Karin #172: I Wanna Be Prim and Proper?
Kasumi
*Sigh* The two of them were so amazing.
Karin
What's wrong, Kasumi? That photo is making you sigh quite a bit.
Kasumi
It's a photo from Maki and Riko's recital! I was just thinking about how elegant and beautiful they looked.
Karin
Their performance was amazing as it was, but the sight of them playing the piano in their gorgeous dresses with such grace was incredible in its own right too.
Kasumi
I hope I can be like them someday…
Karin
*Giggle* That might be straying a bit too far from your persona.
Kasumi
Oh, I know! What if you became my producer and helped turn me into a more demure school idol?
Karin
You want me to be your producer?! But I wouldn't even know the first thing about being demure…
Kasumi
Well, figure it out! I'm already the cutest around, right? So then if we add a bit more modesty to the mix, it'd be like the cherry on top of a cute sundae!
Karin
Well, okay… I guess you could probably pull off a more demure and elegant image, depending on the situation of course.
Karin
Maybe a greeting like, “Good morning. Let's all do our best today.” Go on, give it a shot.
Kasumi
Goooood morning! I'm gonna give it my all today!
Kasumi
Wait, that's just the usual, cutesy Kasumin! C'mon, you gotta take this makeover seriously, Karin!
Karin
Hmm… Looks like I gotta try to think about this as if I were the one trying to pull off a more elegant style.
Karin
Kasumi. Might you be interested in studying with me after school today?
Kasumi
Y-Yes!
Karin
Yeah, no. That's definitely straying too far from my usual personality.
Kasumi
Grrr! How come YOU'RE acting all elegant now?! Whose makeover is this, anyway?!
Karin
Y-Yours?
Kasumi
You can't just go off and become Little Miss Fancy without me! It's not fair!
Karin
What's really not fair is how you manage to be so dang adorable…
Kasumi
Huh? What did you just say?
Karin
Uh, nothing! Come on, let's try it one more time!
