch of strangers keeps taking control of his mind. Trying to not think about it only made the problem worse. Having to attend was inevitable and he knew it.

(Y/n): "Goddamit! Why the hell did luck have to shine of me for such a stupid situation. I would have taken a five or six-star character from a gacha game over the promotion. It's stressing me out. I checked the mirror earlier and I had some white hair from all of the stress. Everyone should ignore me though right? Why talk to a local DJ when you can talk to your favorite shark or dragon girl. Yeah, just think like that (Y/n) and it will be over before you know it."

(Y/n): "Now what can I do now. I slept a majority of the day so I'm not tired. The idea of going out to town again doesn't seem that enjoyable to me since that's what I did and got me into that situation. Playing video games is a good option but I don't feel like playing any of the ones I own. Apex is tiring when you play against sweaty gamers, Minecraft I'm already a god in that game since I made a kingdom of diamonds in the sky but it's lonely since on a solo server. You know what why not just check Twitter to see some of the stupid things people tweet."

He pulls out his phone and decided to check his notifications. It was just a bunch of stuff that he's no longer interested in until he sees someone mentioned him.

(Y/n): "Oh crap, looks like someone wants to cancel me on Twitter. I don't care much since I haven't been active here for months. Plus two followers which I'm certain are my parents isn't much of a loss. Now let me see who the heck talked about me.

Just a heads up I'm too lazy to make Twitter account names accurate. Especially when it has a different language so I just put it however I wanted.

Kureiji Ollie🧟 Hololive ID Gen 2: I just played a game with Nijisanji's Selen and a guy named TheDireDon. It was one of the most fun games I've ever played. TDD wasn't confident about his playstyle but Selen and I made him into a true Apex player in the end. If your reading dm me to play together again.

(Y/n): " Shit! I knew something was different about my teammates but I didn't expect them to be from talent agencies. Damn it! Why am I suddenly getting all of this attention? I just want some close friends not to become internet famous. It's like the bare minimum I ask gets blown out of proportion."

Selen Tatsuki🏆 Nijisanji EN: Played a game with TheDireDon and died in a game to TheDireDon. The guy has the potential to become a predator. Can't say the same about Ollie, Elira, and Finana.

(Y/n): "So she complemented me and dissed other people. Well, the important part is that I wasn't the one being dissed so that's a win in my book. Still getting all this attention wouldn't bother me as much if there wasn't a convention coming to town. I'm just hoping that they weren't streaming otherwise perceptive fans could recognize my voice and I don't want to deal with any jealous people. It's scary how far people will go just because of jealousy and I don't want to be on the receiving end. They always end up like those crime shows where someone does."

(Y/n): "Now let me see where exactly in town the convention is going to be."

He now looks through and finds the address for the convention.

(Y/n): "Atlas Way. That's on the outskirts of town. No way I'm going to walk over there it takes about an hour on foot and none of the buses go that way. Looks like I'm forced to ride my motorcycle. I don't even remember how to ride it since the last time I did it was entering the town. I'll have to try and relearn otherwise I'm going to be getting there all tired and sweaty and there's no way I want to go and look all messy in front of everyone attending. The VIPs will be all disgusted and the fans will just tell me off for disgusting their idols."

(Y/n): It's too dark to practice today but I should still see if it turns on. Hopefully, it does otherwise I'll need to talk with the mechanic about what could be wrong."

(Y/n) walks outside and his lights turn on. The front part of the house now is illuminated and there leaning against a tree is the bike.

(Y/n): "It looks worse than I thought. I'll need to wash and shine it up before I take it to the convention. Nobody wants to see a dirty-ass motorcycle pull up in such an important event. Plus I'm sure that my boss would be disappointed as well. Probably say something like it damages what little reputation the station has and fire me on the spot. I'd prefer to stay on his good side and not worry about losing my only source of income. Everything is cheap here but you still need money to buy stuff."
