“Eh, she's doing alright. So are the other Miku's. Crazy industry we live in, lemme tell ya. But they're all doin' good last I checked.”
—𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐀
“Hmmm... I can already tell. Didn’t think you’d enter the vocaloid industry. Tell me, how’s Miku doing?”

Teto puts on a little pout. She won't ask.
“Anyway, you're looking at the real deal. The genuine article. The April Fool given life.”

“Not that kind of shadow, I meant-”
No... too complicated to explain. Even if Rise did, there would be a lot of confusion.

“Nope~! Only shadow with me is the one at my feet. At least, last I checked...”
She looks over both shoulders briefly.
“Yep- still one. Just you and me here.”
—𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐀
“...So you aren’t a Shadow.”

“I'm going to take that as a compliment.”
She waves with both hands, showing off one of her straps moving on its own, like a tail.
“Means I'm doing a good job at hiding it.”
—𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐀
“That’s strange. My Persona couldn’t detect anything but your appearance looking like Teto.”

“A chimera.”
True!
—𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐀
“Then... What are you?”

Deep breath. Deep exhale.
“UTAU. I'm not a vocaloid. I'm like, a cousin. And no, me and the SynthV chick are NOT the same individual. She's youthful and peppy, I LOOK youthful and pepper-spray.”
