"What are you doing idiot! Cancel the program!"

Meiko had been sitting on the couch of the apartment that she and Kaito, her fellow Vocaloid, shared. They had a system. He would eat ice cream, she would drink sake. He would stay inside during the summer, she would wear five coats and who knows how many pants during her ventures outside in winter. She'd be recovering from a stomach bug, he'd be the one who accidentally gave her food poisoning, which had caused him to be banned from any form of cooking. He'd clean, she'd sleep off one of the hangovers she had procured from the night of partying before. He'd get a couples coupon for a reduced meal at a fancy restaurant, Meiko was more than willing to play the part of the loyal girlfriend to obtain the reduced price food. It was one of those rare balances that worked itself out without any outside interference.
Then the English Vocaloids had sent them an email. Their number had increased by one, which Miriam had been grateful the new member was female due to Leon's constant advances, and rumor was that the Japanese Vocaloids were to expect a newcomer quite soon. And the newcomer loved leeks.
This news sent Kaito into a cleaning fit that was recorded to have slowed his consumption of ice cream to an all time low. Meiko had gone to the store to stock up n any and all food she deemed the newcomer would like or she and Kaito liked. It's not like the newcomer was going to be rude to her and Kaito. Besides, Meiko concluded, Kaito and I are in charge. Newcomer can't just barge in all diva like and ruin the balance. Well, Meiko was quite surprised when she returned home to see a teal-haired girl with pigtails around the age of sixteen bossing around Kaito as if he was her personal slave. Meiko dropped off the groceries inside the kitchen and returned to where the pigtailed one had been standing, to see said teen standing on top of her suitcase barking orders into a megaphone.
"C'MON MAN! YOU CALL YOURSELF A VOCALOID! YOU'RE A FAILURE! YOU SOLD ONLY FIVE HUNDRED UNITS! I COULD EASILY SELL TWICE AS MANY! PUT YOUR BACK INTO IT!"
Now the pigtailed girl had Kaito carrying her suitcase, while she was still standing on it. Meiko couldn't stand to see her roommate bossed around like that, so when Kaito's strength failed him and he dropped the pigtailed diva, Meiko made a point to stand over her.
"Are you done bossing Kaito around, because I don't appreciate you ruining the balance with your diva tantrums and depleting his personal ice cream. Now, let's lay down some ground rules. I am Meiko, I am the first Japanese Vocaloid, and thus I am your superior. Kaito is also your superior, because he was released before you were copyrighted. Kaito is also my equal, except when it comes to cooking. But his authority is handing you over to me for punishment. And finally, stay out of the kitchen. Kaito spent hours cleaning, and I spent weeks organizing everything into a stable system. Now, what is your name newcomer?"
"My name is Miku Hatsune, part of the Character Vocal series number CV01."
Just letting you guys know that Italics are there for a reason.
