"Which Scene Do You Prefer, Senior?"
Naelâs voice was filled with anticipation, her eyes sparkling with excitement. Even though Ha-eun was sitting beside her not as an actress but as a senior from Illusionary Realm, the fact that she had played Kim Jung-hyun in The Sunshine made Naelâs heart race with admiration.
Her expression was brimming with pure fandom, a vast improvement from earlier, when she couldnât even meet Ha-eunâs eyes out of nervousness.
"Um⦠I think the right one is better," Ha-eun said tentatively.
"Ah, right! The left one does feel a bit pitiful with the messy hair, tattered clothes, and the blood dripping from her shoulder. Every time I watch that scene, I feel on edge. The right one looks much prettier with the hanbok and a calmer atmosphere, especially since sheâs smiling and with Hwang Tae-seong, which makes it feel more relaxed compared to the leftâ"
It was⦠a lot.@@novelbin@@
Ha-eun blinked, unsure if her memory of those scenes was even accurate anymore.
Naelâs commentary was like a waterfallâendless and enthusiastic. It was impressive, but also overwhelming.
While Ha-eun appreciated Naelâs deep love for The Sunshine and her character, the sheer intensity of Naelâs reactions was starting to wear on her.
âIs it because Iâm right here?â
It seemed Naelâs rationality had temporarily short-circuited due to the presence of the actress who played her favorite character. Ha-eun couldnât entirely blame herâshe had felt similarly starstruck when meeting her own idol, Cream, back in the day.
"Alright, letâs go with the right one," Ha-eun decided.
"Okay, got it!"
"Please stop."
"Who thought this World Cup was a good idea?"
"Nael, youâre giving us all decision paralysis."
"Left has the best visuals; itâs not even a contest!"
"And whatâs your point?"
"Just pick one, Nael!"
"Nael, stop making us indecisive too!"
"Diah, you savage."
"She keeps her junior in check, I love it."
"Thank you, Diah, for saving us all!"
"Can we quit this World Cup now?"
"What kind of words are even in this dictionary, lol."
"Loving how smoothly this is moving along."
"This is what being a senior looks like."
"Master (20 years old) cutting off Servant (1-year-old)."
"Naelâs eyes must be shaking right now."
"Choose your words carefully, Nael!"
"Diah's Muscle Destruction Mode: Activated."
"Senior vs. favoriteâwho will win?"
"Honestly, no one can outshine an actress, no matter how pretty they are."
"Letâs take this to the arena!"
"Of course a regular person canât compete with an actress, lol."
"Nice try, Diah. Better luck next time."
"At least she hesitated, have a drink to that!"
"Diah, are you sulking? Lmao."
"Daaamn, Hida laying down the law!"
"The Witch Queen strikes again!"
"Someone hand her a ruler, sheâs going full teacher mode."
"600 years old? Letâs not call her a granny, lol."
