Wow, this place is huge! And everything's so pretty!

Here we are, you guys!

I've arrived at the venue for the Phoenix Bridal Fair!

<It's way bigger than I imagined!>

<What's that thing in the back? An aquarium?>

<Tell us more!>

Heh heh heh. I can tell you're all really excited♪ So, lemme start reporting on what's around me!

Let's see... Based on the pamphlet they were giving out...

This is the second Phoenix Bridal Fair, and the theme of this convention is “A Smile-Filled Wedding Designed Just For You!”

It looks like the dress exhibit, fitting area and the chapel next door for mock weddings are all back from the first time.

But the exhibit's supposed to be even more amazing this time around! And you can experience ceremonies that you wouldn't see normally!

<Are they that unusual?>

<Can you tell us more?>

So... They have ceremonies for trains, aquariums and the great outdoors...

<Like on a real train?!>

<An aquarium wedding sounds really fun!>

<Oh, imagine getting married while surrounded by nature!>

Apparently, there's also a wedding show scheduled for later. And it finishes by saying, “We hope you enjoy this supercharged iteration of the Phoenix Bridal Fair!”

I didn't know about this wedding show...!

That sounds like a lot of fun!

So, everyone, what should we check out first?

<The train wedding!>

<The fitting area!>

<You should go wherever you like, Minori.>

Oh no! So many different suggestions...!

Hmm... Where to go first...?

They all sound really fun, but...

E-Excuse me... Are you in need of assistance?

If you'd like, I can tell you more about what's available on each floor...

Oh, that'd be great!

Then... Wait, huh?

N-Nene...?!

H-Hanasato...?!

Why are you...?!

Wh-What are you doing here, Nene?!

I-It's a long story...!

Anyway, Hanasato, you have your phone on a selfie stick. Does that mean...?

Huh? Oh no!

<Are you friends with the staff, Minori?>

<Oh, can we see your friend more?>

No...!

Nene's in frame!

(Wh-What do I do?! I can't show her without asking for her permission first. Also, even with the camera pointed back at me now, us just talking would reveal too much information about her...!)

(As much as I don't wanna do this to everyone who's watching right now...!)

I-I'm really sorry, you guys, but I have to pause here for a second, for my friend's sake!

<I had a feeling.>

<Come back soon!>

<Have fun.>

Ph-Phew... That was close...

Th-Thanks, Hanasato...

Also, I'm sorry for interrupting your stream like that. I really had no idea it was you... Anyway, I'll let you get back to what you were doing!

N-No, that's okay!

My viewers said they'd wait for me.

More importantly, what are you doing here? And that dress you're wearing...!

So, uhh... The thing is...

Oh, you're working as a part-timer!

Yeah, but no one told me that I'd be wearing this dress until I got here today. That was a pretty big surprise...

Really...?!

Still, it looks amazing on you!

I mean, it's so you!

Plus, your hair and makeup are spot-on!

You really look like you're about to get married today!

Th-Thanks...

I'm still a little embarrassed, but I appreciate the compliment...

Does this mean you're gonna be wearing that dress all day while helping the guests?

I will be helping the guests...

But my job today mostly centers around the show.

Oh, I saw that in the pamphlet!

You guys are doing a wedding show, right?

Yeah, that's right.

“The Happy Wedding Show” will be taking place later tonight.

And helping the guests while wearing this dress is supposed to double as an advertisement for that.

I know you might not be able to since you're doing a stream, but I hope you'll be free later to come and see it.

Of course!

I should be done streaming by then, so I'll be there!

Hehe. Thanks, Hanasato.

Anyway, I shouldn't keep you from your fans. Feel free to resume your stream and...

Ms. Kusanagi, do you have a minute?

Oh, hold on.

By any chance...

Are you Minori Hanasato from MORE MORE JUMP!...?

Huh?

Y-Yes, I'm Minori Hanasato...

I knew it!

I'd heard about your stream, but I still wasn't expecting to see you here in person...!

Oh, I'm sorry...

My name is Nozaki. I'm in charge of marketing for this event.

My daughter's actually a huge MORE MORE JUMP! fan, and we watch your streams together often. I couldn't help but get a little giddy...

Wait, is that true?!

Th-That's so wonderful to hear!

You two seemed to be having a rather friendly chat just now, Ms. Kusanagi...

Oh, um... We're acquaintances.

We go to different schools, but we've practiced singing together before...

Ah, so you are friends.

You two do seem to be around the same age.

Our target demographic also included girls in your age group, Ms. Hanasato, so I'm glad you decided to come. Again, I heard that you'd be doing a stream here today...

Yes, that's right! My streams involve visiting places my viewers want to go and talking about what I see. I was actually just about to start taking a look around.

Oh, really?!

Then, I hope you enjoy everything!

Thank you!

I plan on seeing as much as I can since my viewers sounded very excited about this convention!

Your viewers...

...?

Is something the matter, Ms. Nozaki?

...

Ms. Hanasato? If possible...

I'd like to make an official offer regarding your stream today. Would you be willing to accept?

What?!

I know this is very sudden.

Normally, I'd contact your manager about this and go through all the necessary steps with them...

But us running into each other like this has to be more than a simple coincidence. So, if it's possible, would you be able to accept my offer? There's just so much we want to tell your viewers...

Tell them...?

Yes, about just how much fun weddings are.

These days, you hear people saying weddings cost too much, or that they're too much bother.

But if someone your age used her platform to show just how much fun weddings really are and how low-stress they can be, I feel that you'd be able to reach a wide audience...

Oh...

But again, I know this is very sudden...

If you don't feel comfortable accepting, then I'll understand.

Okay!

Please give me a minute to discuss with our group's manager!

O-Oh, but...

I still plan on showing as many things as I can during my stream either way, so there's no need for you to worry there!

R-Really?

Yes, really!

I think the message you're trying to send is really nice, and I want to make the most of all the opportunities I can get as an idol!

...!

(That's incredible...

I wouldn't be able to make a quick decision like that if I were put in her situation.)

(Her experience as a professional idol really comes through.)

Thank you very much, Ms. Hanasato...!

I'd also like to discuss this with your manager.

Thank you!

Oh, actually... I've already started streaming, and I'm keeping everyone waiting right now... Would it be okay for me to resume in the meantime?

Yes, of course.

Please feel free to resume whenever you like.

Oh, actually...

Would you like a member of the staff to join you? That should make covering everything much easier.

I know.

Would you mind lending her a hand, Ms. Kusanagi?

Huh?

M-Me...?!

Yes, since you two seem to be friends.

I figured that her stream would go much smoother with you as her guide...

Y-Yes, you're probably right... But...

(Doesn't this mean I have to show my face in front of the camera...? While wearing this dress, of all things...)

(But Hanasato's viewers should be focused on her, so maybe I shouldn't be so worried. Still...)

Would you like to help me, Nene?!

Oh, but it's totally okay if you don't feel up to it...!

Oh no...!

Those puppy-dog eyes...!

(I guess this'll be good experience for me...)

(If I want to perform all around the world as a pro myself, I need to get comfortable dealing with these sorts of situations.)

Okay.

I'll do it.

You will?!

Thank you so much!

Yay!

Thanks for doing this, Nene!

Yeah.

Thanks for having me...

This is going to be my first stream ever, so I don't know how everything will go... But I promise to do what I can.

No problem!

Let's do our best together!
