My poster's gonna make pulling weeds look like so much fun that everyone's going to come join us!

Emu
Then, I'll put the date somewhere around there, and have a picture of people pulling weeds in the middle!

Hehe. Good morning.
I just happened to hear your voice while working on some things for the cleanup committee.

Emu
Oh, I know!
I bet this poster would become even more wonderhoy if you drew something, Honami!

Emu
I really love the way you draw because they're such a great expression of your feelings! They always look sparkly and fluffy and fuzzy and stuff!
Emu
And I always love looking at them because they're so explosively eye-opening, like kapow!

Honami
I thought that more flowers will be able to bloom once all the weeds have been pulled.
Emu
Oh, now I see!
These little stick thingies must be the stamens, and the white flappy parts are the petals!

Honami
Thank you for having me over again today. And for allowing me to join you for dinner.
Kanade
My grandmother sent over a big box of vegetables, but they won't stay fresh for long. So, I'm glad you're here to help us get through them.
Honami
Hehe. I'm also glad.
But please feel free to have as much as you like, you two. These braised eggplants turned out even better than they did last time.

It has been very hot this summer.
If you like, I can make something that's easier on the stomach.

I've been asked to run a volunteer weeding program as part of my class representative duties, but we've been having trouble recruiting people...

Hmm... I just checked the sign-up sheet, but it seems there haven't been any new volunteers.

Would it be alright if I helped a little with running this event? I feel like I want to lend you two a hand after seeing you putting in so much effort.

*Nod*
As far as volunteer work goes, it appears that this seems the most taxing in everyone's minds.

Emu
Hmm... But I still think working together to make everything look pretty is gonna be a lot of fun.
Honami
Yes. For example, if all participants are promised a delicious meal, then they'll know that their hard work will be rewarded in the end.
Honami
Oh, but you'll have budget constraints to think about, so I'm sure we can't do anything lavish like that.
Mafuyu
We should be upfront about how tough this is going to be, but also show that it can be very fun and rewarding. That should help convince people.
Emu
(But how do we make this fun?
What would convince people to come pull weeds with us...?)
