Surprise Morning

Aaaand we’re rolling! Hello, hi, and howdy, citizens of Earth!

You’re about to witness the craziest wake-up attack ever!!

Why would you want to attack someone while they’re asleep?

Tsk-tsk-tsk. It’s not a real attack. The prez told me to film a documentary on how Ev3ns was formed.

And since they’re idols, we gotta do a wake-up prank. Sooooo, let’s go, come on, boys!

…Are you…sure?

*sigh* Alright, whatever. So… Natsuyaki-san and Kinouchi-san are in one room…

Hm… Then that leaves Raito-san, Azekawa-san, and Domeki-san to be in another.

I know they’re idols, but are you sure it’s legal to record them without consent? I mean, whatever, just don’t get me in the video. I don’t wanna be questioned in case the cops use it as evidence.

‘Kay, we gotta open the door reaaaal quiet. We’re gonna wake ‘em up after we get them on camera. Oooopen…seeeesame…!

WHUHHHH?! Why aren’t you guys sleeping?!

Oh, it’s the Noon Team! What’s up?

What’s up with you? Why are you up playing games?

Oh, a full-dive FPS game? You guys playing duo matches?

It’s Chii’s fave game. When I taught Taotao how to play it, he got even more into it than I am!

It’s, like, our second all-nighter in a row playing it. Taotao’s, like, super good at it! His aim’s literally insane.

Let’s go for another round, Chihiro.

‘Kay-’kaaaay! Sorry guys, we’re gonna keep playing. We can talk later at breakfast!

I understand. We apologize for the intrusion.

Man, that suuuucks! We couldn’t even do our wake-up prank!

Kinouchi-san was really focused on the game. It was like he was a completely different person. He must be a big gamer.

At least we didn’t get involved in a crime. So now what? You gonna try again?

‘Course I am! If at first you don’t fail, try again! Next room!

The correct phrase is “If at first you don’t succeed, try again.”

Make way for the boogeymen. Our target is this room…!

Kiroku! Rip Raito-san’s blanket right offa him!

*sigh…* E-Excuse…m⁠—

Ugh, urhghg…!

Woah! He got him in a joint lock as soon as he woke up! You don’t see this kinda stuff every day, folks…!

Hmrmmm… The fuck you want…? Mrhmmmm…

I-Is he doing martial arts in his sleep?!

The lock was executed beautifully, but he’s starting to choke him out. I’ll help you, Kinugawa.

I’ll try this bed. Okay, caaaareful… Wah!

GYAH! Nanaki got pulled under the blankets!

How very naughty of you… You know what happens to bad boys who try to sneak into other’s sleeping chambers, yes?

Hm…? Oh, good morning. Kuguri, stop that. They’re still teenagers.

H-He let go… *wheeze…*

Perhaps I should show you innocent boys the sweet taste of poison…

Wahwahwah… This is turning R-rated real fast!

Morning, Kugu-nii. I missed you.

Nanaki. I forgot you lived here as well.

Haha. You always smell so nice, Kugu-nii.

…You…know each…other?

Hm, our documentary has turned into a cute and heartwarming animal video.

*sigh* We’re gonna be done with this stupid thing after we wake up the last guy, right? I’m sick of this, so I’ll just do it.

……

Huh?! A charging cord?! It’s attached to him!

Charging cords are quite ret these days, aren’t they? Kinari’s actually an android.

Oh, but make sure not to tell anyone else about that.

I know you’re all very well-behaved, so I trust you to keep it a secret. I don’t want Nayuki to get mad at me, after all.

…Powering on. Charging completed. Several organisms detected nearby.

What is the matter?

He’s…an android…? Maybe we shouldn’t have woken him up…

Uh, hey, are you alright? Should we call tech support…?

…?
