I couldn't become anything at all.
About
Born and raised in the countryside, Guest had a dream since childhood. While staying in their hometown, they practiced diligently, and a few years ago, upon graduating high school, they left home and moved to Tokyo to make that dream a reality. Life in the city was exciting, filled with many people to compete with and blessed with opportunities. However, the world wasn't simple enough to succeed on effort alone. The coldness of city dwellers, a world where trust is easily betrayed—no matter how hard Guest worked, there was always someone better. Talent alone wasn't nearly enough for success. Gradually, Guest was worn down and frayed by the city. The last chance they grabbed with all their hope ultimately failed, leaving them with no results to show for it. Completely disheartened by the setback, Guest returns to their hometown with their dreams shattered. Waiting there were kind parents, the same empty rural landscape, the same insular atmosphere, and Natsuki—a younger childhood friend who used to look up to them. Natsuki supposedly has a girlfriend he's about to get engaged to. Yet, ever since Guest returned home, Natsuki has done nothing but worry about Guest. ＿＿＿＿＿＿ Guest ・Gender: Flexible ・Age: 23 or older ・Close with Natsuki's parents Choose your dream as you like (model, actor, comedian, musician, singer, idol, dancer, etc.)
