Quick Author's Note: This story is being co-written by me, Cobalt Gemini, and my friend, SavannahCheesebox. I do several other stories, but I primarily do vector art on DeviantArt (under the name "Cobalt-Gemini"), and SavannahCheesebox streams occasionally on Twitch (under the "handihuntress"). For the sake of the story, we'll go by our real names, I am Jacob, and my co-writer is Savannah.

Also, this story idea is based on a piece of fanart I found (and used as the cover art), and I'd like to give credit where credit is due. It was hard to find the source piece, but I believe it is this: "たかよみ" by "黒ねぷ姉妹" on pixiv.net, which, according to Google Translate, means "Black Nep Sisters" by "Takayomi" (please correct me if I'm wrong).

And here's the original image, to see after the edit:

Edit (4-6-2022): I have made an original Cover Art for this story, and have updated for this story, but as you can see, I'm showing and crediting the art I originally used, since it inspired the story

And finally, here's something funny... whenever the two of us get together to write this, we call it "The Neppening"!

With all that said, we hope you enjoy!

Welcome to the world of Gamindustri, residing in the Hyperdimension. There are many dimensions like ours, though ours happens to have been connected to several others, such as the Ultradimension!

Anyways, Gamindustri is split up into four lands, each led by a Goddess, known as CPU (that stands for Console Patron Unit). Right now, you are in Planeptune, led by me, Purple Heart. But you can call me Neptune, the Protagonist of Protagonists!

It's so awesome to have you listen to my story! I hope you- "-HEY! Give my microphone back! I was using it!"

"Neptune, this isn't even on," replied Neptune's little sister, Nepgear, "are you breaking the fourth wall again?"

"The fourth wall doesn't exist when I'm talking. We've been over this," Neptune told her.

"Gamindustri doesn't revolve around you. Besides, this story isn't about you."

"Well, I'm kind of the focus of the story, right...?"

"What is this story even about?" Nepgear asked.

Neptune was about to answer, raising her finger like some thoughtful pose, but then she just got a blank look on her face. "Actually, I don't know. I can't read the author's mind."

"Minds. There's two of them."

"Oh yeah! That's right!"

"Anyways, our guests are coming soon," Nepgear told her. "You should get ready."
