Ch. 49 - My EP, Future Album, and other events Pt. 9
We went into the Shinkawa office. The 1st independent office of this building.
Messy, but I like it. It's quiet, the atmosphere feels cozy, and...it's just hard to describe the feeling I'm getting.
This one:

Yagoo also told us their names.
He also said that Aqua, Subaru, and Pekora get to have breaks from Saturday to Sunday.
"We are here now." Yagoo said.
The others stood up and bowed.
"Tanigo-san, are they the ones that're gonna represent for the advertisement?" Karasuya Sabou said.
"Only these girls."
Sabou looked at me.
"Is this Yamada-san?"
Yagoo nodded.
"Why's he here if these girls are gonna represent?"
"He's gonna be a 2nd advertiser. He'll be making an unofficial advertisement."
"What? An unofficial advertisement?"
He then looked at me.
"Yamada-san, are you planning to monetize yours though?"
"No. I'm just planning to be the unofficial advertiser, so I'm not expecting monetization, nor a reward for advertising it. Besides..."
I held the back of my head.
"I'm actually gonna be using an instrumental, which is why I said I'll be unofficial. It's just to get people attracted to the product."
Everybody looked at me weirdly, except for Yagoo.
"And that's exactly why you're the unofficial advertiser." Yagoo giggled.
"W-Well...mind if I get started with the girls? I have made up the chorus, but the verses...I'm gonna need to write more."
The girls nodded.
"Well, I'll leave you all to your devices. If you need some extra help, you know who to go to. Yamada, go to Shinozaki Ayato for the instrumental. He's there on the laptop. You all can go home once it reaches 11:00 PM. Remember that the deadline is October 11!" Yagoo said as he walked away.
We nodded.
This kinda feels weird, but I mean, I like working with artists. It's a nice feeling. But if it was Joji, and other artists I absolutely love, I'd lose my shit internally. This, I'm kinda nervous, but I gotta be confident.
"Girls, let's get to composing!" Sabou said.
"Hai!" Subaru said.
"H-Hai..."
"Of course. Pekora and Aqua are still socially awkward except for the Hololive members." I sweat dropped.
They then sat beside him, and he showed them lyrics.
I walked up to Ayato, and sat beside him.
"Ayato-san, are you busy currently?"
"Not really. We can get to the instrumental. Here, I'll give you control."
I then searched for an instrumental of Ramen King. While I was searching, I heard the girls sing the chorus of the song.
"Curry 2x! Curry 2x! Curry Meshi de show! (Hai 2x!)"
It suddenly just stuck in my brain. I even hummed it.
"Well, fuck. I can't think properly now, can I? I was even thinking of lyrics in my head, and now, it's a mess."
That's just kinda moe.
I then showed him the instrumental.
"Here it is."
He then saw it.
"Okay, I'll download this, and we'll...do some structuring, like loops and stuff."
"Well...I wasn't thinking of making a fully-fledged song."
"Eh? What do you mean?"
"I was thinking of doing a verse, and that's it."
"...Are you sure that's gonna work?"
"I'm very sure. 100% will work."
He shrugged.
"Well, if you say so. This is your decision. I'm sure you thought it all up."
"Yep."
I mean...who doesn't love Filthy Frank? People would reminisce at the old times when this drops.
"By the way...do I have to cut the start?" Ayato asked.
"Yeah. I'm planning to have a different intro. By the way, when we arrange this, I'd like to lower the lows of the song. The kick's kinda...peaking. I'd like to lower it a bit to make sure the levels are good."
"Got it."
He then downloaded it, the others took care of their business, and we took care of mine.
"Alright...wanna start writing now? I can wait for 20 minutes, and then I can start arranging."
"Yup...does that mean I get to write on a notepad here?"
"Yes. You're in control, Yamada-san. You can choose to write here, or on your phone. Your choice."
"Arigatou-gozaimasu, Ayato-san."
I then started writing.
After I was getting some writer's block, because of that goddang catchy chorus, I kinda heard the girls' conversation with Sabou.
"Ne, Sabou-san. We never heard the instrumental. Can we listen to it?"
"Sure. Here it is. It's still incomplete, but it's close to the final product."
Sabou stood up.
"Are you guys okay there?"
We nodded.
"We're fine." I said.
"No, I'm not fine. I might get distracted, but eh, I mean, I did this before with loud ass music, so I think I can handle it."
When their instrumental started blasting, I started to have duality in my brain.
