It's so nice out again today.

It's the perfect day for a little snooze.

If I don't, the deity of napping is sure to punish me♪

So, nighty night...

*Sigh*

You're sighing again.

I mean...

Oh, it's Nene and the others.

They must have finished practice.

Hello, everyone.

Oh, Luka!

Hello!

Were you taking another nap today?

Yes, because it's so nice out.

It's so sunny, smiley and sleepy♪

But Nene, you don't look so good...

Is something wrong?

Oh, uhh... The thing is...

Really? You're going to work part-time all by yourself?

Yeah...

I'm worried because I don't really know anyone there.

You'll do fine, Nene♪

I agree! I mean, you did the night show, a show with Asahi and his troupe, practiced with Shunmeiza and helped make a film!

But...

You've gained the strength to make this work, Nene. All that's left is for you to take a shot in the dark!

What if I miss...?

...

(Nene seemed to be feeling a little better after hearing her friends show their support, but I'm still sensing no small amount of anxiety...)

...

The weather's so nice...

But I don't feel sleepy at all...

Aha☆ There you are, Luka♪

Thank goodness♪ Do you have time to talk about our next show?

Yes, I'm free to talk...

You seem a little down.

Did something happen?

Oh, so...

I see. Which is why you're worried about Nene...

Now that you mention it, she did look a bit anxious before we even started practicing.

But I get how she feels.

I mean, no one she knows is gonna be there, right?

It's scary not knowing if you'll be able to make friends.

But I think she's gonna do just fine♪

I agree.

If anything, she should be worrying about...

Becoming so nervous during the day of that she freezes up. Even though she should do just fine, her anxiety may prevent her from doing so...

If she feels nervous already, it might be even worse when the actual day comes.

Right.

Can't we do anything for her?

Of course we can☆

You just gotta go visit her that morning, Luka, and give her anxiety the old fluffy-duffy-cuddly-wuddly-sockatooey♪

The old fluffy-duffy-cuddly-wuddly-sockatooey?

Hehe. I believe she's trying to say that you should go over and show your support by visiting her.

Yup☆

You're the softest and cuddliest out of all of us, Luka. So, you should use your powers to help Nene relax♪

That's a wonderful thought.

But wouldn't MEIKO or KAITO do a better job of cheering her on?

Yes, we could take your place.

But I think you're the one who wishes to help Nene the most out of all of us right now!

I agree. I believe you're the best person for the job, Luka. Especially since you've already talked to her about it.

True...

Then, I'll go visit Nene and give her anxiety the old fluffy-duffy-cuddly-wuddly-sockatooey♪

Alright, now you just need to make sure to be awake the day you're supposed to go see her.

That won't be a problem♪

I have you to wake me up, don't I, MEIKO?

I had a feeling you'd say that.

If push comes to shove, I'm really going to shove, okay?

Hehe. I feel so much better now...

Huh? Luka?

Zzz... Zzz...

She fell asleep...

Did all that thinking tire her out?

Maybe we should wait to talk about our next show...

Sounds good!
