An

Oh, finally. Over here!

2

An

I forgot to mention this during school, but thanks for helping me out yesterday.

3

Akito

It was about us as a team, so it's fine.

4

Toya

Exactly.

5

Toya

So have you spoken to Azusawa about us entering into STAY GOLDEN again?

6

An

Not yet because I plan on telling her in person. We can bring it up with her once she gets here.

7

Akito

Alright.

8

An

But STAY GOLDEN. It's already that time of year again, huh?

9

An

You guys sort of just dropped it on me yesterday, but I am starting to think it's a good opportunity for us.

10

Akito

See?
This sort of thing's also what you and Kohane are good at, right?

11

Akito

You surprised us once already so...

12

An

Huh? Ohh...

Sound Effect: Play

13

Kohane

We have the resolve.

14

Kohane

So I won't run away anymore!

15

An

We're the Vivids! Did everyone enjoy the show?!

16

An

We may be new at this, but one day we're going to throw an event that'll surpass even RAD WEEKEND! We hope you'll be there to support us!

17

An

Yeah, that time...!

18

Toya

I felt the same way that time too, but Azusawa really has been improving at an astonishing rate.

19

Akito

Yeah, and we're not about to just let her leave us behind.

20

An

I know.

21

An

Man, I've been here this whole time thinking I know so much about Kohane...

22

Akito

But we don't have a choice since that's how she feels.

23

An

Still...

24

Toya

Wait, didn't you say that you talked to MEIKO about this before coming to us?

25

Toya

How did that go?

26

An

Um... She said Kohane the kind of person that likes to see the good in others.

27

An

And that she should believe in the good within herself.

28

Akito

The good within yourself, huh? If someone told me that, I probably wouldn't know where to start...

29

Akito

I mean, the good you see in others is sort of what you're missing yourself, right?

30

Akito

It might be easier to think about it the other way around like, Why can't I do what that other guy can?

31

Toya

...

32

An

Hmm...
Yeah, this is a tough one.

33

An

Oh, why don't we come up with as many good things as we can about her and tell her about them?

34

Akito

Huh?

35

An

We can make it easier for Kohane to see the good in her if we just tell her about just how awesome she is!

36

Toya

I see. I understand the general idea of what you're trying to do.

37

An

Yes! Okay, how about...?

38

An

First, she's obviously the best partner ever! Second, she's like this adorable little animal that becomes a super cool singer when she gets up on stage!

39

An

And it's so cute how she nibbles on her food or leaves the things she likes most for last! Also...

40

Akito

...

41

An

Why are you making that face?

42

Akito

You started with stuff that could be said about anyone and ended by just saying how cute she is...

43

Toya

You may want to be more objective and describe her using a more diverse vocabulary.

44

An

Hmm... More objective, and a diverse vocabulary...

45

An

Wait, why don't you guys try telling her instead of me?

46

Akito

If it ever comes up.

47

An

Hey, she's your teammate too.
Help her out, alright?

48

Akito

Again, if it ever comes up.

49

Akito

I mean, how would you feel if we just started ranting and raving about what we like about you?

50

An

How would I feel...?

51

Akito

See?

52

Toya

In Azusawa's case, she may feel happy for a moment but also startled or surprised at the same time.

53

Akito

Dude, there's no one out there that would just take random compliments seriously.

54

An

Right...

55

An

So I guess that means kicking butt at STAY GOLDEN's the best way to go then...

56

Kohane's Voice

Hello.

57

An

Oh, it's Kohane!

58

Toya

Okay, like we planned. Talk about STAY GOLDEN.

Got it!

An

(Alright, this is an event I want to get back at too...!)

61

An

(And I have to support my partner in whatever ways I can! Especially now!)
