Chapter 66: I Drank All the Leftovers
“Thermal Sentai Denshiger” is a Japanese tokusatsu show that Princess Blanc likes.
"I’ll give you a quick rundown of the situation."
Top Chat: ah, here we go again… another Elf episode featuring her love for Thermal Sentai Denshiger…!
Top Chat: I wanna swap places too!
Top Chat: if I switched, I’d wanna do the same kind of stuff Elf-san does!
Top Chat: even if I became an elf, I don’t think I could “elf” like she does
Top Chat: …yeah, that’s fair
"I got a text from my little sister saying she’s in my room."
Top Chat: gasp!
Top Chat: please, make her call you “big brother-in-law”!
Top Chat: you’re jumping ahead, man
Top Chat: fine, then at least start with “let’s be friends”!
Top Chat: this guy’s totally trying to sneak in a confession attempt…
"So, I decided to wrap up the shoot early and head back to meet her. But if I just show up like this, my sister’s gonna freak out seeing me as an elf."
"Um, are you sure… freaking out is the only problem here…?"
"That’s why I’m gonna call her first."
Top Chat: ah, I see?
Top Chat: going home ‘cause your sister’s there → okay, makes sense
Top Chat: calling her so she won’t freak out at seeing you as an elf → …doesn’t make sense
Top Chat: I mean, if she didn’t know this elf thing was a setup, she’d probably think you’re lying anyway
Top Chat: imagine going to your brother’s room and some random cosplaying girl claiming to be him opens the door
Top Chat: yeah, that’s… a police report waiting to happen
I dialed the number saved on my phone, and she picked up after just three rings.
"Ahem, ahem!"
『Hello, um… hello? Big brother?』
"Yo."
『…Big brother?』
"What?"
『Your voice sounds weird?』
"I’ve been playing around with helium too much."
Top Chat: Elf-san lolol
Top Chat: wow, she actually came up with that excuse
Top Chat: there’s no way that’s gonna work lol
『Helium?』
"Yeah, from a party pack. I’m at the natural hot spring leisure hotel 《Steam Beam》 with some friends right now."
『H-hot spring? A hotel? You’re on a trip?』
"Just a day trip. I’m heading back soon, I’ll show you the video later."
『Eh, really!? Yay!』
Top Chat: o-oh…?
Top Chat: wait, did that actually work?
Top Chat: they’re getting along fine lol
『It’s a hotel with hot springs, right? Did you go in, big brother?』
"Yeah."
『Lucky! What was it like? Tell me, tell me!』
"Smelly."
Top Chat: bruh lol
Top Chat: reminder: you have sponsors
Top Chat: it’s a sulfur spring, can’t really help the smell lol
『I see, I see! How was the food? Was it good?』
"Yeah, it was good."
『Nice, niiice! What kind of leisure stuff do they have?』
"The see-through meat apron marble-rolling game was fun."
『Uh? The… see-through… what?』
Top Chat: ※ Elf-san’s naming sense strikes again
Top Chat: no one actually remembers the real name
Top Chat: lmao
Top Chat: still, she’s not explaining the situation at all, huh
Top Chat: wonder how she’s gonna handle it from here?
"Mind if I stay on the call until I get back to my room?"
『Sure! I don’t mind at all, but… is that okay for you?』
"I’m getting a ride, so it’s fine."
『Oh, got it! Then let’s talk a lot, okay, big brother!』
"Yeah."
Top Chat: wait, how long are you planning to keep talking?
Top Chat: huh? Whiteboard?
Top Chat: what are you writing on it?
Top Chat: talking and writing at the same time, huh… that’s some skill
I finished writing on the whiteboard and held it up toward the camera. The words read: 『The camera belongs to Misora’s staff, so this stream ends here.』 That was it.
"Car’s here."
――This stream has ended――
Top Chat: ahhh…
Top Chat: that cut-off though…
Top Chat: well, makes sense since the camera’s borrowed
Top Chat: she didn’t explain the full story, but she casually slipped in “day trip” there
Top Chat: you could really see a bit of kindness in that
