The Answer of an IdolStory Description: Join Sunna as she searches for the answer to "What is an idol?" Along the way, she seems to come to realize something else as well...?
- Sunna: I've been thinking about something... What is an "idol"?
- Huh?
- It doesn't sound like something you'd say...
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Whoa, you're pondering some deep questions there, Sunna... That really doesn't sound like you.Whoa, you're pondering some deep questions there, Sunna... That really doesn't sound like you. /
What!? Are you actually pondering deep questions? That doesn't really sound like you, Sunna!What!? Are you actually pondering deep questions? That doesn't really sound like you, Sunna!) - Sunna: Wh—Wh—What! Am I a total idiot in your eyes?!
- Sunna: I can think about serious stuff every once in a while! ...Okay?! Writing lyrics takes a lot of depth, you know!
- Don't be mad.
- I was just kidding.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Don't be mad, Sunna. I was just teasing you. Anyway, back to what you were saying...Don't be mad, Sunna. I was just teasing you. Anyway, back to what you were saying... /
Don't be mad, I was kidding. I just wanted to get a cute reaction out of you~Don't be mad, I was kidding. I just wanted to get a cute reaction out of you~) - Sunna: Hmph! I'll be the bigger person and forgive you this time!
- Sunna: Anyway... even after digging through dictionaries and the entire internet, I still can't figure out exactly what an "idol" is...
- How about asking the people around you first?
- Why not ask another idol about it?
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Let me think... (What if you ask someone who's also an idol, like... your group members?What if you ask someone who's also an idol, like... your group members? /
Maybe ask someone who's also an idol, like... your group members?Maybe ask someone who's also an idol, like... your group members?) - Nangong Yu: Oho~ Someone thinking about me~? Let me see who it is. Manager? Or~ little Sunna?!
- Sunna: N—N—Nangong! You startled me!
- Nangong Yu: Hmm~ What's on your mind lately? You've looked so distracted during practice.
- Sunna: I... I wan... I wanted to ask you something. Why did you wanna become an idol?
- Nangong Yu: Me? Well, you should know this better than anyone. I wasn't particularly set on becoming an idol in the beginning~
- Nangong Yu: But now, the reason I want to keep being an idol... It's no longer just about helping you chase your dream. I can't quite put it into words, but whatever it is... it's something about me. My own reason.
- Nangong Yu: But honestly, instead of overthinking all that, I'd rather do a few more sets of practice.
Oh, right, Sunna, you forgot to breathe properly while singing today. Caught you again. Extra practice for you! - Sunna: Oh no, Manager, run! I still haven't figured anything out yet, and I don't want her dragging me off for extra practice!
- Sunna dashes out of 404, pulling you along, and you end up near the noodle shop.
When you look back, Nangong doesn't seem to be chasing you. She was probably only saying it to scare Sunna. - Sunna: Phew! Looks like we shook her off! Good thing I can run!
- Sunna: Wait... th—that's—!
- Those familiar sunglasses...
- That familiar red dress...
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (Yeah... Those footsteps, that red dress, and those sunglasses — it's Astra!Yeah... Those footsteps, that red dress, and those sunglasses — it's Astra! /
Those sunglasses, that red dress, those familiar footsteps — it's Astra!Those sunglasses, that red dress, those familiar footsteps — it's Astra!) - Astra Yao: Ah! It's (WiseWise /
BelleBelle)... and Sunna! What are you doing here? - Astra Yao: What's going on with you two...? You look completely out of breath.
- Sunna: W—We just escaped from some... very dangerous pursuers...
- Astra Yao: Oh? "Dangerous pursuers," you say? Sounds like you've got quite an interesting story to share with me~
- You explain to Astra why you and Sunna ended up here and tell her about Sunna's confusion over what it means to be an idol...
- Astra Yao: Well~ I'd better help Sunna figure this out quickly, or it might cut into your extra practice time~
- Sunna: N—Noooo— Please don't scare me like that! I'm already exhausted from today's practice... *sobs*
- Astra Yao: I'm just teasing. Your reactions are always so priceless, haha!
- Astra Yao: As for "what is an idol"... that's a question only you yourself can answer, Sunna.
- Sunna: Only I can answer...? What do you mean...?
- Astra Yao: What I mean is, being an idol isn't about finding a definition. It's about what you do.
- Astra Yao: What an idol is doesn't matter... It's what kind of idol you want to become, Sunna, that's the real question.
- Sunna: But... I don't even know what kind of idol I want to be...
- Sunna: At the very beginning, all I wanted was to write songs that would make people happy. I just really liked the part of myself that created music, the me who was completely immersed in it.
- Sunna: But little by little, I think I also started liking the version of myself who stands in the center of the stage, the me who dances a bit awkwardly yet still manages to pull off those cute moves...
- Sunna: In the end, am I doing this for myself or for everyone else...? Am I an idol because I want to write songs, or because I want to perform...? I don't even know anymore.
- Astra Yao: You silly girl!
- Astra reaches out and flicks Sunna lightly on the forehead.
Sunna clutches her head and freezes on the spot like a startled little kitty. - Astra Yao: Who says you need to have an answer right now?
- Sunna: Huh?
- Astra's right.
- It's okay if you don't have it figured out yet.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): Astra's right. It's fine if you don't know yet. Sunna, you still have plenty of time, and as you walk this path as a member of Angels of Delusion, you'll find your own answer eventually.
- Sunna: Ah... You think so too, Manager!?
- Astra Yao: I already told you. Being an idol is something you do, something you learn and grow into. You only figure it out by moving forward, step by step!
- Astra Yao: Your idol journey just started, and you already want to solve something some people never figure out in their whole lives? You're getting ahead of yourself, little Sunna!
- Sunna: I—I—I didn't mean it like that!
- Astra Yao: Alright, I'll stop teasing you. Just take your time with it. And honestly, I still haven't completely figured it out myself!
- Astra waves and walks off, her confident silhouette lingering in view. Not far away, she casually orders a bowl of extra-spicy noodles from General Chop.
- Sunna: So even New Eridu's most famous idol, the perfect Astra Yao, doesn't really know what an idol is...
- Looks like you don't have to rush it.
- You can relax now.
- (ProtagonistProtagonist): (See? Even Astra hasn't figured it out.See? Even Astra hasn't figured it out. /
Even Astra hasn't figured it out...Even Astra hasn't figured it out...) You really don't need to worry, Sunna. You can relax and take your time to find the answer while walking your own path as an (idol.idol. / idol!idol!) - Sunna: Mhm! Thanks for helping me search for answers today, Manager. Though... I guess the answer wasn't really the important part.
- Sunna: But if Astra's eating those noodles, maybe I'll get some idol inspiration from eating some too...!
- Sunna: General Chop, I'll also have a bowl of extra-spicy noodles, please!
Trust Rank Upgrade to Trusted with Sunna- (Idle)
- Sunna: Give me one too, please...
- (Talk to Sunna again, optional)
- Sunna: A bowl of extra spicy noodles, please!
- Sunna: Wait a sec... is this gonna be crazy spicy...?
- Sunna: How about... just a little less chili?
- (Idle)
- Astra Yao: It smells amazing!
- (Talk to Astra Yao again, optional)
- Astra Yao: Mmm~ Smells amazing!
- Astra Yao: Food really does need a little spice to bring out its true flavor!
