First match!

[[The boy showing up on the screen looked...well. Crestfallen to say the least. He pulled his orange headband down a little before finally addressing the screen.]]

I...I'm sorry everyone. [[What's this kid apologizing for?]] We failed. We let the aliens win... [[It was clearly hard to admit, he was visibly trembling.]]

I...there's no excuse. I wasn't strong enough. I'm sorry. [[His fists finally pounded on the console. He was so frustrated, so disappointed in himself. After a moment he sighed, relaxing as best he could. His hands slipped from the console, and he put on a smile.]]

So...who all is here? Mom? Any of my team? How about any other soccer players? Please ah...speak up! I want to know who was saved...

[ .. Huh. This person seems upset, but then he's smiling.. is he upset that he's here or not? She really can't tell, so she just stares blankly at the feed. ]

You were fighting aliens? Green ones?

No, they weren't green. They looked like humans. In fact, Kidou said they actually were humans, just like...super powered or something by a space rock!! I think that's what he said. They were orphans being used...

[chainsawn]

Being used.. huh, that sounds sad..

[ Wait.. she's slowly realising something here. Didn't something in the middle of that sound familiar..? ]

"Kidou".. you mean.. Yuuto Kidou..?

[blockspenguins]

Doesn't it? [[He doesn't have a chance to contemplate the sadness behind that before she brings up Kidou.]]

Yeah! That's him! Do you know him?

[chainsawn]

Yuuto's.. my boyfriend. [ Yeah, dropping that bombshell. But it's a normal fact to hern ow, so she doesn't think it's really strange. ]

He's here too.. he's been here with me all this time. I didn't know you were one of his friends.

[blockspenguins]

Yeah! We're best friends. We're on the same soccer team right now and everything! He used to be part of Teikoku, but joined Raimon after his team lost to Zeus. I'm really glad that he did.

It's nice to meet you! I'm Endou Mamoru. What's your name?

[[Wait for it.]]

...eh? Eh?! He's your boyfriend?!

[chainsawn]

[ So it's one of his soccer buddies! Now that makes sense, she's briefly met some of those before, just not this one before. ]

My name's Urotsuki. And yes, he's my boyfriend. [ .. a blink. ] That's not weird though, is it..?
