Shioriko Ep. 2: The Hard Worker
Shioriko has become a new member of the School Idol Club. She works hard at practice, but sometimes needs to leave early. Why is that?
Player
One, two, three, four. One, two, three, four. Okay, that's good for now. Let's take a ten minute break.
Kasumi
Oof, that was tough. We never get to take it easy.
Setsuna
I am amazed at how well you are keeping up with us, Shioriko. For you not to be short of breath is astonishing.
Emma
Yes, and your movements are so graceful. I couldn't help but watch you, even though I should be focusing on my own moves.
Option 1: “I was in awe, too.” |
---|
Player I was in awe, too. Shioriko No, I still have much room for improvement. |
Option 2: “Aren't you tired, Shioriko?” |
Player Aren't you tired, Shioriko? Shioriko Please. By all means, do be more rigorous with your training. Do not stop here for my sake. |
Karin
She's so inspiring… I need to work even harder.
Shioriko
Oh, please excuse me. I must leave now for today.
Player
Wow, is it this late already? All right. Good work today.
Shioriko
Likewise, thank you. See you next time.
[Fade in/out.]
Emma
Shioriko goes home early sometimes, right? I wonder why?
Karin
She probably has a lesson to go to. Didn't Ai find out that she takes Japanese dance, tea ceremony, and flower arrangement lessons? Among other things, too.
Kanata
I can't believe she takes so many extracurricular lessons!
Ai
She takes a ton of lessons, she's in our school idol club, and she volunteers on the weekends… When the heck does she have time for student council stuff?
Ayumu
I think she said she does that work before club practice and during her lunch break. Lately, she even seems to come to school early to get her work done.
Shizuku
She's incredible… I don't think I could ever do all that, even if I were in her shoes.
Kasumi
Are you suuure she really takes all those lessons? I'll have to see it to believe it!
Kasumi
That settles it! Let's follow her!
Player
We're in the middle of practice, you know?
Ai
But I wanna see Shio-ti doing her lessons! Seriously, I really wanna follow her!
Setsuna
Practice is important, of course, but this might be a good chance for us to get to know Shioriko better.
Rina
I want to know too. Rina-chan Board says, “Restless.”
Player
*Sigh* Okay. Just for today though, all right?
Kasumi
Thanks, Prez!
[Fade in/out.]
Emma
This is the Japanese dance school that Shioriko goes to, right?
Ayumu
What a fancy building.
Kasumi
In we go!
Karin
W-Wait, Kasumi!
Kanata
Are you sure we should just barge into a fancy building like this?
Shizuku
You're right. We shouldn't just waltz on in.
Rina
Oh, look at this sign.
Setsuna
Let's see, it says, “Visitors may watch lessons in session. Please inquire at the reception desk.”
Karin
So as long as we talk to reception first, we can watch Shioriko's lesson?
Ai
Sweet! Let's go and watch!
[Fade in/out.]
Ayumu
Shioriko is so beautiful…
Shizuku
Yeah. I can't take my eyes off her elegant movements.
Rina
Shioriko really is amazing.
Kasumi
*Grumble* I can do that too, you know!
Ai
I doubt it.
Kasumi
*Sob*
Shioriko
…?
