Hmm… The cherry blossom-inspired song, huh?

Exactly. I tried writing one out but it still feels like something's missing. The only problem is, I can't figure out what.

There's a songwriter's dilemma for you.

I wonder what it still needs.

That certainly is a tricky question. What does it need?

Hmm. If we were talking about cherry blossoms, I'd try pickling them in salt, but…

To get the coumarin to come out, right?

That's right. The coumarin.

Coumarin, huh…

Could be coumarin…

Okay, hang on. The conversation's taking an odd turn here. Let's forget about the coumarin for a second.

Hmm. Thinking of cherry blossoms, the impression they give is all like spring, pink, pretty, happy…and that kind of stuff, I guess?

There are a bunch of different kinds too. Like Cerasus jamasakura, Cerasus iannesiana, or Prunus speciosa.

And there are seasonal phrases like spring chill or cherry-blossom days… We've got plenty of suggestions, but they'd probably be hard to use in songs.

Hmm…

Say, why don't we continue our evening stroll?

We might come up with something if we all put our minds together as we look at the cherry blossoms here.

Sure, let's do that.

Everyone… Thank you so much.

It's fine, don't worry about it! We're all school idols, after all.

Yep. Helping you make your dreams come true would make us all really happy!

Okay!

All right. Now that it's been settled, let's get a move on! Right, Kanata?

Zzz…

Wait, she's asleep! But she was awake just a minute ago!

Kanataaa! Wakey-wakey!

…Oh! After eating those sweets, I just felt so sleepy all of a sudden.

Time to go, Kanata. Come on, get up.

Whoa! No need to drag me!

…Actually, it's a lot easier this way. Drag me more, Kanan!

Geez! Walk on your own already!