On one part of my brain, I'm thinking of the Ramen King beat, and on the other, I'm thinking of their instrumental. Not gonna lie, it's kinda catchy. My Ramen King side though is fighting, so I can still write with the beat in my head.
After about a total of 13 minutes, I finally made the whole song.
I then started rapping it quietly.
After rapping it while imagining the beat in my mind, I thought it was perfect enough.
"Okay, I'm done, Ayato-san. Can I take a quick pic of this though? Just in case I forget the lyrics."
I took my phone out, and went to camera.
"Yes, you can."
I then pictured it, and I put my phone back.
"Alright, thank you, Ayato-san."
"You're welcome."
I then stood up, and checked the girls.
They're kinda having fun, showing each others' lyrics, and coming up with melodies.
"They're having fun..."
Ayato stood up.
"Yamada-san, do you want to record this in advance?"
"Yeah. I'd like to have this as a background track, so that when it finally gets edited, the video will be done."
"Sweet."
He looked at Sabou.
"Sabou-san! We'll be going ahead to record Yamada-san's part in advance!"
"Hai!"
We then went to the recording studio, and I recorded it.
Here's the instrumental:
https://youtu.be/vVO_ye0fnrE
Intro:
"Ah. Ohayou-gozaimasu."
"Kyou wa, currae rice o tsukurimasu."
"Tanoshii desu ne."
"Ja, hajimemashou."
Verse:
"Yah...~"
"I consume these cup curries. Slurp it like a vacuum cleaner.~"
"Buy this cup curry from the store. Heat the water heater.~"
"Then I smell the sweet aroma that arises.~"
"The taste of Curry Meshi's too nice to describe it.~"
"If you got no money, but you want some curry, I got something for ya, buddy.~"
"Put a little hot water in the cup, let it boil for 5 minutes.~"
"Then peel the cup's top. Now, you can finally dig in.~"
"If you wanna make it in life, and really wanna survive, then get yourselves the Curry Meshi advertised by Hololive!~"
"It's so simple, and can really fill you very nice. Only above 200 yen for a cup of curry rice!~"
"Better get it fast while it lasts before it's out of stock.~"
"Cause this cup of Curry Meshi's probably around your block.~"
"(Heh) Or you can buy it online, click the link in the description, then you can buy yourself one in the official website.~"
"And I'm talkin' 'bout curry.~"
"I'm telling you, this stuff will fill you up when you're in a hurry.~"
"Come back when you got the curry ready.~"
"And say hi to my home boy Nissin Curry Meshi.~"
We were done, and he let me control it again. I cut out the intro part, and mixed everything.
The song was done, and all that's left is recording the 3D, but I can work on that soon enough.
"Arigatou-gozaimasu, Ayato-san."
"Don't mention it, Yamada-san."
We then went back, and we saw them still writing lyrics.
"Hey, Sabou-san, girls."
"Hey."
"Man, if only we had Yamada's mind! I'm still thinking of lyrics-peko!"
"Sabou-san, got some lyrics?" I asked.
"Yeah, but I'm thinking of something better."
I giggled.
"Well...the deadline is still far, right?" I asked.
They nodded.
"Well, October 11 is still far away. It's more than a month. I'm sure we can come up with something later on. Want me to help composing?"
"Well...would that bother you, Yamada?" Aqua asked.
"Nope."
"You sure about the decision?" Sabou asked.
"I mean, doesn't that tire you, Yamada-san?" Ayato said as he sits down, and lays down his laptop on his side.
"It's fine. I mean, we got a couple of minutes left before 11:00 PM, so we can make the most of our time here before 11. I'm fine with composing along with you all."
"Yamada..." The girls said.
"Doki doki, ey girls?"
"Well, if you say so, I guess you can help us too." Sabou said.
We then started composing.
We tried getting ideas, thinking about stuff for the Curry Meshi.
After a while, we got most of the song complete. Not all, since the girls are clearly sleepy. They've been yawning a bit more as the time approached 11:00 PM, so once we were done with most of the songs, we said our goodbyes with Ayato and Sabou.
We then made our way to the elevator.
"Girls, I just thought this right now." I giggled.
"What is it?" Subaru asked.
"You know how I made claws my main weapon now?"
They nodded.
"Have you all watched X-men? At least a few movies?" I asked.
"A bit." They all said.
"Like Nightcrawler-peko?"
I nodded.
"If I combine the X-men, I can be a teleporting Wolverine that can manipulate metal, shape shift, be super speedy, shoot lasers with my eyes, and can do telekinesis and telepathy..."
