FE: Hello, the idol of the men around the world speaking, Fire Emblem! Listen, the editorial department of the Monthly Hero came up with a certain project proposal the other day. The eight Heroes are supposed to temporarily assume the role of the editor in chief and put together a special issue. A pretty tall order, don't you think? That said, it's brainstorming time, everybody!
FE: Alright, so I, Fire Emblem, am going to act as the head of the meeting. I'm glad to see you all here.
Heroes: Yes, sir!
FE: Let's start with the requested individual articles. We're going to make the most exciting special issue ever that will shake up whole Hero business!
BR: Before we get to that, can I say something, boss?
FE: Yes, Blue Rose?
BR: Why on Earth do we have to hold a meeting while dressed in our Hero suits?
FE: Because it helps with creative inspiration. We're working on a Monthly Hero issue after all.
BR: But they get in the way when we're indoors. These drills for example.
Antonio: Huh?
FE: Rock Bison, your shoulder drills are annoying the other members. Kindly put them away.
Antonio: Oh, sorry.
BR: T-they are retractable!?
Antonio: That's right! But anyway, who would have thought that one day I'll get to act as an editor in chief! Continuing being a Hero has its perks, I guess. Right, Sky High?
SH: Yes, and we can even freely choose what we want in our articles. It's a fulfilling, and again, an enriching experience!
FE: Sorry about calling you here on your practice day, Dragon Kid.
DK: It's okay. This too is a part of my job.
FE: Alright everybody, let's start by presenting the ideas that you all came up with. If anybody will have something to add, don't hesitate to speak up.
Heroes: Right!
FE: Blue Rose, you first.
BR: Right. Er, I would like to introduce the fashion trends that are currently popular among the young girls. I also thought it might be fun to release and market some Blue Rose accessories created in collaboration with the famous brands.
FE: Hmm.
Antonio: Just what one would expect from the super idol of the Hero business.
FE: A fool-proof plan, that.
DK: Awesome! I'd have never thought about something like this.
SH: Wonderful, and again, wonderful!
BR: Really!? I'm so happy!
FE: Keep it up, everybody! Dragon Kid, you're next.
DK: Right! Um, I've been thinking about making a gourmet special!
FE: Gourmet?
DK: Yeah! Sternbild is full of little known but fantastic establishments! Yakiniku restaurants, Chinese food, sushi bars, Chinese food, cakeries and oh yeah, Chinese food and-
FE: Alright, hold on a second!
FE:...Dragon Kid.
DK: Yes?
FE: You just named the foods that you want to eat, didn't you? Chinese cuisine in particular.
DK: Erk! Ehhh, uh... Haha, was it that obvious? Åc.So, no good?
SH: Wonderful, and again, wonderful!
Heroes: What.
SH: I would like to visit those establishments and tell them ÅgThank you for the wonderful foodÅh!
Antonio: What sort of a proclamation is that? I mean, everybody says that all the time.
BR: But food interests pretty much everybody, so I think it's a good idea.
OC: I totally agree, de gozaru!
Antonio: You're here as well, Origami?
OC: I... I've been here since the beginning.
FE: You don't have to keep your photobombing shtick during the meetings as well! Hurry up and present your proposal.
OC: I desire to make a ninja special, de gozaru.
FE: A ninja special.
>(OC recites kabuki-style here, something about wooden bears and tall wooden clogs.)
BR: Does that really have anything to do with ninjas?
OC: Indeed!
DK: I see!
Antonio: I don't think it does.
DK: I see...
OC: Ahh, I've been thinking about it so much I barely get any sleep! Shu shu shu...
FE: But this is just your personal hobby!
OC: A-ah!? ...So, no good, then...
SH: Wonderful, and again, wonderful!
Heroes: What!?
FE: Wait a sec, Sky High-chan! So far you have done nothing but agreeing with everybody, so please put some thought into what you're saying!
