Kohei:
This is bad...looks like we don't have enough...
Kenta:
...Hayasaka-kun?
Yuto:
Ah, what a coincidence! I just ran into Satozuka-san too!
Kohei:
...Oh, Satozuka and Goryo, huh?
Kenta:
Is something weighing on your mind? You seem troubled.
Kohei:
...Could I ask for your advice? I've actually got a bit of a problem on my hands...
Yuto:
Eh...it's not about your band, is it? Has there been a conflict in opinions amongst musicians …!?
Kenta:
I assume you're not accustomed to living together, after all... Naturally, living under one roof comes with it's difficultiesー
Kohei:
...Sorry. I shouldn't have made it sound so severe. Actually, I suppose it is pretty bad.
Kenta:
What's happened...?
Kohei:
...We're kinda tight on the food budget this month.
Kenta:
...Huh?
Yuto:
...What?
Kohei:
I get why you're reacting like that but this is no laughing matter.
There's one of us that takes advantage of where we live and splurges on sweets, another guy that spends on ingredients for making his specialty sara udon...
A guy that practically chugs down rice like it's water, and a guy who binge eats to cope with the stress of dealing with the others...
Before I realized it, it was already the middle of the month and we had almost nothing left to buy food...
Kenta:
I see, that certainly seems troublesome.
Yuto:
Those guys sure eat a lot...
Kohei:
Hey, by chance... do you know any good part-time jobs? I'm pretty good at manual labor.
Yuto:
With Fes so close, don't you think it's better to stay away from jobs where you could get injured?
Kenta:
I agree. Actually, it might not be a part-time job but I've got some potentially promising news for you.
Kohei:
...Oh?
Kenta:
I was talking about it with Goryo just now. Take a look at this. They were handing them out earlier.
Kohei:
A flyer...? "Kamogawa University Promotion of Culture Contest" ...
Yuto:
It's for thanking students for their cultural contributions but...it'll also be like crowning the winners of Mr and Mrs Campus.
Kohei:
How's this gonna help?
Kenta:
Look at the prize for the "First Year Male Student" category.
Kohei:
Let's see...the prize is a trophy and...a coupon for free food from the cafeteria...and lasts for half a year!?
Kenta:
Putting the prize aside, we also discussed how having a member participate would be a good opportunity to promote the band.
Yuto:
It seems like there'll be a ton of press there, so we'll be able to appeal to people that don't usually come to lives!
Kohei:
...This...this is it!!
