Eli Ep. 14: We Volunteer!

Eli's school expulsion commotion is caused by Alisa's misunderstanding. You are relieved to find out that Eli is staying put when she approaches you seeking advice.

Player

Volunteering?

Eli

Yes. I've received official approval for the solo live shows now, but the chairwoman asked me to take on new volunteering work in exchange for her favor.

Alisa

Volunteer work? Like fundraising and that kind of thing?

Eli

That's right. Otonokizaka has always had a few active volunteering projects and there was just talk in the student council about adding more activities soon.

Eli

It's just that, the students always hold a fundraiser once a year. I was thinking of doing something different this time.

Eli

That's why I'm looking into some kind of volunteering that can be done solo. If you two happen to have any ideas, I'd love to hear them.

Player

Huh? Solo? Are you saying that you'll be doing it by yourself?

Eli

But of course! I was the one who went out on a limb on my own.

Player

What?! That's ridiculous.

Option 1: “We should all do it together!”

Player

I think it'd be better if we all volunteered together. We were only able to pull off the solo live show thanks to you, Eli.

Eli

You…might be right about that, but still…

Option 2: “I want you to rely on me more!”

Player

I might not be as reliable as you are, but I am here to support you, Eli. I wish you'd rely on me more.

Eli

*Giggle* I'm really reliant on you, you know? It was you who created this solo live show for us.

Player

Let's all volunteer together since everyone worked on these solo live shows together.

Player

I'm sure everyone in ÎĽ's will feel the same way too.

Eli

I understand what you're trying to say, but I think me volunteering on my own this time is more than enou—

???

Geez! I figured it'd be something like that!

Nozomi

Oh, Eli-chi. I thought you seemed off since this morning. We all need to make a collective decision when it comes to important things like that, you know?

Eli

Nozomi! And everyone else!

Honoka

I had no clue you'd ended up in that situation! I'm sorry for leaving the burden to you this whole time, Eli.

Kotori

We were able to perform our solo live shows thanks to your efforts, Eli.

Nico

It's so cold of you not to ask us for help when you're in a pinch!

Umi

I concur with Nico! This is not a problem that concerns you alone, Eli.

Eli

But I was the one who took it upon myself to do this…

Hanayo

We want to volunteer together with you, too.

Rin

I haven't really volunteered before, but it sounds like fun! I wanna give it a shot!

Alisa

Um! I think it sounds like fun, too!

Honoka

That's the little Alisa I know! You totally get us. While we're at it, I might ask Yukiho to help out as well!

Alisa

Yay, I'm looking forward to it!

Maki

We all want to volunteer together with you, Eli.

Player

Let's do it together, Eli!

Eli

Oh, girls! Thanks!

Nozomi

That means we gotta think of some kind of volunteer work that everyone can do, and not just Eli-chi on her own!

Alisa

What do you think would be good?

Player

If we're going to volunteer, it'd be great if it were something that'd be a good experience for ÎĽ's as well.

Eli

You're right. It would be worthwhile if we could combine the volunteer work with ÎĽ's' school idol activities.

Player

There's a lot of us so… I know! Let's do some cleaning!

Eli

Cleaning isn't a bad idea, but the cleaning around the school perimeter has always been managed by the student council.

Player

No, I don't mean cleaning around the school!
