[Hello Havenwell! You are, by now, surely no stranger to what a video entry to the network containing one vaguely worried, vaguely upset subject might entail. Here we see Tamaki, seated in the living room at his Havenwell-designated housing, hands occupied by one spoon and one glass containing the tail end of what looks to be a sweet dessert of some kind, and looking just... terribly anxious.]

My roommate, and, uh, my friend, Nagicchi, he hasn't been back in a while. I know he's not the only person who's gone missing lately, and I know he wouldn't just abandon me, so... he might not be coming back, I guess? I don't know if I should still be keeping an eye out for him.

[He frowns, frustrated and feeling a little defeated at the admission. That spoon is moved around to fish out some of the contents of the glass, but he doesn't quite move to take a bite just yet.]

It's really lonely here without him, though. [Okay now he takes that bite, pensively finishing it off before speaking up again.] If anyone else is looking for a roommate right now, I think I could use the company.

[He's still alive, clearly it's working out well enough?]

Mmm, sometimes it's tough. [At least, from his perspective, anyway. His phone is pulled back, and he idly scrolls through a few more photos.] Our managers are really good at making our schedules work out. [It is... probably way more stressful for the agency's workers than they're willing to admit.] Sometimes we'll get to do work in smaller groups if some of us have other things to do.

Super managers, huh? I know one of those. How big is your group, anyway?

[ That picture had four guys and none of them were even Tamaki, but then, it was possible they weren't all group members? But talking about having smaller groups do things separately kinda gave the sense that it was a lot. You never knew with idol groups! ]

There's seven of us. [Not as wild as some groups, probably, but still easy enough to break a number like that into some smaller chunks.] IDOLiSH7.

Sou-chan and I debuted first as MEZZO", though. [A little more scrolling aaaand...! Here! One Sou-chan for your viewing pleasure.] The two of us still do a lot of work with just each other.

Seven, huh.... [ She leans in and squints again to check out that pic. Super effective image sharing system they have going here. ] --So, you're actually in two groups, then! You must actually be a pretty energetic guy! [ Who knew! ]

[Oh, praise! He looks pretty proud of himself at that comment!]

Yeah! It's the best when we get to do a bunch of performances.

Do you get to do a lot of lives, then? With two different groups, it has to be a lot of work.

[Well, not an excessive amount, by any means. There's a very good obstacle in the way preventing them from doing a ton of lives, but...]

The two of us do get to do more lives because of it, yeah. It was kinda tough at first, like, Sou-chan ended up working way too hard, but it got easier after a while.

The two of you? I guess it makes sense, it would be easier to schedule things for just a pair than for a group of seven guys. It's not surprising if you ended up overworking yourselves a little, though.... I've never gone on tour, but maybe it's like going on location shoots.

Location shoots are a lot of fun, too. [Filming for videos and stuff is always a blast, minus the travelling.] Do you get to do 'em a lot?

Oh, you get to do those too? That's to be expected, I guess. But, yes! Both the dramas I've been in were mostly shot on sets, but we went on location for a few scenes. I even got to spend a few days in Karuizawa once!

[ And Guam, but she probably shouldn't include that, since she was technically behind the scenes for that job. ]
