Honoka #533: Whatever the Story May Be
Honoka
I'm so excited about the next event! It's been so long since we've done a live show together!
Mari
I know. ÎĽ's, Nijigasaki, and Aqours will all stand together on the same stage as school idol groups from three different schools. I'm so excited, I can barely think straight!
Honoka
I'm so excited that I can't even sleep at night! The anticipation is driving me crazy!
Mari
Oh? Who was it that came crying to me today saying she got scolded for oversleeping?
Honoka
Oh yeah, that did happen. *Chuckle*
Honoka
But anyway, I am kind of nervous. I mean I'm always nervous before a performance, of course.
Honoka
We're not just singing, we're putting on a play too, right? I wonder if I can really pull it off. What if I have a lot of lines? I'd also be sad if I didn't have any, though.
Mari
Don't worry! I know you can do it, Honoka. It's the same as memorizing lyrics. You remember all of the lyrics that you've had to sing for ÎĽ's, don't you?
Honoka
Hmm… So, I just need to remember my lines as if they're lyrics! Thanks, Mari!
Mari
You're welcome! I'm sure you'll be fine, no matter what kind of performance you do.
Honoka
Setsuna is figuring out the details for the play. I wonder if she's busy writing the script now…
Mari
Maybe she's already finished. She offered to be in charge of the script before anyone else, and when we met about it, I think she already had a rough outline in mind.
Honoka
Setsuna reads a lot of manga and novels, so she's probably good at coming up with stories. I wonder what kind of genre the story will be… Fantasy, maybe?
Mari
It could be horror, sci-fi, suspense, or even action. It could be a post-apocalyptic thriller where people use machine guns to shoot zombies in the ruins of a city!
Honoka
I-I highly doubt that she… No, you're right, Setsuna would write something like that!
Mari
Together we'll protect the venue from the zombie hordes! We'll use our songs to eradicate the zombie virus and save the world!
Honoka
Wait, will there really be zombies?!
Mari
Well, whatever the story ends up being, I'm sure it'll be fantastic, wonderful, and exciting!
Honoka
You're right. With Setsuna writing it, I'm sure that even a scary story will end on a light-hearted, funny note!
Honoka
Oh, a group message… It's Setsuna!
Mari
“The script is done! It's a masterpiece born of my sweat and tears, written with all of my heart and soul!” Whoa, she's actually finished it!
Honoka
Oh, another message. Ahem, “Let's meet up again to go over the story. How does next Sunday sound?”
Mari
Sunday, huh? “That's…okay…with…me.” Reply sent!
Honoka
It looks like Sunday works for everyone else, too! “I'll…go…too… Can't…wait.” Sent!
Honoka
I'm super-duper, extraordinarily excited about it! I can't wait for Sunday to come!
