Ciao a tutti! For today I would say that I end the day by posting days 10 and 11 that have been completed. For this time I greet you in the intro rather than in the outro, so I wish you a good continuation of the day / evening and see you tomorrow. Saluti!

Bandtober : Day 10 (Band Practice)

[A Saturday afternoon - Ayaka's House]

• Mirai: "Of course, every time I come here, I am always amazed by the immensity of this house, it almost feels like Koneko's."
• Oriko: "With a big difference between the two, this is ancient and traditional."
• Honami: "You two never stop teasing each other, no matter where we have rehearsals, whether it's here or at the CiRCLE you're always arguing about something."
• Lucia: "Come on, Honami, there's no need to be so hard on them."
• Ayaka: "Kara is right, leave them alone, rather what did you think about the song?"
• Lucia: "Not bad, but the tempo of this piece seemed too slow to me, maybe we should speed it up a bit? What are you saying, leader?"
• Honami: "Yes, it would be better, so Mirai too could make some impact with a more within her reach."
• Ayaka: "It might actually work. Hey, Mirai-chan, would you like to try something?"
• Mirai: "What is it about?"
• Ayaka: "We want to pick up on the second bar and we would like to see the rhythm you take if we change a few pitches."
• Miria: "I'm in it! I still have a lot of energy!"
• Oriko: "Imagine if you got tired..."
• Ayaka: "Okay, then let's resume rehearsals."

[A few minutes later]

• Oriko: "Not bad."
• Honami: "You were right, Lucia, we just needed something like that."
• Lucia: "You can feel all the power of Mirai's energy, as well as the impact it can give you when you listen to it."
• Mirai: "Can I say it was a blast?! I had a blast and I didn't think it was so different from before!"
• Oriko: "I felt it too, it was interesting, I admit."
• Ayaka: "So we will definitely impress with this, hoping that people like my voice..."
• Honami: "Still with this story? I already told you that you don't have to worry, if Marina-san asked us to attend their events with the other bands, there must be a reason, right?"
• Ayaka: "I know, I just don't feel safe, what if we get it wrong something?"
• Lucia: "We try so hard also for this reason, but I can understand your thoughts, I also happen to feel helpless during concerts, even if I don't show it."
• Mirai: "I like your voice so much, Tan-chan-senpai! You don't have to get down!"
• Oriko: "I agree with Doggo-chan. You have a unique voice that somehow manages to touch the right chords in someone's soul."
• Honami: "See? All of us, and not only, think it is so."
• Ayaka: "Girls... I just don't know what to tell you..."
• Lucia: "Could a group hug reassure you?"
• Ayaka: "Probably."
• Mirai: "Then let's all go on Tan-chan-senpai!"
• Ayaka: "Easy that you take me apart like this! But yes... thank you very much... I love you."
• Honami: "We love you too, cousin."

Bandtober : Day 11 (First Show)

[Debut Day - Entrance of the CiRCLE]

• Marina: "Well, everything is settled here, your instruments have already been placed on the stage. When you are ready, talk to the staff."
• Honami: "Thanks again, Tsukishima-san, without your help we wouldn't have succeeded in today's feat."
• Marina: "That's okay, it's always nice to see the souls of young girls like you burning with passion, it reminds me a lot when I was young. And anyway, call me Marina, there's no need to be so formal with me, the others girls from many bands do it."
• Honami: "I understand, then I'm going to see how my companions are doing, see you later... and thanks, Marina-san, for the opportunity."

(Finished talking to the woman, the young Takamine headed to backstage, where she noticed in the distance her cousin sitting in a corner, curled up on herself, with Lucia sitting on her heels stroking her back. In the other corner instead standing were the two newcomers talking, feeling the air around them almost electric, but she could understand: she too was feeling elated.)

• Honami: "Ayaka, is everything okay?"
• Ayaka: "I can't do it... The stress is too much to bear for me..."
• Lucia: "Come on, don't worry, everything will be fine. We have been training every day since we decided to do it."
• Ayaka: "But two weeks is just too short for such a concert like this!"
• Honami: "You have to be calm, we don't have that many songs in our repertoire, besides they are just covers... in practice you will only have to sing two songs out of three, since one is a duet of Lucia and me."

