[Nico made sure to show up before everyone else besides Maki to mark her territoryestablish dominance make sure no one got any ideas about who had the most familiarity with this house. Somehow, the idea of this setting where she often came to relax, away from the chaos of her own home, being filled with the noise of seven other girls just rubbed her the wrong way... and if she couldn't stop it, she sure was going to control it, or die trying.]
[Practice]
[This time, Nico's not only coaching with a little less vitriol, but she's also putting on her own practices, with her pokemon or the other girls.

[Some girls may be crowding the screen, completely taken in as the climactic scene reaches its dramatic peak, but not Nico. No, Nico is far too mature for such childish behavior. Which is why she's sitting in the back sobbing her eyes out as she watches with rapt attention.]
I, I'm so glad! They finally said it! I'm so glad...
[Pokemon contest]
Hmph, I'll show you girls what a real talent is!
[Nico's all dressed out and ready to perform with her shiny whimsicott... who has a particularly evil look on its face and apparently other plans.]
[Sleeping Spots/Pillow fight]
Well, I think we should just lay them down in order of arrival and-
