Busy Vice President! |  |
Tsugumi
I'm here!
Hina
Oh, you made it! Come on in, Tsugu-chan!
Tsugumi
Good afternoon, Hina-senpai!
Hina
Sorry about canceling the last meeting on such short notice~.
Tsugumi
No, no. Your Pastel✽Palettes duties obviously take precedent.
Tsugumi
Is today's meeting related to the same topic as before? Uhm, something involving a boppin' idea...?
Hina
Right! So you do remember! Okay, you're going to love this, Tsugu-chan~!
Tsugumi
U-uhhh, maybe we should wait for the others... I'm the only one here...
Hina
Hm~. Nope, can't hold it in anymore, so you get a special sneak peek!
Tsugumi
Hahaha... You sound ready to burst...
Tsugumi
Okay, what sort of idea have you come up with?
Hina
Hehehe, that would be a new school function!
Hina
Now that I'm the student-council president, I'd like for us to start holding as many fun events as we can!
Tsugumi
Fun events... Uhhh, what did you have in mind?
Hina
For example~... a monthly stargazing party! Designating a special day for eating sushi sounds great, too!
Hina
Well? Totally boppin', aren't they♪
Tsugumi
N-neither of those would be related to the student council~...
Tsugumi
Stargazing is an activity for the Astronomy Club, and the school would never approve a sushi day.
Hina
Awww~! But they'd be so much fun~! I can't use my sway as president somehow?
Tsugumi
I very much doubt it...
Tsugumi
(Hina-senpai doesn't seem to understand what the council does, exactly...)
Tsugumi
(Since I've been on the council for a longer time, it's up to me to help explain it to her...!)
Tsugumi
Hina-senpai, the job of the student council is to improve the quality of the school.
Tsugumi
Gathering the opinions of our peers on various topics and areas that could use improvement...
Tsugumi
We act as the representatives of the student body and help realize their desires. That is what a student council does.
Hina
Wow~. The opinions of our peers...
Tsugumi
While I personally believe your ideas would be fun, they may not be deemed necessary by the other students...
Tsugumi
Therefore, it may be better to try and imagine what it is our fellow students are hoping for.
Hina
Okay, makes sense. I think I get what you mean~.
Hina
... Ah, in that case, how about this?
Hina
We've got a school canteen, right? I feel like the item selection there has been pretty lacking, so I say we spice it up with more variety!
Tsugumi
Improving the products in the canteen... That sounds like a wonderful idea!
Tsugumi
We receive regular feedback from the students regarding the canteen's selection.
Tsugumi
I believe the student council can do something about that!
Hina
Awesome! I think I'm starting to get the hang of this student-council stuff!
Tsugumi
May I ask you what kind of items you believe are needed most?
Hina
Good question~... Maybe warm food, for starters?
Hina
Sure, you can already get bread or a bento, but I think the club-goers would really dig stuff like fried chicken or meat buns!
Tsugumi
Yes, I agree that warm food items could prove to be popular...
Hina
And in winter, they can sell oden! A nice warm meal to help beat the cold weather!
Tsugumi
O-oden...? I suppose... that might be possible...
Hina
Adding magazines and manga would also be cool!
Tsugumi
Huh? I'm not certain the canteen needs such items...
Hina
Awww, how come? Wouldn't it be nice to walk in during break time and be able to pick up something to read?
Hina
Ah, and we should do something about the operating hours!
Tsugumi
Now that you mention it, it does close a tad early.
Hina
I know! By the time clubs let out, anyone who's hungry gets snubbed~.
Hina
So why don't we try keeping it open twenty-four hours a day?
Tsugumi
I-isn't that just a convenience store?
Hina
Yep. I guess you could say I want one for our school.
Tsugumi
Huh?!
Hina
I can see it now... "Hina-chan Mart"! A one-stop shop for all your boppin' needs~♪
Tsugumi
We cannot put a convenience store inside the school~!
Transcript
Tsugumi
Phew, t-time for a break...
Tsugumi
Trying to play straight through our new song is just as difficult as I expected...
Tsugumi
I can still move my fingers though. Alright, I'll buy a drink, then get right back to it.
Tsugumi
Ah, BanG Dreamer-san. Hello.
Tsugumi
Huh? Our rehearsal session is longer than usual?
Tsugumi
Now that you mention it, we are typically finished by this time.
Tsugumi
The reason we came today is to put together our new song.
Tsugumi
We decided to keep at it until the song has taken shape... but it looks like it'll take a little more time.
Tsugumi
... Hahaha, don't worry. We're pacing ourselves.
Tsugumi
We'll make sure not to have it interfere with school tomorrow. Wouldn't want anything to happen, now that we're in the same class.
Tsugumi
Huh? The others seemed really happy when they mentioned it...?
Tsugumi
We all are! Everyone was nervous when the roster announcement was made.
Tsugumi
Ever since our second year of middle school, Ran-chan had been separated from the rest of us... And each year, we thought that maybe we'd finally get back together.
Tsugumi
It always disappointed us when we found out that we'd still be split up...
Tsugumi
Ran-chan definitely took it much harder than we did.
Tsugumi
She has never admitted it, but there's not a doubt in my mind...
Tsugumi
That's why we're so thrilled to be in the same class again.
Tsugumi
Despite always being together, we were constantly reminded of being apart at school.
Tsugumi
Take school events, for example. Each class usually decides as a group what they'll be doing, right?
Tsugumi
Since we were separated, it was hard for us to make memories that we could share.
Tsugumi
I kept thinking... about how much more fun it could've been if Ran-chan had been there.
Tsugumi
Not only me... but I think Moca-chan, Tomoe-chan, and Himari-chan did too.
Tsugumi
Everyone probably felt the same way.
Tsugumi
That's why the thought of spending this year's school events together has me so excited.
Tsugumi
Fufu, maybe it's a little premature, seeing as how the school year just started...
Tsugumi
But I can't help imagining how the events are going to go...
Tsugumi
Ah, I apologize for babbling on and on like that. You must have so much to do.
Tsugumi
I forgot about the drink I came out here to buy. I'd better hurry and get back to the others...
Tsugumi
Good luck with your duties today! We'll all try to work just as hard!