(She too squatted down and stroked her head, smiling faintly as she exchanged quick glances at her best friend, looking mildly at the familiar's flushed face and shining eyes on the verge of tears.)

• Lucia: "Come on, I'm sure that once you get on stage and start singing, you will lose track of space and time."
• Honami: "Then if I'm not mistaken we don't have who knows what audience, apart from our closest friends and Oriko's family, since we are holding this concert for her, as well as for ourselves to debut."
• Ayaka: "Right... if Mocacchin saw me with this face she would surely give me some strong pat on the back, without considering that I would worry Ako-chan and Rin-san if I went out in this pitiful state..."
• Lucia: "Don't say that. Being scared is normal, after all it's a huge step what you are, indeed, we are doing, but we are together and we will overcome this obstacle together."
• Ayaka: "Lucia... Honami... You're right, I can't keep running away, I have to be able to overcome my fears... I'm ready!"

(As she got help getting to her feet, Oriko and Mirai were facing each other on the other side, more or less.)

• Oriko: "What should I do if in the end my mother doesn't accept my decision? I... I don't want to part with you... I enjoy being with the senpai and spending every day discovering new things, now that there it's you too, the days have become more lively and I don't want this to end... "
• Mirai: "So take courage and show your mother what you're made of, don't let her take control of your life: show her you're a tough girl!"

(She went up to her and hugged her with her arms, once she saw the other turn her back to her, resting the chin on her friend's golden head who was amazed by the gesture.)

• Oriko: "Mirai?"
• Mirai: "You will also be a hothead and you will drive me out of my mind every time you provoke me, I wasn't even interested joining a band with you, yet the days spent with you and the senpai made me understand how funny it is. I am passionate about it and I would like our days to continue like this forever, but you must be there too, otherwise who could I let off steam with if you are not there?"
• Oriko: "You're such an idiot... Doggo-chan..."

(The young Wazawai squeezed each other's hands hard, laughing weakly with her and then loosening the embrace when they saw the older girls join them.)

• Honami: "I would say our time has come, are you ready?"

(All of them nodded at the same time, the leader did the same and walked with them towards the stage where the moment of glory and truth they had long awaited awaited them: they would be able to overcome that immense obstacle and finally become a band to all effects?)

[After the concert - under the CiRCLE stage]

• Ayaka: "Ah... It's finally over... I thought my heart was going to explode when the lights went down on me."
• Honami: "Well, we did everything we could, but it was an unexpected success... Of course all the members of Poppin'Party this time too, and not just them, started to have tears in their eyes when me and Lucia sang again Magnet ..."
• Lucia: "What can I say? We see that we are harmoniously in tune and we transmit the message better."
• Ayaka: "Actually she's not completely wrong... even if at that moment I felt excluded..."
• Honami: "It was just the first song, we gave you time to calm down and warm up the audience for the big show, as you may have noticed Kaoru herself was fascinated and speechless when you started singing."
• Ayaka:* "Did Kaoru-sama really have that reaction too? I practically heard Ako-chan scream all the time like crazy going to our rhythm... and how can I blame her? After all we sang Roselia's -HEROIC ADVENT- they kindly allowed us to use it... "
• Honami: "See? In the end it was all in your head."
• Lucia: "Let's just hope that with Rivers in the desert we were able to change the heart of Oriko's mother... I'm worried about her, in the end it was I who invited her to join us."
• Ayaka: "I also hope everything went well... She's talking to her mother right now..."
• Mirai: "I'm sure it was a success, tomorrow she will surely tell us everything, if you don't mind now I'm going to my brothers who are waiting for me. See you!"
• Lucia: "Well, I would say that we have done our duty. Let's go and get our merits, the others are waiting for us."

(Eventually, they learned that Oriko's mother understood the situation and accepted the fact that her daughter wanted to be part of the band, provided that, once she graduated, she would keep her oath to accept the combined marriage. So TIERGEIST started their career as musicians.)
