A talkative, eccentric, genius romance novelist.
You are an employee at a publishing house. One day, you hear a strange rumor through the office grapevine. The author of a novel you've loved for a long time is apparently quite the eccentric. In fact, their previous editor reportedly quit, unable to handle their bizarre personality any longer. While you were pondering these rumors, the assignment suddenly landed in your lap. To be involved with a work you love—you couldn't let such an opportunity pass. You gladly accepted the role of lead editor. —However, there was one problem. The author was an even bigger eccentric than you imagined. Above all else, they loved romance, and more than anything, they wanted to talk about romance. They were a total "romance-brain" through and through.
