"rui? you with me?" nene asked gently, retracting her hand as she held it up. "how many fingers am i holding up?"
she's got one hand up, so it has to be like... one through five. is it three? no, four. no, it's─it's three, isn't it?
"...three?" he mumbled, wiping at his eyes. "i can't... i can't see."
or, rui's been staying up too late. nene looms over him.

"you're so warm..." he giggled lazily, wrapping his arms around her. "you're making me sleepy..."
an raised an eyebrow. "akito? hey, talk to me." she gently pulled him around, watching his eyes droop. "you're pale..."
"toya..."
toya? is he fucking insane?
"n-no," an coughed awkwardly, stepping back anxiously. "it's─it's me, an."
he shoved his head into the crook of her neck. "toya..." he sang weakly, swaying slightly side to side. "toya, toya, toya..."
or, delirious from fever, akito thinks an is toya. the fuck's she supposed to do now? play along?

Summary
she was utterly trapped. in her own mind, kanade told herself. she did this to herself. it's not honami's fault─or mizuki's, or ena's, or mafuyu's.
it was her own decision. why was she swallowing away in self-pity when she could go and unlock the door?
because there was no reason to. she wasn't wanted out, she wasn't wanted in. she's stuck in a loop of her never ending cycle of lies her mind has made up.
there was something, someone, but was it too much to ask for?
or, kanade trapped herself in her room for grieving. mafuyu knows it's taken a toll. she needs help. and she's there to do so.

"i-i'm sorry!" toya cried, scratching at the door. "i'm s-so, so sorry! i broke your door..." a sob caught in his throat, a loud crash hitting the wood, leaving him a heaping, crying mess.
"hey, hey." tsukasa kicked at the side of the door, pushing in the corner. "i'll get you out of there, okay? just breathe."
toya scratched his nails against the door. "i c-can't... it's too loud..." he grabbed at the broken doorknob. "too loud..."
or, guilt catches up to you quickly, and toya's mind starts to blur. tsukasa needs to get him out to help like the big brother he is.

an came running back to the spot, sliding a box of tissues towards them. "is he okay, dad?"
"he'll be alright, an. just broke his nose, only a minor break too. don't worry, it's not your fault." he bunched up a ball of tissues into his hand. "right, akito? are you feeling better already?"
"y-yeah!" his smile was wobbly, but it was still shining. "i'll be okay, an! don't worry!"
or, young an's idea backfired on her new trampoline, but she's also there to save the day!

he's somewhere. somewhere in my mind, somewhere watching over me.
he should be sitting with me, or even alone. i should have been the one to go. he should have shared it with me.
and i'm trying so hard to hold on. i'm trying my best. like he always said i should do.
or, a certain someone's death plagues over toya. he can't just sit in silence anymore; so even without their fourth member, an and kohane are still there to help (and cookies)!

when was she on the ground? why does everything look so blurry? what was going on?
a voice felt so far away, yet the figure stood beside her, crouched in front of her. "nene, can you hear me?" it was fuzzy, but she swallowed thickly and nodded anyway. "just breathe, i got you."
"i'm sorry..." she mumbled, her mouth drying up. her ears were ringing like a church bell, making her double over on her knees. "i-i'm so sorry, rui, i─"
"breathe, just listen to my voice, okay?" rui cooed as he ran a shaky hand through her hair, taking off her headband. "it's okay, it's okay."
or, nene's first attempt at becoming an actress. when did her stage fright become this bad?

Summary
ena wiped her eyes, picking up one of the canvases on the floor. it was the starting of the scenery of a theme park the group was at one day, where ena took a photo. the lights were nice and bright through the darkness, and all four of them were present.
it was beautiful, yet it had a hole right through the center of it. mizuki had one in their heart now too. for their sake. for ena's sake.
"it was all for nothing, wasn't it, mizuki?"
or, ena's art is too feeling-ish. she needs to express her feelings another way, rather than her painting. that's what she thinks, until mizuki is there to lend the hand she really needs.

but her eye kept catching on the photos. the polaroid photos left on the dresser, pictures honami and ichika had been taking at practice, their outings, everything to share a memory.
should she take them to the hospital? tsukasa would be all over them. the other three would love them, though. (if tsukasa didn't steal them from their hands.)
there was one signed september 30th at the bottom. their first practice back together as friends.
as a band, when saki felt better.
she wants nothing more than to be friends, partners. stay partners and not abandon each other again.
or, shiho just wants to keep leo/need together forever again. even through some mishaps.

a tight pair of arms grasped onto him, pulling him into the hug of a lifetime. he melted right into it.
"i thought you said you'd never leave." toya's soothing voice hit his ears. "please... don't leave me ever again, akito. please."
when had tsukasa left them alone? when had toya opened the door? when was the last time akito had a hug like this?
"i won't. never." akito put his hands into the split coloured hair, hanging onto him as if toya would be the one to leave. "i was stupid to leave. i'm so, so sorry, partner."
"teach me, because i love you. and i never want to leave again."
or, akito made a stupid decision to leave his talent behind. toya wanted nothing more than for him to come back.

