Chika Ep. 24: To All My Special Ones

Chika wants to write cards to go with her treats while she waits for them to bake. Curious about why she suddenly decided to make treats as a present for everyone, you ask Chika about her motives.

Chika

The washing up's aaall done!

Player

I've finished tidying up the ingredients too. We used up almost everything we bought. I thought we'd have more left over.

Chika

Do you think they're done baking yet? I hope they're not burned.

Kanata

They look okay from what I can see.

Chika

*Sniff* *Sniff* They smell so sweet and tasty! I really wanna dig into 'em now… No, no, these are supposed to be treats for everyone so I can't eat them myself!

Kanata

It'd be okay to have a little taste though, right?

Chika

You think?!

Option 1: “I think it'd be fine too.”

Player

I also think it'd be fine. I mean, we've gotta taste-test them first.

Chika

Good point! We have to be sure they're super delicious before we give them to anyone!

Option 2: “As long as it's only the burnt or broken ones.”

Player

We can't give burnt or broken ones as presents either, so I guess eating those would be okay.

Chika

I see! Let's see if any of them are looking a bit burnt… *Gasp* No, no, no! These are for everyone so we should want them all to come out perfectly baked!

Kanata

Well, let's just wait until they're actually done baking before we decide which ones to eat ourselves or even if we'll eat any at all!

Chika

Oh, yeah. I was thinking I'd add little message cards to go with these. I'll write them up before everything finishes baking.

Player

Chika, can I ask you something? I've been wondering about it this whole time…

Chika

What's up?

Player

Why'd you suddenly decide to give presents to everyone in Aqours? I mean, it's not like there's some anniversary or any kind of special day, right?

Chika

Special days…happen all the time.

Chika

Aqours performed at an event not too long ago. We were all really jazzed about it, but it was brutal to prepare for…

Chika

When it started getting down to the wire and we still hadn't finished, I started panicking a little.

Player

That…sounds rough.

Chika

Yup. But everyone kept encouraging me and saying it'd be all right. Somehow we managed to finish in time and the event went off without a hitch…

Chika

But I constantly rely on everyone else. For live shows, at practices, and even in my regular life.

Chika

There are a million things I could never do all by myself, but it all manages to work out somehow because I've got everyone else with me.

Chika

I think having supportive people around is incredibly special! I just wanted to show everyone that I really appreciate that specialness…

Kanata

So that's why you thought up the idea to give them presents.

Chika

Oh, but I'm not trying to say we'll be even once I give them out or anything! It's sort of like a…declaration? I think? That I'll keep doing my best!

Player

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. I see. Still… Kanata, can you believe her?

Kanata

Tell me about it. Who knew Chika was this dense?

Chika

Huh? Wh-What?! D-Did I say something strange?

Player

(Chika's constantly helping everyone else just as much… But I guess she's the only one who doesn't realize it.)
