Izumi: Hmph... So that's why he flew back to Japan earlier.
I get why it happened, but why are you roping me into it?
Tsukasa: You've known Leo-san for a long time. You wouldn't want him to remain out of sorts either, would you, Sena-senpai?
Izumi: Toootally annoying. How am I supposed to refuse to help you now?
If we want to work while vacationing, I guess there's always working at a resort...
Tsukasa: Working at a resort?
Izumi: You know, the kind of place people like to stay at in tourist locations. They're always looking to hire part-timers by framing it as a job where you can sightsee while earning money in a short amount of time.
Tsukasa: I see. I shall take that into consideration.
Izumi: No, no, forget about it. They mostly make you do physical labor, anyway. Plus I hear it's toootally busy during the high season.
You'll get yourself in a tight spot if you take it lightly.
Tsukasa: I-I see. Then, why did you mention it?
Izumi: It was just an example. You're the one who said you want to find a job that lets you work and play at the same time.
What else... Maybe an outdoor festival?
But those are usually for rock music, so we'd be out of place. Umm...
Let's just get going for now. Discussing this while neither of us knows anything is just a waste of time.
Tsukasa: You're right. Let us return to the agency... Hm?
O-Onii-sama!
Izumi: Sorry? What's that all of a sudden? I'm Yuu-kun's exclusive Onii-chan, got it?
Tsukasa: Oh, no, not you, Sena-senpai...
Izumi: Hold on, who's there? Don't think you can just casually pat my shoulder like—

Whoa, Tenshouin?!
Eichi: Hello there ♪
Izumi: "Hello there ♪" my ass. You scared the crap out of me... What are you doing, standing behind people without saying a word?
Eichi: Heh, we have had so few opportunities to see each other since we both graduated, I was unfortunately swayed by the whims of mischief. So you've returned from overseas?
Izumi: Yeah, got back not too long ago. ...Oh, right.
Hey, Tenshouin, do you have any work lying around for us?
Tsukasa: Sena-senpai!
Izumi: Come on, it's worth a shot. We gotta use what we have, even if it's Tenshouin.
Tsukasa: But I would not think to trouble Tenshouin Onii-sama with our—
Izumi: Then don't. I'll do the talking.
Anyway, sounds like Leo-kun's stuck in a rut, and we can't just leave him alone until he fixes himself.
So we're looking for some kind of mythical job that lets us go on vacation while earning profits.
I assume you don't want to hand over the good jobs to another agency, but if you do have anything, let us know.
Eichi: Hm... A vacation, you say...
Then how about joining SSF?
Izumi: SSF?
Eichi: One moment. I'll send the details to you on Hallhands.
...Has it arrived? The full name of the event is "Sunnyside Festival". It's a large-scale music festival held in the southern islands.
It's gotten quite a name for itself overseas. Artists of all places and genres come together to dance until dawn for three days and nights.
Izumi: Hm, sounds like a sweet deal. ...You're plotting something, aren't you?
Tsukasa: Don't be rude, Sena-senpai.
Izumi: Zip it, Kasa-kun. If it's really that famous, then fine or some other StarPro group would be on it.
Why's he giving it to us, huh? There's gotta be a catch.
Eichi: Heh, no need to be so cautious. It was not I who was approached with the SSF request, but ES as a whole.
The client wants us to send some idols over there to represent a specific part of Japan's music culture. It was even thoroughly discussed at Summit, but...
For a single hour of performance, the participating idols would have to set aside an entire week, including transportation time. And during that time, they cannot do any work within Japan.
To add on to this, the festival is little-known in Japan, nor does it cross over with our target audience. There are very few benefits to agreeing to this.
We wouldn't be able to send newbie idols either, as they'll be representing Japanese idols overseas.
...Thus, none of the agencies have been too keen to pick it up. I was, in fact, planning to send a message formally rejecting the request this very night.
But maybe Knights could participate? While I'm sure it would be difficult to take an entire week of time from first-rate idols like you...
It's quite uncommon to see work like this come by. Perhaps you could give it some thought?
Tsukasa: (It fulfills our conditions perfectly, but unfortunately, we have work scheduled during this time period...)
(Rescheduling it all would require very careful discussions with our clients...)
......
...Might we ask for some time to think it over?
Eichi: Certainly, though I won't be able to wait forever.
Tsukasa: One night shall be plenty. I will be sure to contact you tomorrow.
Eichi: Tomorrow, then. I'll be waiting for your message.
Izumi: ..."One night shall be plenty".
Acting all cool just because you're in front of Tenshouin... We only have half a day left, you know.
Tsukasa: I am aware of that. Let us summon the other members at once.
