Cosplay Event (4): Pink Tteongi Beam
"Wow..." How many people is this?
I pushed through the wall-like crowd of people and approached the desk where the autograph sheets were laid out.
"What the hell is this situation?"
"We were just organizing our stuff when people suddenly swarmed in. We were totally shocked too."
"This is only natural. Tteongi's super popular, after all."
Hearing Gaeun's words, I couldn't hold back the grin spreading across my face.
"Let's start Tteongi's fan signing!"
"Yeah, let's go, Aram!"
The moment I sat down, I started shaking. I'd thought even ten people showing up would be a lot, but this crowd looked like it had to be over a hundred.
"Tteongi, fighting."
The Queen patted my tense shoulders while she filmed.
Yeah. Let's do this with confidence.
"Yes, first guest, please come forward."
"Ah, hello. I drew this of Tteongi..."
"Wow! You drew that really well."
I showed the portrait of my face on the screen.
"Even if it's not much, I'll draw an autograph for you too."
I wrote Tteongi♡ in neat block letters and handed it over.
"Write the name next to it too..."
"Ah, okay."
I listened to the name and wrote "to. [Name]" right beside it.
"Please keep enjoying the streams~"
"Thank you... I'll buy a bromide too."
"Thank you."
The second person was the one who had shyly given me snacks that morning. They'd changed into cosplay clothes, so I almost didn't recognize them.
"Um..."
"Hello~ You're the one who gave me snacks this morning, right?!"
"Yes..."
"The cosplay looks great on you."
"...Thank you."
You don't have to be that shy.
"What's your name or nickname? I'll write it for you."
"My nickname is..."
Since they're all my viewers, I knew it was going to be something weird.
"Don't overthink it, just tell me comfortably~"
"Tteong... Tteongi'sWombTattoo."
"It was you, you bastard."
"I'll change it right away!"
I continued greeting fan after fan.
"Hello~"
"You're seriously so beautiful."
"Can we do a high-five..."
The line didn't seem to end no matter how long we went. Still, thinking that every single one of them was my fan made my hand feel as light as a feather.
A while later, the fan signing finally ended and we decided to take a lunch break. My hand was sore, so I set the pen down and stretched.
"Ugh... that was brutal. Felt like I was filling out an English vocabulary book."
"I'm banning 'back pussy.'"
"Behave yourself."
"Aww, thank you."
"Really!?"
I remembered there had been quite a lot.
"Aram. Did all the merch sell out?"
"Yes, Tteongi. It was all gone ten minutes after we opened."
"Wow, fuck..."
This was my first proper fan meeting, and it had been way more successful than I imagined. No, it was a massive hit.
"Thank you everyone, seriously..."
"I'm not crying?"
"Wow, fuck, that's cheesy."
"Looking at it again, it's like a goddess!"
Then I should just play it off like I'm smoothly wrapping up.
"The womb tattoo sale has ended along with the fan signing."
"...You fucking assholes."
"Fine, fuck it! Womb tattoo! Don't you want to get me pregnant?"
I lifted my shirt and showed my belly to the camera.
Then my eyes met Gaeun's while she was cleaning up the booth.
"Th-the viewers gave me another weird mission..."
"So that's why..."
After cleaning up, we spread a mat outside the exhibition hall in a nice scenic spot and sat down. I fixed the selfie stick to a tripod so it would be easy to eat.
"Here, take one each. The butler made these."
The Queen handed out the lunch boxes one by one.
"Whoa~ These are no joke. You could sell these."
"Thank you for the meal, Short-Hair Queen!"
"Yes, everyone enjoy~"
But my lunch box was a special pink color.
"Mine's pink...?"
"I gave you extra meat."
"Maman~"
"Good girl, good girl."
After being held by The Queen and getting thoroughly petted, I opened my lunch box.
"It's packed full... Don't say it's as full as cum in my womb."
I blocked the weird comment before it could come out.
"Sh-shut up..."
"Tteongi, stop that. You must be hungry. Say 'ah~'."
The Queen picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and brought it to my lips.
