It's good we didn't have to wait at all to get a table. And this place looks so nice!

Mizuki
Alright, Honami, now it's just the two of us. Let's take this opportunity to get to know each other a little better.
Honami
When we were walking around the fair, Akiyama, it was clear how much you like fashion and cute accessories.
Honami
I'm also interested in fashion...
I even make scrunchies and other accessories, so it'd be nice if we could talk more about that.

Mizuki
Really?! I'd love that too!
It's so hard to find people to talk to about sewing and stuff!

Mizuki
My name!
This has been on my mind since this morning, but it's totally okay to just call me Mizuki! We're the same age, right? Also, I've already been calling you by your first name.

Mizuki
Hmm... You still sound a bit tense...
But it's a start and a step in the right direction!
But it's a start and a step in the right direction!
Mizuki
Yeah! I've been wanting to meet you for a little while now after hearing so much about you from Kanade, Mafuyu and Ena!
Mizuki
You help clean and cook for Kanade at her house, right? But she doesn't really care about anything other than composing music. She hardly ever cleans her room and even skips meals whenever she starts focusing on a song...
Mizuki
But she's able to work on her music because you're there for her, Honami. So, I've been wondering what you're like all this time.
Honami
I see... But I've also noticed that Ms. Yoisaki's been changing recently. Compared to before, she eats more regularly, and even goes out more often.
Honami
She asked me to please do my best to look after her granddaughter even though she can be a handful at times.
Honami
When I first met her, she looked like she was in so much pain... She was always saying how she had to keep composing and create a song that could save people...

Honami
But after spending so much time with her, it's become clear to me that she's a wonderful person...
Honami
She always gives her all for the sake of others...
I decided that I want to do what I can for her.

Mizuki
I'm really glad you told me that...
I now know for a fact that you genuinely care about Kanade's well-being.

Mizuki
Don't say that! You invited Kanade out today because you wanted her to take a break, right?
Honami
Only vaguely...
I was told that your friend is in trouble and Kanade is trying to compose a song for her sake.

Mizuki
Yeah, so... She's in a bit of a tough spot and is really being pushed to her limit right now...
Mizuki
Plus, Kanade promised to save her.
Out of all of us, she's definitely the most worried about all this.

Honami
(Which explains why I thought she was acting the way she did when I first met her...)
Mizuki
At the very least, she's not gonna collapse on us since she's finally eating better♪

Mizuki
Yeah! I was asking about what you're like at home and what you eat on a regular basis!
Kanade
Oh, um... I-I'm sorry...
I know I haven't been eating much recently, but I promise to from now on.

Honami
(I'm not in her group like Mizuki and the others, so I can't exactly help them with what they do...)
Honami
(But she agreed to join me for this fair today, so I'd like to help her enjoy it as much as possible.)

Thank you so wonderhoy for coming!
Emu
But I wanna learn as much as I can about how events like these are run! So, I've been exploring to see what everything's like!
Mizuki
Yeah! There's still lots we haven't seen, and we'd love to hear your recommendations!
Emu
So, have you three already seen the dress exhibit? They have all these sparkly dresses that are so fun to see!
Mizuki
Yeah, we saw! They were so pretty that I totally didn't know what to do with myself!
Honami
We also looked at the accessories, attended a workshop... Oh, and saw the fashion show.
Emu
So, they booked the chapel next door for this event, and you can try on all the dresses you want over there!
