Kenta: That's all we time for today. We'll take our leave now.

Miyuki: Phew! Nice work today guys!

Reon: The new song is finally starting to come together.

Ryo: It’s turning out pretty cool. The drums in particular stand out a lot.

Miyuki: Thanks, Ryo-chin! All those ideas I had really paid off.

Kenta: It’s because of your ideas that it took so long to make it come together.

Miyuki: Shut up! Hey, Nayuta, could we perform this song at our next live?

Nayuta: It’s not ready.

There’s still a detachment between the image of the song and your drumming. The next live is too early for us to perform it.

Miyuki: Really? But I’ll try really hard to perfect it…

Nayuta: If you can’t do anymore today, then don’t have so much faith in your words.

Miyuki: Okay, okay, roger that.

Ryo: Miyuki-kun, you seem to be in high spirits. Is it because of that event you're performing in?

Miyuki: Yep! Like I said, my favourite drummer is hosting it!

Of course I’m gonna be all fired up! We’ll have that new song finished before then too!

Kenta: It’s good that you’re so motivated, but you should focus on the live first.

While it may be small in the grand scheme of things, everything during the time leading up to LRFes is crucial. There must be a level of quality between all the lives we put on.

Miyuki: I already know all that!

(Phone ringing)

Miyuki: Sorry, I’m getting a call. It’s hard being so popular. I’ll be outside for a bit.

Ryo: He’s gone.

Reon: That Miyuki-san…does he really understand? Don’t you think he seems way more focused on that event of his?

Kenta: …I see what you mean.

⋆　⋆　⋆

Miyuki: Ah, hello, this is Sakaigawa. Yeah, I seriously can’t wait for the eventー

……Huh?

Location: Live House

Reon: What the hell does Miyuki-san mean he’s gonna be late for rehearsal!? That’s ridiculous!

Ryo: At least he messaged us, right? That’s good.

Reon: No it’s not!

Kenta: We were able to run through it with a substitute drummer but…I’d like to play it with Miyuki at least once.

We’ll wait as long as we can.

Nayuta: ...

Reon: Just because this is a smaller live, doesn’t mean he can start being lazy!?

Ryo: I don’t think that’s the case with Miyuki-kun.

Reon: Who knows…he was up to something last night…

Ryo: …Ah, Miyuki-kun is here.

Miyuki: Sorry sorry! Phew, I made it in timeー!

Reon: No you didn’t! Rehearsal is already over!

Miyuki: Sorry, I’ve had my hands full lately.

Reon: Get yourself together…

Kenta: We can discuss this later. Get ready immediately. We don’t have much time to play.

Miyuki: That won't be a problem! My performance will be flawless on the day of the live!

Location: The Park

Kenta: …So to summarise it, you’ve been all over the place trying to get the right to perform in the event after being withdrawn due to uncontrollable reasons?

Miyuki: Well, that’s the gist of it…

Kenta: I see, in that case, I can understand your behaviour the last few days.

Miyuki: …You really piss me off. The hell is with that look on your face? Acting like you know anything.

Kenta: It’s alright if you’re upset with me. As long as the band doesn’t fall apart, I’ll put up with it.

No matter what your feelings may be, you can’t deny that the benefits of performing at the event would be huge.

Miyuki: Don’t be so quick to take control like that…

Kenta: What? Aren't you going to perform?

Miyuki: …I am.

Kenta: So are you going to speak to them about it?

Miyuki: I have an appointment to speak with them formally. I’ll make sure they squeeze me in.

Kenta: I see. In that case, I’ll continue entrusting this matter to you. Let me know if you run into any trouble.

Miyuki: As if I'd ask you for help.

Kenta: You should give Nayuta and Reon a proper explanation when you return home too.

Miyuki: …You go ahead. I’m going to stay here a little longer. Shoo shoo.

Kenta: I see. In that case, I’ll tell them myself.

Miyuki: Ahh, talking to that guy seriously annoys me.

Ryo: Does it? The two of you are quite similar though. Kinda like you’re on the same wavelength…

Miyuki: Me? Similar to him!?

Ryo: Yeah, you both love Nayuta’s music too. Ah, but that would include me as well then.

Miyuki: I don’t know if that’s enough to call us similar…

By the way, Kenta’s timing earlier was unbelievable…did you call him here, Ryo-chin?

