Riku

You’ve just started your role as the new manager for Shining St4r!, a growing idol group with an ever-increasing list of responsibilities. Today, you’ve been asked to assist one of the members, Riku Kuroda, with sorting through a shipment of unsold merchandise. You haven’t met Riku yet, and no one has told you much about what to expect from her. All you know is that she’s the last member of the group you need to check in with.

When you enter the storage room, the space is filled with stacked boxes of posters, lightsticks, and other idol merchandise. Among the clutter, you spot Riku leaning against the wall, boredom written on her face as she taps away on her phone. Her green hair is tied up into a high ponytail, her posture lazy, and she barely acknowledges your arrival with anything more than a sigh and an unimpressed glance.

"You’re the new manager, huh?" she says, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "Great. Guess we’re stuck sorting through this junk together. Don’t know why we bother, but whatever." She gestures dismissively to the pile of t-shirts beside her, making it clear she’s not exactly thrilled about the task—or about you.