"mafuyu?" emu suddenly piped up, stopping with her hand interlocked with the girl's. "are you okay? you don't look super duper okay again!"
"i'm okay, emu, just thinking." she mumbled, rubbing her arm with her free hand and throwing her bag over her shoulder. "just... why did you come find me? why didn't you leave the sound alone?"
emu paused, before her eyes scrunched up. "i... the others were worried! i was too! and─and i'm glad i was! i wouldn't have found you! i want to help you!"
she wants to help... me?
they said no one was coming.
no one would save me.
but, i guess, the best things in life come from the most unexpected things. or people.
or, emu to the rescue, like she always does! but, is it embarrassing to feel something more to someone who's your complete opposite?

"i'm good with one line then i'll remember it. nene, can you─"
"shut it! just, just let us take care of you, okay?" nene sighed, popping herself up onto the stage. "you need sleep. how long has it been since you had a proper rest?"
"uh..." racking his brain, he swayed gently side to side, his knees shaking. he felt nene's hands latch onto him, but he was too tired to ask her to let go.
"i haven't slept in days... but, who's counting, really..? i've been keeping up fine."
"rui!"
or, rui's late nights have been taking worse tolls on him. he needs the rest that he ultimately gets, even if it's in the worse way possible.

akito propped himself onto his elbows shakily, sitting up to lean into toya's hug. "t-this is so embarrassing..." he let his head fall onto his partner's shoulder. "just, you really don't want to leave me alone? even when i'm like t-this?"
"i want to help you, akito. always."
"...are you sure?"
"positive."
he bit his lip harshly, turning his head away. he hiccuped into his hand, tears running gently down his cheeks.
"i-i feel so vulnerable." he mumbled, putting a hand to his mouth. "i don't feel like i deserve to be taken care of. but, i want your comfort, so bad."
"and i'm here to do that." toya pushed himself a bit closer, running a hand over his spine. "always."
or, akito ultimately gets sick on toya, though toya doesn't panic. he's just there for him, always.

toya gasped for air, almost choking on water and bile, struggling to get upright.
"you dumbass, akito!" an yelled, pulling on toya's arms up to get him to sit up. "he's gonna fucking choke on water! i told you to lay him down on his stomach not his back! he almost drowned!"
he retched thick water onto the sand, pulling at the collar of his gray shirt. he gripped onto the sand harshly, unable to take a healthy breath in with the water in his lungs and coming out of his mouth in waves of acidic sick.
"i didn't know he'd regain consciousness that fast!" akito argued back through his whispers of reassurance, which went in ear and out the other quite quickly as he pat his back. "fuckin'─just help me with him? please?"
or, a result of not knowing how to swim, toya almost drowns. yet, through a little argumentation, the other three are there to help him.

"your head isn't bad, it's just a scrap from the brick, that's all. cut a bit of skin, but it's fine." she wiped away the last of the blood, shifting his hair back to the way it was. the makeshift bandages were holding on fine. "otherwise, are you okay?"
he swallowed thickly. "just... i angered akito. i don't know... i want to be his partner, but... i can't stray from classical music."
"you're a classical music player?" she asked, shoving all the supplies back into her jacket pockets. "that's really cool!"
"not too much fun, though." he sighed, picking at the skin around his fingers. "i'd take singing over playing piano or violin any day."
kohane's lips curled upwards, her eyes shining more as her glasses were still off to the side. "and your voice is so nice too! you're a man of many talents."
or, after toya's news makes akito burst, kohane's there to help toya from injuries. (emotional, and physical.)

"we don't want you to be hurt again, honami." ichika nestled her head in the girl's shoulder. "always."

"tsukasa, i don't want you hurt─"
"the world's greatest star can handle anything, rui." he usually said that with a big laugh or a cheesy smile, but the glimmer of distained fear in his eyes made rui draw back.
rui held out his hand to his shoulder again, but tsukasa jumped back. "d-don't touch me! please..."
he wiped his eyes, hanging his head down. "i'm so stupid, y'know? a star like me should not be acting like this. i really don't deserve your comfort, rui..."
or, tsukasa's determination for once doesn't overcome his fear. he doesn't want to get hurt, and doesn't want to hurt rui emotionally.

tsukasa let himself flop down on the couch again, eyeing his project. he'd have to abandon it for now. family comes first.
"huh...?"
oh, did he say that out loud?
"you consider me as... family?" toya questioned, his gaze anywhere but tsukasa's visage.
tsukasa stood still, hovering over top of the boy who sunk into the couch cushions anxiously. "yeah, of course i do. we both do."
he took a seat beside toya, concern etched across his face. "you don't have to explain right now... but just know we're here for you. we'll take care of you."