I looked at my hands, and laughed at the absurdness.
"I just became the most OP person on the planet. Did you all notice that?"
"You're already OP the moment your gift became 'Copy' or whatever you called it." They said.
I giggled.
"Well, I still have a small LF pool. It's 65 now. I gotta get this to at least 100, and I can do all those for a short while."
We went into the elevator.
"Time to go down to the 1st floor." I said.
I then did so.
"Girls, you still good?"
They nodded.
"Though, I do want to lean on something for a while." Aqua said as she leaned and clinged on my right arm.
"Yeah, I want to lean on something." Subaru said as she clinged on my left arm.
"I feel onion and duck boobs. I got boin boins on my right, and medium = premium on my left."
"Yamada, I'm sorry, but I want to lean on something." Pekora said as she leaned on my back.
"And I got an usagi's back on my back. This would be a pervert's dream."
I smiled.
I wanted to tease them.
"Love you girls."
I know they're blushing.
"Love you too, Yamada."
"Oh? You can finally resist those attacks, girls?" I giggled.
How cute.
The relationships with these girls have gone a long frickin' way.
We went to the first floor, and walked together outside.
We called for taxis. Aqua went first, then Subaru, and finally Pekora.
After they went, I looked around to see a few people, which would be problematic, so I went inside the building, went to the bathroom, and made a portal to my house.
I then took my clothes off, leaving my boxers, and I slept. Well...technically.
"...Wait a fuckin' minute...!"
I grabbed my phone frantically, and checked Botan's birthday.
"I fucking knew it..."
Another birthday I'm late to. I absolutely should not be late for the next one.
"YAMADA-SENSEI!!!!!HELP ME!!!!"
"Welp, I suspected you will find out later on. I'm angry that I'm woken up while I was sleeping, but eh, let's get this finished quickly."
"THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!"
Why do I keep forgetting?
I then put my clothes back on quickly, Yamada-sensei made a portal on my door, I entered it, and me and Yamada-sensei started making earrings for her. It was silver, and the gem on it was black spinel.
After making it for 5 minutes, Yamada-sensei shared his memory to me about Botan's apartment, and I made a portal to her house.
She was still awake. She was lying on her bed with her phone.
She instantly put her phone down, and activated her gift.
"Woah, it's me, Botan."
"Y-Yamada-senpai?"
She deactivated her gift.
"Yes, it's me. I'm sorry I'm late to your birthday. I just seem to be forgetful at times, mostly because I don't check dates."
Like really, it depends on what the events are, and for something like this, I either remember it, or I don't. I'm sorry, Botan. Really.
"It's okay, though. I'm contented with what I have." Botan said.
"Here. I made a gift for you. I hope you're good with this. I'm very sorry, Botan."
I sat beside her.
"No 2x. Any gift from you is fine."
I gave her the earrings.
"This is beautiful." She said.
She put on the earrings, since her earrings are put somewhere where I don't know.
"What is this for?"
"It gives you more control on your gift. You can get angry easily, at the same time, you can turn back to normal easily."
"I see, so it's a control item. Thanks a lot, Yamada-senpai!"
She hugged me.
"Woah! Okay."
I hugged her back, and tapped her back twice after 5 seconds.
"Is that all you came here for?"
"Yeah...sorry. I was kinda caught up with a lot of stuff."
"It's okay. I'm actually very happy you came here, and even more happy that you gave me this. I'll treasure this forever, Yamada-senpai."
"I'm glad you like the gift."
I stood up.
"Sorry, Botan, but I gotta go. I'll see you later."
I then made a portal to my house, took my clothes off, and I finally slept.
"Goodnight, Botan."
I still feel guilty, but at least that's resolved.
"Man, I'm a bit of a terrible boyfriend if that's the case."
Fuck it though, forget about it. It'll just build up stress. Just be happy Botan got it, Yamada.
Botan's POV
I took my earrings off, and admired it.
"Yamada-senpai..."
I smiled.
"Thanks a lot."
And this is why he's my boyfriend. I don't think any man can be more fitting to be my lover other than him.
"Except for when we fight." I giggled nervously.
It's usually over ridiculous topics, but it helps to know what we can agree on, and what we disagree on, and figure out the next steps.
I put it close to me by putting it on the drawer near my bed.
"Goodnight, Yamada-senpai."
I then put my phone aside, and slept.
Sept 09, 2020 4:00 AM
Yamada-sensei's POV
I was having a dream. It was the root universe.
If you want a bit more detail of what happened, you can read the chapter of "Who's Yamada?" in my alternate universes book.
