"First time! Well, we have to make a good impression then don't we, Akaya~?" Hokuto chimed in, completely uninvited to the conversation. She had overheard just the last bit of it and couldn't resist pushing in. After all, it was rather cute, this interaction between the baby of the band and his date (maybe?) She threw her arm affectionately over Akaya's shoulders and grinned.

"Perfect timing, like usual," Akaya said with a snort. Uh oh...a little sore about her and Nami skipping out on the repairs this afternoon?

"Of course. We should be backstage already. Unless you boys want another minute?" Hokuto winked at the awkward looking cutie.
