Location: Kuro, Mao, Shu, and Izumi's Room
(In the dorms, the day before the trip)
Tsukasa: Please excuse me! This is Tsukasa Suou from Knights! Is Sena-senpai there?
Kuro: Whoa there. You're a sprightly one, in spite of the hour.
Hey Sena, you've got a visitor.
Izumi: What, next we have Kasa-kun? This isn't a daycare, you know.
Tsukasa: "Next"? ...Oh.
Leo: Hey, it's Suo~! What a coincidence to see you here ☆
Tsukasa: So you were over here, Leo-san. That saves me some trouble.
Leo: Hm? Were you looking for me?
Tsukasa: Yes. In fact—
Leo: Oh, wait a sec! Don't give me the answer! I wanna imagine it first!
Were you chased out of your room by your roommates too? I feel you, bro, sharing your living space is tough sometimes ♪
Tsukasa: Er, no, that's not it. Were you chased out of your room?
Leo: Yup! Natsume told me to scram 'cause he was doing some delicate experiment, so I was passing the time writing music just outside the door instead.
When I finally looked up from my songs, I was here. Crazy, right? Did I get teleported here?
Maybe Natsume used magic on me? He's pretty witchy, that guy.
Izumi: Obviously not. It's a bad habit of yours to be totally blind to your surroundings when you're concentrating.
Kiryu was the one who carried you here.
Kuro: Yeah, just as I was coming home, I spotted you scribbling away, Tsukinaga.
If Hasumi found you sitting out there, you'd get a full course o' lectures. Thought you might as well sit in here instead.
Leo: Oh, so that's what happened! Man, you could play a whole symphony in the time it takes Keito to finish his lectures.
You really saved me there! Thanks, Kuro ♪
Kuro: Sure. But now that the truth's come to light, how about giving Suou here an ear, huh?
Leo: Oh, right. I totally forgot.
Tsukasa: Mrgh... Please do not forget.
That aside—it took much longer than I anticipated, so I did not finish until just a moment ago, but here... have this.
Izumi: ...A handmade guidebook? [1]
Tsukasa: SSF came up during my Biblion meeting the other day, you see. Everyone asked me what our plans were or what there is to see, but...
I'd been so singularly focused on our performance that I did not have any concrete answers for them.
That was when Hajime-kun suggested I make these guidebooks.
He told me that he made them once to compile information when Ra*bits had to travel a long way for a concert, and they've been a hit among his unit ever since.
The guidebooks also played a key role in Ra*bits' interactions with the audience over there, or so I heard.
Izumi: Huh. Well, this is neat and easy to read. Not bad.
But was it necessary to make it into a pamphlet like this? It would've been nicer to have it on my phone, like a PDF or something.
Tsukasa: Yes, I was mulling over that myself. While it's thin and shouldn't take up much space, it is still something that needs to be carried around.
So, just in case, I made a digital version as well. I will share it with everyone via Hallhands shortly.
Leo: Hey Suo~, what're all these blank pages for? There's a lot of them. Did it print wrong?
Tsukasa: That's a free space for taking notes. I included several pages so you may write music on them whenever you like.
I could not bear the thought of you writing on the walls of buildings overseas.
Leo: I see! Thoughtful as ever, Suo~!
Wahaha! Seeing a blank white page sparks the ol' inspiration!
Gotta write it down before the melody escapes... ☆
Tsukasa: Ahh! Please do not write on the guidebook just yet! Use something else, I beg you!
Izumi: I think I have an old script lying around... Ah, here. Write on this, Leo-kun.
Tsukasa: Thank you, Sena-senpai. ...So, I have taken what steps I believe were necessary. Will this be suitable?
Izumi: Dunno... Won't know until we get there. It's possible he might not get any inspiration at all.
We just have to keep an eye on him so he doesn't do anything stupid.
...Huh? Do I hear a phone buzzing? Is someone getting a call?
Tsukasa: Oh, it seems Onee-sama wishes to speak with me. Please excuse me for a moment.
Hello? Good evening, Onee-sama... ♪
Izumi: He sounds so sickeningly happy, I should record it and show it to the newbies.
Kuro: Haha. He sure acts his age when around the little lady, huh? Reminds me of our Kanzaki.
...Hm? Suou's face just clouded over.
Izumi: Wow, he looks totally dejected. What's Anzu saying to him?
Tsukasa: Yes... Yes, I understand. Well then, please excuse me. Good night, Onee-sama.
......
Izumi: Oh, you're back.
So what's up, Kasa-kun? Did your "Onee-sama" give you a scolding?
Tsukasa: No, of course not... As I'm sure you know, Onee-sama was set to journey with us.
However, she has business she absolutely must attend to, so she will not be able to show up until the day we perform.
What a shame. I'd already picked out some places I wanted to show her...
Izumi: What, she's got something she needs to prioritize over Knights? Rather brazen of her, if you ask me.
But I guess there's no way around it. She's got a lot to deal with herself.
Tsukasa: Indeed. That is exactly why I wished for her to be able to relax somewhere far away from ES.
But as you say, Sena-senpai, there is no way around it. We don't need her to hold our hands every step of the way, either.
She let us travel by ourselves because she trusts us...
For the sake of the Onee-sama we so dearly love and respect, let us do our best to avoid causing trouble.