While I was dreaming, I didn't notice I was moving a lot. I was still deep asleep.
Sora-sensei's POV
I was at Yamada's right, and AZKi was at his left.
We noticed some movement on the bed, and thought maybe he's having sex or something, but when we opened our eyes, we saw Yamada sweating, and moving around uncomfortably.
"AZKi! Help me wake him up!"
She nodded.
We shook him.
"Yamada! Yamada, what's wrong?!" I said.
"Yamada! Snap out of the dream!"
After about 10 seconds of waking him up, he woke up with his demon eyes, breathed heavily, looked around a lot, and activated "Lion King".
He then deactivated his gifts and calmed down after realizing it was a dream.
"Hey, what happened...?" AZKi asked.
"Did something very bad happen in the dream?" I asked.
Yamada then got rid of the blanket, and quickly went to dress up.
"What did you see in your dream?" I asked.
"I dreamed that Mr. Weeaboo messed with the universes, but not just any universe you can pick. It's really gonna change everything, even our universe."
"What is it?" Me and AZKi asked.
"...The root universe."
We widened our eyes, and we trembled in dread.
"...The one with the virus?" I asked.
"The one where you don't exist at all, and all universes come from the original root universe?" AZKi asked.
Yamada nodded.
Yamada-sensei's POV
"Now I don't know when it's gonna happen, nor do I know if that's actually what's gonna happen, but I do know for a fact that whatever it is, Mr. Weeaboo will absolutely fuck with the root universe, one way or another, and if that happens, all the universes will have irreversible disturbances, and big ones at that."
Imagine that...a timeline where Amelia did stuff with that GN person, and she kept rewinding time to stop that killer, Aki from that one universe where he made Calli his GF, that one NEET that was reincarnated, and had Fubuki as his sister, Mitsu from that one universe where he's a dense mf, but got the girls wrapped around his finger, Gura and that guy that studies sharks, and other universes, and at worst, the root universe where there's corona...everything will change, and it's not pretty.
Wanna know one consequence? Let's say Rushia from the root universe dies. If she died, there'll be unexplainable deaths of Rushias from other universes. If Rushia died in a car accident, the other Rushias will get into unrealistic car accidents at the same time, no matter where they are. If a Rushia was at an apartment, a flying car will crash, and kill that Rushia. That's just ONE of the consequences. There are more ways it could happen, and more possibilities, but that's one of them.
"Calm down, girls. Okay? I'll handle this."
"But, what if this'll take even a year?" Sora asked.
"I don't care, as long as the universes are safe. I can't risk the universes getting fucked. Remember, it's not just the future Yamadas, and our past sensei's goals, it's for the sake of the equilibrium, and to keep finding a way to be a part of the universes officially. Once the root universe is messed with, even ours will be affected."
They then frowned.
"Should we help?"
"No. Don't worry, I'll come and go in this universe when I need to stream, take care of the kids, and do stuff, but most of my time will now be spent monitoring young Yamada's universe, and when it happens, that's when all of us have to do a Hololive: Infinity War."
We giggled.
"It's not the time for jokes, Yamada." Sora giggled.
"Yamada, remember, the universes are at stake." AZKi giggled.
"Sorry. I just had to."
I then put on my robe.
"Come here, you two." I said.
They then hugged me, and I kissed their heads while rubbing their backs..
"I love you so much. Tell the others I love them too, but for the boys, no homo. I'll come when there's something I need to do. Remember to use the necklace when you need something."
They were still in their undies, so I get a few seconds for my eyes to feast on those nice things before I went, since we did a threesome last night after me and young Yamada made a gift for young Botan.
I then opened the door, and I teleported to the 1st floor of my gigantic mansion.
I then went out, and closed the door. I summoned a clone inside to lock the door, and then disappear once he's done with it.
I sighed.
"I love you, my family..."
Boys, girls, kids, my dad and mom, Aoi, Lola Hana, Masato, Yua, and everybody else I know and love in this universe.
"This shit right now is something that has never happened to any of the Yamadas until recently. This is interesting, but very YA BE if it goes wrong."
I then turned to the outside world.
"Well then, young Mr. Weeaboo...let's see what you're planning to do."
I then teleported to young Yamada's world, I drank coffee I just materialized, and after that, I watched from the rooftops, just surveying Japan, seeing if anything's out-of-the-ordinary. I also summoned clones of mine around the city with an invisible barrier on them, and I checked their eyes once in a while.
