Hanna night

(Hanna POV)

My date had gone very well. And Leo was very interesting. He knew everything I was interested in. Well, that's great. Plus, we'll be watching anime all night. What should I suggest? thought Hanna.

Should I propose something he'll like, or rather something I like?

"I've had a great day. Thank you, Hanna," Leo said.

"You're very welcome. I really enjoyed spending the day with you." Hanna replies.

Leo smiled at this reply. He then led her to the dining table where a Japanese meal awaited them. The table was filled with sushi, sashimi, udon noodles, ramen and a number of dishes Hanna couldn't name.

"But it's far too much for two people. We'll never eat it all." Said Hanna.

"I doubt it's planned. Why don't you take whatever you feel like eating and sit down opposite me?" Leo said.

Hanna agreed, even if it meant letting go of Leo's hand for the first time since they'd started dating.

"Hanna, I'd like to learn a little more about you. Of all the people in this show, you're the one I know the least about. Would you mind telling me a little about yourself?" Says Leo sitting across from her.

Hanna hesitated. Her life wasn't interesting. As the only daughter of schoolteacher parents, she hadn't lived anything exceptional. So, she decided to lie and invent a more interesting life for herself.

"I'm an orphan. I was abandoned outside an orphanage after I was born. The other children in the orphanage picked on me because I was smarter. I created my first programs at the age of 6, using the computers in the local library. At the age of 12, I was accepted at university. I graduated at 15. I created various programs that were bought by Google. Then I decided to take my time and enjoy my fortune. I discovered manga and fan fiction and wrote some of the fan fiction you've read." Said Hanna looking at Leo to see if he would accept this lie.

"Impressive Hanna you really are exceptional." Said Leo.

So, he'd bought that lie. Great, now we had to change the subject before he noticed any errors or contradictions.

"I know. I know you do. Now we have to decide what Anime we're watching tonight." Said Hanna.

"I suggest we watch the first episode of Magi and then you can show me what you'd like," says Leo.

They finished eating quickly, swallowing sushi to the point of bursting their stomachs. They settled into bed and Leo put on the first episode of Magi.

The episode was interesting from Hanna's point of view, but she took advantage of it to press herself up against Leo. There was no way he was going to run away.

"That's fine now I suggest you see Monster Musume." Said Hanna.

She'd chosen this because it was soft enough for Leo not to notice too much that she'd only be showing him Harem anime. After all, she might as well give the others a hand and persuade Leo to accept her harem.

Plus, the idea of belonging to a harem like in the anime she loves, is really exciting.

The evening passed quietly, they watched several anime episodes together and Hanna finally earned her first VP by cuddling Leo before falling asleep in his arms.

(Nola POV)

Nola was alone in a room watching the various screens showing each participant.

It hadn't all gone exactly to plan, but that was the gist of it.

Okay, she readily admitted that she hadn't seen Daphne's stupidity coming. She thought she was smarter than that.

Apart from that little point, the first 3 dates had gone well.

The only small problem was that Eric was perhaps accelerating things a little too much with Leo. Eric was too smart for his own good. This would have to be sorted out. Maybe we'd have to haggle with him?

Then there was Daphne. How could anyone be so smart and so stupid at the same time? It was almost too easy to mold her as intended.

Hanna was cute and the audience favorite so far, so it'll be interesting to see if that continues. I can't wait to see how she reacts tomorrow when she remembers this day.

Abigail is helping the others a lot at the moment. Is she going to get out of this role? After that, should I bring her daughters into the show? It wasn't really planned, but she could adapt. The question was more whether they would bring something different. Should I take both?

Blanche was taking an unexpected turn. For someone who likes to yell and talk at other people so much, she was strangely calm and quiet. Had I misjudged her profile?

Jessica was exactly what I expected. A real pain in the ass.

Let's take a quick, inconsequential poll to see the evolution of popularity so far.
