Emu

That chocolate fondue was so yummy!

2
Character icon
Airi

Fish sausage and chocolate go together surprisingly well. It felt like I was gonna get hooked.

3
Character icon
Saki

Yeah! It won our contest, “Curveball Competition: Which is the tastiest?”! Sweet potato had more points in the flavor category, but after adding in points for the surprise factor, the sausage won out...

4
Character icon
Emu

Yup yup, it sure was a heated battle☆

5
Character icon
Saki

It was also really fun having Airi teach us to decorate with the chocolate pen and stuff♪

6
Character icon
Airi

Hehe, that reminded me of the time we made chocolate Valentine's desserts together.

7
Character icon
Saki

Oh, me too!

It made me happy to think the Secret Valentine's Day Alliance was back!

8
Character icon
Saki

Airi, Emu, thank you both so much for having this chocolate fondue party with me!

9
Character icon
Airi

There's no need for that. When it comes to chocolate, this is the group to get together, right? I was happy to be making treats with you two again!

10
Character icon
Emu

Me too, me too!

Let's do it again!

11
Character icon
Saki

Hehe... Yeah!

12
Character icon
Saki

Wait, huuuh?!

Our party went on for this long?!

13
Character icon
Emu

Huh? Do you have something going on after this, Saki?

14
Character icon
Saki

Yeah. I promised to hang out with Ichi and the others...

15
Character icon
Airi

Oh? Then, we'd better hurry and get this all put away! As for the leftovers, let's split them up and each take some.

16
Character icon
Emu

Okay!

School SEKAI
17
Character icon
Saki

Sorry I'm late, everyone!

18
Character icon
Ichika

Oh, Saki... There you are.

19
Character icon
Honami

Are you okay? Did something happen?

20
Character icon
Shiho

Oh, I'm sure she was just caught up picking out her pajamas or something.

21
Character icon
Saki

I was not!

Actually, I was having a chocolate fondue party with Airi and Emu!

22
Character icon
Saki

When I told them about my list, they said they wanted to help me out. We made some great memories♪

23
Character icon
Saki

Here, I brought leftovers for you guys!

24
Character icon
Rin

Whoa, they look so good!

25
Character icon
Len

Thanks, Saki.

26
Character icon
Luka

By the way, how much of that list have you gotten through?

27
Character icon
Saki

I've completed most of the items thanks to everyone helping out! If I don't include the photo album... This one we're about to do is the last one!

28
Character icon
Rin

Wait, really?!

Then we'll have to go all out☆

29
Character icon
Saki

Yeah! Now then, without further ado...

30
Character icon
Saki

The “All-Night Chat Sleepover☆in☆SEKAI” starts now!

31
Character icon
MEIKO & Rin

Yay!

32
Character icon
KAITO

But... What do you do at a sleepover?

33
Character icon
Saki

You play games, chat and all that stuff until you start to feel sleepy! And so...

34
Character icon
Saki

Ta-da!

I prepared this!

35
Character icon
Len

A dice and...a notepad?

36
Character icon
Saki

Yeah! There are conversation topics written in the notepad, so we roll the dice and talk about the topic that comes up.

37
Character icon
Saki

MMJ did this on stream before, and I've been wanting to try it!

38
Character icon
Rin

Oooh, sounds fun!

39
Character icon
Ichika

But these conversation topics... What sorts are there?

40
Character icon
Saki

Let's see... “A story that's sure to get laughs”, “a time you felt so embarrassed you wanted to disappear”, “a secret you can only reveal now that enough time has passed”...

41
Character icon
Shiho

Are you being serious right now...?

42
Character icon
MEIKO

Hahaha!

Still, I'm sure it'll be fun getting to see an unexpected side to everyone.

43
Character icon
Saki

Okay, today's top batter is...

44
Character icon
Saki

Hona!

45
Character icon
Honami

Huh?! Me?

46
Character icon
Ichika

You can do it, Honami!

47
Character icon
Miku

With this sort of thing, going first will make it less stressful.

48
Character icon
Honami

W-Will it really...?

49
Character icon
Honami

But... If I don't do it, we can't start...!

Please land on something easy to answer... There!

50
Character icon
Saki

And we have our result!

Time to hear a secret that Hona can only reveal to us now!

51
Character icon
Honami

A secret? U-Um...

52
Character icon
Honami

S-So, the last time we all had apple pie at my house, I gave everyone slices, but those were actually from a whole pie...

53
Character icon
Honami

And everything I didn't serve to all of you, I ate myself...

54
Character icon
Saki

Next is... A time MEIKO had the daylights shocked out of her!

55
Character icon
MEIKO

The other day, I was playing the drums alone...

I was building up, building up to the end of the song, and when the last hit of the cymbal rang out...

56
Character icon
MEIKO

I saw something...!

57
Character icon
Ichika

Huh? Saw...what...?

58
Character icon
Rin

She saw me jump out of the locker with a “ta-da!”

59
Character icon
Miku

S-So that was all...

60
Character icon
Luka

I didn't think you would have that sort of embarrassing story, KAITO...