"Ah~"
"Anyone who says bad words without donating gets banned?"
"Hurry~"
"Ah..."
I took the meat into my mouth.
"Mmm~ It's delicious."
"I'm glad. I made Tteongi's lunch box myself."
"Huh!? Really?"
"Yes~ While you were sleeping early this morning, I snuck out of bed."
"No, no matter what, showing my belly during a meal is..."
"I'm fine with it, Tteongi."
"What!?"
The Queen is in on it too...
"Ugh... My Queen..."
Like pledging loyalty to The Queen, I showed the womb tattoo.
"Really~ Even I think I drew it well."
"That's enough. Let's eat now, Tteongi."
"You two look really good lately. Short-Hair Queen."
Gaeun, who had been quietly watching us, spoke up.
"Pardon?"
"I don't know, but it feels like you've been smiling more. You seem gentler too."
"Is that so? Must be thanks to Tteongi."
I pointed at myself with my finger.
"What about me?"
"You need to grow up a bit."
"..."
"Now that I think about it, it's almost the Short-Hair Queen's birthday, right?!"
Aram mumbled through a mouthful of food.
"Yes, it's only a few days away."
That's right! It was almost The Queen's birthday. I remembered seeing her birthday stream around this time last year.
"My Queen, I'll definitely prepare a birthday present for you!"
"I'll look forward to it, Tteongi."
I wonder what The Queen would like. Since it's my first time giving a present to my girlfriend, I want to give her something meaningful.
A while later... Inside the exhibition stage. The host in character costume began the stage performances.
"Yes, hello everyone~"
"Waaaaah!!"
"At this cosplay event, so many of you came in costume~ Out of everyone, a total of five teams applied for stage performances."
Meanwhile, the sound of the audience echoed all the way to the waiting room, making my heart pound wildly.
"I'm nervous..."
"Everyone's just here to have fun, so don't feel pressured. Though it would be nice to win first place if possible."
"Do I have to show the womb tattoo?"
"Absolutely not during the performance."
"Aww~ I know that much at least."
While I was worrying about what to show, it was already our turn.
"The final stage performance is from the team that cosplayed as magical girls—Tteongi!"
"Tteongi! Tteongi! Tteongi!"
The audience's chants echoed through the hall.
"Tteongi, fighting! We luckily got permission to film the performance, so the Queen and I will be filming from the front of the stage."
"Okay, Aram."
The Queen patted my shoulder.
"Do your best, Tteongi."
"I'm worried about what I should do, My Queen."
"In times like this, just follow your heart."
"Womb tattoo?"
"That one's not allowed."
When I stepped onto the stage, the cheers grew even louder. Looking at the audience, more than half were fans who had gotten my autograph earlier.
Seeing them again here feels so touching.
"The heat in here is intense. Hello, everyone! We're Tteongi's team!"
"Nice to meet you~"
"Waaaaah!!"
When I bowed, the cheers rang out even louder.
"Ooh~ So this is what a major streamer looks like."
"Hahaha... Not quite."
"Alright~ Just like the other teams, please show us a performance or dance."
"A performance..."
"I'll go first."
Gaeun stepped forward a few paces and got into position.
"Play any girl's idol song."
She perfectly danced along to a female idol song.
Gaeun's dancing is really good.
The audience shouted in satisfaction. At this rate, it felt like we'd just blend into the group project and disappear... No. This is Team Tteongi. I can't fade into the background. Time to show some leader spirit.
I decided to stay true to the magical girl concept.
"Hello everyone! I am the magical girl, Magical Tteongi!!"
This is so fucking embarrassing.
"Uwooooo!!"
"Tteongi! Tteongi!"
If I'm a magical girl, I need a finishing move too.
"I'll... try the finishing move too."
"Everyone, she says it's her finishing move! Please look forward to it!"
I might get clipped and roasted all day from the video donation. Even so, my body was already prepared, craving the attention.
"..."
I made a heart shape with both hands and stretched my arms out. Then I shouted with all my strength.
"Pink Tteongi Beam!!"
