Nozomi Ep. 20: My Dear Family
Nozomi finds not only ÎĽ's but everyone in Nijigasaki and Aqours more and more precious to her as time goes on. Her emotion-filled sub-unit live show begins now.
Nozomi
The day's finally here. We practiced a whole bunch for our show as lily white.
Rin
Yup! We also practiced with all of Aqours, so I feel like we can borrow some power from them.
Player
…I just realized, I haven't seen Umi around for a while now.
Umi
E-Everybody, please be calm!
Rin
Whoa! Where've you been, Umi?! I think you're the one who should calm down.
Umi
*Gasp* How unbecoming of me! My apologies.
Umi
It's just that I've gotten word of some suspicious people in attendance at our show.
Player
Suspicious people?! Suspicious in what way?
Umi
If I remember correctly, they're a group of fierce-looking high school girls wearing sunglasses…
Rin
What?! Is everything going to be okay?
Umi
C-Calm down! If push comes to shove, I will go and settle the matter.
Player
It'll be a problem if this affects the sub-unit live show, so I'll go and have a look.
Nozomi
No, actually… I don't think you need to do that.
Player
What do you mean, Nozomi?
Nozomi
We should all go and introduce ourselves to them!
Rin, Umi
Whaaaaaat?!
[Fade in/out.]
Mari
Hello! We all came to watch lily white's live show!
Player
D-Don't tell me the rumors about the suspicious high school girls wearing sunglasses were…
Dia
What did I say?! I told you that we'd stand out, Mari! I suppose it was rather amusing, though.
Rin
So, you're saying that it was the Aqours girls this whole time?!
Umi
It was?! Goodness me, please don't startle us like that!
Chika
Ahahaha! It's payback for you spying on us! We're here to steal away lily white's performance today!
Nozomi
That sounds great! Steal all you want from our performances! In return for that…
Riko
What do you want from us?
Nozomi
I want you to enjoy yourselves at our live show a whole bunch before you leave today! That's the condition for our trade!
Mari
Sounds great! That's a condition I can get behind!
Rin
We discovered some new charms of our own when we practiced with everyone in Aqours!
Umi
We're planning for the three of us to give it all we have and make this live show a fun one!
Nozomi
We're going to include all of the power that we borrowed from you girls in Aqours to make our live show fully charged with power!
Chika
Yeah!
[Fade in/out.]
Player
That was a surprising turn of events… Did you know that everyone in Aqours was here, Nozomi?
Nozomi
Nope, but something told me they were.
Player
Really? All of the Nijigasaki girls said that they'd come to watch you guys too.
Player
You really are incredible, Nozomi. You keep on getting all the school idols around you involved.
Nozomi
You think so? Well, actually… I have started to think that maybe I'm meant to be a school idol.
Nozomi
When I first started out as a school idol, I just figured that I'd be happy if I could have some fun.
Nozomi
But now, it feels like the world has changed because I've found what I want to do and know the joys of being able to perform.
Nozomi
And I have all of the people close to me. My dear friends… Actually, no. I can go as far as to call them my family.
Nozomi
That obviously includes you too, you know?
Nozomi
Performing as a school idol makes me feel relieved somehow. It's become almost like a home to me, without me even realizing it.
Player
Nozomi…
Option 1: “You're able to be yourself, right?” |
---|
Player Oh, I see! So this is a place where you're able to be yourself? Nozomi Yup. I'd love it if you're able to see me for who I really am as well! |
Option 2: “I want to stay with you, forever.” |
Player I want to stay together with you forever. I want to keep cheering you on from closer than anybody else while you perform as a school idol. Nozomi Thanks! Your feelings have made their way to me, safe and sound. |
Nozomi
Ever since you started supporting me, I've found so many things that I'd like to try. I feel like I can be honest with myself now as well.
Nozomi
So, let me say this again… Thank you!
Player
I should be thanking you, Nozomi! I have high hopes for your sub-unit live show!
Nozomi
Just leave it to me! I'm going to make sure that eeeeeeveryone enjoys themselves!
