Shioriko Ep. 4: What I Really Want

Unlike the other members, Shioriko has yet to find what she believes in as a school idol, and is unsure about what her song should encompass. You and Setsuna talk it over with her.

Player

Shioriko, I'll leave the file you asked for right over here.

Setsuna

Here are the documents concerning club activities. They are categorized by club. Please look over them when you can.

Shioriko

Yes, thank you. I appreciate the help.

Setsuna

No need to thank me, I'm just handing things over to the new student council president. My apologies, I should have done this task sooner.

Shioriko

I should apologize, too. I kept putting this off because I had been so busy.

Shioriko

The two of you really are exceptionally competent. I can see it so clearly now that we are all working together like this.

Shioriko

What do you say? You can still do your club activities, but what do you say to helping me out with student council work on a regular basis?

Player

I'll help you in any way I can.

Setsuna

You'll be run ragged with student council work, club activities, and all of your lessons, Shioriko. If there's ever anything I can do to help, please do not hesitate to ask.

Shioriko

Thank you.

Player

No problem. If your student council workload is lighter, you'll have more time to focus on our club activities.

Shioriko

Yes, club activities…

Setsuna

Shioriko?

Shioriko

Um… I have given it some thought since we last spoke, and I think that I might not be cut out to be a school idol.

Player

What? Why?!

Shioriko

I don't…believe in school idols the way the others do.

Player

Believe? You only have to want to be a school idol to become one!

Setsuna

Hm… Shioriko, what made you decide to join us in the first place?

Shioriko

My reason? Well… I was quite drawn to how your rigorous practicing every day created such a polished performance, and how you moved so many people emotionally.

Shioriko

I thought that maybe I could learn to express my own feelings better if I tried being a school idol.

Setsuna

After you express your feelings, what then?

Shioriko

After that? Even if it's just a little bit, I want to make the world a better place than it is now. I don't want anyone to be unhappy.

Shioriko

I know that sounds ridiculous.

Option 1: “It doesn't sound ridiculous.”

Player

It doesn't sound ridiculous. It's really great!

Shioriko

But still, it is an unreachable dream.

Option 2: “That's a big dream.”

Player

That's a big dream.

Shioriko

It's also very vague.

Setsuna

Oh, I love it! How wonderful, Shioriko! I think that's what makes you so amazing!

Shioriko

Setsuna?

Setsuna

Most people don't have enough motivation to want to change the world, but you really want to do it! I think you should be sharing those feelings with everyone, Shioriko!

Player

Setsuna's right. If you have a clear idea of what you want to achieve, you should go for it!

Shioriko

You don't think I'm being unrealistic, or reckless?

Player

Why would we? You're our friend, and it's your dream. Of course we're gonna want to help you achieve it.

Setsuna

Exactly! I am so happy you shared your dream with us!

Shioriko

Th-Thank you! I am so glad I talked to the two of you.
