Love Live!: SHOWTIME [PART 7]

DIAMOND FORGING:

*THAT NIGHT*

*KASUMI'S ROOM - NAKASU RESIDENCE - EDOGAWA - TOKYO*

KASUMI: *Inhale* *Exhale* "Ahhh, I feel nice and warm all over. Yoga sure does feel great."

SHIZUKU: "You could say that again. I never expected to get so into it."

KASUMI: "I've become more flexible and toned than ever since starting yoga. It's awesome!"

SHIZUKU: *Giggle* "Aren't you going to comment on how you're getting even cuter than ever before?"

KASUMI: "WELL, if you insist! I'm getting cuter and cuter than ever before!"

SHIZUKU: *Laugh* "You really have gotten cuter, though, Kasumi."

KASUMI: "But of COURSE! I'm the cutest cutie-pie around, and I became a school idol because I wanted to become even cuter!
I mean, the dazzling school idol Kasumi Nakasu's greatest strength is her cuteness!
That, and... I've actually got one other super-duper secret weapon up my sleeve."

SHIZUKU: "Hm? And what might that be? I've never heard you mention it before."

KASUMI: "Do you wanna know?"

SHIZUKU: "I do!"

KASUMI: "Ehehe! Oh, geez, whatever shall I do?"

...

*LAST MAY*

*SCHOOL IDOL CLUBROOM - NIJIGASAKI HIGH SCHOOL - ODAIBA - TOKYO*

AKI: "Thanks for being so patient, Kasumi. I've finished up your song."

KASUMI: "You have?!"

AKI: "Yep, these are pretty good lyrics you've come up with. It helped making a composition go easy. Though fine-tuning took a while so I'm sorry about that."
