I snapped my fingers. "O-Oi! Calm down, Celes! And no, they are not me! They just... look like me. A lot. There's only one Sen, and only one of me, alright?"
Sena giggled and sat on the corner of the desk. Sensually crossing her legs, she said, "We can share though~"
"No!" I snapped at her, hugging Celes. "We can't!"
Celes turned a bright red and leaned into me. That seemed to help her recover a bit and she said, "Y-Yes. Only one Sen. No sharing..."
"Right! I'm yours, and you're mine, and no one else!"
Sena giggled and said, "My~ Someone's possessive."
I felt my face heat up, but I didn't back down. "I won't let anyone steal Celes away from me!"
Celes turned a bright red and leaned into me. She let out a giddy giggle and then kissed my cheek. "I love you, Sen."
I felt my face heat up more, but I nodded and said, "L-Love you too, Celes."
Zenki sighed. "Stop teasing them, Sena."
Sena pouted and said, "Fiiine." She dropped the act and then hopped off the table. After that, she stood up straight, taking a professional stance, just like a secretary-
Wait, no. She just pulled out a pair of gsses from her- Ignore that. But anyway, Sena pulled out a pair of gsses and put them on. After smoothing her pencil skirt and white blouse, she looked the part of a proper secretary... albeit a really lewd one.
Sena looked over at Celes and said, "Sorry to disappoint you, Celes, but we aren't your Sen. We're more like..." She hummed and said, "You can think of us like Sen's big brother and sister."
I finally recovered and then pointed at Zenki. "Alright! Spill the beans already! What's going on here?!"
Zenki held up his hands and said, "Don't shoot the messenger, Sen." He nodded towards Sena and said, "I'm sure Help-chan has expined a bit, but we're your initial support staff. I'm here to help with logistics, and Sena is here to act as a manager and handler, along with security for the VIMS talents."
I paused, mulling over his words. Then I slowly said, "...Okay. That... makes sense. A bit. Still, why you two?"
Zenki shrugged. "I dunno."
Sena shrugged too and said, "Beats me."
...
[Help: Oh! I can expin!]
Alright. Help me out then, Help-chan.
[Help: Since the MIRAIZ system was originally based on a gacha game...]
What?
[Help: ...Mister Zenki and Miss Sena are like the free tutorial units you get to help you at the start! If you want someone else, you'll have to recruit them normally, or spin the gacha!]
Hah... at the end of the day it's all gachas again, huh- Wait. But the System... Well, Cici said that Celes was a Ptinum-grade talent or something. Wasn't she my starter unit?
[Help: Miss Celes is like your first UR summon! And she wasn't guaranteed! If this was a game, it'd be like a 0.003% chance to summon her with the tutorial roll!]
Wow. So it really is fate that I met Celes- Wait, I'm getting distracted!
Zenki pulled out some soda cans from a mini-fridge underneath his desk and slid them over. "Here. Take it easy a bit and let's slowly sort this out."
I grabbed one and handed to other to Celes. Then I looked at Zenki, gathering my thoughts.
Sena idly pyed with her blouse, adjusting it.
Seeing that, and her curves, I subconsciously swallowed. It was one thing having them for myself when I turned into that form, but seeing it objectively from a third person view...
Celes frowned and tugged my arm.
I felt my face heat up and said, "Sorry Celes."
Celes huffed. "You don't need to look at other women, Sen." Her cheeks tinged red and then she quietly said, "Y-You can touch me all you want, so..."
I froze.
Sena giggled. "You're so adorable, Celes~ Sen is a lucky guy."
Zenki rubbed his face. "Okay, enough with the romcom comedy BS. Let's hurry up and wrap this employee meeting up before Cici does something ridiculous downstairs in the game studio."
I spped my face to focus. Then I nodded. "Alright."
Celes took a deep breath and fanned her face a bit. But then she calmed down too and said, "Okay... Then Mister... Zenki?"
Zenki nodded. "That's right."
Celes nodded. "Please expin. For my sake and Sen's."
"Yeah." I frowned. "So we're doing the 'idol' arc or whatever, right? And you're here to help with that?"
Zenki cracked open a soda beled 'Dk Salt' and nodded. "Yes. Like I said, we're here to help with the VTuber idol stuff. I'll handle the business and legal aspect of things..."
Sena chimed in. "And I'll help with management, PR, security, and other things!"
I gave them both dubious looks. "...And you're both qualified, right...?" Because if they were just copies of me, boy were were screwed...
Zenki rolled his eyes. "Yes, we're qualified. It was a painful headache sorting out all that info, but we're experts at least."
[Help: Don't worry, Mister Sen! You can check them with
Oh right, I had that thing. Let's see... I focused on Zenki and Sena.

...Okay. I see what you mean. But uh... why is Sena's specialty...?
[Help: ...Um. I think that's R18 and you aren't old enough yet, so I can't say...]
...
Celes sipped on her soda. After looking at Zenki and Sena one more time, she said, "I don't really understand... but am I right that you two are here because of Sen's abilities?"
Zenki nodded. "It's something like that."
Celes looked at me with sparkling eyes and said, "As expected of my Sen..."
I felt my face heat up. "I-It's not that special, Celes..."
Sena giggled. "My Sen, hm~?"
Isn't your weakness supposed to be flirting!? The heck?!
[Help: Um... flirting and teasing are different things, Mister Sen...]
The heck you mean they're different- No. Whatever. Just... roll with the punches...
??!?!?!?!
[Help: SENPAI! Stop it! I really will keep you tied up forever if you keep messing with Mister Sen!]
...I swear to god. I'm going to have a heartattack one of these days from all of this BS...
[Help: Oh! Don't worry! Your body is immune to stress!]
...
Zenki cleared his throat. "Moving on..." He set his soda aside and ced his fingers. "To summarize our current pns... your group has been established as VIMS. As for talents, we have you, Celes, and your teacher Miss Ishida on payroll. That's sufficient to debut as an idol generation. But if you'd like, we can add Yui and Hanako as idols as well. Unless you'd like them in support roles."
Ugh... I've always hated business management games... But let's see.
Ayumi-sensei was a part of our group, but she wasn't really an 'idol.'
And I didn't think it'd be a good idea to pull her in as one either...
Zenki seemed to notice my hesitation and said, "Three is the minimum for an idol group, but synergy is important too." He paused and said, "Personally, I would advise against including Miss Ishida as an idol. She's quite a bit older than you two, and her content is too different."
Right, that was the kicker here. Sensei might have become a bit more... 'extra' after I gave her that UR item, but she was still Sensei at her core.
Asking Sensei to start doing idol activities on top of her teaching was a bit much, especially since her dream was to teach, not to be famous.
Hm...
