Mafuyu's Room
Mafuyu: ...
Mafuyu: (The lyrics are coming along well. But our new song is the one that Kanade made specifically for Ena...)
Mafuyu: (A cloudy sky with rays of light shining barely through while a girl looking up...)
Mafuyu: (There's Ena's artwork too, so I may want to make the lyrics match more closely with it...)
Ena: <Everyone, I'm back!>
Mafuyu: <Welcome back, Enanan.>
Ena: <Hm? Just you, Yuki?>
Mafuyu: <K's on mute until 25:00. She said she wants to concentrate.>
Ena: <Okay... How about Amia?>
Mafuyu: <Convenience store.>
Ena: <Alright. I guess it'll be a little quiet for a while.>
Mafuyu: <But you're here.>
Ena: <What? I'm hardly obnoxious or anything. Especially as long as Amia doesn't bug me.>
Mafuyu: <Really...?>
Ena: <Yes, really! And as long as you don't say anything weird.>
Ena: <Now, I'll go back to working quietly.>
Mafuyu: <Okay.>
Mafuyu: (Oh... I should've asked her about her art...)
Mafuyu: ...
Mafuyu: Hm?
Mafuyu: (An image file? It's from Ena...?)
Ena: <Yuki, are you free now?>
Mafuyu: <Is this about that image?>
Ena: <Yeah. I wanted you to see my rough draft.>
Ena: <You showed your lyrics to K yesterday, right? I was hoping to draw something more reflective of what you wrote. Is that okay...?>
Mafuyu: <One moment. I'll take a look.>
Mafuyu: (A girl's hunched over on the ground while it's raining...)
Mafuyu: <There isn't much else other than the overall design, so I can't say much...>
Mafuyu: (Oh, the way I said that might make her mad...)
Ena: <Ah, okay... I'll try to develop the subject matter a little more then...>
Mafuyu: <You're not mad...?>
Ena: <If I got mad at every word you said, I'd end up pulling all my hair out.>
Mafuyu: <Oh, okay...>
Ena: <Yuki...?>
Ena: <Is there something you want to ask? It sounds like you've at least reached the point of being able to so...>
Mafuyu: <Then...>
Ena: <Yes...?>
Mafuyu: <This is just what I thought I've been seeing, but why do you get mad so much, Enanan?>
Ena: <Because I'm proud of my work and what I do.>
Ena: <If you worked genuinely hard on something and though it was good but are told it wasn't, you'd be mad too, right?>
Mafuyu: <I see...>
Ena: <But I want to hear what others think in this case, so I'm prepared to receive some criticism.>
Mafuyu: <Does that mean you want to improve your art despite any negative feedback or thoughts?>
Ena: <Yes.>
Mafuyu: <Okay...>
Mafuyu: <You really love art, don't you?>
Ena: <Of course I do! I wouldn't be able to keep drawing like this if I didn't!>
Mafuyu: <...>
Mafuyu: <I still don't really understand that. But the ability to cling to one thing so tightly...>
Ena: <Cling...? Can't you say that in a way that doesn't make me sound desperate?>
Mafuyu: <But that's how I saw it.>
Ena: <You're so...>
Mafuyu: <I don't have anything that makes me passionate or heated like you, Enanan.>
Mafuyu: <I don't even know what the real me wants to actually do with herself.>
Ena: <I know. I get that...>
Ena: <But there's a big difference between not having anything and not knowing, right?>
Mafuyu: <There is...?>
Ena: <Anyways, I need to get back to work.>
Mafuyu: <Enanan...? Oh, maybe she's muted...>
Mafuyu: ...
Mafuyu: (The difference between not having anything and not knowing...)
Mafuyu: (So I should try to learn more then...?)
Mafuyu: That may be difficult for me...