61
Character icon
Len

Well, don't let it get to you.

Everyone's stumbled on the rail of a sliding door before.

62
Character icon
KAITO

Ahh...

63
Character icon
Shiho

I guess everyone's talked now...?

64
Character icon
Saki

Wait, we made it all the way around?!

That was too fast, let's go around one more time!

65
Character icon
Honami

But it's already pretty late, you know?

66
Character icon
Len

Yeah. It'll probably be tough work getting all the bedding laid out, so don't you think we should start getting ready to sleep soon?

67
Character icon
Saki

Oh... Okaaay...

68
Character icon
Ichika

Alright, let's move these desks and chairs aside and lay out the bedding.

69
Character icon
Rin

Nice, the bedding's looking good!

70
Character icon
Miku

Now all that's left is to sleep.

71
Character icon
Saki

Once we fall asleep, our sleepover's gonna end... That's kinda sad, but... This was fun!

72
Character icon
Ichika

It was...

Plus, now you're pretty much done going through the list of things you wanted to do, right?

73
Character icon
Saki

Yeah! Now I just need to make the photo album!

74
Character icon
Saki

I have lots of pictures thanks to everyone's help, so I'll make them into the best album ever!

75
Character icon
Shiho

Oh...

76
Character icon
Shiho

Hey, Saki.

Actually, there's something we wanted to give you.

77
Character icon
Saki

Huh?

78
Character icon
Shiho

It's these...

79
Character icon
Saki

They're...pictures?

80
Character icon
Saki

Oh...! They're all from when I was doing the stuff on my list...! So you guys were taking pictures for me too!

81
Character icon
Ichika

Yeah. But it's not just that.

82
Character icon
Honami

We took them so you'd be the focus.

83
Character icon
Saki

Huh...?

84
Character icon
Ichika

Shiho noticed something.

She pointed out that there weren't many good shots of you in the pictures you were getting together for your album.

85
Character icon
Saki

Wait, there weren't...?

86
Character icon
Shiho

Yeah. Don't you think it'd be a shame if you went to the trouble of making the album and it didn't have any pictures of you having fun?

87
Character icon
Shiho

That's why I thought you should also include some pictures where you're the focus.

88
Character icon
Saki

Shiho... You guys...

89
Character icon
Saki

Thank you!!!

90
Character icon
Shiho

Whoa...!

91
Character icon
MEIKO

Hahaha!

Saki, you went full steam ahead!

92
Character icon
Rin

They took a dive into the bedding!

That looks fun! I wanna try tooo!

93
Character icon
Shiho

Geez... Saki, you know that was dangerous...

94
Character icon
Saki

Hehehe, but I was just so happy♪

95
Character icon
Shiho

Yeah, yeah... Well, we were about to sleep anyway, so I guess I'll stay where I am and do just that.

96
Character icon
Honami

Hehe, we should get settled as well.

97
Character icon
Ichika

Yeah.

98
Character icon
Len

Alright, KAITO and I'll be heading over to the classroom next door.

99
Character icon
KAITO

Good night.

100
Character icon
Saki

Good niiight!

101
Character icon
Rin

Hehe♪

It's kinda exciting sleeping in the same room as everyone else!

102
Character icon
Ichika

You're right.

I guess it'd be kind of a shame to just fall asleep right away.

103
Character icon
Miku

Oh... Then, Saki, could you show us the pictures everyone gave you?

104
Character icon
Luka

That would be wonderful.

I want to hear all about the memories they represent too.

105
Character icon
Saki

Sure!

Okay, which one to talk about...? Let's see...

106
Character icon
Saki

Oh, this one! This is of the time we ate crepes on Takeue Street! So you were taking pictures here, too!

107
Character icon
Honami

We took it while you were lost in your crepe.

108
Character icon
MEIKO

Haha!

It does look like she's really enjoying it.

109
Character icon
Luka

Hehe, her mouth's open so wide.

110
Character icon
Saki

Ah... But Shiho totally didn't notice that she had whipped cream on her nose!

111
Character icon
Shiho

Hey now. I said to forget about that, didn't I?

112
Character icon
Saki

Heh heh heh. I expertly captured whipped-cream-Shiho, so I will never forget it!

113
Character icon
Shiho

Don't put it in the album, alright...?

114
Character icon
Saki

Ohhh? What to do, what to do...?

115
Character icon
Saki

Mrgh...

116
Character icon
Honami

Heh...

117
Character icon
Honami

Saki fell asleep...

118
Character icon
Ichika

Hehe. She'll probably pout tomorrow when she finds out she was the first to fall asleep.

119
Character icon
Shiho

Well, she did drift off while chatting, so doesn't that mean she accomplished what she wanted to do during this sleepover?

120
Character icon
Saki

Mhm... I can't drink any more chocolate...

121
Character icon
Shiho

What kind of dream is she having...?

122
Character icon
Luka

She looks to be sleeping very happily.

123
Character icon
Shiho

She does...

124
Character icon
Shiho

Good night, Saki.
