Heart-Sparkling Jewelry Ep. 1
Setsuna
Is that a promotional video?
Shioriko
Yes. I have some friends that make handmade jewelry, and they told me they want to make a promotional video.
Ai
Wow, that's interesting. But why do they want to make one of those?
Shioriko
I think the best way to understand the appeal of jewelry is to hold it for yourself, but there aren't that many opportunities to do it in person.
Shioriko
So they thought through a promotional video, they could at least make people aware of its existence.
Shioriko
Ai, Setsuna… How would you feel about appearing in the video?
Ai
Ooh. I'd be glad to help you with that! Right, Setsu?
Setsuna
I'd like to help you out, but…are you sure I'm good enough?
Setsuna
When I think of jewelry, I think of it being shown off by models…
Shioriko
They told me they'd really like you two to help.
Shioriko
They made this jewelry based on the concept of “Becoming who you want to be.”
Shioriko
And they said that Ai, who wants to put smiles on everyone's faces, and Setsuna, who wants to tell everyone about the things she loves, are a perfect fit for that idea.
Setsuna
Is that so? In that case, I suppose I don't have much choice.
Setsuna
I'd be happy to grant their request!
Shioriko
I'm glad to hear that.
Ai
So how are we going to do this shoot?
Shioriko
I'll talk to my friends and hammer out the details later.
Shioriko
For now, I'll play director and camera operator.
Setsuna
So you won't be appearing in the video?
Shioriko
That's right. My role is behind the scenes.
Ai
You've gotta appear too, Shio-ti! I'll help!
Shioriko
I'm happy to hear you say that, but this is just an initial tryout, so I think it's best if we don't squeeze too many things in.
Shioriko
Since I accepted this job, I want to make sure it goes smoothly and turns out well.
Ai
I see. I guess that's how it's got to be then.
Setsuna
Let's perform all the harder to make up for Shioriko's absence!
Shioriko
Thank you.
Shioriko
I've asked a few other people to help too.
Shioriko
Let's make this a great video!
