Chapter 1: A Proposal

Summary:

Kasumi makes a proposal

Chapter Text

Arisa still can’t believe Yukina-senpai actually invited them to Roselia’s newest live the other day, in fact she’s still thinking about it after the live show was over.

“That was so, so, so! Kira Kira Doki Doki!!” Kasumi exclaimed when they walked out
“I totally know what you mean” said O-Tae, “Their concert reminded me of when Oddie eats 3 carrots instead of just 2”
“Really? I thought it was more like when freshly baked bread comes out of the oven, worth the wait!”
“What are you guys even talking about?! Can’t you just say it was cool or something? Why all the analogies?”
But even Arisa had to admit, no matter what you compared it too it was good. Really good.
“Oh Yukina-senpai! Your live was so cool! You guys were sparkling on stage a whole lot today!!” we all turned to look at Yukina-senpai who just walked out of CiRCLE with Lisa-san in tow.
“Haha, really?! Did you hear that Yukina? Sparkling!” she seemed to laugh at something she thought funny, probably an inside joke, but that didn’t stop Kasumi from laughing too
“Really! Actually”, she paused to think, “ We should put on a joint live together!”
“WHAT?!?”
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It’s been a week since Kasumi proposed a group live and a week since Yukina-senpai mysteriously agreed to it
”I’m just surprised she didn’t say something like ‘Roselia doesn’t play with amateurs’ not agree!” Arisa adds to the ongoing conversation.
“Well we have been hanging out with more Roselia members recently” Rimi says “I mean, Arisa is in the student council with Hikawa-senpai and Rinko-senpai, Asuka-chan hangs out with Ako-chan and Lisa-san is practically friends with everyone! Maybe now that we’re more friendly with each other, Yukina-senpai figured we could play together?” before anyone could entertain that thought the door swung open to reveal Roselia.

As they started the meeting Arisa could feel her heart racing. Just how intense is this live going to be?! How much practice will Yukina-senpai even want?! Am I even going to have any time to care for my bonsai?! she thought, but surprisingly Sayo-senpai washed her worries away
“We’ve decided that we should do a fairly laid-back live show, for the benefit of both bands of course” oh thank god, my schedule stays alive for another day.
“Anyways we should split into groups of 2 to complete tasks, Shirokane-san can you explain the groups?”
“Uhm- o-of course, I and whoever decides to join me... will be making the costumes..., Imai-san… and whoever helps her will be taking care of food… and the afterparty, Yukina-san will be working... on a new song, Hikawa-san… on reserving the… event and the schedules… and Ako-chan… will be working on… decorations…”
“Yep!” Ako interrupts “Ako’s gonna make the coolest decorations ever!!”
“Well we should start picking out what jobs we want, you guys”
“Yeah, Saaya’s right! Well in that case I’ll go with Yukina-senpai! I am the lead singer after all!”
“Good luck, Yukina-senpai, Kasumi’s kinda difficult when it comes to lyrics”
“Hey! Arisaaa~”
Everyone laughs at Kasumi lying down on the table 'in betrayal'
“Haha, Lisa-san, mind if I help with the afterparty and snacks?”
“Of course not! We could make bread for everyone!”
“I’ve always been interested in your beautiful designs Rinko-senpai! Do you mind if I helped you?”
“Your….help is always...appreciated….Ushigome-san…”
“So I’ll help with the booking, oh I know, we should ask ROCK if we can do it Galaxy!”
“We should at least look at other options first Hanazono-san!”
“Well” As Kasumi turns to look at Arisa, all the other girls do too, “That just leaves you and Ako on decorations!”
“Don’t worry Arisa! Together we’ll make the coolest decorations this world has ever seen!!” and Ako smiles at her.
