*Sigh*

I'm done polishing the cups and saucers, MEIKO.

Thank you for doing that, Miku.
I really appreciate it.

*Sigh*

I'm sorry, but would you mind also putting them back up on the shelf for me?

Actually, I was just about to.

...

Will you two please stop ignoring me already...!

I'm sorry, but we're busy here.

So am I!
You have no idea what it's like being this bored!

At this rate, I'm going to end up an unhappy husk of what I used to be.

You poor thing.

Since you're so bored, why don't I get you a drink and a snack?

Yay♪ Oh, but...
I'll be bored again after I'm done.

*Sigh*
If only Kohane and the others were here.

There's nothing we can do about that since they're probably performing in an event somewhere right now.

Also, they come by fairly often to take breaks and practice on their own.

Yes, but I want to have more fun!

More fun...?

*Sigh*
If only we could do something again like we did during Valentine's Day...

Wait, that's it...!
We can have one ourselves!

Huh...?

So, I'm happy to announce that we'll be having a photo contest to see who wins the Crase Cafe Cup♪

Crase Cafe Cup? Does that mean you're hosting this, MEIKO?

No, she just wanted it in the title because it sounded “cool”...

A photo contest? Like the one Kohane and Toya entered? That sounds like fun!

So, what are we supposed to do?

Alright, I'll start by explaining the rules!

We'll split into two teams of three, and each team will designate someone to be their model. After that, they'll put on makeup and have their pictures taken!

And the theme of this contest is Valentine's Day!

Aren't those the same rules as the photo contest Kohane and the others entered?

Yes, because it makes things easier♪

No, you just didn't want to come up with new rules.

Also true.

No, that's the only truth...

Anyway, let's start picking teams.
My little ladder diagram here will randomly assign us to teams, so write your names down for me. Also, the fastest team gets to claim the best spots to shoot!

It still feels like you're doing this all on the fly.

Alright, here are our teams.

We have Rin, Miku and myself in one!

With Len, MEIKO and KAITO in the other!

Just as a reminder, each team needs to choose a model and do their makeup so that it has a Valentine's Day feel to it!

Do we have any makeup to use?

Heehee. We're all set. Kohane let me borrow the makeup she used for the photo contest.

I also asked her and the others to be our judges.

Oh, you're more prepared than I realized.

By the way, also...

The winner gets chocolate parfaits brimming with the chocolates we have left over from Valentine's Day!

Chocolate parfaits?!

You always make sure to have only these sorts of things covered...

Of course.

Anyway, everyone, let's all put our best foot forward and see who takes the best picture!

Yeah!
