Sonic x Bang dream

Sonic's band story with Afterglow pt 6

After practice in the studio lobby:

Tomoe: I know we're all excited, and practice is very important, but we should probably work You the details of our set, too.
Moca: Sounds boring. I'll leave you kids to it.
Himari: No you won't! This is something we all need to discuss together.
Sonic: I guess.
Tomoe: Looking at this lineup, there are gonna some fairly well known bands performing with us.
Sonic: Really.
Tomoe: Yeah, like these guys here. There are rumors they're about to start their major debut soon.
Tsugumi: That's amazing... I bet they're all really talented performers, too. I wonder if I'll be okay...
Moca: Tsugu, you're worrying too much.
Ran: The event may change, the event may be new, but we'll always be performing the same as always.
Sonic: She's right. Tsugumi, you'll do fine. After all that practice, you've gotten better, I know it.
Tsugumi didn't say anything.
Tomoe: Anyway, about our set list for the show...
Tsugumi: (Wow... Everyone's talking through all the details already... I have to try not to get left behind... But I'm not as good a performer as the others... I can't even bring everyone together like Himari-chan does... What exactly can I do...?)
Sonic: Tsugumi? Hello? Tsugumi?
Tsugumi: Ah?! I-I'm sorry! Was I daydreaming?
Moca: Yup. You were more out of it than me.
Ran: You must be tired, Tsugumi. We don't have to do this today. We can pick it up again-
Tsugumi: I-I'm fine! I'm really fine, honestly! Hehe, I'm sorry. I was just thinking to myself, that's all. Come on, let's go through the set list!
Sonic: (Tsugumi... you don't need to push yourself too hard.)
Ran: If you're sure. So, for the second and third songs, I was thinking...

Few minutes later:
Tomoe: Alright, we've decided on the set list, then. Next rehearsal, we'll go through all the songs and see how it all comes together.
Ran: Okay. Himari, don't forget to bring the details for our contact at Girl Jam.
Himari: Ah... I had completely forgotten...
Moca: What a great leader you are, Hii-chan.
Tomoe: Moca.
Sonic: That was harsh.
Moca: Sorry.
Tomoe: Don't get so down, Himari. We still have plenty of time to send back our reply. Just let us know if we can help, okay?
Himari: Uuu, thank you...
Moca: Hey, I heard that big record companies send people to Girl Jam, y'know. Some bands even get scouted right then and there.
Tomoe: Now that you mention it, I think I saw some industry types around last time I was there.
Himari: Fufu, so you're saying we might get scouted too? You kids, you've got just the sound we're looking for. "Wanna sign up?", that kinda thing?!
Tomoe: Y-you sure bounced back quick, Himari...
Himari: And then, and then! We make our major debut and start our new super rich and famous future!
Sonic: Huh?
Ran: Our future...
Tomoe: Haha. that's probably going a little far, Himari. I doubt that's all happen from one show.
Himari: Really? You never know, though! This event might be the start of something huge. We might look back on it from our giant mansions one day.
Sonic: Mansions?
Tomoe: One day... I've never really thought about where we'll end up with all of this.
Ran: ...
Tomoe: I guess s big break isn't out of the question. Haha.
Ran: I want us to be like this. The five of us, in our band. I'm not interested in making it big.
Sonic: What about me?
Ran: You're a guy. You can't join our band.
Sonic: Oh, right. I forgot.
Tomoe: I think I agree. As long as the five of us-
Sonic: Six.
Tomoe: Six of us are together, I want us to stay just the way we are.
Himari: Fufu. I agree too, you know! I mean, it would be nice to be super famous, but the most important thing is being here with you guys!
Tsugumi: I think so too!
Ran: I just want to focus on what's next. The event. No talk of debuts, or the future...
Moca: Yup. I wanna focus on literally right now. We're having fun, and that's fine by me, hehe. Isn't that right, Ran?
Ran: Not what I said.
Moca: Hehehe.
Tomoe: (Moca really is good at handling Ran. It was stupid of me to talk about the future like that. You have all these friends around you, bonds 10 years strong, even our new friend we met a couple weeks ago and still...)
