Honoka Ep. 17: Now I've Put My Foot in It!
Printemps has decided to have Hanayo serve as the main singer for their sub-unit live show. When Hanayo seems to have second thoughts, Honoka unthinkingly rebukes her.
Player
Is there anything special that you want to do for your sub-unit live show?
Honoka
There's lots of stuff I wanna do, but I wanna see Hanayo grab the spotlight most of all!
Kotori
Yeah, I want that too!
Hanayo
W-Well, about that. I've been thinking.
Hanayo
Don't you think people would have much more fun if Honoka got to perform more, instead of me?
Honoka
What?!
Player
I want to see Honoka perform as much as you do, but if she takes too much of the spotlight, people will end up seeing her as the lead singer.
Hanayo
Of course… And that would be no good.
Kotori
I really want to see Hanayo as the star of the show, but I could always have Honoka sing my solo part instead. Would that work?
Honoka
What?! No way! That would just cut into your stage time.
Kotori
I guess it would.
Player
Hanayo, are you worried about being the lead singer?
Hanayo
Yeah. I don't think I can pull off an amazing performance like Honoka can. I just don't have the confidence.
Honoka
You've got that totally wrong, Hanayo!
Hanayo
What?
Honoka
Calling me amazing and implying that you aren't… That's absolutely wrong!
Hanayo
*Gasp*
Honoka
Don't you see? You have so many amazing qualities!
Honoka
If there's stuff about me that's amazing, then there's plenty of stuff that's amazing about you and Kotori!
Hanayo
Honoka…
Player
I think Honoka's trying to say that everyone really wants to see you perform as the main attraction, Hanayo.
Hanayo
Right…
[Fade in/out.]
Honoka
*Sigh* Now I've really put my foot in it.
Player
Are you okay, Honoka?
Honoka
I think I might have said too much back there.
Honoka
I definitely came on way too strong when forcing my opinion on Hanayo.
| Option 1: “It's important to let others know what you're thinking.” |

| Player It's important to let others know what you're thinking. Though I guess Hanayo was a bit taken aback by how forceful you were… Honoka Yeah. I should have been a bit calmer when talking to her. |
| Option 2: “I'm sure you helped her understand how you feel.” |
| Player You wanted to tell her that there are lots of good things about her, right? I'm sure you helped her understand how you feel. Honoka Hmm. Maybe, I guess. |
Player
Whatever the reasoning, you clearly don't want things to carry on as they are. Maybe you should try talking with Hanayo again.
Honoka
Yeah! It's no good to just stand around and ponder like this. I'll be right back!
