(*Sigh*
It's still gonna take a while to get where we're going.)
(I know.
Maybe we could use this time to see if that schedule I shared with everyone yesterday looks okay.)
Hey, every—
Oh...
Is something the matter, Airi?
Oh, I was hoping that we could check over that schedule I sent you all yesterday...
But I guess these two can't right now.
They're fast asleep.
We have been pretty busy lately.
I'd rather not wake then, so maybe we can look over our schedule after we get to the inn.
Sounds good.
Still, it's a shame that they're sleeping instead of seeing this beautiful scenery...
Whoa, you're right!
It's so beautiful... Nothing but green as far as the eye can see...!
I've gotta post a picture of this!
(Hmm... What should I go for? More of a full landscape or a pic that includes the window to let everyone know we're traveling...?)
(Oh, or a shot of our reflections in the—)
Airi, look this way for me.
Huh?
Wait, hey! You could've warned me before taking that!
Hehe. I thought everyone online would like seeing us in our natural state.
I get what you mean...
But submit it for approval first. Idols still have to be idols even in their “natural state”!
Submit it for approval...?
Anyway, you're not posting that.
Our next one's gonna look a lot better. So, Haruka, smile!
Okay, one second. Ready?
Hey, not bad!
Let's go with this one!
Since we're uploading both, I'll also send you the other one.
Hey, I said we're not uploading that one!
Oh... We got another email for work.
Come to think of it, we still have a few that we haven't replied to yet.
Need any help?
Thanks for offering, but I'm okay for now. I'll just reply to the most urgent ones.
(That being said, it has been getting hard lately to actually deal with everything all on our own.)
(As nice as it is that we're getting all these offers, dealing with scheduling has been hard on all of us...)
(So, we really could use a manager.)
(Anyway, I'm gonna reply to all the emails that need my attention right now.)
Airi, are you all finished?
Yeah, for now.
Were you reading a book just now, Haruka?
Yeah, it's a novel that one of our fans recommended. I was hoping to share my thoughts on it during a stream in the future.
Oh, a novel...?
I'm pretty close to finishing it, so want to borrow it once I'm done? It's actually pretty good.
I am interested, but I'll pass for now.
Reading for too long on a moving train might make me sick.
Speaking of which, Haruka, do you not get motion sickness or anything? You seemed pretty focused just now.
No, now that you mention it, I don't really get motion sickness or anything. Even when I was still in ASRUN, I read scripts during our rides over...
Oh, I remember going through fan mail while on buses for shoots. That usually gave me all the motivation I needed to do my best.
Wow... I guess that means your inner ear's tough to agitate.
(Still, it's really like her to think of her fans even during a bus ride.)
Um, Haruka?
Yes?
I'm not letting you hog the spotlight during this shoot!
I wouldn't want you to.
Let's make it a good one.
