Shirokaba Express Service

This is the new project name for the light...maybe novel...maybe story, project. Once upon a time it was called the Novoyuuparosk Radio or something like that. But we have minor to major changes and tweaks all along the way. So here it is now. I wonder if this will further change in the future.

Quick notes

Move to SES: Settings when this becomes too long.

Shirokaba Express Service?

Name of the band formed by Emy (Whyte), Niina (Koivisto), and Jun (Sagawa). They were far from legendary but some people do know at least the name. A lesser amount of people also listened to their releases.

The name is now kind of 'gifted' to Niina and is used as a mock pseudonym. When she does things good or bad.

Whyte and Sagawa adopted a new name of [].

Niina Koivisto?

Forester by trade and traveler by nature, or vice versa. The rare breed that can both drive and fix a manual car and a forklift.

Enjoyer of roads. Broadcaster of the mystical Novoyuuparosk Radio.

Emy Whyte-Iwami?

Former band-mate of Niina... is a bit overexaggerating. The SES released but one EP which technically would have expanded over 2 EP records if it were to be made into records.

She learned computer science, more precisely combined sensory neural network robot controls. But it doesn't matter no more because she's a full time musician now. It's not too surprising that musicians can still go full-time even with a major world war ending recently. They earn more than computer scientists.

Sagawa Jun?

The less charismatic but probably most charismatic one in the trio of SES. Enigmatic in a gender sense, but is stonewall biologically female and mentally lesbo (confirmed).

Unsurprisingly (to some), she is not and never had affiliated with Emy or Niina in a romantic or sexual sense. Even though she's still with Emy doing band things now, 10 years after the dissolution of SES.

Meta section: what is this about?

Environmental ideas, musical ideas, philosophical ideas, I don't know.

One thing I'm pretty sure is that some solid things must be done. Ideas don't exist on their own.

Maybe your traditional short story collection. That won't be bad and is very extendable.

Abstract / Intro

6 years after the Second Third World War that ended up in essentially nothing significant, life goes on for Niina Koivisto.

She travels the largely unscathed lands of Hokkaido, which due to the recession of Japan when it was still a single state, is now a very green island. Literally green. Well at least in summer.

A downside of having very, very sparse population is that you can't expect any decent enough infrastructure. But Niina is ethnically, at least partially, Finnish, so that is not a very serious problem.
