[Greetings, everyone. Not that you can expect many greetings right now, since for some reason there is a crying teenage girl being shown on video.]

I... I lost?! To a snowman?! How could I lose to a snowman of all things?! They can't even breathe!

[Yes, this is clearly the most terrible thing that could ever happen, for she is bawling.]

You shouldn't underestimate snowmen.

[ it was an honorable loss... or something. ]

[ oh. well that impressive of a pitch deserves some applause. ]

And you're in that family? No wonder you're so strong.. [ he wonders why he's never heard of the temple before, but oh well. ] And everyone in your family is as strong you are?

[You've never heard of it because it's such a singularity of badassery that it can only exist in worlds where the Hokuto no Ken cast would be at home.]

Stronger! Way stronger! I'm the weakest of the bunch. I have to push myself to the absolute limits just to keep up! My big sister in particular is the best there is! She gets complaints from NASA whenever she starts going all out in her fighting!

[Once again, very proud, and very, very serious.]

[ where people play tetris with human bodies. ]

The weakest? [ that's hard to believe. ] N, NASA... You mean, she's so strong the effects are felt even in space...?

[ ...she's gotta be pulling his leg now. ]

[While they're still conscious.]

Yep! She really shines when she's fighting! So NASA calls us whenever they see a new comet, to verify it wasn't just the Kawakami Star Destroyer again!

[...Yeah, she might be lying, but she sure doesn't look like it. At the very least, she seems to believe it.]

[ so cruel. ]

...you're making this up.

[ he thinks. he hopes. can people really be that strong? it sounds like something out of manga... ]

[Well, that's why we pay the hospital bills.]

Hm? Why would I be making this up? She was really proud when she figured out how to do it.

[If it's any comfort, Momoyo probably invented it from a manga? But yeah, Kazuko was chosen because she's an actual badass normal, and only slightly breaks the laws of physics just by existing.]

She can really turn people into comets...?

[ and another thought crosses his mind... ]

Your sister isn't here, is she?

[ on one hand, he kind of wants to see this fabled strength. on the other... it's kind of terrifying. ]

I don't think she's here. She kind of stands out, after all. I can't imagine that she wouldn't be on the network hitting on all the women and challenging anyone that seems strong to a fight.

[Momoyo Kawakami: Japan's nuclear warhead, the most dangerous person alive, obsessed with fighting... and hitting on every attractive female she sees.]

She's really sounds like quite the character. And you want to be more like her...?

video;

[dog_in_training]

Nah, I just want to be her support. It'd be nice if I could shine like her, too.

I'm sure you can. Maybe just in a different way.
