The purple-haired beauty's expression was rather seductive as she said this, causing Seiji's heart to flutter slightly.
"… Sure," he agreed.
Since she was willing to create a game together with him, they would be working together from now on. It was a step up from being normal friends, so of course it was fine to call each other by their names. That was what he was thinking.
However, that wasn't what Genji was thinking.
"You can call me 'Genji Kagura' from now on as well."
"Okay."
The purple-haired girl was quite happy that she had achieved an important goal.
The two of them continued eating.
"By the way, what type of game scenario do you intend to write … Seigo?" Genji asked. This was the first time she had called him directly by his name, so her heart was beating rather quickly.
Seiji told her about the results of his discussion with Tomohisa last night.
"A trap theme … that's not bad!" Genji's eyes lit up. "I also think that this theme is quite interesting, and I'm in favor of writing such a scenario!"
"That's good, then. Do you have any specific ideas or ideas? "
"Hmm … I think that a common fake yuri is good enough, but if I were to write it myself … I'd like a more unique story."
Genji thought about it.
"We could use the classic plot of a cute boy wearing female clothes and sneaking into the school, but there are actually two boys … how about that?"
"Oh?" Seiji's eyes lit up as well. "That sounds good; could you be more specific?"
Genji thought about it some more.
"We could set them up as opponents! These two boys have the same goal, such as obtaining some sort of treasure, which is why they're wearing female clothes and sneaking into the school. They don't know each other's identities, but they know of each other's existence, so they want to find the treasure before the other, or expose the other so that the other gets kicked out of the school … something like that.
In other words, it's a suspenseful battle of wits. Hmm … that's really interesting! "
Two cute boys pretending to be girls and having a battle of wits … it was quite amusing just thinking about it.
"The story will start from the perspective of one of the traps. He disguises himself as a girl and enters the school as a new student. After entering the dormitory, he learns that a competitor has entered the school using the same method as him, and is living in the same dormitory as him! On the other hand, his competitors also know about this … "
Seiji thought about it and said it out loud.
"Among the female students living in the same dormitory, one of them is a guy like me. They have the same goal, and they are irreconcilable rivals! On one hand, I have to protect myself and do my best to perfectly disguise myself as a girl. On the other hand, I have to expose my opponent or achieve my goal before my opponent does! "
"This kind of plot … is fine! I think it's possible, and I have the urge to write it out! "
"You can set the prerequisite for obtaining the treasure as being in true love with a girl. This way, the protagonist will have to be wary of his opponents while dating a girl. Different girls will take different paths, including his opponents. In the end, the two of them will … uh …"
When Seiji thought of this, he immediately stopped.
Traps and traps on the gay route?
No!
It sounded interesting, but he was the one who created it!
It was very likely to leave an indelible psychological shadow or even mental trauma!!
Yukari chuckled when she saw how stiff he was.
"How about setting the treasure so that it can change a person's gender?" Chiaki suggested. "That way, it won't be a boy against a boy, but a boy against a girl."
"… No, that won't work." Seiji had a hard time rejecting this suggestion. "I feel like there's no point in making such a change at the end."
"But I can consider making a reversal at the end, where the protagonist thinks that the opponent is a boy, but the opponent is actually a girl, and the protagonist only misunderstands. But that … feels like it'll be too much of a scam to the players. "
Seiji did his best to consider this.
"Or, after the story progresses to a certain point, and the protagonist and his opponent get to know each other, their budding love will turn into friendship. The two of them can work together to obtain the treasure, and finally solve the hidden scheme together. Or, they can have a duel to determine who the treasure belongs to.
"This … is barely possible, and it's also quite reasonable from an emotional perspective. If the protagonist discovers that the person they're dating is actually a boy or a competitor, it's quite unlikely that they'll continue to be in love! After the two of them become conflicted, they'll turn into friendship, which is more logical. "
"I think this is fine. The players should be able to accept it," Genji agreed.
"Yep, it's decided then!"
And so, Seiji decided on the basic content of the trap … whoops, the friendship route.
"Should I choose this friendship route as a normal route from the very beginning, or should I hide it as the true ending route … I'll think about this later. First, I need to think about the entire story's background."
Seiji continued eating his lunchbox and thinking.
Genji watched him like this and felt that boys were truly handsome when they were serious. And he was already handsome to begin with, so his handsomeness was off the charts!
She felt like she was about to become an infatuated fool.
The purple-haired beauty did her best to maintain her rationality. She listened to him, talked to him, and gave her own opinions and suggestions.
Just like that, the fun time passed by.
…
Mika, Chiaki, and Kaori returned to Seiji's room.
"What Genji told me was indeed important. I promised her that I wouldn't reveal the specifics, so … I apologize. "
Seiji told the three girls honestly.
Mika and the others exchanged awkward glances with each other.
"You're calling her 'Genji Kagura,'" Chiaki said.
"Yep, our relationship has gotten a little closer." Seiji chuckled.
Mika had a complex expression.
Chiaki appeared calm on the surface.
Meanwhile, Kaori sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere and began to feel nervous.
Seiji looked at them and thought about it.
He couldn't tell them that Genji was an artist, but he could tell them about other things.
"I'm almost done writing Brother Monogatari. After that, I'll start writing a game scenario, "he said as he sat down.
"A game scenario?"
"Yep, a dating sim scenario." Seiji smiled. "Mika, do you still remember? I told you about it … "
He began chatting with them about the game, but didn't mention Genji Asamiya again.
However, Chiaki seemed to think of something and fell into deep thought.
After lunch break.
During class.
"I can roughly guess what the 'Princess' did."
Chiaki said to Mika while Seiji was going to the restroom.
"What?"
"After Seigo returned to our class, he suddenly started talking about the game. I think that he was probably talking about this with Genji Asamiya. "Something flashed in the tomboy's eyes.
"Creating a dating sim game requires manpower."
Seiji said that his friend would be working on the programming, and he would be writing the scenario. So, the remaining jobs would be the artist and voice actor … probably.
I'm going to boldly speculate that Genji Asamiya probably joined this game team and became the game's artist or voice actor!
As for why she wanted to keep it a secret — and why Seiji agreed to keep it a secret even from us — it's probably because … "
"She's an artist! An artist who knows how to draw colorful pictures! "
"The pictures of the galactic games have the kind of pictures with high restrictions. Genji Asamiya is actually an ero artist who knows how to draw colorful pictures! She wanted to keep it a secret in order to avoid being looked at in a strange way — that makes sense! "
Chiaki posed like a famous detective with an expression that said, "I've figured out the truth."
Mika was stunned.
