Aoko Ryuusei – [Just Chatting] Asa doko? Asa koko. (Part I)

A change in the thumbnail. Before it was a plain black screen, but now there was an actual image.

A simple bedroom with an open window. Faint rays of light drifting in through that gap. And sitting on a gaming chair, legs crossed, smug, and a hand half-raised in greeting, was Aoko.

It was probably supposed to be condescending. But that was kind of hard considering her current appearance. Tight black leggings with sleek gray boots, a white dress shirt with the top few buttons undone, barely covered up by a black coat. Long blue hair that was slightly curled and messy, like she just rolled out of bed...

[saunaiguana - @Hana Homura Ch. Just ignore us.]

[Ki-Sama1 - @Hana Homura Ch. Er. We're not always like this...?]

[Play: One Day Soon - Smith The Mister (No Copyright Music)]

The thumbnail vanished, leaving just a black screen. At the same time, music started playing. A slow and chill beat, with soft drums, a synth, and a guitar playing a repeated melody. Something that gave off cool summer vibes.

[muddymule - It's starting!]

[kinkylamb - Are we finally gonna get stepped on in 3D?!]

[jumboshrimp - *nosebleed*]

[perfectdog - *Clippers! Get ready!*]

"Morning, you bastards." A cool and smooth female voice echoed. Aoko's. "No, I should call you guys perverts, right? What the hell am I looking at?"

A soft 'click' echoed, and then the black screen vanished. A white flash, like lights suddenly turning on in the middle of the night. And with that, Aoko emerged in the middle of the screen. Like the thumbnail, she was sitting on the chair with her legs crossed. Her outfit and appearance was the same, but instead of that smug look, she was pissed off.

Aoko's icy blue eyes narrowed and she flung her hand to the side. "What is this!?"

Immediately, a floating chatbox popped into existence. And, as if to catch them in 4K, Aoko tossed it at the screen.

A loud *crack.* Bits of glass fell to the ground, and the live chat was plastered on the screen, showing each message in hi-res.

[Steponmeplssenpai - You read my name. Do it.]

[BalisticPenguins - OwO Pwease Stwep mown mwe moar UwU]

[Alfi's_Footstool - I wouldn't mind getting stepped on by Aoko either.]

[prettyprincess - *Scold me more, Mommy.*]

"This is harrassment! Harrassment! I should report all of you to the cops!"

Aoko let out an exasperated sigh and then pulled the chat back before tossing it off to the side.

The box bounced around for a bit before sticking on the left side of the screen, leaving Aoko sitting in her chair on the right. She glanced over at the flickering chatbox and let out another deep sigh.

[StepOnMeQueen: 100 USD - *Bail money.*]

[StraightGarbage: 100 CAD - *I love handcuffs!*]

[killerwhale: 10K yen - Jail won't stop us]

[golden orca: 10K yen - Yes! Scold us more!]

"Argh! I freaking knew it." Aoko shook her head and said, "You guys are always like this. And stop wasting your money like that! Dumbass!"

[Anumi - So you KNEW we'd do this.]

[happysquid - Aoko confirmed M.]

[nightrat - Ooh, Queen likes it both ways, huh?]

[woolyraptor - Niiiice.]

"Oi!" Aoko snapped and said, "You know what I meant!"

[loyalrabbit - lol]

[grassypig - www]

[redtrainer - *Oh no! Aoko-chan's using dragon rage!*]

[monstermaster - *Quick! Someone use an ice move to calm her down!*]

Aoko rolled her eyes and then leaned back in her chair. She crossed her arms and said, "Whatever. You bastards- Ah, I mean Ki-Sama aren't going to listen to a word I say anyway."

[Ki-sama1 - What do you mean?]

[FilthyDegenerate - Hey! We listen!]

[looddude - *Sorry, your voice was too sexy that I forgot what you said.*]

[niceguy - *I mean, considering our fan name is literally 'bastard...'*]

"Anyway." Aoko snapped her fingers.

A floating box appeared next to the chat, with a few bulleted items.

Why are you all perverts?

