Ch. 49 Ep. 9: An Orange Angel
You head out for a shopping trip, and as you wander around town, errands complete, you happen to bump into Ai.
Player
Huh? Is that you, Ai?
Ai
Whoa, fancy running into you here! What's up? You out for a walk?
Player
Yeah, I'm going to buy a pair of earpads for my headphones.
Ai
Oh, you can buy replacements for those?
Player
Yeah, seems like it.
Player
Anyway, what're you up to?
Ai
I'm off to pay Misato a visit! She mentioned a new gelatin dessert shop the other day, so I thought I'd pick some up for her as a gift.
Player
Gotcha. Hey, do you mind if I come see her too?
Ai
Of course not! She'd love it if you tagged along.
Ai
But first stop: the dessert shop!
[Fade in/out.]
Misato
Wow, what a treat! I have a special guest today.
Player
I-I don't really count as a special guest!
Misato
No, you do. I hear you've been teaching Ai how enjoyable music is.
Ai
You betcha!
Misato
Ai keeps bragging to me about everything you do.
Ai
Huh?! Hey, Misato!
Misato
*Giggle* But it's true.
Ai
It's really not!
Ai
Or… Well, it kind of is.
Ai
Oh, whatever, I don't want to talk about this anymore!
Player
Ha ha ha. Well, it's all good things, I hope.
Player
How are you feeling, Misato?
Misato
I'm doing well.
Misato
My last tests weren't bad either.
Misato
Plus, since you and Ai paid me a visit today, I feel great!
Misato
I told everyone Ai was coming today. That's just how excited I was.
Misato
Would you like to talk with all the others like usual?
Ai
Oh, can I? I'd love to!
Ai
I've got so much I wanna say! I absolutely need to tell you guys all about Fishpuff's great adventure.
Ai
I bet it'll blow everyone's minds.
[Fade in/out.]
Player
Hey, Ai. I heard they all saw the video of your last live show!
Ai
What? Really?!
Patient A
Misato showed it to us.
Patient B
We had a watch party for it.
Patient C
You're what they call a school idol, right? I'd love to go to a live show myself someday.
Ai
You guys all watched me…
Misato
Not just once, either. We rewatched the video many times.
Patient A
We watch it every time Misato is here.
Ai
Wait, every time?
Misato
Heh heh… I mean, watching your live shows perks me up, after all.
Ai
Whaaaat? That's too sweet!
Ai
Hey, if the nurses give the okay, do you think I could put on a live show here?
Player
As long as you don't mind that it's from a phone speaker, you do have the ability to play music wherever you go.
Ai
Woo-hoo!
Ai
It won't be the same kind of sound as in a live show, but I'll sing my heart out and make it count!
Misato
Of course, we'd love that! I'll come with you to ask the nurses for permission.
Patient A
We'll tag along too.
Ai
Okay!
[Fade in/out.]
Ai
*Pant* *Pant*
Ai
Thank you all so much for listening!
Misato
Thank you, Ai! I knew it. Seeing you perform in person really is spectacular!
Ai
Heh heh. And your support was spectacular too!
