It looks like the shoot's about to start, everyone.

Okay!
We gotta get focused. This shoot's really important!

Right. The weather and staff are both nice, so I'm sure we'll be able to shoot a wonderful video.

So, let's all do our best today.

Y-Yeah, our best...

Our best...

Are you two feeling nervous?

Oh, umm...
I'm a little worried about my acting skills.

I see...
The director did ask you to act a bit cool and mature for this.

Exactly... I'm not sure how I'm going to do...

I'm not sure about my lines either...
Our voices aren't going to be recorded for this video, but we're still supposed to recite everything.

I practiced a lot, but I really have no idea how I'm going to do...

D-Don't worry!
It'll be okay as long as we get the right feel, they said.

Yeah, but...

(They're both so nervous...)

(I suppose that's only natural, since we haven't really done anything like this before. To be honest, I'm a bit anxious myself...)

(I have to do my best to get the ball rolling...! Especially since the shoot begins with the scene I'm in.)

We'll be starting momentarily!
Please take your position, Ms. Mochizuki!

O-Okay! Thank you...!

(My scene involves me suggesting to the others that we take a break while holding a bottle of cider...)

(That's my only line, but I need to stay focused. The director told me to smile and act natural...)

(Oh, those two are watching me. They seem a bit worried...)

(I really need to do my best and help them relax...!)

Alright, rolling in...!
Three, two, one...

“Let's take a bweak, everyone.”

*Gasp*

U-Uhh... Oh no...

(H-How did my tongue get all twisted...?!)

(I was being so careful not to let that happen!)

Hee... Hehe...!

Haha! It's okay, Hona! Just try to relax!

Don't worry. Your smile was beautiful.

Just take a deep breath. You're too tense.

No, this is so embarrassing...!

Hehe. It's okay if you get tongue-twisted, since we're not recording your voice.

I-I'm so sorry...!

And scene! Okay, that looked good!

Th-Thank you very much...!

Nice work, Hona!

*Sigh*
Getting tongue-twisted right off the bat was so embarrassing...

But you did great after that.

Yeah, I thought you gave a nice smile.

Y-You think so...?
It felt like my face was beet red the entire time...

(I really wanted to get things off to a good start...)

I think you actually helped me relax, Honami.

Huh...?

Yeah, I agree!
We realized that the staff wouldn't get mad at us if we messed up!

Wait, did you do that to help diffuse the tension?

N-No, I didn't!

Haha!
Hehe.

Oh, I think we're starting the next scene!

The one with Ichika and me?

Yeah, we need to make use of the momentum Honami's given us.

Right. Then, we'll be going.

(They do seem much more relaxed now.)

(I'm still not sure how I should feel about that, after stumbling right out the gates...)

But I'm glad Ichika and the others are smiling now.