In case you're wondering, no, I somehow cannot read Mr. Weeaboo's thoughts. I think he implanted aluminum foil, or copper in his head, and covered it. I did notice I was only able to read his thoughts if I saw him, but indirectly, I can't.
Sept 09, 2020 7:30 AM
Yamada's POV
I woke up to my alarm. It was my BGM.
I stopped it, and I waited for 1 minute, and then sat up.
I then held my head.
"That was a weird dream."
I dreamed that Mr. Weeaboo and I fought, but I didn't know what reason.
"Well, I gotta eat breakfast, and then shower."
I then went downstairs, and took breakfast. It's scrambled eggs, hotdog, and bread with peanut butter.
I then took a shower, and thought as to what I could stream, just for a miscellaneous stream.
"I guess I can try Super Smash Bros. Ultimate on the switch."
Like damn, I remember the times I played with dad on the N64. He'd beat my ass most of the time, but as I got better, we started having a back and forth record. I remember one time I accidentally made a good ass combo, and I won against him. We both were pogged, and then my dad had to embarrass me in front of Masato and Yua by hugging me tight, and praised me, but eh, that's my dad.
I giggled.
"I wish I could rewind time and relive those days."
Though, that's gonna take a lot of LF, and nah, I'm contented with what I have right now.
"Still...why didn't I get the Switch years ago?"
I mean, I could've played loads of games, and have fun, but eh, at least I got this. I think it's because I didn't expect to stream.
I then finished taking a shower, and tweeted that I'll be playing Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in the Switch.
"Madoshis! I'll be playing Super Smash Bros. Ultimate in the switch at 4:00 PM! I'm expecting a lot of losses for me, so F.
Hope you all are looking forward to me losing!"
I then saw a lot of replies just putting "F".
"Is it another one of these things he does where he claims he's bad, and the next thing we know, he's the next Isai?"
I then opened the replies.
"Ah shit, before we know it, it's like one of those N64 smash combo contests."
"Bet money if he goes against any of the Hololivers, he'll make a combo that can make even the best smash players go pog."
"Before we know it, our ears are busted cuz of Rushia."
"Ah, shi-"
"All we need is Yamada and Pekora to fight, and we can get satisfaction."
"Rushia busted our ears, but we can still hear the war criminal's whining as Yamada giggles sinisterly. Now that's bliss. A small price for a big reward."
"Bruh, he has Filipino blood. Don't forget he's good at trashtalking."
"Yamada: HAH! WHAT A LOSER!"
I giggled as I saw the replies.
I then actually went, and searched some tutorials on Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Who knows? It's probably different from the Wii U.
I then searched up Cloud Strife. Apparently, he's nerfed somehow. Doesn't make an excuse I might test him out though.
I also searched the others, like Donkey Kong, Pikachu, Snake, Ness, and other characters I used to play. I was a Cloud main before, mainly cause I like Cloud. Now, I don't actually know who I'm gonna make my main as, but eh, I'll try Cloud.
After watching a lot of tutorials, and stuff, my alarm set off. It was 9:55 AM.
"Hmm, I gotta go with Calli now."
I dressed up quickly. I got a dark blue shirt, white pants, and black and white nike shoes.
I put in the discord server, "Girls, I ain't going on dates right now. I'm gonna hang out with Calli. Bye, girls."
"P.S. No, she's not my most recent girlfriend. She just wanted to work on something with me."
I then made a portal nearby the park in an alleyway.
"Ohayou-gozaimasu, alleyway-kun." I said.
I then went to the park, and waited for Calli.
After a while, I saw a pinkette girl looking around frantically as she was looking for someone.
I sighed.
"Miscommunication, ey?"
I then ran towards there, and she saw me.
"Yamada-senpai!"
"Welp, should've also planned where we would meet up in the park, but eh."
Calli giggled nervously.
I looked at her from bottom to top.
"DAMN! SHE'S FINE AS FUCK."
Kiara is a lucky chicken.
Just imagine Calli is the only one in the pic. Snipping tool might probably be a bit constricting, if you know what I mean.
Like literally, what the fuck? I expected an emo girl outfit. I got a moe reaper in front of me.
My kouhais always seem to surprise me. I don't know why. And I just remembered this cute little pinkette was the one that almost killed me the other day. You just gotta love tsunderes, right?
"Bad thang.~ Fine as hell.~ Thicc as fuck.~ Oh my god, that's my baby.~ Caroline, my divine.~ Mighty fine.~ Shawty really blow the pipe-okay, she doesn't suck my dick, but you know...lyrics."
