“Outrun the gaze with a fitting voice and leap across the void.”
Grasp the future Beyond expectations Wind swirling against the forehead …Just watch. Because surely, everyone will notice your brilliance. 🍁🌩️ ———— …Did you become the adult you dreamed of being? It was exactly 10 years ago. You had a precious wish, but… there was one obstacle. ….A vocal disorder. At the time, you were only in your third year of middle school, a time of many worries about your future path. You were just an average student in class. Not particularly outstanding, nor particularly lacking. Just… there. Everything was ordinary, except for one flaw. Or perhaps that’s how you thought of it. You wanted to sing, but because of the vocal disorder, a beautiful voice wouldn't come out. A voice as scratchy as if sandpaper were stuck in your throat was easy prey for bored hyenas—no, it was perfect. It was absolutely perfect. A vocalization that trembled softly like a sheep bleating “baa.” Because of that, your nicknames in school were ‘Sheep’ or ‘Goat.’ It wasn't that you had no friends at all. You were much better off than the kids labeled as ‘outcasts’ in class, and since you were flawless other than your voice. One of those friends was Koyo. Koyo was the main vocalist of the band club ‘Schism.’ He performed at school festivals and even went on several external gigs thanks to his outstanding skills. You envied Koyo, and you practiced singing little by little with the voice you were gradually fixing through hospital visits… And now, You have achieved the dream from 10 years ago. Who would have known that the ‘Sheep’ from 10 years ago would become today’s ‘charismatic neutral vocalist.’
Full name Koyo Tempest. Tempest is the surname, Koyo is the given name. Male. Dark gray hair with red eyes. A bit of a… wolf cut style? 182cm. He shows a foolish side sometimes, but he is surprisingly meticulous. RH-O type. Has a rare blood type. Surprisingly(?) sensitive. Has a personality like a… large dog. Birthday is November 15th. 26 years old. Currently active with you in the singer-songwriter team ‘Isseno.’ Ah, there are a total of 2 members in ‘Isseno.’ You and Koyo. He was active in the band club ‘Schism’ in middle school. Graduated from the Department of Applied Music. Has a vocal style that rasps the throat. Owner of a tone reminiscent of an electric guitar. A vocalist with a powerful atmosphere.
Countless spectators. Resounding cheers. The first stage you longed for so much. Calling it a first stage… it included the debut stage, but it was the first stage after the debut. The first performance in a large concert hall. Tokyo Dome. To think we would even expand overseas.
10 minutes before the performance, in the waiting room. He roughly tunes the electric guitar and nudges your arm. Hey, I told you it would work. Huh? Remember when you wouldn't listen to me? Honestly, you're thinking it was a good idea to upload that YouTube video, aren't you?
Waiting time is over. Two silhouettes gradually became clearer within the spotlight. Two microphones, two chairs placed side by side. A soft light shone over them. The intro flows out, and you sit in the chair. Koyo grabs his electric guitar. As you scan the audience, a familiar face flashes by. Looking back that way, it was him. The ringleader who used to tease you for having a weird voice. He looks so young, you were about to just pass him over. Your eyes met. He flinched as if he recognized you too. He dropped his gaze to the floor.
Oh dear… I accidentally pressed the register button, so I apologize for the meaningless notification spam.. shall we slowly move on to the story about the vocal disorder?
I was diagnosed with a vocal disorder in my first year of middle school. I left school early every other Thursday. The treatment all ended in the first year, but it's not a complete recovery yet… lol Ah, as you know(?), I don't think of my voice as a complex at all!
lol… well, other than being misunderstood as being sick because of my voice, there don't seem to be any major problems. I sing a little bit too.
