[With the passage of time, it is now autumn...]

Makoto: Isara-kun, Akehoshi-kun, sorry to have you two help me out.
Mao: Don’t sweat it, friends are supposed to help each other! Though I gotta say, I was a little surprised when you said you were making onigiri for everyone in the Tennis Club.
Subaru: Yeah yeah! I’ve never made so many onigiri in my entire life.
And done! Look, look, it’s you, Ukki~ ☆
Makoto: Oh, you made glasses out of the seaweed strips. Nice work!
Mao: I was wondering why you had gone so quiet — so you were concentrating on crafting your onigiri, huh. Did you make this yellow one too, Subaru?
Subaru: Yup! I added in a little curry powder to make a tennis ball onigiri~ ☆
But why’re we making them for the whole club, anyway? Do you guys have some sort of rule where the captain has to make onigiri for everyone?
Makoto: Nah, it’s just something I felt like doing of my own accord, since we’re gonna be doing some practise matches against another school later today.
I don’t really have many chances to act like a proper captain, so I thought it’d be nice if I could do something for the whole team.
Mao: Hey, what do you mean you don’t “act like a captain”~? Whenever something needs the student council’s approval, you’re always the one bringing it to us.
Makoto: Well, y’know, with paperwork like that, it’s a lot quicker to do it myself than to rely on someone else.
This is the last of them, right? Wrap it in aluminium foil, and... Alright! Now we just gotta stuff this backpack full of onigiri.
Mao: Yep. Subaru, pass the onigiri over.
Subaru: Gotcha~! Passing, passi~ng ♪
Mao: Woah, wait, are you gonna throw them?!
Subaru: Ahaha, just kidding ☆ I want Ukki~ to eat the Ukki~ onigiri, so I’ll stick it right on top — that way you’ll know for sure which one it is!
Makoto: Sure, thanks! If I gave this to someone else, they’d probably be really confused, anyway.
Okay, it’s about time to head out... See you guys!
Mao: See you!
Subaru: See ya~! Tennis Club, huh~? Ah, the essence of youth... ♪
Mao: Our Basketball Club has the essence of youth too, doesn’t it? Even though we don’t have practise today.
There’s leftover onigiri ingredients here, so I guess it’s time to make some breakfast.
Subaru: Ooh, so you’ll make some for me too? Thanks Sally~, I love you~ ☆
Mao: Ahaha, there you go, sweet-talking me.
Hokuto: ... I was wondering what the commotion was about — so it was coming from you guys.
Mao: Morning, Hokuto. We’re about to make breakfast; do you want some too?
Hokuto: Do you mind?
Mao: Not at all; there isn’t much of a difference in making food for one extra person anyway.
Subaru: That’s a shame, Hokke~ You missed Ukki~ by a few minutes.
We made a whole lotta onigiri together, and it was super fun~ ☆
Hokuto: A lot? What for?
Mao: The Tennis Club is having some practise matches at Yumenosaki against another school today, so Makoto wanted to give out onigiri to the members.
I’ve got no work until this evening, so maybe I’ll drop by to take a look. Himemiya’s been practising really hard in preparation for today’s matches, too.
Subaru: Nice idea, I’ll go too! Hokke~, come with us! Let’s go cheer the Yumenosaki Tennis Club on together ☆
Hokuto: Sorry, I’ve been called up by someone, so I won’t be free.
Subaru: Huh~ Called up? Didja do something bad? If you’re going to the staff room, then you’ll be able to watch the matches too, won’t you? C’mon, let’s go~
Hokuto: I’m being called to ES, not the school. And it’s Tenshouin-senpai who I’m meeting.
Mao: He wants you to go all the way to ES? If he needs something from you, can’t you talk right here in the dorms?
Hokuto: He didn’t say what it was about... But since he’s called me up, it’s likely to be about work.
Even if it isn’t, important matters are best discussed outside of Starmony Hall. You never know who might happen to overhear, after all.
... Well, on the flipside, it doesn’t mean places outside the dorm are any safer, either.
Mao: Mm? What’s that supposed to mean?
Hokuto: Lately, I’ve been getting the strange sensation that I’m being watched. In school, in the streets... Even in ES.
Whenever I feel it, I survey my surroundings, but I can’t identify its source.
Subaru: Wha?! That’s terrifying~! Shouldn’t you try getting exorcised or something?
Who do you even call for things like this? Natsume, maybe?
Mao: He’s a fortune-teller, so this is out of his area of expertise, isn’t it? If I had to pick someone, I think Hasumi-senpai would be better suited for this.
Subaru: Ooh, good point! Hasumin-senpai would take down any evil spirits like an Onmyouji. Evil spirits begone... ☆
Hokuto: Evil spirits, huh...
Mao: So what do you think? Wanna see how it goes with an exorcism? I mean, it couldn’t hurt to try.
Hokuto: ... No, I’ll pass. I’m still not sure it’s the work of a spirit, anyway. I have a feeling it’s just something I’m overlooking.
Besides, I don’t sense that anything is out to endanger me. I’ll be fine if I keep my guard up.
Mao: Alright. But don’t push yourself, ‘kay? If you need me to, I can just go meet Tenshouin-senpai in your stead.
Hokuto: I appreciate the sentiment, but since he called for me, it’s only right that I meet him myself.
Subaru: Hm~mm. You’re so responsible, Hokke~ What a good ol’ Mr. Responsible we’ve got here ♪
Hokuto: No, this is normal. You’re just irresponsible, Akehoshi. ... Hey, what’re you feeling around my jacket for? If you’re looking for coins, I don’t have any with me right now.
Subaru: Nope, what I’m looking for is~... There we go, konpeito!
I’ve gotten hooked on making my own unique onigiri, y’see~ So I’ll make a konpeito onigiri for you, Hokke~! ☆
Hokuto: No, don’t. The heat from the rice is going to melt the konpeito.
