With how much we prepared for that tournament, it shouldn't really be a surprise that our team did well. I'm proud of my team, definitely. Good job, everyone! Let's go all the way!

And as for you, well, I don't really know what to say. I guess it's kind of a good thing that you picked me for this Muse business. Samezuka's presence should be felt more (we're the Samezuka Swimming Team!) and you know I'll do a great job in spearheading that! Captain Mikoshiba of the Samezuka Swim Club at your service!

[Somebody's excessively cheery.]

Well... we did practice a lot.

[nowpracticehard]

Yes we did! [And Rin gets a hard slap on the shoulder because that's how his Captain shows his affection and enthusiasm.] Let's do even better in the Regionals!

[cantmoveforward]

[That tosses Rin's body forward. He immediately looks back at his Captain with a cold glare.]

I don't need you to tell me that.

[nowpracticehard]

Well, no, but reminders from your Captain are kind of a requirement. We can't have anyone forgetting now.

[cantmoveforward]

Well...

...you don't need to be so energetic about it.

[nowpracticehard]

[He laughs and Rin gets another clap on the shoulder.]

But what's the fun in that? Matsuoka, really. You can be more cheerful.

[cantmoveforward]

[He takes a few steps away from the captain. No more shoulder claps!]

I'd rather save all my energy for the upcoming competitions

[nowpracticehard]

You're too serious, but I guess that's not so bad. Just no drugs and all that. Okay?

1/...

[cantmoveforward]

There's nothing bad about being too serious. You need to do everything to chase after your dream...

[What did he say?]

3/3

[SDLJHKLDASLKDFJ]

Who said anything about drugs?

[aquasexual]

Congratulations.

[nowpracticehard]

Thanks, Nanase! You guys do your best in the relay, okay?

[aquasexual]

.. We plan to.

The same to your team, too.

[nowpracticehard]

Thanks again.

[Nanase's such a quiet guy.]

[aquasexual]

[ he nods, still apathetic to their positions and the battling situation they are currently in. there's nothing else for him to say, he feels, so Haru falls silent and allows the other to take the reigns of their very short conversation. ]

[nowpracticehard]

So...

[Now what? What do they have in common?]

...How is Gou-kun nowadays?

[aquasexual]

[ Gou—? ]

She's fine. Having fun as our manager, I think.

[nowpracticehard]

Really? Well, that's good.

[How to bring up what he means to bring up...]

[aquasexual]

[ Go the Haru way: bluntly. ]

.. Mhm. She's happy.

[captainwhale]

Yes, congratulations, Captain Mikoshiba!

You guys were really impressive--especially your 100m.

[nowpracticehard]

Captain Tachibana! Thank you. We all worked hard to do well.

You and your team all set for that relay?

[No results yet so do your best, Iwatobi!]

[deltogling]

Congratulations on the record, too.

[nowpracticehard]

G-Gou-kun! [Here's someone he really likes seeing and it makes him happy that she takes the time to congratulate him too. He grins but still kind of flushes a little.] Thank you. I hope your team does well in the relay, too.

[Aaaah, she's so cute!]

[notgou]

Mou... Don't put Gou and Kun together.

[She's going to end up telling you this forever and ever.]

Same, thanks. I sort of sprung it on them last minute.

[nowpracticehard]

Ah, sorry. I forget. [He'll probably forget again next time.]

What? Really? How'd they take that?

[Surprises like that can be very stressful!]

[notgou]

[At this point, he'll probably never remember.]

Ah- Well, they were caught off guard but seemed to look forward to it. We had to go find Haruka-senpai though as he left ahead of us.

[nowpracticehard]

[Well, "Kou" isn't really her name, is it?]

But you found him and it was all good.

[notgou]

[It's practically the same, just read in a way that's not boyish. The kun is just so much worse.]

Mm. Luckily he got home to hear the message early enough.

[carcharhinidae]

Are you trying to play Captain to your mun now too?

[nowpracticehard]

No? Not really. But hey, if she wants to join the team, she's more than welcome to!

[carcharhinidae]

You talk like you'd just let anyone onto the team. What if she doesn't even swim?

[nowpracticehard]

Then she can do something else. We can have people help out by handling other stuff for the team.
