That was incredible, Len.
You played all the parts you were worried about so well.

She's right. Each note packed such a big punch. I got all excited just listening to you play!

Thanks.
I did practice those parts a ton.

Still, you seem way more motivated lately for some reason.

Yes, I've noticed that you've been practicing very late...

I mean, who wouldn't feel motivated after seeing a show like the one we saw?

The performance Miku and Ichika put on made me want to learn to play better.

Hehe. I see.

Come to think of it, the girls are officially pros now, right? What does that mean for them moving forward?

They have gone pro, but they've only just signed their contract. Apparently, there's still quite a lot that needs to be done before they make their big debut.

I'm very much looking forward to seeing what they accomplish as professionals.

Me too.
And I hope their new chapter starts off on a really good note.

Their new chapter...!

Oh, I really like the sound of that!

Wait, we should totally do something to cheer them on! Something that'll really pump them up!

Cheering them on seems fine, but what do you mean by “pumping them up”...?

You know...?

Miku-P, help!

Huh?!

Um... How about something fun and recreational? We could play hide and seek in the school or have a quiz tournament!

Saki might enjoy those...

I agree.
It'll be a nice break for them, and we should be able to have a fun time.

(A nice break...
Yeah, the girls have been super busy lately.)

(And they're only gonna get busier as they get ready to debut.)

(Hang on...
It's not like they're gonna have a lot of free time after they debut either, huh?)

(If anything, that's pretty much when they'll really start working as professional musicians...)

Len? Is something wrong...?

Hmm... Nothing's wrong...

But I just realized that the girls are gonna be working even harder as musicians now that they're pros.

Yes, that's very true.

So, why don't we do something for them that'll encourage them to do their best as pros moving forward?

For example...
We could put on a really amazing show for them!

A show for them?

Yeah! I bet it will get them excited about their future if we really put our minds to it!

(Just like how they lit this fire inside of me through their show!)

So...

Whoa! That's such an amazing idea!!

Hehe. See what I mean?

I'm all for it.
A show does sound more fun than playing some games with them...

Hey, you don't have to be that brutally honest.

I'm for it as well.

I agree with Len that a show seems like the best way to motivate the girls.

Oh, that's unfortunate. I was actually looking forward to having a quiz tournament and playing hide and seek.

Just forget about those, okay...?

Then, let's do it!

We're gonna put on a super awesome show that gets the girls really excited about their future!

Yeah!
Yes.