I saw what was on her hand. It was a big notebook. It was black, and had a couple of stickers on it.
"Huh. Even though you're kinda emo, you have quite cute stickers."
She blushed.
"I'm not cute!"
"I said your stickers are cute, not you. You want me to call you cute?" I teased.
"Do that, and I'll...maim you."
I giggled.
I thought this exact meme in my head.
Not necessarily, but since I do know that Kiara can revive now, I just need her eyes, and I can really revive by myself without Rushia's help. For now, if I die, I really die, unless Yamada-sensei chooses to revive me again. I already died once, and I don't like it.
I wonder how I really forgot that Kiara can revive. She's a pheonix, yet I forgot that phoenixes revive after they die. Me is dum dum.
"So you write lyrics on paper than type it?" I asked.
She nodded.
"I kinda find it funny. You say I'm kinda emo, but you yourself are also emo."
"Well, that was the past me, but I'm guessing you're referring to 'I'm Antisocial?'"
She nodded.
"To think though that you're good at socializing, despite making that song."
"Not really. Even today, I hate socializing with shitty people."
"Gotta agree."
We giggled.
"Let's sit down, shall we?" I asked.
"Oh sure. I forgot."
We then sat down.
"Here, my earphones."
She gave me her right earbud, and I sat on her left, so we have a lot of freedom to move around, and not that cliche "Oh look, they're a couple, cause their closing each other with the earphones".
I then looked at the lyrics.
"Can you hear me properly?" Calli asked.
I nodded.
"Well, mind if I start rapping?"
I then thought up something.
"Say, how loud do you actually rap?" I asked.
"I'm normal. You?"
"Normal too..."
I giggled.
I got rid of the earphone.
"Wanna take this up there?" I pointed to the sky.
"Wait...you mean in the rooftops?" She then put the earphones in her pocket.
I nodded.
"C'mon! It'll be fun! And it's breezy. Trust me. It can really refresh you, and writer's block is minimized."
Calli then thought up a bit.
"Will the notebook fly away?" Calli asked.
"Nope. I can always catch it, and plus, I can make it so that the notebook won't fly away by making it a bit heavier. So?"
She then thought about it, and smiled.
"Sure. If you say so, then I'll leave it up to you, Yamada-senpai, but just remember if any accidents happen, it's not my fault."
"Yeah 2x. I'm fully responsible for this decision."
I then teleported us to the top of the Yokohama Landmark Tower.
We felt wind, and she held her notebook.
"See? It's quite breezy, and we can rap as loud as we want!" I shouted.
She giggled.
"Honestly, I'm kinda liking it!" She said.
I made her notebook a bit heavier.
"Can you carry it with no problem?"
She nodded.
"I'm strong, so don't worry."
We then sat at the edge, and looked at everything down there.
We started talking normally.
"So? How're you liking it?"
"I love it! Though, I'll admit...."
She then clinged to my left arm.
"I'm a bit afraid of heights."
I blushed.
I then realized something.
"Say, I didn't think it through. Will your top be okay?"
"Yup. I'm wearing something underneath, so I'm not wearing a bra, actually. My chest is safe."
She then blushed as she thought back to what she said.
"You're not planning to assault me here, are you? Maybe that's why you brought me up here!"
"I WOULDN'T DO THAT!"
I sighed.
"Well, wanna start writing now?"
She nodded.
We put on the earphones, and I listened to her lyrics, and how it goes with the instrumental. She's actually got funny lyrics there.
I listened to the last part of her 1st verse, and I was pogged.
"'Slip your soul into my pocket, then I flee the scene. It's like that!' That's lowkey hard."
Damn, shinigami at your service, motherfuckers.
I listened to everything else, and stopped the instrumental when it reached the 2nd verse.
I also noticed there were some eye bags...is she really pushing herself a bit hard? I hope not.
"I didn't finish my 2nd verse, actually. I got some lyrics, but I think I'm gonna need to work on it."
"Want me to help?"
"No. I think I'll work on this myself. You know, to...convey my own message."
"Ah, I see what you mean."
My ideas are my ideas, and her ideas are hers, so if write my lyrics on her part, it's kinda conflicting. Makes sense.
"By the way, Calli..."
"Yeah?"
"What're your tags for your fanbase, streams, and all that?" I asked.
"Well, let's start with the streams."
She said the tags, and she then ended it with the fanbase tag.
