## Stages

### Visit to the Set

Expand for script.

* I sent Kiro an appointment request. I didn't know if he'd have any time that day, but I still really wanted to give him his present in person.
* In order to collect super hero cards and try to make the potato chip cake, I basically cleared out half the shelves in the supermarket I also caused Kiki, Willow and the others-- who were forced to eat all of them-- to turn green at the smell of a potato chip.
* There was still one more week to Kiro's birthday, and today, I was heading to the office as usual.
* **MC**: Oh yeah, I...
* **Anna**: MC, you're here? I set up meeting with an advertiser. It's almost time, so I gotta go!
* **Willow**: I-- I suddenly have a bit of a stomach ache. I'm going to the restroom!
* **Kiki**: ... Boss, take pity on my miserable self!
* **MC**: What are you saying? I didn't bring a cake today.
* **Kiki**: Really?
* **MC**: ... Really.
* **MC**: I just thought, beside a cake, wouldn't it be good to give some other gift too?
* **Kiki**: Then you should go down to Kiro's offices and check it out, Boss!
* **Willow**: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I heard that lots of fans sent gifts to B.S. You should go see!
* **MC**: Don't you have a stomach ache...?
* **MC**: Although I was a bit skeptical, I went to go check it out anyway.
* When I got to B.S., Kiro wasn't there, so that meant I had a chance to probe his agent for some information.
* **Savin**: You're looking for Kiro? He just went to do a magazine interview.
* **MC**: Actually, I was coming to see you!
* **Savin**: See me? What's this about? My boy Kiro is booked solid these couple days. There no time to take your...
* **MC**: That's not it! I, uh... I wanted to ask... Kiro's birthday is coming up, right? What kinda present do you think I should get him?
* **Savin**: Birthday present? Well, what were you planning to give?
* **MC**: Um, snack food?
* **Savin**: The amount of snacks Kiro's gotten these past two weeks is enough to fill several warehouses. It's enough to circle Loveland City three times.
* **Savin**: You'd better not give snacks. I really doubt his ability to control himself. Calories are a star's natural enemy.
* **MC**: Then... I hear naming a star after someone is a popular thing lately?
* **Savin**: That's not bad. But we've been getting a bunch of those every year since a few years back. I hear there's even one named "Kiro#049".
* **Savin**: As for other star-shaped ornaments and star-related stuff, there's too much to count.
* **MC**: Oh...
* **Savin**: Whether it's food, handmade goods, collectibles, limited editions-- if you can think of it, Kiro's gotten it!
* Total failure... Of course I could never compare to those rabid fangirls!

### Into the Birthday Party: B-Day Close-Up

*There are more fans than expected following Kiro's birthday party developments. I've decided to take advantage and make a report on the pre-birthday preparations.*

Before shooting, you need to learn about what the fans wanna see. You plan to get an expert to do a survey.
**Keyword**: Docu, Interview

**Keyword**: Docu, Content

### As Long As It's You

Expand for script.

* The agent's somewhat boastful answer dashed my plans to pieces, and I immediately crossed all my gift back-up options off my mental list.
* **MC:** Is there really no other option?
* **Savin:** Another option?
* Savin rubbed his chin, and then a subtle look showed across his face, seemingly eager yet cautious at the same time.
* **Savin:** My guess is, as long as you come, he'll be happy.
* **MC:** But that doesn't count as a gift...
* **Savin:** Then you'll just have to think long and hard about it.
* **Savin:** It's almost time. Kiro's interview should be just about finished.
* **MC:** Wait, I'll go with you!
* Interviewing him in B.S.'s reception room was one of the most influential magazines at the moment. Seems they were planning an exclusive interview for Kiro's birthday.
* **Interviewer:** That concludes the interview. Thank you, Kiro!
* **Kiro:** You're welcome! I look forward to your new issue!
* **MC:** Finished? How do you feel, tired?
* **Kiro:** MC!
* **Kiro:** What are you doing here!? Are you visiting me on the job? I'm so happy!
* **MC:** Yeah! Right, I...
* Oh no! I didn't bring anything, or buy anything!
* **MC:** I guess I forgot to get you a "set visit" gift...
* **Kiro:** No need!
* Kiro shook his head. He seemed very happy.
* **Kiro:** I'm thrilled just to see you!
* **Kiro:** Although...
* Kiro suddenly got closer and took a couple sniffs.
* **MC:** Wha-- what is it?
* His face turned all serious, and I started wondering whether or not I had some kind of strange smell on me.
* **Kiro:** I distinctly detect the sweet smell of vanilla extract and butter!
* **Kiro:** Have you been eating alone?
* Met with his accusing eyes, I was momentarily speechless.
* I purposefully changed clothes before going out. How was he able to still smell it?
* **MC:** I'll give you two servings of pudding next time!
* **Kiro:** Really? That's great!
* **MC:** Uh... Is there anything you've been wanting lately?
* Kiro looked at me and flashed a somewhat cunning grin, as if he had figured something out.
* **Kiro:** As long as it's from you, I'll like it!
* Although this was nice to hear, it still wasn't much of an answer.
* **MC:** I...
* **Kiro:** I'm really looking forward to it!
* **Savin:** Kiro, up next you've got an ad shoot, so you've only got ten minutes to rest before we've gotta go out.
* **Kiro:** So soon?
* **MC:** Huh? Didn't the interview just end?
* **Kiro:** You heard it too? Only got 10 minutes. Not enough time at all.
* **MC:** Then you better get some rest!
* **Kiro:** I've only got ten minutes to be with you, so you've gotta stay with me.
* There were things I wanted to ask, but I just couldn't say them out loud.

### His First Impression

He's a super idol under the spotlight. A warm, brilliant little sun. That was my first impression of Kiro.