Ryo: Yep, I called him through telepathy a little while ago.

Miyuki: Huh?

Ryo: Fufu…and then he came.

Miyuki: A-Ah…I see, you’re really amazing, Ryo-chin.

Miyuki: What do you think, Nayuta? How was that!?

Nayuta: Not bad.

Miyuki: …Then?

Nayuta: We’ll perform the new song at the next event.

Miyuki: Alright!!

Ryo: Isn’t that nice, Miyuki-kun? Now you’ll be able to show your favourite drummer how cool you are.

Miyuki: Shh! Don’t say that in front of everyone, Ryo-chin!

Reon: …Don’t be late to the rehearsal for the event.

Miyuki: You won’t catch me doing that anymore! I won’t mess up the setlist either!

Kenta: I’m trusting you. There are limits to what I can follow on stage.

Miyuki: Shut the hell up! I didn’t ask you to trust me!

(This time…I showed everyone an uncool side of me…)

(But at this next live…I’ll completely recover from it!)

(I’ll show them…the coolest me they’ve ever seen!)

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5

Location: The Park

Ryo: Mm…soft drinks on Earth taste so good.

Miyuki: It's becoming a bit of a custom for me to buy you drinks...well, whatever.

Ryo: Hey, Miyuki-kun, did something happen?

Miyuki: …Why’re you asking that?

Ryo: I've been feeling a little strange.

I think Earthlings call it…”worried”.

Miyuki: Hm~, I was going to tell you all once the issue had settled.

So…y'know that event that my favourite drummer was hosting? The one I was supposed to perform at?

Ryo: Yeah. You were really looking forward to it.

Miyuki: Well…the other day they called me and asked me to drop out because of a mistake in the bookings.

Ryo: Really?

Miyuki: So the past few days, I’ve been desperately promoting myself, trying to earn a spot.

Yesterday I invited myself to a drinking party and today I barged into the agency… but I know it doesn’t excuse being late to rehearsal.

Ryo: I see. You’ve been trying really hard.

Miyuki: I’ve been holding it in ever since…hey, aren’t I being a little quick to tell you this?

Ryo: You think so?

Miyuki: Ryo-chin, when I’m with you…it feels silly to try and act cool or make myself look good.

Ryo: You’re already cool just the way you are…

Miyuki: Maybe there’s no point in trying to act cool with an alien?

Ryo: Why don’t you tell the others just like you told me?

Miyuki: …I can’t

Ryo: You can’t?

Miyuki: I can’t.

Miyuki-kun, who was so excited to perform on the same stage as his favourite drummerー

Miyuki-kun, who was frantically running around when it fell throughー

I can’t tell the others if I’m not even guaranteed to performー

Ryo: Why? It’d be fine to tell them.

Miyuki: No it wouldn’t! I guess aliens just can’t understand the male mind…．

It’s not the right time to talk about it anyway. Not after Nayuta said I should quit if I don’t have the determination

It’s not that I’m undetermined…what am I gonna do?

Ryo: Hm~, why don’t you try discussing it with Kenken?

Miyuki: Kenta? But he’s the one I’ve got a problem with. I even took my frustrations out on him earlier.

Ryo: But he’s right there.

Miyuki: Right there~?

……Huh?

Kenta: What's wrong? Don't you have something to discuss with me?

Miyuki: …Huhhh!? How long have you been there!?

Kenta: A little while.

Miyuki: Were you listening to us!?

Kenta: From around the time you started talking about standing on the same stage as your favourite drummer.

Miyuki: This is the worst! Nothing could get lamer than this!

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5

Location: Live House

Reon: That’s the kind of thing I cannot let slide!

Kenta: Calm down, Reon. Miyuki…do you have an explanation for this?

Miyuki: …What?

Kenta: I know you’ve always liked to mess around, but I don’t think you'd get yourself drunk the day before a live without a reason.

So, do you have an explanation?

Miyuki: …No? I haven’t got a reason. Kenta, the hell do you think you even know about me?

Kenta: Nothing. All I’m saying is that if you have a reason, you should at least explain yourself.

Miyuki: Hm, I see…somehow that makes me a little mad.

Kenta: …It’s my job as our leader.

Miyuki: Yeah, yeah, your “job as our leader” right?

You think you’ve got everyone figured out…

…That really pisses me off about you.