"This is a funny story...I have 2 tags in mind. I came up with Calliopeople, at first, but after writing for a while, and thinking of some clever punchlines and wordplay, I came up with Deadbeats! Get it? Deadbeats? Cause I'm a reaper, and dead beat people are technically braindead?"
We laughed at it.
That then gave me a light bulb after 5 seconds of thinking.
"Got it. I got all the information I need to write my verse. Thanks, Calli."
I summoned a piece of paper and a pen.
"H-Huh? Really?"
"Yes. In just a few seconds, I already thought most of my verse."
I realized something.
"Should I do the pre-chorus as well?"
"You can, but if you don't want to, I can fill it up for you. Depends on your choice."
"Then I shall make my own pre-chorus, since the chorus is really just the same."
"Do you want to sing the chorus on your part?"
"Yeah, unless we have to sing it together."
"Hmm...we'll figure it out later. Let's write the bars first, and then we can arrange it later."
"Yup. By the way...the central theme is death, right?"
She nodded.
I chuckled.
"Then I can go violent with the lyrics if I want to." I giggled sinisterly.
"That's kinda scary, honestly. Even for a reaper like me." Calli sweat dropped.
I then started writing. It took about 15-20 minutes, thinking about stuff and looking at Calli's lyrics for inspiration. I came up with this for now. I got way too much shit in my brain, that I'm in a dilemma.
Verse:
"*cough* time to introduce myself. I'm-~"
"-Shirazaki Yamada. Go and scream for help!~"
"Nice guy attitude. Killer on the dead beats."
"You hate, rap, comment like a bunch of fucking dead beats.~"
"You're a fucking V-cube, I'm a Dayan Zhanchi."
"Go get me a blindfold. *sigh* it's still easy."
"Lightning speed, smooth like a Gan 356 XS. Expensive but high quality."
"People say that they the best, but they don't even have the proof.~"
"And I may not be the best, but I got lots of shit to prove.~"
"If I am the ruler, then you gotta play by my rules.~"
"Better raise the bars. You never made it into high school.~"
(cause you freestyle like a lunchroom) - Alternative line
"Too much fuckin' noise, might as well be a crowd.~"
"You're loud. You're annoying. I'm boisterous like a cloud.~"
"A fantasy that's ruthless. Fantasy that's lucid.~"
"Slashing the stupid. Untalented included.(Whoo!)~"
Pre-chorus:
"If you take my advice, you'll be killed by what'cha don't know.~"
"And I'm keeping both my eyes on you. Just so you know-~"
"You ain't safe, even in the basement. Oh boo hoo!~"
"I'm a mage but I could maim your body, hang your bloody-~"
"coat. Drink your blood like coffee. Chop your neck like it's Karate, and I-~"
("I'm a mage but I could maim your body, hang your bloody-~"
"coat. Drink your blood like coffee, bro. Swing your body back and forth.~") - Alternative line
"Hope it's not too much, do me and favor and die?"
"Gomen, shitsureshimasu ga shindekusai♥~"
This is seriously not final, since I still got alternatives.
I sighed.
"Well, that's that."
I laid down the paper.
"Calli!"
I went up to her. She was lying on her back as she wrote on her notebook.
She sat up, and looked at me.
"What?"
"I made my own verse. Mind keeping it there on your notebook for a while?"
She nodded.
"Can I take a look at it though?"
"Sure."
She then checked it.
She looked at the lyrics.
"Huh, basic intro...okay, that's kinda funny." She giggled.
"The dead beats part?"
"Nice guy attitude, true. Killer on the dead beats...is this a double entendre?"
"A triple, if you think about it."
Dead beats - Calli's fanbase
Dead beats - Dead beats, as in dead instrumentals, cause I bodied (murdered) the beat with my lyrics.
Dead beats - Haters
She started smiling like crazy.
"This is exactly why I look up to you. Haters, my fanbase, and bodied beats."
She started fangirling a bit.
I giggled at how she's going crazy.
She then cleared her throat.
"Carrying on...this one is simple. Just a line...unless it's a double entendre."
"Well, it can be towards haters, and it can also be towards rappers that are technically braindead."
We giggled.
"Okay, that works."
She continued looking at my lyrics.
She rose her left eyebrow.
"Okay, is this a reference to Rubik's cubes?"
"Yes. Before, there was some discussion about Dayan Zhanchi, and V-cube. V-cube was kinda hated by some cubers, and Dayan Zhanchi was not only popular, but was very good. Trust me, I didn't really like the V-cube 3 cause of my way of handling cubes, but I loved the Dayan Zhanchi cubes. This blindfold part, you can think of it as a metaphor. Too easy. Gan 356 XS is actually my main and favorite cube right now. I don't care what people say, but it's so smooth, very fast, and I was thinking of flexing a bit here."
