“And how about you, Ruby? Want to give it a shot too?” You turn to the purplish redhead.
“Are you talking to me, Johnny?” Ruby is caught by surprise.
“Yeah, I don’t know another Ruby! You said you play the violin, so why not? We’re going to hold auditions anyway.” You raise an eyebrow.
“This is a little hasty, isn’t it?” Ruby gives herself some air with the palm of her hand. She’s nervous.
“<span class="mu-i">...Heh.</span>” Ajna’s trembling smug smile is calling out the redhead for her cowardice. She’s looking down on Ruby! This fidgeting menace has her bad side!
“You have nothing to lose, and I believe in you too!” You point out.
“You’re right! There’s no reason for me to be overwrought if I try my very best!” Ruby really likes stealing your catchphrase, huh? You’ll ask for royalties. “I don’t know if I’m good enough, but I’d be worse if I didn’t try.”
“Exactly!” You smile.
“Y-Y-Yeah, y-you should try.” Ajna agrees that this is the best course of action.
“I’ll bring Debbie for the audition then!” It's all coming together. You’re ready for some recruitment.
“Now! I must rent a violin! I’ll be back in a jiffy!” Ruby hastily takes her leave without letting either of you give a word before her parting.
You forgot that Ruby tends to do that…
“Or maybe I’ll bring Debbie here later…” You might want to recruit more people still. “Ajna, do you want some time to practice?”
“Y-Y-Y-Yes!” Ajna vibrates!
“You don’t mind if I bring more people here?” You feel that you can’t stop recruitment here...
“I-I don’t a-as l-long as they aren’t strangers...” Ajna is doing well, but not that well.
“I’ll keep that in mind. I’ll text Ruby to come back to your apartment to practice too…” You pull your phone out and shoot her a message through Chat-Now! “I’ll be back in a couple of hours, so take it easy, Ajna!”
The fidgeting menace nods.
As you scroll down the names in your phone, the little bulb in your head shines! You have an idea about who to recruit!
