Ayumu #427: Airsoft Match: Round 2

Ayumu

Next Sunday… Yeah, looks like I'm free. All clear!

Player

Then it's settled! I can't wait. Those school idols are really popular right now, so their live shows sell out in a flash.

Ayumu

In that case we'd better head out bright and early. What time train should we—

Ayumu

Oh, I just got a text.

Ayumu

*Giggle* I see.

Player

Who texted you? Did they write something funny?

Ayumu

It was Ruby. She's going to another airsoft game.

Player

Airsoft?

Ayumu

Yes. I told you that Mari invited me and Kasumi to play a round of airsoft, right?

Player

Yeah, you did! It sounded like a lot went down there. Kasumi said she was tricked, then Maki sniped her…

Player

Then that kicked you and Ruby into high gear, or something like that? Have you always been good at those kinds of games, Ayumu?

Ayumu

No, um, I'm not good at them, but things just got intense. Kasumi was pretty worked up when she told that story, so don't believe every word she said.

Ayumu

A-Anyway, it sounds like Ruby's found a bunch of other places to play besides the one we went to with Mari.

Ayumu

Ah, there's another text. This one's from Mari.

Player

Inviting you to an airsoft game?

Ayumu

Yup, you guessed it.

Player

Seriously?!

Ayumu

Yeah. She wants to know if I'm interested in playing again. She said that this time all of Aqours are coming, so why don't all of Nijigasaki come too?

Player

That sounds fun! Especially since I couldn't make it last time. I wanna see you in action mode!

Ayumu

Ugh! I told you, don't believe every word!

Player

But you look so cool in my imagination! Alert with your gun at the ready, concealed in the shadows…

Player

Tense, but still playing it cool. And then I'm there, at your back, protecting you. Kind of like your partner.

Ayumu

That…could work. Definitely. If there's anyone I'd want watching my back, it's you. I trust you more than anyone.

Ayumu

Honestly, even outside of airsoft, I'd only ever pick you.

Player

I'm so excited! Oh yeah, I've gotta ask the others if they're free.

Ayumu

Hey! You have to show me you can look just as cool as me if you're gonna watch my back!

Option 1: “You told me not to believe all that.”

Player

Hm? Didn't you say I wasn't supposed to believe all that?

Ayumu

I really might go all out if it's for your sake, you know? Perhaps I'll go even wilder than I did last time. *Giggle*

Option 2: “I'd better practice my aim!”

Player

I definitely will! I'd better practice my aim. I guess I'll ask Shizuku if the Theater Club has any prop guns. I wonder if one of the members could coach me.

Ayumu

I-I'd definitely be able teach you! I've at least experienced it once!

Player

Ooh, I'm excited! I can't wait until—hey, when was it again? The airsoft game?

Ayumu

Right, good point. I need to check about that. Wait a moment, I'll ask.

Ayumu

I got a reply. Let's see…

Ayumu

N-Next Sunday.

Player

N-No way! That means I can't go this time either!
