Kohane
But I was only able to arrive on that because of you, Minori. There's no way I would've thought of doing a haunted house based on a fairytale if you hadn't said what you said...
Shiho
All of the things you've been doing with MORE MORE JUMP! might be turning you into an idea person.
Shiho
My initial thought was that I wouldn't mind doing something for class as long as it didn't get in the way of band practice...
Shiho
However, since you two came up with such a good idea, I'll try doing what I can for it.
Kohane
(Thanks to them, we might actually be able to put on a haunted house that even An and others who aren't good with scary things can enjoy...)

Class President
We'll now begin discussing how we'll be putting everything together for our haunted house. First, let's talk about decorations...
Classmates
Wait, shouldn't we start with how we're gonna put up drapes to darken our classroom?
Classmates
That's also important, but don't the routes and layout take priority? We can just use cardboard or our desks to make all the walls we need, right?
Classmates
Hang on! What about costumes?!
How real do the wolves need to look?

Class President
U-Uhh...
Minori
N-Now that we know what we'll be doing, everyone's super excited about putting a haunted house together...!
Shiho
Yeah, there's a lot to do, so getting everyone and everything organized isn't gonna be easy...
Class President
Um, so... We should start with...

Shiho
(For the choir recital, Honami said that it was really hard to get everyone to compromise and agree on one plan.)
Class President
*Gasp*
Y-Yes, Hinomori?
Y-Yes, Hinomori?
Shiho
Why don't we start by figuring out everything we need to do, and then deciding who's going to be in charge of what task?
Class President
Oh...
Yes, you're right.
Yes, you're right.
Shiho
We shouldn't just bombard her with all of our ideas at once. Let's give our suggestions one person at a time.
Classmates
R-Right...!
We're sorry...
We're sorry...
Classmates
I guess we couldn't help but blurt out every idea that came to mind...
Class President
No, it's okay...
And thank you very much, Hinomori.

Kohane
Yeah, Shiho, you did an amazing job of that! Not many people are able to say what's needed in these sorts of situations.
Shiho
Most people usually say that I'm being too harsh... But I'm glad what I said helped.
Class President
Alright, let's start figuring out everything that we need to do. I ask that you please raise your hand and wait to be called on before speaking!
Class President
Okay, now that we've decided who our task leaders will be, let's call things here for today.

Kohane
Unfortunately, Shiho, you're on the maze team, Minori, you're on costumes, and I'll be promoting our haunted house...

Classmates
Yeah!
Classmate A
Can we start with the designs for the wolves?
Classmate B
Are they gonna be putting on wolf's heads? As for their suits or clothes... What do you think they should wear?
Classmate A
In terms of how our wolves' faces are gonna look, we can go in a lot of different directions.
Classmate B
Yeah, I just did a quick search. I'm seeing a mix of stuff from anime and really realistic ones...
Minori
What if we started by thinking about how our guests are gonna feel when they see them?!
Classmate B
How they're gonna feel?
Minori
Yeah! For example... We could put lots of bows and ribbons on them if we want more kids to stop by, or paint on blood if we want them to look really scary!
Classmate A
Yeah, that makes a lot of sense...!
Classmate B
Hmm... Cute is probably the way to go if we want our haunted house to be enjoyable for all ages, but there are plenty of thrill seekers out there... So, why not both?
Classmate A
Good point.
And it'd be pretty boring if all the wolves looked the same. Can we try designing each of them differently?

Oh, then! Let's make one super scary for the thrill seekers out there!

Shiho
The maze team needs to paint trees onto the plywood that are gonna act as the walls for the haunted house, right?
Classmate C
Yup! We already came up with a blueprint. Hinomori, can you have your group work on the exit? We just need each of you to paint three and then we'll be done!
Shiho
(I can use this brush to paint on each leaf... Hmm... Painting on plywood's actually pretty fun...)

Shiho
(Using just one shade of green is probably the issue... Which means I should add in some shadows.)
Classmate C
Hey, wanna try lining our trees up to see how they look together?

Classmate C
Whoa...!
Yours looks so realistic, Hinomori!

Classmate Ⅾ
Yeah!
I can tell that you worked really hard on it...!

Classmate C
Huh? I don't think so... Oh, I know!
Classmate C
We can put the cute and cartoonish trees at the entrance. As you venture deeper and deeper into the forest, they'll gradually start looking more real. How creepy would that be?
Classmate Ⅾ
Yeah, that's a great idea!
Okay, let's try painting a few more realistic trees.

Hinomori, can you show us how you painted yours?

Kohane
(Minori and Shiho are also doing their best, so I need to do the same as we make flyers for our haunted house.)
Classmate E
Hmm... How should our flyers look?
Have any of you made anything like this before?

Kohane
Oh, I might be able to help. I've recently been putting together flyers for some events.
Classmate E
Really?
Can you tell us how you make them?
Can you tell us how you make them?
Kohane
So, I start by taking photos that more or less represent what a particular event's gonna be like. Then I shop them together on my computer.
Classmate F
Photos?
What kind would be good for a haunted house?

Really old mansions come to mind...
But we're having people walk through a forest, so pictures of a real one might work...

I actually went camping a little while ago, so we might be able to use the photos I took then.
Kohane
They should be on my phone... Oh, here they are! How about the one I took of the forest at night?

Classmate E
Whoa! That looks amazing!
Classmate F
You took this, Kohane?!
It looks totally professional!

Oh, I really like this one!
It feels nice and creepy.

Classmate F
Yeah, me too!
Mind if we use it, Kohane?

Kohane
Okay, let's go with that.
But we may also want to try making a few flyers that use different fonts and photos.

Classmate F
Yeah, I agree!
It might be fun to try a bunch of variations. We're gonna need all the help we can get from you, Kohane♪

Classmate F
Hehe. You've changed so much since the start of the school year, Kohane.
Classmate E
Yeah, totally! You used to be so quiet, but we've been getting to hear so much more about who you really are lately!
