Studying makes me... not happy.
After returning home, Rin Ito immediately searched online for project management experience related to GALGAMEs, but he only found some basic, general management knowledge. As for the specifics... he was completely clueless and had no experience.
Rin Ito had always quietly focused on drawing and submitting his work on time; he was completely in the dark regarding project and progress management. Rin Ito asked Orihime and Satou, with whom he had a good relationship, but while they were familiar with manga, they were unfamiliar with games. They didn't know the exact number of stages, how to determine deadlines based on estimated man-hours for each stage, and so on... Besides, the specific circumstances of each project were different, requiring specific analysis.
Rin Ito couldn't find detailed tutorials online. Sitting in front of his computer, he stretched vigorously. If necessary, he could find a part-time job at a GALGAME company to experience the production process... With his skills, getting a position as an original artist shouldn't be difficult.
Or should he ask someone in the industry to teach him? Rin Ito scrolled through his phone. Among all his contacts, only Akane Kosaka had relevant project management experience, but he wasn't familiar enough with her to ask for a favor. Moreover, he had just rejected her on Mashiro's behalf, so it wouldn't be appropriate to ask now.
Fortunately, Eiri's little game wasn't a major project right now. Keeping an eye on them and preventing them from delaying their submissions should be enough. However, if the team grew larger later, he would need a professional project manager... If only I could poach Akane Kosaka. But Rin Ito just thought about it. Why would a famous producer like Akane Kosaka join him?
In any case, the current priority was still the personnel issue. After stretching, Rin Ito took out his phone and sent a message to Nanami, who was doing voice acting practice in the yard, asking her to come to his room.
Nanami: [Please wait, I'm going to take a shower!!!!]
Rin Ito: [Do it later.]
Rin Ito sent the message but received no reply, and he could faintly hear the sound of water coming from the bathroom. Nanami was probably just about to take a shower. Rin Ito didn't pay too much attention and continued studying relevant knowledge.
A moment later, a light set of footsteps and the sound of the door opening could be heard. Rin Ito turned his chair. "Nanami, are you interested in..." Rin Ito, turning his chair, saw Nanami with only a bath towel wrapped around her chest. Fresh from the shower, Nanami's cheeks and shoulders carried an alluring flush from the steam. After her lips quivered for a while, Rin Ito sighed helplessly.
"Did you think I called you here just to devour you?"
"Huh? Wasn't it?" Nanami blinked, looking completely innocent.
Their eyes met. Rin Ito took a deep breath. "It can be."
"Ah~" Nanami let out a small gasp. The next moment, Rin Ito pulled Nanami into his arms.
"L-Let's talk about business first." Nanami struggled slightly in Rin Ito's embrace. Now she knew Rin Ito had called her to talk about business, not for sex.
Gently embracing Nanami's slender waist, his fingertips slid down her delicate, flat abdomen. Although her thighs were clamped tightly together, his fingertips still slipped easily inside, feeling the girl's tightness.
"You're wet even though I haven't touched you... Did you prepare in advance, or were you anticipating something?"
"Ugh... It's... it's the shower water." A blush stained her pale cheeks, and her ear tips felt hot. Normally, Nanami wouldn't be this shy, but now... He called me to talk about business; he won't think I'm a girl who likes smut, will he!? Ugh... It's all Mashiro! It's all Mashiro's fault for corrupting me!!! I'm not a girl who likes smut!!!!
While gently teasing the girl's most sensitive spot, Rin Ito whispered into Nanami's ear. "Eiri wants to make a game and is missing a voice actor. Do you want to try it?"
"Ugh... A game? Ugh!!!!" His fingertip hooked, finding the most fragile point deep inside the girl's body, causing the girl in his arms to arch her back and spray a few droplets.
After a brief moment of mental blankness, Rin Ito's words brought Nanami's mind back to clarity. "It's a GALGAME. Although it's 18+, you only need to voice the all-ages part."
"Voice acting!? Really!? But I haven't studied systematically yet..."
"It's okay; Eiri and the others aren't professionals, either... I've found you a voice acting opportunity. How will you thank me?" Rin Ito whispered, biting Nanami's hot earlobe.
Frankly, even if Rin Ito hadn't found her, Eiri would have.
"Eh... T-Thank you?" Nanami was momentarily lost. Thank you? Thanking him was fine, but... her whole body, except her butt, had been developed by him. She and Mashiro had unlocked all sorts of embarrassing service positions. How else could she thank him?
"It's about..." Rin Ito whispered into Nanami's ear. Nanami was stunned for a moment, then blushed and nodded.
"I... I understand. When the time comes... I'll help."
"Such a good girl~" Rin Ito kissed Nanami's cheek, then let go of her, looking at Nanami with a half-smile. "What's wrong? It's getting late, you can go back to sleep now. Why aren't you saying anything? I don't have mind-reading abilities, you know."
Next door, Kaede spat inwardly. Teasing Nanami until she's aroused and then pretending not to know... What a jerk! Nanami, be strong! Mashiro's room has lots of toys! Just use those toys to take care of yourself! Just like you did that day when you peeked at my first time! Wasn't it fun entertaining yourself with a toy while peeking? Don't ask him!
Although Kaede was yelling in her heart, Nanami didn't have mind-reading abilities and couldn't hear Kaede's thoughts. The teasing from Rin Ito had already ignited Nanami's desires. Nanami had become a girl who liked smut, just like Mashiro! Using small toys occasionally for self-entertainment was fine, but when she was truly craving, the real thing was always better.
Seeing Rin Ito's teasing smirk, Nanami knew what he wanted... He wanted her to say something embarrassing. Previously, Nanami had always gone with the flow, freeloading on the fun. For example, if Mashiro wanted sex, Nanami would join in, or she'd join a material-gathering party, or she'd hint with her body without saying anything, just like before.
But today... Hehe. Rin Ito wanted her to say something embarrassing today. Nanami turned her face away, refusing to meet Rin Ito's gaze. Her perfectly round, jade-like toes were tightly curled.
"I... I want it."
"Want what? Where wants it?" Rin Ito smiled at Nanami.
Blushing, Nanami closed her eyes, then broke the tension by separating the sticky line between her thighs with her fingers.
"The mango wants the cock!!!!"
