The Next Day...

Saturday...

Nozaki's Apartment...

Sakura: ...

Mikoshiba: ...

Seo: ...

Hori: ...

Wakamatsu: ...

Sakura, Mikoshiba, Seo, Hori & Wakamatsu: (SO TIRED...!)

Miyako: Again, thank you all for coming. We really appreciate it.

Nozaki: Yeah. Thanks, guys.

Mikoshiba & Hori: (SOUND MORE APPRECIATIVE, NOZAKI!!!!!)

Seo: So, you gonna tell us what this is all about, Nozaki?

Nozaki: We're still waiting on two more people.

The front door opens.

Miyamae: We're here.

Nozaki: Ken!

Miyako: Mr. Maeno. Glad you could make it on such short notice.

Mikoshiba, Seo, Hori & Wakamatsu: (Short notice?!)

Mikoshiba: (Who sends a text at midnight, and in the middle of a game run?!)

Seo: (Who sends a text at midnight, and expects it to be read?!)

Wakamatsu: (Well... it is to help out Nozaki, so I guess this'll be worth it.)

Hori: (I wonder what's more sad, the midnight text or the fact we all actually showed up.)

Miyamae: Sorry we're late. We would've been here much, MUCH sooner if Maeno hadn't gotten himself lost!

Maeno: Heh heh. My bad, everyone.

Sakura: (Does he even know where any of his artists live?)

Maeno: But, you'll be happy to know my lost state made for a great article on my blog.

Nozaki & Miyamae: (Someone shoot him...)

Hori: (Now that I think about it, this is quite a turnout. I know it's not the first time he's called his assistants together, but for him to call all his model characters here too, this must be BIG.)

Miyako: I'll get you all something to drink. Then, we'll explain why you're all here today.

Sakura: Oh, thank you, Miyako.

Seo: Yeah, thanks.

Wakamatsu: (WAIT A MINUTE...!)

Hori: (THIS IS NOZAKI'S APARTMENT...!)

Mikoshiba: (SO, WHY IS SHE SERVING US...?!)

Mikoshiba, Hori and Wakamatsu glare at Nozaki as he notices them looking in his direction.

Nozaki: (Whatever happened, I'm pretty sure I'm innocent...)

A Few Minutes Later...

Wakamatsu: A joint manga?

Miyako: That's right.

Mikoshiba: That's a pretty big deal.

Sakura: (So, that's why they were together... Thank goodness, I can sleep well again...)

Hori: (He must be planning on introducing his cast and co-workers to Miyako. That's why we're here. But, that would also mean...)

He turns to Sakura, Mikoshiba, Seo & Waka.
