Drama CD 1

[orcaptain]

You're taking notes about me? I guess that's... Good? We're getting to know each other and that's important. I'm also glad that you're enjoying getting to know each one of us and you're not scared off just yet. I know Nagisa can be a bit much sometimes.

As for Rin, well, I think he's always been a good brother to Kou-chan, so what he did doesn't really surprise me. Rin may act the way he does, but he cares for Kou-chan very much and he'll do a lot, even walk around in a maid's uniform in front of everyone, to keep her safe.

[notgou]

Of course Rin's a good brother. It shouldn't surprise anyone.

[So matter-of-factly. Ah, but that maid outfit~ It was so nice! Right, must not dwell on that- other things.]

Nagisa really was... Well, I think the CD gave a lot to add to everyone's profiles!

[orcaptain]

It shouldn't, no, but I think my Mun was especially happy about that.

And that's true. It's nice that they're getting to know us better.

[deltogling]

The key to being the best with us is to know everything, after all! I can't wait for the next one to come out.

[orcaptain]

[He nods.]

It should be fun.

[Unlike this week's episode...]

[cantmoveforward]

{Have a little glare here and there.]

You could have stopped at me being a great brother.

[orcaptain]

I thought wearing the maid's uniform was particularly brave of you.

[He's not laughing at you, Rin. He thought it was very cool of you.]

[cantmoveforward]

You do...?

[He seems very skeptical about this.]

[orcaptain]

Well, I don't think I could do that without getting embarrassed.

[How can you be skeptical of that face, Rin?]

[notgou]

[This week's episode was definitely no-fun for anyone.]

Maybe you'll finally be able to tell Rei that times don't really improve when the way you swim is changing each time.

[cantmoveforward]

...right.

[Because it was a maid's uniform] How have you been?

[orcaptain]

Well, I can, but we don't know if he'll listen. Rei seems to be set on some things.

[orcaptain]

Good, good. I've been a bit busy. You?

[Running the swim club and everything. Please don't ask about the camp episode.]

[cantmoveforward]

Busy with what? [He's not answering Mako's question.

He'll ask about it. Because he wasn't able to talk to Makoto that day.]

[orcaptain]

Training for the competition. [Like you, Rin.] And school.

[He's not elaborating until you ask. It's not something he enjoys talking about.]

[notgou]

True... But he should at least know instead of Nagisa pushing him into more of those weird things during club time.

[cantmoveforward]

Oh...[He looked down and tried to think of a good way to ask about his training. They were actually training in the same island they were, and Makoto never even checked on Rin.]

...You were training in that island right?

[orcaptain]

[Makoto laughs.]

Nagisa only does that because Rei falls for it every time.

[orcaptain]

Yes, we were. We were there at the same time, right? Kou-chan told me.

[Thank goodness for Gou who does her best at keeping them up to date with each other.]

[cantmoveforward]

Why'd you have to do your training in the ocean...?

[orcaptain]

Well, everyone thought it was a good idea...

[Everyone but him, obviously.]

[cantmoveforward]

...but you didn't..!

[He reaches for Makoto's shoulders.]

[orcaptain]

[The sudden touch surprises him and it's obvious when his eyes widen.]

Well... Not exactly...

[cantmoveforward]

[He squeezes Makoto's shoulders gently.]

I'm surprised Haruka said yes to this too. I wouldn't have.

[notgou]

Well, that's true. It'll seem strange if he didn't.

[orcaptain]

[He smiles.]

I'm glad everyone is getting along very well.

[orcaptain]

[He looks to Rin in askance.]

You wouldn't?

[cantmoveforward]

I would never allow you to go through with something you're not comfortable with.

...Does it sound so unbelievable?

[notgou]

Mm~ Did you worry that it wouldn't work out?

[Just a bit of curiosity.]

[orcaptain]

[He looks at Rin for a long moment but then he smiles warmly, as if he has gotten an idea and is relieved about it.]

No, not really. Thank you, Rin.

[orcaptain]

Not really. Haru is happy as long as he gets to swim, Rei is inspired, Nagisa is happy just to swim with everyone and we've got Kou-chan. It's still nice to see it in reality, though, don't you think?

[cantmoveforward]

[He just looks at that smile and silently contemplating on it. Makoto's smile was simply too precious.

He just nods, and starts to walk away.]

[orcaptain]

Oh, you're going now?

[Were they done talking?]

[notgou]

That's true. It is definitely nice to see it in front of you.

[cantmoveforward]

[He turned towards Makoto for a brief moment.]

You know where to find me..
