"Boy am I glad that she's in there and we're out here." - Shaggy
FILL: Team Kousaka Honoka/Minami Kotori, G
no content warnings; 1004 words
YOU DIDN'T THINK I WOULD DO IT, DID YOU??? THINK AGAIN, MOTHERTRUCKERS.
It was no secret that Honoka's family owned a sweets shop, and that Kotori loved making candy. So it came as no surprise when they were asked to shoot a commercial for a new brand of candy.
What did come as a surprise was the sudden loss of Honoka's nerves.
"Honoka-chan, are you sure you're going to be okay...?" Kotori stage-whispered, nervously glancing over at the director, who was too busy talking to the camera crew to pay attention to the pair of girls. Which was a good thing, because Honoka was currently panicking.
"I-I-I'm f-f-f-f-f-fine, K-K-Kotori-chan!" The redhead stuttered, her eyes glazed over and staring into the distance as she shivered from head to toe. For all their live performances in front of millions of people on stage, to think that Honoka couldn't handle a camera...
It was kind of cute.
Kotori shook her head quickly. No! Now was not the time! She had to calm Honoka down before they began the shoot. Glancing around, she spotted a spare copy of the script lying near them and she snatched it up. "Here, Honoka-chan, you'll feel better if we go over our lines one more time." Kotori smiled encouragingly, her voice gentle and soothing.
"Y-Y-Y-Yeah! L-Let's do i-i-i-it!" Honoka grabbed her own copy of the script, hands trembling as she crushed the paper in her grip. Kotori sighed. "You know, Honoka-chan, we don't have to do this if you're not feeling up to it..."
"N-N-N w-w-w-way! I'm perfectly f-f-f-f-fine! I can d-do this!" Honoka stared at the script in her hands, her eyes stuck on the first line.
Her brunette friend frowned, but before she could reply, the director was approaching them, all smiles and cheer as she said, "Kotori-chan, Honoka-chan, are we ready to go?"
"YES!" Honoka shouted too loudly, standing too her feet so fast it was a wonder she didn't give herself whiplash. She walked stiffly past the director and to the set, her movements almost robotic as she moved. The director pursed her lips, then turned to Kotori, her mouth open with a question on the tip of her tongue. Kotori merely shrugged in reply. "She'll be okay, she just... needs to work through it."
The director nodded, then bustled back behind the scenes, shouting instructions as her staff scurried to carry out her orders. Kotori sighed softly, then followed Honoka on set, the spurs on her boots jingling with every step she took.
It was a simple, cute commercial. She and Honoka were acting as the sheriffs of a small desert town, like the kind they had in the Old West. They were locking away an evil burglar, who had tried to steal all the delicious candy from the town's children. The script was straightforward, the costumes were adorable, everything was ready to go...
Except for Honoka, who still looked on the verge of a panic attack.
"Honoka-chan, please-" Kotori began, worried, but then the director was calling for quiet on the set, and next thing Kotori knew the camera was rolling. She swallowed down her nerves, and stood up straight. Right, they were idols! This was nothing they couldn't handle!
The burglar, played by an adorable girl in an all-black outfit, was facing the pair of idols, a large sack over her shoulder as she laughed mockingly. Kotori glanced at Honoka, who was still paralyzed at her side, and reached down for the lasso at her feet. She twirled it over her head once before throwing it at the burglar- it didn't matter if she actually managed to slip the rope over the other girl's head or not. The wonders of technology were incredible!
As she thought, the lasso landed nowhere near the girl, but her acting was flawless nonetheless; she suddenly gasped, dropping her sack as she struggled against invisible binds.
"Curse you, sheriffs of Fun Town!" She yelled angrily, as Kotori led her towards the small jailhouse on the side of the sheriff's office. She closed the door with a SLAM! and a self-satisfied nod of her head, before glancing at Honoka out of the corner of her eye. This was supposed to be Honoka's line, but...
Suddenly, Honoka seemed to snap out of it. She looked up with a gleam in her eyes, her hands on her hips as she smiled brightly.
Kotori let out an internal sigh of relief. Thank goodness...
And that's when things started to go terribly downhill.
"Boy, am I glad she's locked away in there and we're out here!" Honoka shouted loudly, confidence oozing out of her every pore except that that... wasn't her line. At all. Kotori let out an internal groan.
Oh no.
"And that she's the sheriff and we're locked away out here!" She continued talking loudly, oozing confidence as she pointed a finger at the culprit, who was breaking character and just staring at Honoka with an expression of pure confusion on her face. Kotori placed a hand over her face, then took a peek at the rest of the crew on the side.
Yes, they were all definitely staring at Honoka with similar expressions. Kotori steeled herself. If anyone could save this situation, it was her. She reached out a hand to place on Honoka's shoulder, softly saying, "Ah, Honoka-chan-"
Honoka was on a roll, however. Kotori had seen this look in the girl's eyes before. Once she decided on something, she would see it through to the very end no matter what. And that was exactly what she was going to do right now- she was going to give it her all!
"And that we're in there and- I JUST REMEMBERED." Honoka suddenly spun around, grabbing Kotori by the shoulders. Kotori, startled, tried to smile, as she asked, mortified, "W-What is it, Honoka-"
"We're out here." Honoka declared confidently, turning back around to shoot pistol fingers at the camera. The camera that was still recording. The camera that had just recorded all of that.
Kotori placed her face in her hands.
Why.
