Maya
This one...? No. Then this feels like it wouldn't match... Hrm~, what should I do...?
Hina
Phew~. Today's recording was so long~!
Chisato
Ohh, Hina-chan. While we were recording, you were so excited, saying you want to do more...
Maya
As I thought, this should be... Ah! Hina-san, Chisato-san. Hello!
Chisato
Yes. Hello to you as well, Maya-chan.
Hina
Ah, Maya-chan's drinking coffee! Mmm~, it smells good~āŖ
Maya
Would the two of you like some? I'll prepare it immediately.
Chisato
Thank you. But I feel somewhat bad asking you to do that.
Maya
Not at all. Please don't worry about it!
Chisato
Really? In that case, I'll gladly have some.
Maya
Thank you for waiting~. Here you are!
Hina
Thanks! ... Mmm~! It's so good! It tastes kind of different from our usual coffee.
Chisato
It has an elegant sweetness and a pleasant aftertaste... Thank you for the delicious coffee, Maya-chan.
Maya
Huhehe. You're welcome.
Chisato
By the way, you seemed to be absorbed in your thoughts just a minute ago...
Hina
That's right! You had a really intense look on your face. Did something happen?
Maya
Well... There's something I'm a little uncertain of.
Hina
Really? What is it, what is it?
Maya
The thing is, I made the decision to join the Outdoor Society at university.
Maya
The coffee they brewed for me during my experience with them was so delicious...!
Maya
So, I tried borrowing a full equipment set with a kettle and coffee mill!
Hina
Hmm~... Ah! Did you also brew our coffees with those tools?
Maya
Yes, that's right!
Chisato
So, brewing it with specialty tools makes for a richer flavor. But... from what you've said, you seem to be having fun, so I can't imagine that would make you worry...
Maya
That's... Please take a look at this.
Chisato
An outdoor equipment catalog...?
Hina
Wooow! There are so many options for just the kettles alone! And this page is full of drippers!
Maya
Yes! That's right!! I'm actually being plagued by how many varieties there are!
Maya
First, let's start with the coffee, which can be enjoyed traditionally and casually. When I searched with that in mind, I found an outrageous variety of just drippers.
Maya
And when you add filters and cups into the mix, there are seemingly infinite choices...!
Maya
Each item has its own characteristics, so while I would like to try them all, I'm sure that would be difficult, so... I was wondering what to do.
Hina
Ahaha! So that's what was up. You're the same as ever, Maya-chan.
Maya
Huh?
Hina
I mean, you had your brow furrowed, and you were all, "I don't know what to do," so I thought you were worried about something more serious than that~.
Chisato
Fufu. Right. But it's a relief to know it wasn't something negative.
Maya
Agh, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to worry you... The way I expressed myself was confusing.
Chisato
Not at all. It just means that you're being that serious about the outdoors.
Chisato
Fufu... This may act as a gateway that leads you to be particular about your brewing methods and not just your equipment.
Maya
That's just like you, Chisato-san. You see through everything...!
Maya
The thing is, I've already had Hazawa-san teach me how to brew coffee.
Hina
For coffee, don't you just need to add hot water?
Maya
Actually, that's not the case~. A single cup of coffee can be brewed in so many different ways! It's so interesting and profound.
Maya
By the way, there's one method that I highly recommend when brewing coffee while camping...
Maya
... Ah!
Chisato
What's the matter, Maya-chan?
Maya
I just thought of something good! Why don't we go on a Pastelļ¼Palettes camping trip sometime?
Hina
Camping?! Nice! Sounds like fun!
Maya
I'll use my recommended method of brewing then!
Chisato
That is wonderful. I would very much like to try it. All of us going camping also sounds like it would be fun.
Hina
Mhm! That had me feeling really boppin' just nowāŖ We definitely have to go camping together!
Maya
Yeah! I'll do my best to make sure that I can brew coffee that's even more delicious.
Hina
Then you'll have to keep on practicing! More coffee, please~!
Chisato
Oh my. In that case, I suppose I'll have some as well.
Maya
You two... Huhehe. Thank you very much!

Maya
Ah, Marina-san! BanG Dreamer-san! Are you shopping?
Marina
Yep. We're on a CiRCLE shopping run. Are you also doing some shopping?
Maya
I am! I came to look at outdoor equipment.
Marina
Is that so? How nice. Are you going camping or something?
Maya
Yes, although it won't be right away. The truth is, I joined a club called the Outdoor Society the other day. So, I thought I'd prepare for those activities today.
Marina
Wow~! The Outdoor Society, huh~? You once said you played an active part on the deserted island, so that's perfect for you!
Maya
Huhehe. Do you think so?
Marina
Yeah! But I thought you would join a theater club, so I'm also a little surprised.
Maya
Right. It might not seem like it, but I wasn't exactly sure what club to join. That's because all of them were so charming!
Maya
I still love theater even now, of course. But as a university student and as an idol, I wanted to try something new.
Maya
As I was talking about that with Sayo-san and Matsubara-san... Kaoru-san gallantly appeared.
Maya
And before I knew it, we had started looking around the clubs... Ultimately, the Outdoor Society resonated with me the most.
Marina
I see~. A gut feeling like that... or rather the feeling of getting hooked on something in your heart is important, huh?
Maya
That's right~! That's exactly how it was for me!
Maya
Strangely enough, a theater club wasn't an option for me. It might be because I felt that I accomplished everything in Haneoka's Theater Club, but...
Maya
Thinking about it now, Kaoru-san not joining a theater club may also have been one of my reasons.
Maya
If Kaoru-san is adding to her experience in a new place that isn't any kind of theater club, then so will I... I think that's part of how I felt.
Marina
I see. There may have been a part of you that was influenced by her.
Maya
Right. But just like her, my love for theater and the stage hasn't changed.
Maya
That's why even if my environment changes and I do something new, my roots are still connected to her... Does it sound like I'm trying too hard to sound cool?
Marina
Not at all! I think you and Kaoru-san have a wonderful relationship.
Maya
Huhehe. Thank you very much!
Maya
I might not be involved with theater in university, but I did end up being involved with Pastelļ¼Palettes' staging team.
Maya
A concert's stage production is different than theater, but it's such an honor for me to get the chance to interact with a world that has so many things in common with it!
Marina
Ooh~! That'll be something to look forward to in the future!
Maya
Huhehe... I'll be sure to leverage my experience in Theater Club in my stage productions!
Maya
And then, in the future, the day might come when I'll use that experience in theater.
Marina
Fufu. Thinking about it that way has me feeling excited now.
Maya
I'm so happy you would say that!
Maya
Well, I don't know what will happen from here on out, but that's exactly why I want to enjoy what's in front of me... and that's the Outdoor Society and staging!
Marina
Yeah! We'll be cheering for you, too. Good luck!
Maya
Thank you very much! I will wholeheartedly do the best I can!
