Yuno

Nothing's coming... Absolutely nothing...

Yuno

A-At least... if I could just write this much...

Yuno

Urgh...

Arale

Huh, Yuno-san-chan isn't coming to practice!?

We still have time before the deadline, but it's dangerous if we keep dragging our feet.

Nonoka

Deadline~?

Miyako

It's like... the final cutoff where if we miss it, the rest of the schedule won't make it in time.

Nonoka

Deadline...

Ritsu

In other words, you're having her focus on composing for now.

Exactly! You catch on quick, Minetsuki-san!

Ritsu

Thank you.

Arale

I see... It's lonely without her, but I guess it can't be helped. While Yuno-san-chan is doing her best, we should also...!

Arale

Hmm?

An email? It's from Sengoku-san. There's an attachment too.

Arale

Nationwide Tour New Song.mp3... This is it! Isn't this the new song!?

Seems like it. Wanna listen?

Arale・Ritsu・Nonoka・Miyako

Yes!!!!

Alright then... click♪

Nonoka

...Huh?

Arale

It's only about 20 seconds long...?

Miyako

Is the file corrupted, maybe...?

That's strange, it doesn't seem like it.

Ritsu

Oh... there's a text file attached too. Let's see...

Yuno

"Thank you for your continued support. This is Yuno Sengoku of Mugendai MewType."

Yuno

"Regarding the new song you requested, I sincerely apologize for the delay in progress. I have completed part of the melody, so I am sending it ahead of time."

Ritsu

...That's what it says.

Arale

It sounds like a business email...

You can really feel her professional pride and her embarrassment~

Miyako

Ugh, I know that feeling all too well...!

Well, let's just practice the songs we already have for today.

Arale・Ritsu・Nonoka・Miyako

Okaaay.

Nonoka

Does Yuno-chan need some first aid~?

Ritsu

I'm worried about her.

Nonoka

Yeah~

Miyako

...I think she should still be fine, speaking from experience.

Arale

Really?

Miyako

Yes... I'd say she's probably at the stage where she's got a huge pile of energy drinks on her desk and is just gritting her teeth and pushing through.

Arale

Is that really what you'd call "fine"...?

Ritsu

Who knows...

Miyako

Doing everything you can to meet a deadline... That's what it means to make a living off your own skills.

Nonoka

Ooh~

Arale

S-So cool...!

Miyako

Sengoku-san... I wish you the best of luck...!

Nonoka

Wow~!

Ritsu

Looks like time's up. Good work today, everyone.

Miyako

Good work today.

Miyako

Arale-san...?

Arale

Oh, sorry! I just really wanted to hear it one more time...!

Ritsu

The new tour song?

Arale

Yeah. Because it sounded so cool...!

Ritsu

...It really is cool.

Arale

Right? Right? It's this cool and it's only 20 seconds! I'm sooooo looking forward to hearing the full version!

Ritsu

Yeah.

Nonoka

Uh-huh~

Miyako

I hope it gets finished by the deadline...

Arale

...Alright!!

Nonoka

Hm?

Arale

I'm going to do everything I can for Yuno-san-chan too!!

Ritsu・Miyako・Nonoka
