A Recipe For Idols… (1)

1

Niki

Aah…things went great last month~

We gathered around the campfire and ate a bunch of meat! I’m actually really glad that I joined the “Overnight Outdoors Party” group.

Mitsuru

I had a blast setting up the tent! Last year, Ra*bits and I were able to set up a campsite on campus with Ado-chan-senpai’s help.

But this year I was the one helping people out! I’ve really become someone other people can count on, ehe~

Niki

Yeah, Tenma-kun, you were really a big help. I wasn’t really sure what I should do besides cook, so your help was really appreciated.

I wonder where we’re camping next~? I’m fine with anywhere as long as I can eat a filling meal.

Mitsuru

I really wanna go overseas! If it’s part of a circle activity, then we’ll get a grant right? That means we’ll get a special kind of money that’ll give us a freebie trip!

Niki

Nyahaha…it’s a bit tough to apply to go overseas though~ You go to apply, and suddenly they’ll turn down your application in a heartbeat.

If you’re really adamant on going, why not take a personal vacation? If you decide to go during an unpopular season, then you might be able to save money on a ticket.

Mitsuru

Ehh, but it’ll be boring if I go alone. I wanna go with someone~…

…Ah, it’s Leo-chan-senpai and Anzu-nee-chan!

Leo-chan-senpai, take me with you to Florence!

Leo

Alright, alright! I’ll take you, but only if I can put you in my luggage.

My suitcase is super small so you’d have to be tiny enough to fit, ‘kay? Wahaha~

Mitsuru

Uu, I’m not giving up on this! Anzu-nee-chan, help me shrink!

Nee-chan is a really good Producer, so I think you can manage it~!

Niki

Tenma-kun, you’re being too reckless! Nee-san is worried about something.

…Nn, what’s that? “Personalized outfit”? You’re wondering what happened to the idea I had for it a week ago?

Uwah, I am so sorry. I was so busy trying to whip up a new recipe that I completely forgot about it!

Leo

Oioi, what’s with this “personalized outfit” thing everyone is making a fuss about~?

Mitsuru

Oh yeah! I was really excited to hear about it!

Poor Anzu-nee-chan, you must’ve been waiting for a while!

Niki

I’m sorry. Uu, I probably caused a lot of trouble for you.

I’ll think of something right now! Ummmmm…

I can’t come up with anything. I really don’t care about fashion. I even ask store clerks to help me with my casual clothes~…

Niki

…Oh! What about an edible outfit? I remember reading an article online that said something about clothes made of chocolate!

Mitsuru

There’s such thing as that?! I looove chocolate! I wanna wear that too!

Ooh. Nee-chan is looking it up on her phone and really thinking about it!

You got this, Anzu-nee-chan, you got this! I’ll be cheering you on~!

Eh? You think it’s not impossible to do, but you’re afraid the lighting is gonna melt it?

Oh. I think Nee-chan is right about that. If you try to dash on a stage covered in chocolate, you’ll slip and fall.

Niki

Uun…but I really liked that idea…

Ah, Anzu-neesan. Are you free right now? Would you like to go somewhere?

Rinne-kun mentioned that you two came up with the idea for his “personalized outfit” while you were out, is that right?

I can’t come up with anything sitting here, so I want to try thinking while I’m out with you, Nee-san~

Leo

Sorry, no can do! She’s supposed to be at a PV meeting with Knights right now. Right, Anzu?

Niki

Ah, really? It can’t be helped then, sorry about that.

…You’re free later in the evening, so it’s fine then?

Uwah! Thank you so much, Nee-san!

Come to the cafeteria after you’re all done. I’ll be waiting for you until then~

Two hours later.

Niki

(…I wonder what kind of “personalized outfit” would work for me~?)

(I’ve gotten pretty interested in idol stuff, but I still don’t know what kind of idol I want to be.)

(And yet, I can come up with recipes all the time with no problem. It’s so weird!)

HiMERU

Are you eating dinner, Shiina?

Niki

Oh! Hi there, HiMERU-kun, Kohaku-chan.

Kohaku

That’s not usually the serving you usually get, is it, Niki-han? It won’t be enough will it?

Niki

Nyaha. I actually plan on eating dinner later, this is just a light snack~

I have plans to go out, so I need to be ready to go at any time.

Kohaku

Plans? …Ah, Anzu-han.

Niki

Have you finished everything you needed to? Good work today~

…You want me to take my time eating? Don’t worry about that, give me just a second~

Mogumogu…gokkun! Thank you for the food~!

Well, we’ll be off now. See you tomorrow, you two~!

Nee-san, where are we headed? I’ll be with you all night~!

Kohaku

HiMERU

Kohaku

Is it just me, or did he just say “I’ll be with you all night”?

HiMERU

No, HiMERU heard that too.

Kohaku

Great. Glad I’m not hearing things~

Wait, this is no time to feel relieved! Wha?! Are those two a thing now or something?

HiMERU

HiMERU isn’t sure. There haven’t been any signs of that.

We may be in the same unit, but that doesn’t mean we know everything about each other. Strange, isn’t it.

Kohaku

You’re telling me! But this is Niki-han we’re talking about!

I feel like I just saw something impossible. I wonder if Rinne-han knows anything about this…?
