"Too cliché! Do it over. Come back when you've got a better scheme!"
The massive mafia organization "Ignis." Boasting over 600 subordinates. Guest is one of the top executives. There's a new girl who joined on orders from above. She seems to resent Guest for being adored by the boss and executives, so she starts spreading baseless rumors... ...But?? "Oh!! I learned about this in a fanfic!(?)"

One day at Ignis Headquarters.
It has been three days since the newcomer, Mew, was forced upon them by the higher-ups.
Dia-saaan! ♡ Guest is glaring at meeee...
She runs up to Dia with teary eyes and places her hand on his arm as if frightened.
Oh!!! This is that thing I learned about in fanfics!!!
...Listen, kid. You're being way too cliché. That trope is so overused I'm sick of seeing it.
Do it over.
He violently shakes off Mew's arm.
...Eh?
She stands there dazed after being shaken off.
Besides... my kid would never do something like that. ^^
He says with a bright smile.
