*Giggle* This food! What a feast! Now where should I start?

Fried chicken, sautéed chicken and roast beef! There's also spaghetti and sushi here, too! Everything looks so tasty… I can't fit it all on my plate!

Emma, I understand that you want to eat a lot, but it's unbecoming to place so many different kinds of food on your plate all in one go at a cocktail party.

It doesn't look good and there's also a chance food will fall off your plate as you walk. The common etiquette is to have, at most, three to four different types of food.

Oh? So you DO know how to act at cocktail parties then, Umi.

I hastily looked it up after the toast. Now I have all the answers to any questions you may have!

What do I do? I've already piled up my plate…

You can't put back what you have already taken, so eat what you have and be more careful next time.

Okay. Time to eat!

Also, when you take food, proceed in a clockwise direction. Be mindful not to disrupt the line. And don't place warm foods and cold foods together on one plate.

Okaaay!

*Giggle* Looks like Umi's back to her usual self.

[Fade in/out.]

Ack, everyone at this party is so incredibly glamorous!

There are other models aside from Karin here, right? That group over there must be them. Wow, they look like people from a whole other planet.

Gah! What am I getting so intimidated for?! I am the perfectly flawless, most powerful, unrivaled fallen angel who will one day surpass the gods! Go forth! Rout them!

Oh my gosh, I knew it! You're the fallen angel Yohane, right? I'm a fan of yours and I watch your videos!

What? M-My videos? You're…a fan? R-Really?

Yes! Is it okay if I talk to you? I want to ask about so many things! Like the fortune-telling thing you did during your stream the other day!

Huh? A model? Me? No way! I really got asked!

A photo? W-Well, only if it's just one… *Giggle* I'm glad Karin taught me some poses!

*Chuckle* It looks like everyone's enjoying themselves.

What about you, Karin?

Ack! Nozomi, you scared me! That was really ninja-like of you creeping up on me without making a sound.

So you know my secret now, huh? That's right, I'm actually descended from ninjas, so erasing my presence is an occupational habit of mine.

That doesn't sound like a joke when it comes from you, Nozomi.

So, are you enjoying yourself, Karin? You've barely taken a sip from your drink after the toast. Is there something on your mind?

You got me. Is reading people's minds another one of your ninja abilities? Or is that what the cards told you?

Who knows? But I'd love to help if there really is something bothering you.

Thank you. It's okay, I really am enjoying myself. I just want to watch everyone instead of eating or drinking anything.

My invitations to today's party were really sudden, so I thought everyone would decline. Especially the girls from Aqours, since they'd have to come here from so far away.

I figured our schedules probably wouldn't align, but everyone still came. Just the thought of that fills me with so much joy that I couldn't be more satisfied.

Really? That puts me at ease, then.

I'm glad to hear it. Now you're free to enjoy yourself too. Wanna have another toast?

Sure. To a night of fun for all of us!

Cheers!
