Welcome, Ichi!

Pardon the intrusion.

Come on in♪
Hehe. I'm so happy about you staying over.

Hehe. I'm a little excited since I've never done a songwriting camp before.

Me too! It's too bad that Shiho and Hona can't come...

But we just gotta do our best to knock their socks off by writing an amazing song!

Yeah, let's do that!

Now, let's begin our inaugural songwriting camp♪

Hehe. You're making it sound so extravagant. It's just the two of us, remember?

Hey, we gotta hype ourselves up.
Anyway, let's start listening to the chord progressions we each came up with!

Okay, Ichi!
I sent my ideas over to your phone.

Thanks.
I'll send you mine now.

This is so cool!
I can't wait to hear what you came up with.

I spent a lot of time coming up with mine, so hurry! You gotta listen to them!

Alright. Then, why don't we start by listening to each other's stuff?

Okay!

Whoa... Ichi, this is so good!
They're so straightforward and powerful...
I bet we can turn this into a really amazing song!

Y-You think so?
But I'm glad you're saying that.

My hope for this song is that it'll help remind everyone about those who matter most to them and reinforce those bonds.

Really...?!
I like it since it's got you written all over it, Ichi.

Thank goodness...! I liked yours a lot too, Saki. It's really cheerful, but a little sad at times.

Hehe. So, mine's about being able to move forward regardless of any doubt or pain you might be feeling.

Hehe. Which is a nice reflection of your personality.

Now I really want to come up with a melody for this song...

Me too! So, let's get started!

Okay.
But being in the same room like this might make things a bit awkward...

So, can I use the living room?
I feel like we're going to distract each other if we're sitting right next to each other like this.

Oh, right...
That's too bad since you went to the trouble of coming over, but I guess we don't have a choice...!

Anyway, let's meet back up once we've both finished our songs!

Okay.
See you in a bit.

See you!
And let's do our best, Ichi♪

Alright...!
I've gotta do my best to come up with a really great melody!

(Hehe. This chord progression sounds so much like something Ichi would come up with...)

(A song to remind people about who matters most to them, and those bonds, huh...?)

(Based on my own feelings and this chord progression...)

Phew...

I think it's turning out pretty well!

It's a little rough around the edges, but the basic idea's there. I can show it to Ichi once I brush it up just a...

Huh? Who could that be? Did we get a delivery?

Coming!

What?! Shiho?! Hona?!

What are you two doing here?

Hehe. We wanted to do something for you both since you're working so hard.

So, Shiho and I decided to bring over some gifts.

It isn't much, but I stopped by the convenience store and grabbed some snacks for you two.

Here, take a look.

Oh, potato chips and chocolate cookies... Wait, there's more!

Oh, Ichi!
These say they're yakisoba bun flavored!

Look at that...
I didn't know they made these kinds of snacks.

I just happened to come across them.
Let us know how they taste.

Thanks, Shiho.

And I made some seafood curry. I was sort of wondering if you had a chance to eat.

*Gasp*
We totally forgot about dinner!

Yeah. We were so focused on songwriting.

Hehe. That sort of seems normal when it comes to writing songs.

In any case, I'm glad we brought these over.

Hehe♪ Thanks, you two!

Oh, I know!
Why don't you both stay and eat?!

Since we're all here, we should have dinner together!

Right, Ichi?!

Yeah. If you both have time, would you be willing to stay?

Then, wanna stay for dinner?

Hehe. Okay.
Thank you for having us.

Mmm... This curry's really good.

You're such an amazing cook, Hona!
Also, I love how this is loaded with veggies! It's so filling!

Come to think of it, Saki, the curry your family makes always had a lot of vegetables in it.

Yeah! It tastes like we made it♪

Except not since the Mochizukis did.

Hehe. I actually made this curry with the one your family makes in mind, Saki.

Also, I know that you like your curry bold, Ichika, so I decided to put in some grated apples.

Wait, really?

I didn't know that...
That's really thoughtful of you.

Thanks so much!
I feel energized already!

Oh, stop.

But it's true. This is just what we needed. I feel like we'll be able to come up with a really good song now.

Also, Shiho, we'll have the snacks you brought while we do.

Okay, good luck.
