Ch. 40 Ep. 7: Late Night Q&A Session!
After enjoying it to the fullest, the School Idol Club members leave the service area. Back on the minibus, a game of Q&A sparks some lively conversation.
Kasumi
Grrr… I can't believe I lost!
Player
You were staring at the Joker, Kasumi. It was way too obvious.
Shioriko
I felt so bad for you that I almost took the Joker for myself.
Kasumi
Then you should have!
Shizuku
Now, now, Kasumi, it's every girl for herself out here!
Kasumi
Agh, that's enough of that! No more Old Maid! Let's do something else!
Mia
What should we play next, then?
Ai
How about a game of Q&A? I have a good app for it, look! If I just tap here…
Setsuna
Oh, it randomly displays a topic. That looks like fun!
Lanzhu
Ooh, yay! I'm up for that!
Ai
Okay! Now then… Here's the first question! “What is the single most moving thing you've ever experienced?”
Lanzhu
That's easy! The first time I saw everybody's live show at the School Idol Festival!
Lanzhu
That's when I first realized that I wanted to be a school idol with everyone else in Nijigasaki!
Kanata
*Giggle* Aww, shucks.
Mia
For me, I think it was when Rina came looking for me when I was losing my motivation.
Mia
I was so glad she did that.
Rina
Mia…
Mia
Ugh, forget I said that. This is the problem with nighttime! I always end up talking about something embarrassing!
Karin
Aww, but I'd love to hear more of your embarrassing stories.
Mia
Absolutely not! Stop being weird.
Mia
C'mon, let's hear the next topic!
Ai
Here we go, then! Ta-da! “What's the most challenging thing you've ever experienced?”
Kasumi
Well, that would have to be when the School Idol Club was in danger of being shut down! It was a nightmare until Prez and Ayumu showed up!
Emma
You really did your best to protect the clubroom, Kasumi. I'm sorry for leaving you to go it alone.
Kasumi
Urgh… B-But you did leave a letter for me. I just didn't read it…
Kasumi
Ugh, forget that, too!
Ai
Okay, next one! “What's the most fun you've ever had?”
Ayumu
There's so many things, but making the promo video together with everyone in Nijigasaki was super fun.
Shizuku
I agree. Everyone in the Theater Club told me working on the promo video was so inspiring, and that really got me fired up for the next performance!
Shioriko
Yes. That promo video really filled the entire school with energy.
Ayumu
How about you?
Player
Me? I… Let's see…
Player
The thing that moved me the most has to be the School Idol Festival.
[Fade in/out.]
Player
The whole thing felt like a dream, right from the opening act with everyone together!
Player
Ayumu used to be so shy, so I couldn't believe how confident she was. And Ai was shouting about how much fun she was having with all her might…
Player
Shizuku instantly drew the audience into her world, then Kanata stole everyone's attention with her cuteness…
[Fade in/out.]
Player
Not to mention…
Ayumu
*Giggle* You have so many good memories of us, huh?
Ayumu
I can't tell you how happy that makes me feel.
Player
Yeah… Th-That's right! I'm such a huge fan of all of you, so…
Kaoruko
Hey, you guys! If you don't get some sleep now, tomorrow's gonna be a real slog!
Lanzhu
No way! I'm not the least bit sleepy! You all feel the same, right?
Lanzhu
…Oh?
Emma
Shhh…
Kanata
Mia and Rina are already in dreamland!
Karin
Kasumi, Shizuku, and Shioriko too!
Setsuna
I think we'd better get some shut-eye too.
Ai
Uh-huh!
Kanata
Q&A was so much fun. I wanna do it again tomorrow!
Karin
For sure. It's nice to learn how everyone really feels.
Emma
I'd love to know how you really feel, Karin.
Ayumu
I'm curious, too.
Karin
I'd personally like you to tell us how you really feel too, Ayumu.
Karin
You know, about you-know-who…
Ayumu
K-Karin?!
Karin
*Giggle* Just kidding!
Kaoruko
Okay, okay. That's enough chit-chat for today. We packed blankets, so lay them out and get to sleep. G'night!
