-Hah.. this bitch doing one last run then quitting?

-But solo this time.
-Won't she do it with that VTuber from before?
ㄴ With 1.6M subs? She'd collab with a chosun mutt?
-Fuck when's karaoke again? Rewatching nonstop, so good.
ㄴ Wait a year for Miro karaoke.
ㄴ Yeah now never lol
[If Miro streamed like other members <]
5-6 hours per stream
Karaoke streams a few times a month
Prep content daily and stream, Heavenly Realm top dog?
-Miro's just balancing...
-She's already top dog.
-Anna cracking down telling her not to.
-Eh then she'd get owned by the seniors.
-Miro's just balancing..
-But only Miro streams almost daily...
ㄴ Only 2 hours tho
ㄴ Still, daily streams?

ㄴ Miro rlly chill no pointless beef lol
ㄴ Just playful like Crayon Shin-chan bitch lol
-Fuck just collab.
-Turn off stream and duo?
***
"Ah, should I have done it?"
Stream ended, late night.
In the now-empty apartment with some stuff packed away, she recalled the earlier situation.
To cut to the chase, she rejected the Japanese VTuber's proposal.
Since she was streaming, she said let's do it separately when not streaming.
Why did she do that?
Maybe she wanted a Japanese friend.
If they collabbed on stream, it'd just be a work relationship, right?
Like the Heavenly Realm Project peers who act close but never meet privately.
Maybe this chance could make her first real friend as a woman. Still unknown though.
Of course Hyejeong was a close friend, but that was Kim Suhyun's connection as a woman anyway.
Honestly, sometimes there's a disconnect even mid-convo.
Like nodding to memories she only knows from stories, awkward smile.
Then she feels not quite herself.
"Ah whatever."
She pulled the blanket over her head and closed her eyes.
Gotta sleep early today.
Got a message from the composer after stream.
Heavenly Realm Project new song done, come check it.
Tomorrow head over to hear the new song.
Studio demo only, haven't heard yet. Wonder how it turned out..
Knowing the composer's skill, more excitement than nerves as she fell asleep.
Next day.
Back at the composer's studio after days, still great.
Come to think, no contact since deciding on new song last time. Chill schedule?
"Nice to see you, Suhyun."
"Ah yes, Composer."
'Honorific changed.'
Used to be Miro-nim, now Suhyun-ssi.
Composer's way of showing closeness?
Or last contract was under Suhyun so that's the name.
Whatever, ask someday.
Thinking that, she followed him inside.
"Song came out well?"
Entered recording booth, sat on familiar sofa, composer stroked his signature scruffy beard and nodded.
"Turned out great. And reason I called Miro first is..."
"Yes? Why?"
"Need guide vocal."
"Yes? Guide?"
Guide vocal.
Before main singer records, sets direction so composer vision isn't distorted.
"-That's one reason, and talk about that separate contract new song."
He went to sound equipment, clicked mouse few times, played the song.
"First hear Heavenly Realm Project new song melody, lyrics printed here."
"Uh.. uh."
Plays song right away?
Brief fluster, then focused on melody.
Definitely catchy, refreshing.
And.. beyond good, melody alone seems tough already.
After melody, checked lyrics right away.
So... uh..
"This.. high teen vibe?"
"Correct."
...Heavenly Realm Project new song concept high teen. For real?
"All members students now?"
"Spot on."
Song features six students.
Obviously Heavenly Realm Project members.
Flashed to oldest Anna's age, but focused on lyrics.
Lyrics make it obvious who's who, almost laughed, but spotted weird lines.
Overly confident in self, brazen to others.
"...Who's this? Total narcissist."
"Miro-nim."
"Really?"
"...Who else?"
"Uh..."
"Personally like that part.. need to swap?"
"Ah no..."
Others see me that way huh...
But I was just objective about myself?
Hard to self-evaluate usually.
But woman Kim Suhyun clearly felt like a man to me, evaluated from man Kim Suhyun view, gained confidence.
...Not narcissism.
"Anyway, time for guide vocal."
"But why me..?"
Anna, Roa, even Maho better for this.
New song talk later separate time, no need me for guide.
"Practice."
"Ah."
"Be frank. That separate contract song, super tough."
"That.. one."
"Better stack XP first right?"
Too true, could only nod quietly.
Good for me anyway, saves composer time yet carving out slot for my growth.
"Guide so won't push too hard."
"Right..?"
"But ate lunch?"
"Had breakfast."
"Then lunch what?"
Note: 10 AM now.
Normal lunch 12...
"...Jjajangmyeon good."
At least two hours...
Helpful anyway, humbly accepted, entered booth like lamb to slaughter.
Guide recording done after over 4 hours past 2.
"Good work."
"Hoo... yes."
Said not hard guide, but tossed around studio for real.
"Ah.. ah.. throat.. not hurting?"
"Born with great vocals."
"Yeah?"
"Yes, even top singers envy. Be proud."
"Like this song's lyrics?"
"Haha.. said again, not my lyrics."
"Who wrote? Seems watched our streams.."
"Final lyricist my acquaintance, Heavenly Realm Project fan."
"Oh..."
Fan, wanna ask fave member when meet.
"Sign for you?"
"Hm.."
"Uh... just kidding."
Joking but why seriously pondering?
"She really need sign?"
"Ah no..."
"No..?"
"Actually my son watches Miro streams."
Son surprise, watches my stream?
"No son? How old?"
"Just started high school."
"Uh.."
He's early 40s...
"Married young?"
"Yeah.. happened that way."
Casual words, but mood sank.
...Sensitive topic huh.
Astute streamer Miro reads room, carefully changed subject.
"Where sign?"
Best switch topics quick.
"Uh..."
In cooled mood, found signing spot.
Obviously no sign stuff on hand, never signed before.
Something white.. writable... nearby notes items all his...
Tissue? Nah. Rip notebook page?
No.
Took off worn hat.
Cleaned recently, fine?
Placed hat on desk, grabbed oil pen.
Sign so.. just name?
"No Miro-nim? Signing that?"
"Yes my first sign? Super valuable."
First sign on personal hat? Premium.
"Uh wait."
Flustered by action, composer across stood slowly.
"No need decline..."
"Not that.. uh.. write my name too?"
Said no decline, but unexpected reply.
"Yes?"
"Uh.. son skips study anyway... just write my name."
"Uh.. uh.. yes.."
Subtle collector vibe?
