Best to go ahead and buy that book while everyone else is making their way to the theater.
Arisa
Gotta find it first... Hm? I thought it would be on this shelf...
Rimi
Ah, Arisa-chan. So you were here. What book are you looking for?
Arisa
Huh? Oh hey, Rimi. You didn't head to the theater with the others?
Rimi
I remembered that there was a book I wanted to buy, so I decided to stop by.
Arisa
I-is that so...?
Rimi
What kind did you plan to get? I can help you find it, if you'd like.
Arisa
N-no, thanks! You don't have to...
Arisa
How about you? What was it that you wanted to buy?
Rimi
I was hoping they'd have something on musical composition.
Arisa
Composing songs?
Rimi
Yeah. It's an area that I've been meaning to improve in.
Arisa
W-wow, I had no idea... Here, I'll give you a hand.
Rimi
Really? Are you sure? What about yours?
Arisa
I-I'm sure it'll be easy for me to spot... C-come on, your book won't find itself!
Rimi
Arisa-chan! I found it! The section on music is over here!
Arisa
Huh, you're right. It was hidden behind this shelf. Heh, go figure. Surprised we found it at all.
Rimi
Composition... Ah! Got it! This is the one!
Arisa
Good job. That takes care of that.
Rimi
This book has great reviews online. It covers all the basics while also giving easy-to-understand explanations of chord progressions!
Arisa
Oh, that's interesting.
Rimi
Have a look at this illustration! It goes into clear detail about creating musical scores!
Arisa
So it does. Seems pretty easy to understand?
Rimi
I may not have found it if you hadn't have been here. Thanks, Arisa-chan.
Arisa
No problem... Wh-while we're here, maybe I'll buy one for myself.
Rimi
Arisa-chan, you're interested in writing music?
Arisa
I wouldn't put it that way... Wh-when you're in a band, it d-doesn't hurt to have this kind of knowledge! R-right?
Arisa
And wh-when you... er, if you... Well, if you were to get in a bind, I could, you know, try to help you out a bit. Maybe?
Rimi
Arisa-chan...
Arisa
Actually, I've tried looking up more information online, but there are so many websites with so much information on each one, so I had no idea where to even start...
Arisa
Having a book like this around would definitely prove to be useful, I think...
Rimi
Pardon me if I'm mistaken, Arisa-chan, but were you perhaps looking for the same book that I was?
Arisa
A-ah...! N-no! Passing up a good find like this one is a waste. That's all...!
Rimi
Fufu, I see. Even so, seeing you interested in composition, even if it's just a little bit, makes me happy.
Arisa
Hey, Rimi? If I have trouble understanding what's in the book, could you maybe...
Rimi
Of course! Anytime! I'm not sure if I'll be of any help, but feel free to ask away!
Rimi
Nnn~, I'm really looking forward to the day when you and I can discuss writing music!
Arisa
L-let's not get our hopes up too high~...

Arisa
Ah, BanG Dreamer. Hey.
Arisa
I have plans to meet with Kasumi and the others at the cafƩ. Would it be alright if I were to wait in here?
Arisa
Thanks. It shouldn't take too long.
Arisa
Phew~... Nice and cool... I'll probably melt the next time I step foot outside...
Arisa
Would you mind if I put on some sunscreen? They say it's best to reapply it frequently.
Arisa
Having to slap it on over and over is a huge pain, though. Sunscreen can be a real hassle.
Arisa
Hm? You're asking if I hate the heat?
Arisa
I hate it. It's the worst. Every second is misery. I can't go on living without air conditioning...
Arisa
I mean, this summer is particularly brutal, isn't it? What do you think, BanG Dreamer?
Arisa
I asked Kasumi the same thing, and she just said that "summers are always hot." Yeah, as if that wasn't obvious.
Arisa
... BanG Dreamer, you say you agree with Kasumi? Really?
Arisa
I mean, do you know how much sunscreen I've had to use before this summer? Pretty much none. Yet I'm already on my third bottle this year.
Arisa
... I've used so much because I've been going outside more?
Arisa
Hm... You know, you're probably right. I've been hanging out with someone almost every day recently.
Arisa
... And most of those times were with Poppin'Party, so...
Arisa
If I think of it that way, I guess this summer heat hasn't been such a bad thing...
Arisa
..! N-no, it was nothing! Forget it!
Arisa
... Speaking of which, it seems like Kasumi and the others are here. I'll be heading out now.
Arisa
... Guh, just opening the door is like stepping into an inferno... Ugh... I'm gonna evaporate...
