Video:

[She figures not everyone knows her name (most probably don't) so here she is again, introducing herself-]

Hi everyone! I'm Honoka Kousaka, from Caldera! I came to Union a while ago, and I wasn't sure what I would find, but what I did find was...

Singing! And dancing! And that makes people happy! [Guess who's seen some shows and went to the charity concert.]

I'm not very good, but I've been practicing. I have a Jigglypuff who's been giving me lessons, and she scolds me sometimes for messing up, but I've been working hard! And maybe one day, a bunch of us can do the same thing together.

I want to know if anyone else likes to do that too!

Action:

[Honoka can be found out in Union in various places. Idol training is hard! And Jigglypuff is making her run. She looks worn out and is whining a little about it, but she's still trying.

Later, there's dance lessons...those are going alright, but then she's not exceptionally talented at it either. It's obvious if you happen across their path.

And at the end of the day, singing lessons, right outside too- and Honoka sounds okay, but that Swellow that's with them trying to sing along is horrific!]

Comments

No, only to come watch! [But she comes and sits down at the invite, happily plopping herself down.]

[Taking a look on the notes on the page, she blinks a few times. It doesn't look too hard, but then again, she didn't exactly get much instruction due to the war efforts.]

I think I remember this from music class when I was little. This is C, isn't it? [She points, miraculously, to C, inside the staff.] There's a word for all these notes in the spaces...but I don't remember anymore. Do you know what it is, Maki?

[cutiepanther]

..I guess I can come watch then.

[ Maki has a wall built around her, and she feels like Honoka is just slowly chipping away at it and she's not sure how she feels about it.

The other girl picking out C does surprise her though, going so far as giving Honoka a smile. ]

That's right! I'm surprised you knew that, Honoka. ...You mean "FACE" right? [ It's been a while since Maki's done such childish studies of music, but it's still funny to her. ]

[honokairo]

Yes! I learned it a long time ago! There's another name for the lines too! [She points to the bottom line on the staff.] I know that's E, and this one is F, but I forgot the rest!

[She's happy she remembered that much. But she does like music, it just...wasn't necessary for her to know for a long time.]

[cutiepanther]

Are you sure you forget?

[ Maki plays those notes a few times in slow succession, trying to jog the girl's memory. If she already knows this much about reading music and singing, it would make Honoka's success as a singer happen quicker and easier. Not that Maki is worried about Honoka's future or anything! ]

Try to remember.

[honokairo]

[She closes her eyes tightly. Ahhhh, she can't remember, E...something....something else....why is this so hard, it's like studying for a test.]

E....D.... no that's not it! Ohhhhhh, E! ....A... Aaaaahhh!

[Frustrating!]

E...G...? [Maybe. Maybe that's it.]