Side Story 2


Mafuyu's Room
Mafuyu: <K, I made some changes to the lyrics. Can you take a look?>
Kanade: <Okay. I'll take a look in a second.>
Kanade: <This is really good. They were good before, but I like the new version much more...>
Mizuki: <Oh, let's see... The chorus and the lead up to it are different!>
Mafuyu: <Yes. I tried to make it so it matches more closely with Ena's art.>
Mizuki: <Oh, okay... Yeah, I totally get it! I think I like this version more!>
Mafuyu: <I'll keep going in this direction then.>
Ena: <Hey, everyone. Do you have a minute...?>
Mizuki: <Enanan! Is focus time all done?>
Ena: <For now. I sent you all a rough draft if you could take a look.>
Mafuyu: (It's changed from before... The girl hunched over in the rain has a different expression...)
Ena: <So, how is it...?>
Kanade: <I think it's good.>
Mizuki: <Me too♪ This is gonna change into that scene where the lights starts shining through the clouds, right?>
Mizuki: <The music video's gonna have some good drama to it! Enanan, I wanna get started too so...>
Ena: <I know! That's why I'm working so hard!>
Ena: <And how about you, Yuki? What do you think?>
Mafuyu: <I think the girl is fine... But the background feels like a mess and takes away from it...>
Ena: <...>
Mizuki: <So that's what Yuki thinks! I sort of like it how it is now, but everything other than the girl's expression might be blurring together a little.>
Ena: <Okay. Thanks for your thoughts, everyone.>
Mizuki: <Wait... You're not gonna get mad today?>
Ena: <Yeah, yeah. There's no point in getting mad for no reason, right?>
Ena: <Anyways, I'll get back to work.>
Mizuki: <Is it just me or did Enanan seem a little different?>
Kanade: <She did. I feel like she's much more relaxed now.>
Mafuyu: <I see...>
The next day
Mafuyu: Only a little more time until 25:00. Maybe I should take a short break and... Hm...?
Mafuyu: (Ena messaged me directly? A URL?)
Ena: <Could you take a quick look at that site?>
Mafuyu: (What could it be...?)
Mafuyu: (Hmm... Dysgeusia. Discussing It's Symptoms and Causes...?)
Mafuyu: ...
Mafuyu: <What is this?>
Ena: <Can't you see just by looking? I started wondering and found this after doing a little digging.>
Mafuyu: <Okay.>
Mafuyu: (Dysgeusia: a distorted or decreased sense of taste... I see. I don't really understand how food tastes either so...)
Mafuyu: (It's causes... Primarily zinc deficiency... Really?)
Mafuyu: (Oh, and... Zinc is necessary for the brain to process the sensation of taste.)
Mafuyu: (Zinc deficiency may occur as a result of a severely imbalanced diet or even stress...)
Mafuyu: ...
Mafuyu: (Each of these specific symptoms match up with most of the things that I've been feeling...)
Mafuyu: (Does that mean this is an illness?)
Mafuyu: Hm? Another message from Ena?
Ena: <I thought that this might help you, so I hope you'll give it a try.>
Mafuyu: ...
Mafuyu: <Why?>
Ena: <I said it's because I just felt like it, right?>
Mafuyu: <That's not what I'm asking. Why are you being so nice to me?>
Ena: <You've been giving me advice about my art lately, so I thought I should return the favor a little.>
Ena: <For some reason, everything you say ends up being right...>
Ena: <The thing you said about my draft yesterday... I wasn't sure what to do about the background, and you just came right out with that...>
Ena: <You're not much of a smooth talker, but what you say is correct.>
Mafuyu: (I see.)
Ena: <Plus, you're a genius and all, so it just seems like a waste to not put your talents to better use.>
Ena: <If you start understanding your own feelings more, the songs we make together should also start getting better and better. You'll be helping out K a lot too.>
Ena: <That's why I'm doing this.>
Mafuyu: (My own feelings...)
Mafuyu: (Speaking of which, they were saying that Marionette has the most views out of any N25 song.)
Ena: <But I get that your mind and feelings won't get better that quickly, so I started with that site I sent you.>
Ena: <That's about all I wanted to tell you. How you want to use that site is up to you.>
Mafuyu: It's up to me...?
Mafuyu: ...
Mafuyu: <Thank you.>