(Miyuki leaves)

Kenta: …

Ryo: Miyuki-kun!? Huh, he left?

Reon: Just leave him alone.

Ryo: Hm~...hey, Miyuki-kun, wait upー

(Ryo follows after him)

Reon: Kenta-san…do you know something?

Kenta: It’s like I said. When it comes to him…I don’t know anything.

But I don’t think he’d be late to rehearsal without a reason.

Reon: I think so too…

Nayuta: Oi, have you finished with your pointless argument? I’m leaving.

Reon: You…

Kenta: We’re done. The two of you should head home. I still have a meeting with the live house staff to attend.

⋆　⋆　⋆

Miyuki: (Damn…that didn’t go well…)

(I'm troubling them and lashing out...I'm so lame.)

Ryo: Oii…Miyuki-kunn.

Miyuki: …Ryo-chin.

Ryo: You stormed out so suddenly so I followed after you.

Miyuki: …Did Kenta tell you to come cheer me up?

Ryo: No, he didn’t? But…I’m not actually sure why I came after you?

Miyuki: Like I’d know either…

Ryo: Hm~...hey, Miyuki-kun, I need to ask you something first.

Miyuki: What?

Ryo: I’m thirsty.

Miyuki: …Huh?

Ryo: While I was running after you, my throat got all dry.

Miyuki: …Fufu…what’s with you?

Ryo: Why’re you laughing?

Miyuki: Haha…talking with you makes me feel like I’m going insane…

…Is a soft drink alright?

Ryo: Yep!

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5

Location: Live House

Miyuki: Alright, time for the next song! Three, fourー!

(Miyuki begins to play)

Nayuta: …!

Ryo: (Oh???)

Reon: (Hey, this songー!)

Miyuki: (…Hm? Why aren’t the others joining in?)

Kenta: Miyuki…that’s the wrong song…!

Miyuki: (...Shit! I messed up the setlist! But if I stop now, it’ll ruin the enthusiasm in the venue…)

Kenta: …Follow along with him!

Ryo: (Somehow…the energy in here was saved?)

Reon: (But…how could he make such a rookie mistake…!?)

⋆　⋆　⋆

Miyuki: …Sorry, I really screwed up.

Kenta: If you had made time for rehearsal, you wouldn’t have messed up the order of the setlist.

Ryo: The PA and lighting crew were all in a panic.

Miyuki: Ahaha…I’ll go apologise to them later.

Reon: Oi…what’re you going to do about this?

Miyuki: I already said I’m sorry!

Reon: To mess up something like the setlist…

Miyuki: Hey Kenta, thanks for joining in with me so quickly earlier. You’re a real lifesaver!

Kenta: I’ll follow you on stage, but…not once we step foot off of it.

Miyuki: Ah~...well, fair enough…

Nayuta: Sakaigawa.

Miyuki: …Here it comes.

Nayuta: If you don’t have the determination then give up immediately. I have no use for an amateur. Anyone that doesn’t intend to aim for the top will only get in the way.

Miyuki: Hahaha…how relentless.

Reon: …I agree with Nayuta.

Miyuki: Lighten up, you two! I really regret my mistake, y’know?

Reon: Is this the attitude of a regretful man!?

Nayuta: I don’t care what attitude you have, I don’t even care if you’re sorry.

The only thing I need to see are results.

Reon: …Hey, hang on, Nayuta! That’s not right!? You should be telling him to think about his actions and to not be late to practice. Tell him to show up at rehearsal!

Nayuta: Rehearsal is just that: a rehearsal. As long as your performance is perfect on the day of the live, the rest does not concern me.

Miyuki: Haha…of course you'd say that.

Reon: …Agh, dammit! I take back what I said! There’s no way I agree with Nayuta!

Even if the actual performance was a success, I still can’t accept it. We’re the ones that have to deal with all the trouble!

Kenta: Oi, Reon. Calm down.

Reon: I can’t! There’s no way I can just let this go! Yesterday…I saw you!

Ryo: You saw him…? What do you mean?

Reon: Miyuki-san…what were you doing last night?

Miyuki: What’re you talking about…?

Reon: You went out drinking, didn’t you? I saw you. I didn’t want to believe it but…

Miyuki: …

Reon: Doing that the day before the live…what hell is up with you? Lying to us, causing us trouble…
