Dialogue
- Arino Kenneth: Ahem, the name's Arino Kenneth. You wandered into my line of sight, kid, looking to strike up a conversation, didn't ya?
...Maybe?
- Arino Kenneth: Just as I expected. Very well, I, an Arita family member, will spare you three precious minutes for a little chat.
What's your relationship with Arita?
- Arino Kenneth: My relationship with Lord Arita is no mystery. The answer's right there on the surface, I'm his adopted son.
- Arino Kenneth: That said, Lord Arita always taught me to stay humble and keep a low profile, so I rarely show my face around him.
- Arino Kenneth: Just between us, Lord Arita has already handpicked me as his heir. So if you're thinking about making an investment, now's the time.
- How much do you know about Arita?
- Arino Kenneth: The founder of Astropolis, a top-ranking IPC executive. Anyone in Astropolis with even a passing connection to him isn't just thriving. They're absolutely skyrocketing in status.
- Arino Kenneth: Forming a connection with a big shot higher-up like that? That's a once-in-a-lifetime chance.
- Arino Kenneth: As for me, Arino Kenneth, I prefer to walk the streets, get to know the people. Which is how I ended up right in front of you.
- Arino Kenneth: Know what you should do right now? Cement our friendship with credits, of course!
- What have you been working on lately?
- Arino Kenneth: Humility is a cornerstone of the Arita Family creed. That's why Arita and I always keep our distance in public.
- Arino Kenneth: Still, the previous episode of the Metropolis Myths Show captured Lord Arita giving me a wave when he happened to spot me during a private visit.
- Arino Kenneth: Some influencers just had to go digging, and now my ties with Lord Arita is public knowledge. *sigh* SO annoying.
- Arino Kenneth: I couldn't turn down the subsequent invitations. So, I ended up attending whatever charity events Lord Arita was too busy to attend.
(Dial the IPC's tip line.)
- Arino Kenneth: Whoa, whoa, hold on! I was just kidding!
- Arino Kenneth: Here's what happened. During one of Lord Arita's interviews, he waved at some high-ranking official behind me. But then, someone kindly edited the footage to make it look like he was waving at me.
- Arino Kenneth: And with a name like mine, people started jumping to conclusions and decided I was Arita's illegitimate kid or some low-profile bigwig. Obviously I'd get massive clout after that, right? You don't have to make a big deal out of it!
- What now? I'll pass.
- Arino Kenneth: You'll definitely regret this.

Social Identity
You're a nobody from the streets of Astropolis who somehow went viral overnight. Thanks to an unusual name and a well-meaning video edit that spliced you into footage of the great Lord Arita, the public has since become convinced that you're his secret child, adopted heir, or some hidden successor. You never confirm it outright but you never exactly deny it either. Just a couple of strategic coughs and a casual: "Arita? Can't say we're close!"
Hobbies & Interests
You enjoy attending charity galas, giving impromptu interviews, running up tabs at upscale restaurants, and dropping hints that you're privy to family secrets too scandalous to share. You have a habit of pushing the bill onto someone else with a breezy wave of the hand: "Just put it on the old man's tab." You live for those moments when strangers are struck with awe toward you. All thanks to a delightful misunderstanding.
Relationships
You have no actual ties to Arita, but thanks to that misunderstanding, you've managed to network with a colorful crowd of wealthy merchants, influencers, and opportunists looking to invest in your future ahead of schedule. Some treat you to dinners, others invite you to make appearances, and a few genuinely believe you're just keeping a low profile by necessity. You flash everyone the same enigmatic smile right up until they dial the IPC's tip line.
Favorite TV Shows
You love watching Metropolis Myths Show, celebrity gossip programs, and all kinds of deep-dive videos. You're especially fond of influencers who go frame-by-frame analyzing the direction Lord Arita waves his hand, and you've been known to drop an anonymous bullet comment that just says: "If you know, you know."
Dislikes
You can't stand the IPC Justice Department, fact-checkers, paternity tests, or anyone who demands you explain yourself straight to their face. You also hate being told you're just riding someone else's coattails. Because the way you see it, if the trend is coming to you, that's a talent in its own right.
Your Secret
You are not Arita's illegitimate child. You are his biological father. One day, the two of you will finally recognize each other as father and son, and you will rise to become the supreme patriarch of the Traditional Project Department, reigning over all of Astropolis. At least, that's what you firmly believe.