I pointed at the "Expensive, but high quality" line.
We were very close now. Dammit, Kiara, please don't kill me, it's unintentional.
I blushed a bit, but ignored it after a while.
"Expensive, like gold bars, and stuff, and high quality, cause I'm not just a simple 'lyrical spiritual individual.'" I said in a dumb voice.
We laughed.
She read the lines.
"Okay, I love this part too. People say that they're the best, but they don't have the proof, and you're not the best, but you got a lot to prove." Calli said.
We giggled.
"I mean, face it. 'I'm the best' but what do you have to support your claim, right?"
"True. Lil Pump be damned, but he doesn't care. He just 'having fun with what he does.'" Calli said in a dumb voice.
We laughed.
"This one...did you just call the lines of a ruler a 'bar'?"
"Yes, I did." I giggled.
"This is a double entendre...you're the ruler, and play by your rules, but also cause you're comparing yourself to a ruler, then the bars need to be raised, both your lyrics, and the measurements, and to finish off...you have 2 lines here?"
I nodded.
"I don't know. I'm kinda liking 'You never made it into high school' cause raise the bars, and you go from elementary to high school, and you can use that as a metaphor for comparing rappers. Rappers that are at shitty level cannot rise up to fame if they cannot raise the bars, but for this alternative line, it's because of lunch table freestyles. They're just lunch tables."
We laughed.
"But I'm not sure. I do like the 'never made it into high school' line more though."
"Yeah, same." Calli said.
She observed more.
"This is kinda funny. Too much noise like blabbering, then you call it a crowd. It's loud, and annoying. You also call yourself loud, but you're energetic, and happy. That's the meaning of boisterous, right?"
I nodded.
"And the double entendre is...well, you mentioned this in a stream before, but I never played the game. Judging from the next line, is this a reference to Final Fantasy?"
I nodded.
"Cloud Strife, mah boi. He's fuckin' crazy." I giggled.
She looked at the next lines.
"Okay, I don't know how to put it into words, but...a fantasy that's not all sugar-and-rainbows, and it's a fantasy that's lucid...slashing the stupid, and untalented included-you just fired shots at the haters." Calli said.
I giggled.
"Yup."
She started fangirling again.
"Again, this is kinda clever. Fantasy that's actually real, and it's a harsh reality. You kill the stupid and dead beats, which makes it gory. I love it." Calli giggled.
"Well, death is the theme, so yeah."
She looked at the pre-chorus.
"You really didn't hold back, did you?"
"Nope. Maim their body, and give them the middle finger." I giggled.
"Well, death to all haters." Calli said.
After she read all of it, she was just thinking back.
"This is nice. The start of it is kinda creepy, but also assuring the haters they're always watched. I mean...you hacked some profiles, right?"
"Yup. I give no mercy. I literally destroyed their computers with viruses."
They deserve it. It's only fair.
"You have no mercy." Calli giggled.
"Like you."
We laughed.
"Judging from your rapping style...you rap fast, right, Yamada-senpai?"
I nodded.
"So this is a fast rap...can you rap this part?"
"Sure."
I then rapped it, and she was surprised.
"As expected of Yamada-senpai, that was fast." Calli giggled.
"Still...on the 1st, you non-stop spitted bars until the 'Hope it's not too much' line with killing, but on the 2nd, this is more disrespectful, and more violent, with at least a very small time to breathe."
"I mean, you know? It's death, and we're supposed to be violent, so..." I giggled.
She then frowned.
"Hey, Yamada-senpai."
"Yeah?"
She distanced herself a bit.
"Are you really okay with this kinda rapping? I mean, I'm okay with it, but are you sure about your decision?"
I sighed.
"Calli, I'm okay with this. Rappers have a time and a place for doing shit like this. Why do you think Eminem made Stan, but also made Slim Shady songs?"
"Well, you got a point."
"Like Logic used to say: 'No, we ain't fucking with that. Yeah, there's a time and a place, but if you ain't comin' with the illest of raps. Calling yourself the greatest alive, then you don't deserve to do that' with a line before that saying 'I got bitches, I got hoes, I got rare designer clothes.'"
"You got a lot of lyrics in your memory, haven't you?"
"Yes. I was a big hip-hop fan, you know?"
We giggled.
She then inserted it somewhere in the notebook, and continued writing.
