Eli Ep. 24: To Tell the Truth
Seeing Ayumu overcome her weaknesses, Eli realizes the true appeal of school idols. In order to convey this appeal, Eli sets about producing a newspaper about them.
Eli
First, choose an approximate layout, then place the picture… There.
Player
There are so many things you have to balance when making a newspaper, huh?
Eli
Yeah. It's more difficult than I thought, but having you here is really reassuring. All of the pictures you took are fantastic as well.
Player
Thank you! I couldn't have done it without your help.
Eli
I'm planning on putting Ayumu's article here. I'm having some trouble deciding which picture to use, but what do you think?
Player
Hmm, let me see. Yeah. I think the one of Ayumu practicing is good, don't you?
Eli
Yeah, I agree. That was the moment that drew my attention the most.
Eli
Okay, so I'll enlarge the photo and put it in. It should be good right about here…
Player
What about the text? Do you have something in mind?
Eli
Yeah. “The sight of a school idol seizing her dreams and refusing to give up is more beautiful than anything else—it never leaves people's hearts.”
Eli
I was trying to think of something that would show the charms of Ayumu and school idols at the same time.
Player
Only you could do that, Eli. I think it's great!
Eli
Once they see Ayumu putting in so much effort, even more people are bound to get interested in school idols.
Player
For sure. Ayumu's charms are definitely connected to the charms of school idols as a whole.
Eli
Even so… Seeing Ayumu practice so much to overcome all those hurdles… It made me realize what a wonderful school idol she really is.
Player
I totally agree! Ayumu is definitely wonderful and amazing and all that, but…
Player
You're a wonderful school idol too, Eli.
Eli
Huh?
Player
Eli…
| Option 1: “I love how serious you are about everything!” |
|---|
| Player Take making this newspaper for instance. You take everything seriously and I think that's amazing! Eli Thank you. No matter what it is, I want to face it head-on. |
| Option 2: “You're the ideal school idol!” |
| Player I think you're the ideal school idol! Eli Do you really think so? Then I have to work hard not to disappoint your expectations. |
Eli
But I must say… You always blurt out things like that. If you keep complimenting me I'm going to start blushing.
Eli
Still… Your words made me very happy.
Eli
Even though you're not a school idol, you still support us with your whole heart.
Eli
I really admire you. Thank you for always being here for us.
Player
Eli… I'm happy that you're here for me as well.
Eli
*Giggle* Thank you.
Eli
Well then, shall we get this newspaper over and done with?
