Nico Ep. 17: Because I'm Not Alone

Nico continues to train in hopes of putting on a striking performance for the BiBi sub-unit live show. However, Kasumi tells her that, unlike Maki and Eli, she looks very uncool.

Player

Great work, Nico!

Nico

Thanks… *Sigh*

Player

Whoa, Nico, you look like you worked yourself to the bone. Did what Kasumi said get to you that much?

Nico

Urk. I-It didn't get to me at all!

Player

But she basically said you looked kinda dorky when she saw you practicing.

Player

I think you look plenty cool all the time, though. Even right now!

Nico

That isn't true!

Player

It's not?! Why not?

Nico

I'm not satisfied with that! I should be getting cooler and cooler as I go!

Nico

Because I'm not alone!

Nico

I have Eli and Maki with me, so I'm perfectly capable of being that cool as part of BiBi!

Player

Nico!

Option 1: “So you have a vision of who you want to be, do you?”

Player

So you have a vision of who you want to be, do you?

Nico

Yeah. And I have to make it there!

Option 2: “It's reassuring to have Eli and Maki with you, isn't it?”

Player

It's reassuring to have Eli and Maki with you, isn't it? They're there to support you.

Nico

I wouldn't call it support. It's more like we're comrades-in-arms. And I have your support too, meaning I can never get too down.

Player

Is there any way that I can help you?

Nico

No, I'm fine. The only way to tackle something like this is with lots of practice.

Player

I see…

Nico

Wait, how come you're getting gloomy about it?

Nico

I told you, I can do this! All you have to do is keep believing in me.

Player

Yeah, you're right. I'll keep cheering you on too, Nico!

Nico

That's the spirit!

[Fade in/out.]

Player

(Nico's working so hard. I hate not being able to do anything for her.)

Eli

My, my. So now you have a gloomy look on your face as well as Nico?

Player

Oh… Eli! Maki!

Maki

Is Nico still hung up on what Kasumi said about her?

Player

She's training hard to become the person she wants to be. Maybe you two could offer her some advice?

Maki

Do we really have to worry that much? It's Nico, I'm sure she'll be fine.

Eli

*Chuckle* I'm sure that she's very encouraged just by having you look after her.

Player

I hope so…

Eli

So just stay close to her.

Player

I will.
