So... June already, eh? I never thought I would get to see this month again so soon.

[A pause, as he struggles about what to say next.]

There's still no trace of Haruki, right? ... Oi, Minato, do you have some time?

By the way, I was wondering, are there any festivals or something celebrated here during the summer?

I know we are all from different worlds and all, and that with the Malnosso it's not easy to have something like that, but I was thinking maybe we could try to organize something? Get our minds to have some fun and relax a bit, it could be something simple with small games or something. Anyone else up for it?

[Action]

[Keiichi will be seen in his daily routine around. Going to the forest in early morning and not returning to be seen until lunch time after which he will be around the village or at the SOS Headquarters, sorely missing a certain God complexed individual.

Also, if you're a small lying child that can throw people flying long distances afar... Keiichi is out to hunt you down. He has given you enough time to calm down, girl, it's time to talk.]

It's a wonderful idea, Keiichi. We should propose ideas at tomorrow's meeting. I think it would cheer him up when he comes back to see his brigade working hard, and then he can easily take the reins from Rena and we'll just continue from there.

Or he will get angry thinking about how the world keeps rolling without him around and kicks all of us out of the Brigade for a few days.

I'm willing to take the risk thought. Better show him that he is an influence than to show dependency, don't you think?

Nah, I think he'd be proud, but you're totally right! Let's do this!

Okay!

Usagi, could you make a list of things that a festival would need? I'll try to make a list of possible festivals to hold so we can present the idea at the meeting. If we just say "let's hold a festival" it would be too vague, we should have at least some idea of what we want to do, right?

Mm, all right! You can count on me, Keiichi! You might want to check out the library and see if other cultures have festivals around now, too, see if we can combine a couple, make it spectacular!

Great idea! After all even if there's a vast majority of Japanese people around there are many who are from other places and even from worlds that have no Japan at all. A just Japanese festival would have little meaning if others can't enjoy it to its fullest.

At worst case we can just make a generic summer festival. I'll also see what things can be done at the festival to make it enjoyable! Fireworks are a must, obviously, and catch-the-fish games!

Oh! Yes! Catch-the-fish games are a must, and, of course, lots of food stands! [lots and lots of food stands, o'course]

That's right, there's someone who gives cooking lessons, right? Maybe we could organize even a cooking competition and the people who are studying could present dishes to show their progress or something. I'm sure we could get enough people for that.

That's a wonderful idea, and I bet Makoto would fall head-over-heels for it! You're an absolute genius, Keiichi!

Festivals also need music! We'll have to hunt down some musicians here, too.

Makoto?

[Excuse him, he just know there's someone giving lessons, never got the name of who it was.]

I remember hearing someone trying to gather musicians for a concert or something. We could contact them so they did it at the festival!

She gives the cooking lessons, and happens to be a good friend of mine from home.

Mm! All right. They shouldn't be too hard to get a hold of, then! I hope they are still here in Luceti.

She is? Then you could comment the idea to her, right?

I hope so too. It's a pity that singing android Haruki had is around anymore, but I'm sure we can work around something. Didn't he say he had family or something here?

You bet! I'll talk to her about it today!

I thought he did! Sounds like more asking around to me!

Awesome!

With some luck his family will be joining the other musicians or something. That would save up time.

[Hums while thinking a bit.] You think a month for preparations would be okay? I'm getting some suggestions as we talk and someone mentioned Obon and was willing to do the explanations for those who aren't Japanese.

Oh, I hope so!

A month? I think that sounds good! We should get stuff written out on the write board in the brigade building, keep track of stuff and all that jazz.

Yeah... Well, first we have to see if they will want to do it.

[Maybe he's getting a bit ahead of himself. But it's a fun idea and he needs something to distract himself a bit at the moment.]

If they want we have to distribute the tasks and all. Uhm... We would need to build stands, right?

I'm sure they will! [if they aren't then Usagi will whine till they are]

We might still have a few stands left from our last festival, but I have no idea where Haruki would have put them.

[It's good that Usagi agrees with him, him whining wouldn't have the same effect.]

So we have to search for them? Hah, that almost sounds like a quest or a mission from a game. "Find the stands of the last festival and you get a prize".

Doesn't sound like a very fun game to me!

Yeah, the prize would better be an awesome one or I wouldn't bother with that quest. Unless it's obligatory to continue the game or something.

[But then he might just drop the game altogether.]

Still I find fun to have to find something Haruki hid somewhere, though maybe he didn't even hid them and just stored them in his house. I'll have to ask Rena.

You know, he might have done that. Definitely check with Rena!

Does his house have space for it, thought? Anyway, even if we find them maybe we should make some new ones, there's more people now than when that one was held, right?

A lot more people actually. I bet it wouldn't take too long to make more, though.

[Sorry, Usagi, that's a too easy one to not tease about.]

Make more, what? People or stands? What kind of festival are you thinking of, girl?

[squeak! sputter!]

Wh-what kind--You jerk! Don't you! Arrgh! Stands!
