An

Listen

Okay, Akito should be...
Oh, hey, there you are!

2

Akito

Listen

Oh, you're here.
3

An

Listen

You said that the track's coming along nicely. Can I hear it? I really want to...!
4

Akito

Listen

Calm down. Yes, it's coming along, but I've only built its foundation.
5

An

Listen

Its foundation...
So, like the drums and beat...?
6

An

Listen

Oh, you can leave coming up with cool ideas to me! I'm sure I'll think of something!
7

Akito

Listen

Okay. Anyway, I'll play it now.
8

Akito

Listen

What do you think...?
9

An

Listen

Yeah, it totally goes with our “Silence & Action” theme!
10

An

Listen

Especially the “Silence” part! That was so awesome! It's like it resonated with my entire body!
11

Akito

Listen

Yeah, I did work pretty hard on that part.
12

An

Listen

Also... Hmm... Oh.
13

An

Listen

We might be able to capture “Action” better with the intro by having it start quiet, then explode!
14

Akito

Listen

What? But it already sort of does that.
15

An

Listen

I'm saying we can emphasize that more! It starts out quiet as it is, right? I think we can really make it pop after building up all that anticipation.
16

Akito

Listen

No, I... Wait, what do you mean...?
17

An

Listen

What? You know exactly what I mean.
Start quiet and end with a bang!
18

Akito

Listen

So... How exactly do you want to make that happen?
19

An

Listen

How exactly...?
Hmm... Can't we think of that together?

Kotaro

Listen

What in the world are you two talking about? Something about a quiet explosion...?
21

An

Listen

Kotaro! Were you listening to our conversation just now?
22

Kotaro

Listen

I only heard part of it.
I got really confused after hearing, “Start quiet and end with a bang!”
23

Akito

Listen

We were working on the new song for our event, and this one started saying all these weird things.
24

Kotaro

Listen

Oh, that's what you guys were doing?
Mind if I listen to it? I might get a better idea of what you're talking about if I did.
25

Akito

Listen

Sure, go for it.

26

Kotaro

Listen

I see...
27

Kotaro

Listen

Yeah, now I understand.
I guess it could have a better bang.
28

An

Listen

See? Kotaro gets it!
29

Kotaro

Listen

I think I do.
Akito, you probably shouldn't hold back so much here.
30

Akito

Listen

Why is this my fault all of a sudden?!
Ugh... Isn't there anyone else I can discuss this with?
31

An

Listen

Hey, what's that supposed to mean?!
What's so bad about us?!
32

Kotaro

Listen

Yeah, what she said!

33

Tatsuya

Listen

Alright, you two. Quit teasing, Shinonome.
34

Akito

Listen

Finally, someone who'll understand...
Please, help...
35

Arata

Listen

I decided to eavesdrop a bit since it seemed like you two were talking about something interesting. But I think An's trying to say how...
36

An

Listen

Yeah, that! Varying the tempo!
It should sound a lot quieter in the beginning and...
37

An

Listen

We can increase the number of notes for the chorus. BOOM! Like a huge explosion of energy!
38

Akito

Listen

Why couldn't you say that before?! Ugh...
39

Arata

Listen

Still, you two seem to make tracks in a very interesting way.
40

Akito

Listen

We were just discussing how to make it better while listening to it.
41

An

Listen

But Akito was having trouble understanding what I was trying to say.
42

An

Listen

Honestly, you brushed off my comment like it was nothing but hung on Arata's every word.
43

Kotaro

Listen

Yeah, Akito, you big bully!
44

Akito

Listen

Tono's comment was completely different from what you two said!
45

Akito

Listen

Also, you started messing with me partway through.
46

An

Listen

Huh? No, I wasn't...
47

An

Listen

Still, Akito, you're pretty stubborn.
I think you should relax and have more fun with this.
48

An

Listen

Anyway, back to our song!
