the next day, aiga lazily walks up to the band room, ready to practice right away, considering his band has just formed...

...

... or that's what he wanted to do until a relatively long line showed up.

"GAH! what the fuck..? where did all of these people come from?" aiga was stunned, he then walked up to someone, confused.

"hey, why are you outside of the band room? what's this about?"

"you're aiga right? the flyers share how your auditions are open?"

"auditions..? OH right, my band. can you wait like, i dunno, 10 minutes? maybe 15? i need to get the room ready AND contact my friend. okaythanksbye!"

aiga then went inside of the band room, calling houi in a panic.

"DUDE PLEASE COME TO THE FUCKING BAND ROOM RIGHT NOW."

"what's wrong?"

"I CAN'T EXPLAIN IT BUT IT'S CHAOTIC??"

"i'm on my way, aiga." houi then hung up the phone, rushing to the band room to help his friend.

『★』

fubuki headed to the rooftop, crashing onto the bench.

"that aiga guy is trying to start a band, and he's recruiting members! you wanted to start a band, right?"

he's then reminded of the flier he saw and took, still conflicted whether or not he's ready to be in a band.

"well yeah, but do i really want to? i mean shu told me to follow my dreams but.. whatever, i'll give it some thought i guess."

fubuki then takes his phone out, dialing shu's number.

"fubuki? why are you calling me right now?"

"i just wanted your thoughts on something. there's this one classmate of mine who's starting this band and i really don't know if i should join."

"well do you like playing the guitar? do you have fun playing the guitar with others?"

"yeah, i do have fun playing the guitar."

"then i suggest you give it a shot, it's not worth passing up on an opportunity like this."

"yeah but, i don't know if suoh wants to do this with me. if i join aiga's band, i would just be leaving suoh alone and you know how much suoh means to me."

"if that's the case, then maybe talk to him about it. he'll understand."

"you're right, thanks shu."

"anytime."

fubuki then hung up the phone, letting out a huge sigh.

"'not worth passing up an opportunity like this, huh?' how funny."

『★』

"your bass skills aren't good, next!"

"you do COUNTRY? we do rock here, next!"

"boring, next!"

"pass."

"pass."

"PASS."

soon enough, aiga and houi went through all of the auditions, disappointed with what they saw. none of the auditions were what aiga had envisioned. everyone was too "average". he wanted something unique, his band to be a sore thumb in a good way. sticking out is what he wanted and unfortunately did not get.

"man, none of them were that good! whatever, let's just practice more houi! maybe we can do a street performance together to recruit members there."

"sounds like a good idea. i like that."

"i can ask naru and nika for posters and then we'll finally have a proper band in no time!"

determination filled aiga's eyes as he strummed his guitar, trying to learn a song he liked. he was motivated to finally get his band in motion, and soon!

after all, he wants to have the best band around.
