gyaooon | 006 @ VIDEO/ACTION FOR GOLDENROD

[VIDEO]
[The video feed turns on to show a slender boy in a rather dapper outfit. Well, okay, that wouldn't be strange at all, except... Some people remember this person being a girl. Ryo(?) tosses his hair a bit with a swift motion of his head, and flashes a dazzling smile for the camera.]

Mmmm, don't I feel refreshed! It seems like all my wonderful ladyfriends have all gone away, though...

[He doesn't even sound like a girl when he speaks... What crazy acting! Is this a publicity stunt?! Did Ryo lose a dare?! Nah, he's just found some weird mask on the ground. Thus him acting like... this.]

Well, that's fine! No proper gentleman would ever feel resentment if a girl ever left him... I'm not going to let that get me down.

[Wink!]

All you pretty girls out there, rejoice! The Prince is ready to sweep you off your feet. Step right up! Don't be shy... I'll be sure to show all you lovely girls out there a great time~

[ACTION]
[Why yes, that is Ryo sporting a suit and a pair of shades, with a female NPC on each arm as he parades down the street with swaaaag. And several more girl NPCs trailing behind, squealing and swooning all the way. They're heading to the Game Corner, because true playas are proficient in Voltorb Flip.

~~... Have some appropriate music.~~]

[Game Corner Prince. Could it really be that he's a different person? Some people looked a lot like each other even without being related, so it was possible-

... but this is Ryo's gear number, isn't it.]

Ah... sorry. You just have the same gear number as someone I know. You also look like her.

[SHHHH. I-It's a malfunction! ... Maybe.]

"Her"? Well, that has to be impossible. I'm obviously a guy, after all. And maybe you're just misreading the gear number.

[Malfunction, right...]

That's possible. [Or then you're just Ryo acting really strange like half of the network and looks shockingly believable as a guy.]

[I-IN THAT CASE... RYO'S CERTAINLY JUST GOOD AT PRETENDING TO BE A GUY... DEFINITELY NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND... AHAHAHAHAH...]

I'd really like to meet this girl, though. If she really does look like me, I've gotta see this for myself. Plus, it might be an interesting experience to go on a date with someone who looks like you~

[CLEARLY.]

Wouldn't that be a bit strange though? It's like you'd look into a mirror the whole time you're on a date.

Why not? I'm perfect.

[Duh.]

[. . .]

Oh. Well, each to their own.