SH: I-I'm sorry. I will refrain from making comments then.
FE: Now, no need to go to other extreme.
SH: No, I must. My rash remarks have hurt the feelings of everybody here.
BR: I-it's nothing like that! I too think a ninja special is a good idea!
DK: Y-yeah, me too!
SH: Really!?
Antonio: Well, it suits Origami, I guess.
SH: Alright, then please hear out my idea! I'm proposing something that has never been here before, the King of Ideas!
Antonio: It already sounds amazing.
DK: What it is, what it is?
SH: A special feature about John!
Heroes: John!?
SH: My dog!
Heroes: Oh...
SH: John is an angel. He brings comfort to me every day. Did you know that in human years he would be sixty years old already?
FE: Oh really. No, we didn't.
BR: Who cares about that?
SH: Eh?
Antonio: How about broadening it up and making a pet special then?
SH: A pet special... I haven't thought about that.
BR: Normal people would've started there first, you know.
SH: But I really want to make a special about John-
FE: So it's a pet special! Is everybody in agreement?
Heroes: Yeah!
SH:... If that's what everybody wants, then okay....
FE: Rock Bison, you're next.
Antonio: I propose a special about the man's body. A commentary about the effective training regimens and the best ways how to bring out the muscles!
BR: The best way-
FE: Hold it, hold it! That's almost the same thing as I'm writing about!
Antonio: You serious?
BR: What? What do you intend to make, boss?
FE: A surprise body check! Stripping the city's hot studs of their clothes and making a birthday suit special feature.
BR: In the buff!? No way!
DK: What does Ågin the buffÅh mean?
Antonio: You don't have to know yet.
OC: Rock Bison's idea suddenly sounds really good, doesn't it.
FE: Oh come on! At least Sky High-chan agrees with me, right?
SH: I'm afraid I don't.
FE: Why is my idea the only one that you have to disagree with!?
SH: Exposing oneself on the streets is illegal!
FE: Oh fine! I suspected something like this would happen so I prepared a plan B as well.
BR: Plan B?
FE: A biographical feature about Fire Emblem passionately in love!
Heroes: Eh..?
Antonio: Wait, you don't mean..?
FE: Don't worry, it just a heartwarming tale about school love. A rugby scrum half McEnroy called me out to the audiovisual room...
ME: Um... Nathan, do you.... Uh, do you have a boyfriend?
Nathan: Well, there's somebody I like, yes.
ME: Oh nooo!
Nathan: And he's right next to me.
ME: Nathan...
Nathan: McEnroy...
ME: Nathan!
Nathan: McEnroy!
BR: A maiden in love is awesome!
FE: Er, wait-
DK: It's adorable!
OC: Agreed, de gozaru!
FE: No, wait-
SH: Wonderful, and again, wonderful!
Antonio: Okay, so we have decided on the themes. Let's take a break now!
Heroes: Yeah!
FE: Hmph, I swear they did it on purpose. Just you wait, I'm going to tell you the whole story one day.
FE: Alright, so let's start with second part of the meeting. The topic of discussion is what should be the free add-on to the special issue.
BR: How about a Hero-special make-up pouch?
FE: Not the worst idea, but not something that men would be interested in.
Antonio: Then how about some protein supplements?
FE: You really don't understand women. Look, we have to come up with something that will appeal to both sexes.
DK: Ramen!
FE: Food is out of the question.
OC: A bonsai!
FE: Bulky things are also out of the question!
SH: Something that will appeal to both sexes, isn't food and isn't bulky... Photos of John!
FE: John is out of the question.
Heroes: Hmmmm.
FE: What's with this heavy atmosphere? Sigh, I wish Handsome were here. He definitely would have some constructive ideas.
BR: Speaking of which, why aren't Tiger and Barnaby attending the meeting?
FE: The two of them are busy shooting a drama series.
BR: A drama series?
FE: Yes, a drama serial with them starring in the main roles.
