Ch. 32 Ep. 1: Hunting for Hints
The rest of the Club members have grown closer to Lanzhu and Mia. Everyone has been building their skills and stamina for the Exhibition promo video, but ideas escape them. If discussions don't work, then it's time to search outside!
[Fade in/out.]
Player
Morning!
Player
Hey, Lanzhu. Looks like you're the first one here today.
Lanzhu
Good morning! That's right! I came here earlier than you today to welcome everyone!
Karin
But only because you had Emma wake you up.
Mia
I got woken up too… Every additional five minutes I can sleep is precious to me, but I had no luck today…
Emma
*Giggle* Lanzhu said she wanted to get here first, so everyone in the dorm ended up getting swept into her plan.
Lanzhu
Well yeah! The Nijigasaki dorm family is meant to help each other out whenever any of us have any trouble!
Emma
I brewed some black tea for everyone. This might help wake you up a little.
Mia
Oh! That's the stuff I gave you!
Karin
*Giggle* Looks like you're plenty awake even without needing to drink any tea.
Emma
I just had to pull out the matching mugs Mia bought for everyone and use them as soon as possible.
Lanzhu
Nothing beats drinking tea out of matching mugs! We absolutely need a set just for the Nijigasaki dorm family too.
Player
You sound like you're having so much fun living in the dorms. I'm kinda jealous.
Emma
What if you moved in too? We'd welcome you with open arms!
Ayumu
N-No! You can't!
Karin
Ayumu?
Ayumu
Ah! Good morning!
Ayumu
The dorm is…for people who can't get to school from home so you must control yourself! You have me to wake you up in the mornings anyway!
Mia
What's this, Little Baby? You can't get by without Ayumu's help? I thought you'd have it more together than that, but I guess I was wrong.
Player
Yeah, I guess I can't argue with that. Whenever I accidentally sleep in after pulling an all-nighter, Ayumu comes over to wake—
Kasumi
Wait. She goes into your ROOM to wake you up?!
Player
Oh! Hey, Kasumi. Morning.
Kasumi
Good morning!
Kasumi
I mean, no! Answer the question!
Player
Huh?
Kasumi
What do you mean, “huh”?! Does Ayumu go into your room to wake you up?!
Ayumu
Sooometimes I go in there, but I usually just call her. Right?
Player
Yeah. That's right.
Kasumi
Awww, but that still makes me jealous! I can give you a wake-up call too, Prez! You know I'll be there for you any time!
Player
*Laugh* Thanks, Kasumi.
Ai
Goooood mornin'! Whatcha all talking about? Sounds fun! Hey, hey. Can I get a morning call too?
Kasumi
But you jog in the morning, don't you?! I'm not awake THAT early!
Shizuku
Good morning, everyone. I could call you if you'd like, Ai? I'm an early riser because I have to take Ophelia on her walks.
Rina
I'd like a morning call. Rina-chan Board says, “Sleepy.”
Shioriko
Rina, you're swaying as you stand. Are you all right?
Setsuna
Girls! How about we go on a walk today to wake ourselves up? Is everyone here already?
Player
Um… Oh, Kanata's not here.
Mia
She's the one that needs a wake-up call the most.
[Fade in/out.]
Player
Ahhh, I'm so tired…
Setsuna
This is very rare. I don't hear you say that very often.
Player
*Laugh* I'm mentally tired. The classes I had this morning were really tough.
Shizuku
You're in the music course, aren't you? What kind of things did you have to do?
Rina
Come to think of it…I have no idea what the other courses do in their classes. I'm curious. Rina-chan Board says, “Sparkle!”
Player
I also want to know what classes for the other courses are like. Um, in the music course we…
[Fade in/out.]
Kanata
This is making me realize all over again that Nijigasaki really does offer a lot for us to study.
Shioriko
That's one of its selling points, after all. It allows those who wish to delve even deeper into their studies to do so.
Karin
That's why I decided to enroll here too.
Kanata
I get to study food design here, so I'm glad that I chose Nijigasaki.
Kasumi
Sorry to butt in when you're all so chilled out, but I don't think we can afford to be chill right now…
Player
Why?
Kasumi
We have to make our promo video for the School Idol Exhibition!
Ayumu
Right, we've been putting it off because we couldn't really think of any good ideas…
Lanzhu
But I suggested plenty of ideas! Were they no good?
Emma
They would be hard for us to pull off because they're so big in scale…I think.
Mia
It's more that it's ridiculous to think that riding a rocket to space and hosting a live show there is feasible.
Lanzhu
But I was serious! Don't you want to make the School Idol Exhibition the most exciting event ever too?!
Player
Speaking of excitement, when I went to look at the school idol fansite yesterday, I saw that they were hosting their own cheer campaign. It looked pretty impressive.
Lanzhu
There's a school idol fansite?! Where?! I want to see it!
Ai
Sure! Gimme a sec…
Ai
Wow! She was right! It looks like they've got something super interesting currently underway!
Kasumi
C'mon! I told you guys, we don't have the time to be playing around like this!
Kasumi
Oh, that looks like fun…
Karin
Hey, we should go and actively seek out inspiration for our promo video ourselves. We won't necessarily strike upon an idea just sitting around racking our brains over it.
Karin
I think this fansite's campaign could be a good start. Don't you think?
Setsuna
Hey! Look at this. They're recruiting helpers!
Player
Oh, I've been a helper for this site before. Remember when I went to that interview with ÎĽ's? That was to help this site.
Player
You guys still have practice and stuff, so I'll be our rep. I'll try signing up right away!
