"Ah, them," Rika said, placing her finger lightly on her chin as if in deep thought. "They are my fan girls who have been following me around for a while, some of them since primary school.

I don't dislike them; in fact I have a fondness for some, but sometimes they can get a little too...passionate in this endeavor," she explained. After a brief pause she let out a smile, clapping her hands together to try and get the conversation back to more upbeat tone.
