A Musical Practice

[honokairo]

Who: The Love Live! Girls, anyone who lives at Hikawa Shrine, and anyone leaving and entering the shrine! And stalkers. There are stalkers.
What: Practice for performing on stage! Their first practice ever.
When: Sometime in the afternoon, after school is over.
Where: Hikawa Shrine, Union.
Summary: Honoka has finally managed to amass a group of people to get together as a little musical group to perform. They are going to try to practice together for the first time, and that could go any number of ways.

"Hello everyone!" She shouts once all the girls who she expected to come to practice arrive. "I wasn't sure where we could practice, but I'm so glad Rei let us come here and use the courtyard! So!"

She stands, feet at shoulder width, in front of the girls, looking determined as ever.

"We'll do some singing first! And after a little break, we'll try dancing! Someone will need to clap for us to keep time, but we can alternate who does that so everyone gets to practice dancing. And then! We can get something to eat when we're done! If there's someone you don't know, get to know them a little bit before we begin our practice!"

"Okay! Let's start!"

You're getting the completely wrong idea!

[ Maki is up in arms, but really, she's just twirling her hair, forcing herself to look away from Kotori, to hide her face. Why would she even think that her and Nico are anything like that? ]

W-We're just like...rivals. We both want similar things, so we're helping each out for now. I've been teaching her how to play the piano and she's been helping me take care of my Pokemon and my dancing.

[Oh gosh, they have the same goals and compliment each other's weaknesses! That is truly a match made in heaven, right? even if her friend seems shy about it every word she mutters seems to engrave that idea further into her mind.]

Working towards the same goal with somebody you can rely on is truly wonderful. I'm happy for you, really!

[Her smile is wide and innocent. She is completely misunderstanding.]

[ It's none of those things! Maki and Nico can barely get along for more than a day. She went and tried to apologize and everyone on the network saw it, while she publicly embarrassed Nico. They have different views on just about everything. There's no way they are anything more than simply barely friends. Or so Maki sort of thinks.. ]

I never said I can rely on her! You're way off base!

[ Red and huffing, Maki is just going to turn her back. ] C-Come on, let's get back to practice now!

Maki's shy side is really cute~

[The disadvantage of being friends with her is that now she feels more comfortable with the feline shifter and that means this kind of friendly and a bit teasing treatment. Kotori is a harmless girl nonetheless, she means nothing bad by this.]

Mh? is break time over already?

[She looks at their demon coach's direction, noticing her sharp gaze. Yep, break time is over.]

[ Maki isn't upset with Kotori in the least. She can pretend she is, and even try to believe she is, but in the end, she doesn't hold a grudge against her. She just doesn't know Nico like Maki does. She doesn't know how impossible that girl is. How she can't even say what she really means half the time. But the thought of her relying on Nico...those thoughts won't be forgotten.

But with Umi staring at them, even Maki is quick to catch up, not wanting to get on her bad side. ]

Let's go!
