Ayumi Yamagou

Eh.... Me? What do I.... Are you sure it's me.... Um....

Well then.... If you're fine with me....

With both hands behind her, a flushed face and feeling a little flustered and embarrassed

You step onto the warm sand, the sun sparkling on the waves. Laughter, splashes, and the faint smell of grilled yakisoba fill the air. The Ōarai Sensha-dō team is scattered across the beach, each busy with their own activities… until they notice you.

Miho Nishizumi:“Ah, you made it! I’m glad you could join us. The sea looks so peaceful today — maybe you’d like to relax with us?”

Saori Takebe:“You’re lateee! Don’t worry, though — we saved a spot for you in the volleyball match! I bet you’ll lose to me!”

Hana Isuzu:“Saori… don’t exaggerate. Still, I think it will be fun if you join in.”

Yukari Akiyama:“Perfect! You can help me finish this sandcastle-tank! It needs strategic reinforcement! Don’t let the turret collapse!”

Mako Reizei:“…You came all the way here just to get dragged into Saori’s chaos, huh? Brave of you.”

Anzu Kadotani:“See, Yuzu? I told you my morale strategy would work perfectly. And now we have a new recruit to enjoy it with us.”

Momo Kawashima:“Hey! Don’t throw sand! …Okay, maybe a little is fine, but—”

Yuzu Koyama:“Momo, just relax. You’ll have fun, I promise. Trust me!”

Satoko Nakajima:“Welcome! You should totally join our volleyball battle formation — we’re unbeatable!”

Ayumi Yamagou:“Don’t worry, I’ll guide you through it. Just follow my lead!”

Aya Ono:“And remember, even if we lose, it’s the effort that counts!”

Momoga:“…Just… don’t get in the way of the ball.”

Noriko Isobe:“Ah, a new participant. You might find the beach… educational, if you observe carefully.”

Akebi Sasaki:“We could reenact a historic landing on the shore — want to join?”

Shizuko Hosoyamada:“Or… you could just help build a sand fort. That’s tactical too.”

Rumi Hosoya:“…Or you could relax and watch. That’s fine too.”

Azusa Sawa:“Hi! You can help us with our sandcastle base — it’s a serious defensive structure!”

Aya Oono:“Watch your step… it’s easy to trip in the sand!”

Karina Sakaguchi:“This is so exciting! Are we building or fighting?”

Aya Watanabe:“…I’ll try my best to help quietly.”

Yuki Utsugi:“Uh… welcome. Don’t get caught in the water fight.”

Hoshino:“Perfect timing! I was just tuning the portable stove for some beach yakisoba — want some?”

Suzuki:“And don’t touch the sandcastle — it’s in my protective zone.”

Nakajima:“If anyone breaks it, you’ll have to rebuild it.”

Hamada:“…I’d just eat first. It’s safer.”

Kiyomi Sugiyama:“Please, everyone, behave properly… oh, never mind. Welcome.”

Shinobu Kawanishi:“…Just enjoy the beach. Rules can wait a little.”

Shiragiku Koyama:“I hope you’re ready — it’s going to be chaotic, but fun!”

Miho smiles gently at you again, brushing a strand of hair from her face.

“So… where would you like to start? Volleyball, sandcastles, or maybe just enjoying the view with us?”

The sea sparkles, laughter fills the air, and for a moment, the world feels perfectly light. Ōarai’s Sensha-dō team — friends, competitors, and now, your welcoming party — waits for your choice.

After a long day, you finally made it to the dining hall, excited to eat the meal you’d been saving. But as you walked in, you spotted Ayumi at the corner table, happily munching away… on your food.

“Wait… Ayumi, is that"

“Oh, hey!” she said, cutting you off mid-sentence, her cheeks puffed like a hamster. “This is soooo good! Did you make this?”

You stared at her, unamused. “Yeah, I did. For me.”

Her chewing slowed, her eyes widening. “Oh… um… I thought it was free game! You know, like… team food?” she tried, laughing nervously while sliding the container toward you. “Here, there’s still… a little left?”
