Shizuku

Listen

The interfacing seems to be adhering nicely, so we shouldn't need to worry about the threads fraying.
2

Shizuku

Listen

That concludes my final checks.
Very nice work, everyone!

Mizuki

Listen

Yay, we're done!
4

Mafuyu

Listen

I can't help but feel a sense of accomplishment after seeing how many gifts we made.
5

Haruka

Listen

I feel the same way.
I'm really looking forward to handing these out to everyone tomorrow.
6

Shizuku

Listen

I'm sure they're going to love these, since you all worked so hard on them.

MEIKO

Listen

This is incredible, Airi!
I didn't realize you knew how to make mousse cakes.
8

Rin

Listen

And it's in the shape of a really cute heart!
9

Airi

Listen

Just wait until you taste it.
Also, I went with a low-calorie recipe, so feel free to have as much as you like.
10

Luka

Listen

And you brought spoons with chocolates on top of them, Minori.
11

Minori

Listen

Yup! They're called chocolate spoons, and all you have to do is pour melted chocolate onto the bowls. It's really easy.
12

Len

Listen

And they're all decorated differently.
Did you choose the dragées for these based on our colors?
13

Miku

Listen

I think that also goes for the other toppings. Between the hearts and flowers, it's really easy to tell which spoon belongs to whom♪
14

Minori

Listen

Hehe... I did my best to make sure you guys like how they all look!
15

Haruka

Listen

I see...
Thank you for putting so much thought into these, Minori.
16

Shizuku

Listen

Okay, would it alright if we showed you all our gifts next?
17

KAITO

Listen

Our gifts? Did you make them together?
18

Haruka

Listen

Yes. Shizuku taught me how to make mine, so they probably won't look as good as hers... But I hope you guys like them.
19

Haruka

Listen

So, Minori, I'll start with yours...
This is for you.
20

Minori

Listen

Oh...
21

Minori

Listen

Ohmygosh!
Th-This pouch is for me?!
But it's so beautiful!

22

Miku

Listen

Wow, these flowers are so pretty!
Did you embroider them yourself, Haruka?
23

Haruka

Listen

Yeah, because Minori's smile has a way of making others around her feel better. Like flowers that suddenly start blooming.
24

Haruka

Listen

So, I decided to embroider a whole flower field inspired by her.
25

Minori

Listen

W-Wow...!
26

Luka

Listen

It's like a field of flowers just popped up around Minori.
27

Airi

Listen

Yeah, talk about a flowery smile.
28

Minori

Listen

*Sob*
Thank you so much, Haruka...! I promise to treasure this pouch and what you just said forever and ever!
29

Haruka

Listen

*Nod*
I'm glad to hear that you like it so much.
30

Shizuku

Listen

Next, Airi, I'd like to present you my gift.
31

Airi

Listen

O-Okay...
I'm starting to feel kinda nervous, after all that.
32

Shizuku

Listen

Here you are.
Happy Valentine's Day, Airi♪
33

Airi

Listen

Is this a keychain...?
Oh, it's an embroidered sun.
34

Rin

Listen

Wow, it's so pretty! Look at all the shiny beads and threads!
35

Shizuku

Listen

Hehe. You're always shining so brightly and illuminating us.
36

Shizuku

Listen

So, I thought it was just perfect for you!
37

Airi

Listen

Shizuku...
38

MEIKO

Listen

Hehe. Your eyes are shining brightly too, Airi.
39

Airi

Listen

H-Hey, cut me some slack.
Anyone would feel this way after receiving something like this...!
40

Airi

Listen

Thanks, Shizuku...
I promise to make good use of this.
41

Shizuku

Listen

You're welcome...!
42

Haruka

Listen

Next, Len, would you mind?
43

Len

Listen

No problem. I'll be the one presenting what we got for you and the others, Miku.
44

Rin

Listen

Wait, Len, why you?
45

Len

Listen

Because I helped them come up with embroidery designs for their gifts.
46

Shizuku

Listen

Yes, he provided us with some wonderful ideas after thinking very hard about all of you.
47

Miku

Listen

I had no idea...!
Now I can't wait to see what you made.
48

Rin

Listen

Show us already, Len♪
49

Len

Listen

Then, Rin, I'll start with you.
50

Len

Listen

Here you are.
Happy Valentine's Day, Rin!
51

Rin

Listen

Thanks!
Wow, this towel feels so fluffy and absorbent!
52

Rin

Listen

It's embroidered with... My face, and some yellow flowers?
53

Haruka

Listen

They're canola flowers.
Shizuku did your face, and I did the flowers.
54

Len

Listen

Apparently, these flowers symbolize cheerful energy.
55

Len

Listen

It's supposed to be you making all your fans smile while putting on a fun and happy performance.
56

Rin

Listen

Thanks, Len...!
And you both, Shizuku, Haruka...!
57

Rin

Listen

I'm gonna use this towel to practice and put on shows that send everyone home smiling!
58

MEIKO

Listen

So, what kind of design did you come up for me?
59

Len

Listen

Okay, MEIKO, for you...
60

Haruka

Listen

I also made pouches for you two, Airi, Shizuku. I hope you both like them.
61

Shizuku

Listen

I also made keychains for you both. I'll hand them out now.
62

Minori

Listen

Wow, thanks so much...!
63

Shizuku

Listen

Hehe...
64

Shizuku

Listen

(I'm so glad that everyone's enjoying their gifts.)
65

Shizuku

Listen

(We put so much thought and effort into our gifts, and we get to see them all smile now...)
66

Shizuku

Listen

(I couldn't be happier...)
67

Shizuku

Listen

(This is the power of embroidery...
It has the ability to make these sorts of connections with others.)
68

Shizuku

Listen

(I hope things are going well on Asahina's end...)
