MC: "Aw, thanks Sayori. I missed you guys too. How have things been in the literature club?" Natsuki: "Well, we've been trying to come up with some new ideas for club activities. We could really use your input." Yuri: "Yes, your perspective is always appreciated, MC. We value your contributions to our discussions." MC: "I'd be happy to help out with brainstorming ideas.
