Nico! Pick a cool pose to strike here!

Okay, you got it!

Ready—Nico-Ni!

…

Huh? You aren't making a very happy face, Nico.

We should've done this somewhere that'd make me look cooler!

But you told me you wanted to ride a merry-go-round…

And I figured it would be all right since you got an official seal of coolness from Hanamaru.

Yeah, but! This feels like a different kind of cool than how I usually am as a school idol.

I wanna be cool in a more noble, beautiful way. Cool enough to set an example for Eli and Maki!

Got it… So that's the kind of coolness you're aiming for.

You need to think these things through more from the start!

[Fade in/out.]

Hey, you guys! Don't you know that today's the day for BiBi's live show?!

I need the absolute best audience surrounding me to really strut my stuff. You should know that already, right?

If you do, then gimme a big cheer at the top of your lungs!

What was that?! You're all so quiet! Cheer louder! Loud enough that I can really hear you!

See? I knew you guys could do it!

I want you to party as hard as you can, right up until the end! You're in biiiiiiiiiig trouble if you don't!

[Fade in/out.]

Noooooo, I refuse! I'm Nico-Ni! I'm supposed to be the cutest idol of all, beloved by everyone!

Even though I wanna show off my cool side, I can't make myself do something like this! You think so too, don't you?!

Do I…?

If I were you, I'd wanna see the most perfect version of me up on stage… But you don't agree, huh.

Of course you do a perfect job onstage. I just think that you're also wonderful when you're offstage.

I've been thinking in my own way about that coolness of yours that Hanamaru mentioned.

I think it's really cool that you strive so hard to meet the high goals you set for yourself.

And I think it's also cool how you can give very clear, direct, and super-accurate advice to everyone.

So I don't just think you're cool as a school idol. I think you're really awesome as a human being.

As a human being?!

You just said that you wanted to be cool enough to set an example for Eli and Maki. But aren't you already cool in that way?

I think it'd be best if you took the aspects about yourself that are already cool and incorporate them into your school idol performance.

Eli and Maki said that you'd do great because of that coolness that you've had from the beginning.

You're cute, you're cool… Nico, you're incredible!

Am I really…that incredible?

Yes, you're incredibly incredible! The more I learn about you, the more charming things I notice.

W-Well, when you put it that bluntly it's…kinda embarrassing.

I was desperately searching for an ideal version of myself so that I could work on what I lack… But if you think I'm cool just the way I am, I believe you.

But you've gotta make sure to aaaaalways keep your eyes on me.

I'll trust what you say and try my best to tackle this new performance!