Something big is coming at the end of the month

Roasting your cringey Supers

"This is what we're talking about today." Aoko tucked a strand of her blue hair behind her ear and said, "Since last time was complete trash, I thought I'd put something up so you guys at least stay kind of on track."

[redeel - Wow! Queen actually has a plan for once!]

[gorgeouspanda - Did Alfi straighten her out?]

[willowyhorse - *Admit it, Hana gave you tips.*]

[roughcamel - *Well, I guess an adult entertainer is an idol too...*]

"Oi!" Aoko jumped out of her chair and said, "I'm only scatterbrained because you guys made me this way!" She crossed her arms and then looked to the side. "Tch. I was going to apologize for being late, but if you bastards are like that..."

[StepOnMeQueen: 100 USD - *Sorry. I'll take responsibility.*]

[StraightGarbage: 100 CAD - *Right. I'm a bastard, so let me make it up with this.*]

[killerwhale: 10K yen - Should I get a ring?]

[golden orca: 10K yen - It's fine. We like the neglect play.]

Aoko glanced at the chat and then rolled her eyes. "You four goons are gonna be the death of me... How the hell are you even sending so much anyway? Doesn't UTube cap you?"

[royalturtle - You underestimate the power of cultured gentlemen, Queen.]

[smuggoose - You rich bastards...! Keep it up!]

[icyfox - lol]

[sappysquid - *I forgot how fun Aoko's streams are.*]

"Tch." Aoko clicked her tongue and said, "Since you guys are like this already... Let's get on with it." She sat back down in her chair and then placed her arms the armrests. Like a proper yakuza boss or a king. "Real talk now. I don't want anymore of that clowning around. Are you guys messed up in the head? I'm used to bastards acting like a pervert around me, but this has been going on for the past few streams... You guys alright?"

[confusedlion - ?!?!]

[wittycat - *Wait. This is different.*]

[megafish - *Is Aoko always like this?*]

[lightshark - S-Serious Aoko?!]

Aoko frowned and said, "I get that messing around like that is fun and all, but you guys are acting like thirsty virgins whenever I show up. Even on my little sister's stream." She shook her head. "Look, I get it. We all need to let off steam. And acting like perverted assholes is fun. But if something's wrong with you bastards, I want to hear it. It'll make me look bad if you run off and do some weird shit, you know?"

[tanunicorn - I knew it! Queen does care!]

[purepeacock - *W-Whoa. I didn't expect this...*]

[gapingowl - Sorry Queen! I won't do it again!]

[loyalwolf - *Queen... is worried about us?*]

Aoko glanced at the chat and then looked back into the front of the screen. "Of course I worry about you bastards- Ah, hold up." She stood up and then dragged the chair closer. After that, she reached out to the side.

A soft mouse click echoed, and then the chat shrank down and floated down in front of Aoko. At the same time, the view of the room changed. Like a camera was zooming in, Aoko got closer until it was like she was sitting directly in front of the viewer.

"There. It's better to look eye to eye. Now you can't lie to me."

[flowerycod - Gah!]

[elfinseafowl - W-Why am I getting boss vibes from Queen?]

[fumblingvole - *So Queen is actually like a queen.*]

[Ki-Sama1 - Ah. I understand Alfis_Knight now.]

Aoko nodded and said, "What was I saying... Oh yeah." She frowned and said, "You bastards alright? If there's anything going on, you can tell me. I won't judge you... Unless you're dicking around to troll me. Then I'll roast your ass. But if you're being real, I'll do the same. Got it?" She smiled and said, "I don't know if I can do this whole idol thing like John wants us to be for Project MirAIs, but I can at least help you guys out like this." She laughed and said, "I mean, you stick around to watch my dumb shit, right? It's the least I can do."

[bountifulboa - ...So this is why Hana calls her Aneue.]

[skillfulbongo - QUEEEEEN! T_T]

[StraightGarbage - *And this is why we call you Queen.*]

[StepOnMeQueen - *Why don't you act like this more often?*]

Aoko read the last message then laughed. "Isn't it obvious?" She let out a genuine smile and said, "I'm *your* Queen, not one for some random assholes who just randomly tune in. Now, real talk. What's been going on?"