OC: A drama serial, huh. Those two sure have made it big...
BR: What's up with that, anyway? And he could've at least told us about it, that idiot.
SH: A drama serial... They must feel so accomplished these days. I too wish I could have said my lines back then...
Heroes: What?
SH: I was standing in the back alley, completely alone... It was so lonely.
FE: Are you still hung up about that?
DK: What are you talking about?
Antonio: We have tried to throw a birthday surprise for Barnaby once before.
OC: Oh, I've heard about that.
BR: A robbery incident has occurred though, so it all ended in failure. And Sky High was the one most excited about it too.
SH: It's alright. It's in the past now... all in the past....
FE: I've just got a fantastically fiery idea!
Heroes: What!
FE: How about we make an audio drama, with the six of us acting there?
Antonio: An audio drama?
FE: And Sky Hiiigh-chan will play the main role!
BR: Good idea!
DK: Sounds fun!
SH: Me, playing the main role?...Um, I don't know if I can...
OC: None of us can put as much energy in their acting as Sky High-san, de gozaru!
SH: Ah...! Thank you, and again, thank you very much!
BR: So, what it is gonna be about?
FE: Well... Sky High-chan, is there any role that you would like to try?
SH: I have given it a lot of thought and I think I would really like to play a villain at least once.
Antonio: I knew it. That role back then was perfect for him.
OC: I want to see Sky High play a villain!
DK: Since we're doing it anyway, let's give that drama some flair!
FE: A drama with flair, you say...
BK: By flair you mean a sci-fi or-
Antonio: A fantasy drama could be interesting too!
OC: Personally, I would like something ninja-themed.
DK: I want action!
FE: No consensus here, I see. Now what?
SH: The solution is obvious! Let's incorporate all those elements!
FE: All of them!?
SH: It's a special issue, so there's no need to worry about the excess.
BR: So in other words we're making a ninja action sci-fi fantasy?
Heroes: Hmmm.
Antonio: I think something's wrong here.
FE: Well, let's try imagining it anyway.
Heroes: Ugh.
SH: Mwahaha! People of the universe, who live on farms! I am the emperor of evil, the one who makes even crying children fall silent, Dark Sky High! From this day on the universe is mine!
FE: Hold it right there.
SH: You!
Antonio: We won't let you get away with this, Dark Sky High!
BR: We will protect these rice plants!
DK: And the future of the universe as well!
SH: So you have appeared, the protectors of the universe and all rice fields, the defenders of justice, Justice Five! And I can see you hiding in that scarecrow's shadow, Origami Cyclone!
OC: Oh no, I've been found out!
FE: The fate of humanity depended on that Origami's strategy!
BR: It failed!?
DK: What are we going to to!? There's no way we can win against Dark Sky High otherwise!
Antonio: It's all over...
SH: This is the end! And you're through! Dark Skyyyy Hiiigh!
Justice Five: Ahhhh!
SH: And thus the universe has met its end and the rice fields have fallen into my hands. The next victim could be you!
Heroes: Hmm.
SH: So, what do you all think?
SH:...I'm sorry. I will refrain from ad-libbing from now on.
FE: It's great!
Antonio: That's right! The King of Drama!
DK: Sky High is a genius!
BR: He really is! I might even respect him!
OC: Wonderful, and again, wonderful, de gozaru!
SH: Everyone... Alright! Let us make the best special issue in history!
Heroes: Yes!
Alarm clock: Sky High, wake up and again, wake up! Sky High, wake up and again, wake up!
SH: Oh, I was dreaming...
FE: Right in the middle of the meeting to boot!
BR: Did you fall asleep while imagining the drama special content?
SH: Eh?
FE: At this rate this meeting will never end!
Antonio: Is there any real point to this meeting?
DK: I'm hungry.
OC: I should check when the last train is leaving.
BR: I want to go home already.
FE: And thus the Hero meeting dragged on and on. I can't take it anymore!
